1 Do you think money is important?
Yeah, I'd say it's extremely important! I mean, I don't think anyone would argue with the fact that our society nowadays revolves around money, so you basically need it for pretty much everything.

解析：
句回答的时候加上extremely这样的副词
连接词I mean 帮你拿到连贯性的分数
anyone would argue with the fact that 从句的使用
revolve around 围绕
程度词basically 基本上
pretty much 几乎，差不多

2 Do you think there are times when it's not very suitable to give money as a gift?
Yeah, I'd say there are certain occasions when it wouldn't be so appropriate. For example, if you've been invited to someone's house for lunch or dinner, the host would probably feel pretty offended if you turned up with money for them, the reason being that they are the one treating you, not the other way around. So in this instance, it would be much more appropriate to bring something like fruit as a gift, which is what a lot of people here do when they visit someone's home.

解析：
I‘d say 冗词，口语化
certain occasions 替代题目中的times
appropriate 替代题目中的suitable
副词使用：probably,pretty
连接词：the reason being that 并且这里在语法上是独立主格的使用
the other way around 相反的
in this instance 在这种情形下
从句套从句：which is what a lot of people here do when they visit someone's home.

3 Would you say that having a lot of money is the same as being successful？
Well, I suppose it depends on where the money's come from.Because if, for example, the money's been inherited, or it's been earned through unethical means, then I don't think there's anything successful about that at all. But if, on the other hand, the money has been earned as a result of honest and ethical work, then I would say yes, it's one aspect of being successful.
解析：
be inherited 继承得到的
on the other hand 另一方面
unethical means 不道德的方式

4 Are there any disadvantages of having lots of money?
Yeah, I suppose there are. For example, I've heard quite a few stories about people who have won the lottery that have gone on to beome quite unhappy and depressed, because everyone around them suddenly started asking for money. So this would be one disadvantage, and I guess another would be that it might be quite difficult to tell who your real friends are, because it's very likely that a lot of people might want to make friends with you purely because of your money. But in any case, I'd still much rather be rich than poor!

解析：
 So this would be one disadvantage, and I guess another would be that  承上启下的衔接
purely because 仅仅因为
in any case 无论如何
