Throughout his life，Socrates showed no interest in money.He was also not interested in material items.Socrates would allow groups of men to listen to him speak.And he would never take money from them.He always wore the same clothes whatever the season.Socrates argued that his life was better because he had no material wealth.He felt he enjoyed his food more.he said he was stronger and healthier because he was not affected by the weather.He believed happiness came not from having more but from wanting less.By the end of the fifth century BC.Athens was not a great city anymore.Politicians betrayed Athens.Socrates had made many people angry over the years.He had always expressed his opinions when he thought laws and policies were wrong.Athens had a new group of political leaders in power，who didnt want to hear Socrates comments about them.They thought Socrates had a bad influence on the young people of Athens.Socrates was also accused of not worshipping the right gods.Charges were brought against Socrates.The politicians wanted to condemn Socrates to death.Socrates friends told him to leave Athens.They thought this was the only way for him to save his life.Socrates refused.He did not behave as most people in his situation would.Socrates said that he had always lived by the rules of Athens and he would continue to do this.He insisted on standing trial for his “crime”Socrates knew he was not guilty of anything.The reason why he was charged was because he was different from others.Although people respected him，he also had made many people angry，so the jury(陪審團(tuán)) said Socrates was guilty.When faced with the death penalty，a person could leave Athens forever.Most people chose leave rather than die.Socrates was not like most people.Instead of telling the jury that he would go，he told them he deserved a reward.Socrates believed he had done a great service by making people think.Socrates said that he tried to persuade every one of you not to think of what he had but rather of what he was，and how he might grow wise and good.The jury did not change its mind.Socrates was executed.He died when he drank hemlock，which is poisonous.Socrates was the first great Greek philosopher.He also helped to shape other philosophers that came after him.Plato，who got his start by studying with Socrates，and Aristotle，who studied with Plato，also changed Western civilization.Asking questions to discover the truth is still practiced today.And schools even today still teach this method to students.TitleSocratesan Ancient Greek PhilosopherBrief introductionSocrates，an ancient Greek philosopher whose ideas still 4._ in our culture today.
