Jack Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington. He inherited (继承) a million dollars when he was 23, but he wasn’t happy at all. When his college friends were looking for their jobs, he didn’t have to. Jack decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He gave ﹩10,000 of his money to a charity to help poor children live a happy life. Today he is 36. He still wears cheap shoes and clothes and drives a small car only, but he is very happy.
Up to now Jack has helped some children from poor countries all over the world, by sending them each ﹩200 a month. The money was used for the children’s study, food, medicine and clothing. Jack receives a report each year on the children’s progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
When Jack first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. “It was nothing special,” he said. “Until I went to these countries and met the children I was helping, I didn’t know anything about their life.” Once Jack went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. “When I met her, I felt very, very happy, ”he said. “And I saw that the money was used for a good cause. It brought me happiness. I want to do everything I can to go on helping those children.”

Once upon a time,there were two good friends.One was called Jack and the other was called James.One day,the two friends were walking through the desert.During the journey they had a quarrel,and Jack couldn’t control himself and hit James in the face.James felt hurt,but he didn’t say anything.Instead,he wrote in the sand,“Today my best friend Jack hit me in the face.”
They kept on walking until they found an oasis(绿洲).They decided to get some water there.Suddenly James had trouble in the water,he fell into the mire(泥潭)and was in danger.Jack saved him at once.When he felt all right,he wrote on a stone,“Today my best friend Jack saved my life.”Jack was very surprised and asked James,“After I hurt you,you wrote in the sand and now you write on the stone.Why?”James replied,“When someone hurts us,we should write it down in the sand so that the wind of forgiveness can blow it away.But when someone does anything good for us,we must write it on the stone,so no wind can blow it away.”
Since then,the two good friends have never quarreled with each other again and they got on better with each other.
