the arrival of new babies to the delivery of new cars.Ive attended weddings，parties and religious celebrations in countries such as Argentina and Japan，and Ive noticed that gold the metal or the colour of itis always part of cultural events，traditions and celebrations.It makes me wonder：Why do people love gold?For some people，gold seems to be a status (地位) symbol.Indian businessman Datta Phuge loves gold so much that hes even bought a shirt made of gold at a cost of $250,000.Im not sure Id spend so much money on a shirt，would you？But Datta Phuge has his reason.He explains，“Some people want to own an Audi or a Mercedes.I choose gold.”For other people，gold is an investment.The price of gold generally increases over time and in European markets，it reached even $1,500 per ounce in 2011.And for many people，a family heirloom (传家宝) brings together status and investment.My mother has a gold bracelet (手镯) that was given to her by her grandmother who，in turn，inherited it from her own grandmother.Its quite a heavy piece and probably worth quite a lot of money.But its mental value is greater than its value in dollars.Its a beautiful object that holds many family memories.When the time comes，my mum will give the bracelet to me，and one day，Ill pass it on to the younger generation.Therefore，status and investment are good reasons to value gold.However，I think that the real reason why people love gold is that it can be made into beautiful objects.Think about Tutankhamens death mask.Have you ever seen anything so beautiful?People love gold because it holds their minds，their imaginations and，above all，their hearts.语篇解读不同文化背景的人们都喜爱黄金或金色的东西。它既是身份的象征，又可以作为投资的对象，更重要的是，它还承载着人们美好的想象和记忆。5The main idea of the first paragraph is that_.Athe author has traveled to many
