A. To wait B. Have waited C. Having waited D. To have waited

Step4 Discussion /writing
Is money so important?
(Some people say that money is everything. What do you think of this opinion?)
Money is very important in some occasion. But that doesn’t mean it is everything. For example, when your hometown is flooded and you are trapped in the water, can you save yourself even if you have a lot of money with you? No! So, we should not regard money as everything.
(Great! But some people still think that money can bring them happiness. What do think of this?)
(I don’t agree with this.) Since money doesn’t mean everything, so it can’t bring happiness to us. For example, you have a lot of money but you haven’t a happy family, can’t you say that you are happy?
(So, we should have a correct attitude towards money)
Different people have different opinions about money.
Some believe that money is the source of happiness .With money they can buy everything in the world. /they consider money as everything. /Some people consider money as the most powerful and important thing in life. /In their eyes, money is the God who can bring them happiness, power and all that they desire. /money is the whole world and being rich is the only dream. /One can buy modern conveniences, new fashions and entertainments with money, which can make life more comfortable and colorful.
But others have an opposite idea. They think that money cannot buy everything such as it cannot buy love, friendship, or a longer life .What's more, money can be the root of evils. Many crimes are committed just because of the lust for money.
As far as money is concerned, my opinion is "you can't do anything without money, but money is not everything!” Indeed, we can lead more comfortable lives with lots of money, but, there are lots of things that we cannot get with money. /there are certain things that cannot be bought with money. A millionaire who suffered from serious censer was willing to buy his health at the expense of his whole property, but, as a result, he failed and soon died in despair. Many other things such as devoted friend ship, real honor etc. is invaluable and cannot be bought with money either. So money is far from omnipotent..
What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do more benefit. If not, you want money just for your own needs, you'll never be satisfied or happy.
Therefore, whether wealth can bring happiness depends on how one earns money and how he spends it .Only when wealth is acquired by means of honest labor and spent for the benefit of not only oneself but also his people and country, only then can money be the source of your happiness. /In a word, you should have money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.

Step1 Grammar Revision
名词性从句学习“三步法”:
第一分析句子结构;第二看从句中的语法功能(做主语、宾语或状语);第三句中需何意;第四看是否属特殊。
一、名词性从句是由if, whether, that和各种疑问句词where, when等充当连接词所引导的从句, 其功能同名词一样。
二、what与that在引导名词性从句时的区别:
what引导名词性从句时在从句中充当句子成分,如主语,宾语,表语,而that则不然,它在句子中只起连接作用。例如:
(1) What you said yesterday is right.
(2) That she is still alive is a puzzle.
在名词性从句中,what既引导该从句,又在其中作句子成分时,what常可转换成the thing(s)+that定语从句。
She told me what she had done .(宾语从句)
She told me the things that she had done.(定语从句)
她告诉我她做了什么。
三、宾语从句
(一)宾语从句就是在复合句中作宾语的名词性从句, 通常放在主句谓语动词(及物动词)或介词之后。宾语从句在句中作及物动词或介词(如except,but,besides等)的宾语。
I know nothing about her except that she lives next door. 我只知道她住在隔壁房间。
注:
(1)主句的谓语是make,find, think, consider, believe, feel等,且带有复合宾语时,可把宾语从句置于宾补之后,用it作形式宾语。
I find it necessary that we practice spoken English every day.
我发现每天练习英语口语是必要的。
(2)许多描述情感的形容词(happy,glad,afraid,pleased,sorry,surprised等),或表示确信无疑的形容词(certain,sure等)后可带宾语从句。
I’m afraid (that)we’ve sold out of tickets.
对不起,我们的票已经卖完了。
(3)在表思想和感觉的动词(believe,imagine,suppose,think,expect等)之后,可以把从句上的否定形式转移到这些谓语动词上来。
I don't believe she’ll arrive before 7. 我不相信她会在7点以前到达。
(二)、宾语从句谓语动词的时态。
(1) 若主句谓语动词为一般现在时和一般将来时,宾语从句的动词可根据句意用任何时态。
Will you tell me how you learned English well?告诉我你怎么学好英语的好么?
I think he’ ll be back in an hour.我想一小时后他会回来的。
(2)若主句谓语动词为过去时时,从句的动词需用跟过去有关的时态。
I thought they were having lessons我想他们正在上课。
She said she had done her homework她说她已做完作业。
(3)宾语从句表达客观真理,不论主句是什么时态,从句都用一般现在时。
The teacher told us light travels faster than sound老师告诉我们光的速度比声音快。
(三)以if(whether)引导的宾语从句。一般地,if和 whether引导宾语从句时可换用。
I don't know whether(if) you can help me.我不知道你是否能帮助我。
但下列情况一般用whether,不用if。
1)后面紧跟or not时。
Mary asked me whether or not she should come.玛丽问我她是否应该来。
2)介词之后时。
She was worried about whether she passed the exam她担心考试是否及格了。
3)与不定式连用时。
She is not sure whether to stay or not. 她不能确定是否留下。
4)宾语从句置于句首时。
Whether he lives there,I want to know. 我想知道她是否住在那儿。
四. 表语从句是在复合句中作表语的名词性从句, 放在系动词之后,一般结构是“主语+系动词+表语从句”。可以接表语从句的系动词有be, look, remain, seem等。引导表语从句的that常可省略。另外,常用的还有the reason why … is that … 和It is because …等结构。
1. 从属连词that(一般不省略为好),whether(不用if),as if(though)等引导的表语从句。
2. 连接代词what,which,who,whom,whose等引导的表语从句。
3. 连接副词when,where,how,why等引导的表语从句。
