June and I were both poor when we were young. At that time, June always said, “ If I got rich, I would buy a bigger apartment and a new wardrobe(衣柜).” Of course, she said this just for fun and she never imagined that she would really become rich.
A few years ago, June was surprised and excited when she came into a fortune(财产) from her uncle, who had been single. After receiving it, she made a shopping list. On it she wrote down all the ways she could use to spend the money. Every time I told her not to spend all of the money and to save some, she would always say impatiently(不耐烦的), “ I know, I know!”
One day, when I was in June’s home, she passed a piece of paper to me. “I thought over your suggestion for several nights. I’ve decided how to use the money. I hope my money will be helpful to those who need help,” she said.
I was pleased to hear what she said. Then I took the paper and only saw the two words written by her: Charity and Family. I smiled and played a joke on her, “Don’t you want to move to a new apartment? That is what you have been dreaming of.”
“Actually, I have been looking forward to it, but now it doesn’t seem so important to me anymore,” she answered with a smile.
When I was about to put the paper on the table, I found there were still a few words. June had written: and a new wardrobe.
【小题1】June could get her uncle’s fortune because ________.
