       John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington, and he inherited(继承)＄1,000,000 when he
was 23. He didn't feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn't
have to. John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn't tell any of his friends
and gave＄100,000 of his money to a charity(慈善团体) that helped poor children to live better
lives. Today he is 36. He still wears cheap shoes and clothes and owns a small car only, but he is
much happier.
       Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, ＄200 a month
for each. The child does not receive the money in cash(现金). The money pays for the child's school
expenses, food, medical care and clothing. John receives a report each year on the child's progress.
They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
       When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them."It was not
anything special,"he said, "Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was
helping, I did not know any thing about the type of life they had."
       Once John 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," I saw that the money was used
for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot." "I
want to do everything I can. I will go on helping those children in need." he added.

and shines in the quiet water.

islands centuries ago were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes .

       Take any long piece of paper. Now glue the ends of the paper together. You have made a ring.
       Take a second long piece of paper. Twist the paper once and glue the ends together. Now you
have made a Mobius band. For people studying maths, this band is uncommon.
       This strange band was first made in the 1800s by a German man named August Mobius. Mr. Mobius studied maths. He wanted to find a way to show how this band works with maths. Understand it or not,
this band has only one surface. You can find this out for yourself.
       If you draw a line on the surface of the paper before you twist and glue it, the line is only on one side
of the paper. The paper has two surfaces. However, if you draw a line after you make the Mobius band,
you can follow the line around all sides of the paper. In other words, the Mobius band must have only
one surface.
       It is also very interesting to see what happens when you cut the band. If you cut the Mobius band in
half once down the line you drew, you do not get two Mobius bands. Instead, after you cut the band, it
turns into one large twisted ring. Then, if you cut this ring in half along the middle of the band again, you
get two connected  Mobius bands.
       Try it!

1. What is a Mobius band?

A. A ling piece of paper.
B. A paper ring for people to wear.
C. A metal ring for music.
D. An interesting twisted ring.

2. How can you change the two surfaces of a long piece of paper into one surface?

A. Glue the ends of the long piece of paper.
B. Cut the two surfaces of the paper into one.
C. Draw a line in the middle of the paper.
D. Twist the paper once and glue the two ends.

3. What do you get if you cut the Mobius band along the middle?

A. A long piece of paper.
B. Two long pieces of paper.
