查看习题详情和答案>>I’m a volunteer for The American Diabetes (糖尿病) Association(ADA). I am on the planning committee for a one-day cycling event called “Tour de Cure”. It’s sponsored by the ADA and the profits（利润） of this event are used for diabetes research and program funding.
While I was talking to people about our “Tour de Cure” event in downtown Denver one day, I met a young boy wearing a red hat from Oklahoma named Jack. I think he was 10-11 years old. It was the jar of red rubber wrist bands (The American Diabetes Association diabetes awareness wrist bands) that caught Jack’s eye. These are the bands we give out to people who have diabetes, who have a family member who has diabetes or to those people who know someone who has diabetes.
People wear these for a variety of reasons: in memory of a loved one, to promote diabetes awareness and to show support for people who have diabetes. Jack walked towards me eyeing the jar and then he said, “Can I have one of those?” So, I replied to Jack, “Do you have someone in your family who has diabetes?” Jack said, “No, but I know someone who has diabetes.” So I gave him one to wear for his friend.
Then, Jack began looking at our “Tour de Cure” photo album. When Jack had finished and was about to go, he looked up at me and said, “Would you take a donation?” I was surprised to hear this from a 10-11-year-old boy, but I said, “Yes.” I took the lid of our donation container off as Jack was reaching into his pocket. His hand came out clinched around the donation he was about to make. It was my impression that what he had in his hand was everything he had in his pocket, as he did not count it. After Jack dropped his donation into the container, I gave him a high-five, as I so often do to acknowledge an accomplishment or an appreciation. I also gave him a handshake before he parted. After Jack left, I counted his gift—$3.00. I then realized that he gave all he had, without counting the cost.
The heart of a child made me smile that day. Thank you, Jack.

immense wealth. However, he died a poor man after a life that was once described as "a series of
suicide attempts". So, what went wrong?
As a young boy, Jack went to Westminster School, but after only one year he was expelled for
fighting with a teacher. He was then sent to Harrow School but only lasted three days before he was
also thrown out. He was eventually educated by private tutors.
After school, Jack went to Cambridge University. He arrived with 2,000 bottles of port, but left
without graduating - he found university life boring. Later, he joined the army, enlisting with the 7th
Hussars. As a young officer, he spent a year with the regiment in France as part of the occupation
force after Napoleon's defeat in 1815. Jack passed the time gambling and drinking before resigning
his commission. At the age of 21, he returned to his country house just in time to receive his inheritance.
With an annual income of over ￡800,000 in today's money, Jack was extremely rich… but it didn't
take him long to spend it all. In 1819, he became an MP. In order to secure his seat, he offered voters
￡10 notes to vote for him, spending more than ￡10,000 in total. However, he found politics dull and
went to parliament only once. Back at home, he would often drop bank notes in the gardens of his
estate, and gave his servants vast amounts of spending money. Once he lost his racetrack winnings
(several thousand pounds) when the wind blew all the money away.
One of Jack's favorite pastimes was hunting. He would go in any kind of weather, occasionally
with no clothes on. Sometimes, he would get up in the middle of the night, take off with a gun to look
for something to shoot.
Jack also kept a large number of pets. These included about 2,000 dogs. Some were fed on steak
and Champagne and even wore livery. A favorite horse had free range inside Halston Hall and would
often lie with Jack in front of the fire.
Jack was a bit of a practical joker, too. He once left a horse in the bedroom of a guest. Another
visitor fell asleep and woke up to find a live bear and two bulldogs in his bed. In 1826, as a result of a
bet, Jack rode his horse into the Bedford Hotel, up the grand staircase and onto the balcony. Then,
still sitting on the horse, he jumped off the balcony, landing among the diners in the restaurant below.
Another time, he invited a local doctor to dine at Halston Hall. As soon as the doctor had left,
Jack put on a highwayman's costume and raced ahead to rob the unsuspecting man. On another
occasion, a passenger in Jack's carriage admitted that he'd never been in an accident, so Jack drove
the carriage up a hill and turned it over. He would also slip red-hot coals into people's pockets as a
joke.
Eventually, Jack ran out of money and fell into debt. In 1830, he fled to France to avoid his
creditors(债主), but returned a couple of years later, ending up in prison in Southwark, London. Jack
died there in 1834, a poor, lonely man.
B. Jack joined the army and succeeded in defeating Napoleon's army in 1815.
C. Jack bribed the voters in order to gain a position of MP.
D. Jack fed his favorite horse with meat and wine and often lay with it in front of the fire.
