Do you agree or disagree? A job with more vacation time but a low salary is better than a job with a high salary but less vacation time.
Some people argue that to take a job with more leisure time would be better since it could provide people with more opportunities to talk with others (Um..this sure isn't the only thing people do during their 'leisure' time, is it? It's not actually wrong to cite talking with others, but this is your opening paragraph, which sets the scope of discussion for the entire essay. And if you mention specific points like 'talking with others', your reader would then expect you to elaborate on it. Is that what you intend to do?), which could lead to the improvement of individuals’ relationships. But in fact, I believe that a high salary, though sometimes with less vacation time, would be more beneficial.
To begin with, a high salary would be ideal for young adults. This is because youngsters, especially those who would soon establish their own families, are eager to make their lives more decent and comfortable. In China, a young male is always in great pressure to purchase a house or a car in order to get married, which is often the requirement put forward by his fiancee’s parents. Without a high salary, it is almost impossible for young people to afford an extremely expensive apartment in cities like Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou. (So does the merit of a high salary only apply to the young Chinese males in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou? You need to make some more general, decisive conclusion on the merit of a high salary after your example. If not, your conclusion is still only applicable to your example's case.)
Also, most of our young people have depended on our parents ('Your' young people have depended on 'your' parents? I'm a bit confused by who 'we' are in this paragraph..) for over 20 years and they have made great sacrifice to us in terms of time, energy and money. Thus, it is better for us to earn more money in order to afford our own lives as well as our parents' lives. One TV report once portrayed a young man who struggled in Shanghai. He was eager to live on his own without the help from his family. At the same time, he wanted to repay his parents' love by means like financial supports to them. But, he just did not earn a lot to achieve his goal.
It is true that receiving a high salary would be ideal. But at the same time it is also true that less vacation time brought about by a job with a high salary would have some negative effects. By that I mean, couples might divorce and families might be destroyed. According to a recent survey conducted among young adults, the primary cause of their divorces or just quarrels is the lack of personal communication, which often results from the busy work lives of both the husband and the wife.
Taking all factors into account, I am still convinced that a high salary is more essential, as people firstly need plenty of money to create a family for themselves. Besides, individuals need adequate money to support their old parents, too.
