　　Do you need money? Write a letter to Mr Percy Ross. Maybe he will give you some. Mr Ross is a rich man, and he likes to give people money. But he usually sends money to old people, sick people and poor children. People who are young and healthy can not get money from him. Sometimes Mr Rose doesn't send people money. He sends the things they need－shoes, a hearing aid(助听器), new pots and pans, or some advice. Mr Ross was very poor when he was a boy, and now he is a successful businessman. He wants to help poor people.
