  I am glad to be your guest speaker today.It is a great pleasure to visit your school and to meet all of you.

  I would like to tell you about myself.I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years.I chose this job so that I could travel the world.And the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons.I have seen famines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death.But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.

  In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children.Some were as young as four years old.They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing.But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them.Within me year, she was looking after two hundred children.She clothed them, fed them and taught them.She gave them hope.

  Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake.In one place, I found an old lady whose house was in ruins.Her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive.But the old lady did not give up hope.For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself.She did not stop until she found her son.He was alive.

  Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious medical condition.He had “undergone” twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital.I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.

  In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from.When my lire was difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.

  Many times my friend June would say,“If I ever get rich, I’m getting a completely new wardrobe and moving into a bigger apartment.”I thought of her words and her chances of being rich are about as good as mine.But, to everyone’s surprise, a few years ago June did come into a large inheritance(遗产).

  At first June said very little about the money.As the initial(最初的)shock disappeared, she became excited.June is a great believer in making lists, so I wasn’t surprised to find her writing down all the ways she would spend her new wealth.

  As time went on, what had been midway down the column was now at the top.At last, I said to her,“You know, it isn’t necessary to spend all your inheritance at once.Take some time; think about it.”“I know, I know,”she answered with a little bit anger.

  Then one morning June called.“I’ve decided how I want to use my new inheritance.I want to see what you think,”she said.This wasn’t something I looked forward to, but we had been friends so long.

  As we sat, June spread a sheet of paper on the table.To my great surprise, she had written only two words:Charities(慈善), and Grandchildren-in that order.Though I had vowed(发誓)to keep quiet, I couldn’t keep from asking how she came to this decision.

  “Well,”she said,“I took your advice and thought about it.”She added,“Helping others means a lot to me, so I’m hoping this gift will help people in need.”

  I interrupted.“But what about this big apartment you most hope to have?”

  “At first it was hard, but it doesn’t seem as important any more,”she answered with a smile.

  Then June moved her hand, and I could see a few words written in tiny letters at the bottom of the page.After having a look at the small print, I burst into laughter.June had written:AND one new wardrobe.
