One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a boy from my class walking home from school. His name was Kyle. He was carrying all his books. I thought to myself: Why would anyone bring home all his books on Friday? He must really be a bookworm As I was walking, I saw

some kids running toward him. They knocked all his books out of his arms and pushed him to the ground.

His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw tears in his eyes. I felt sad and I went directly to him.

As I handed him his glasses, I said, “Those guys are fools.” He looked at me and said, “Thanks!” There was a big smil e on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude (感激) . I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. Then I invited him to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He agreed. We played together and had fun on that weekend.

Millionaire Jack lost his sight. The doctor told him that only by doing a cornea transplant surgery (眼角膜移植手术)could he restore (恢复）his sight.

Jack offered a large sum of money for the cornea, but time passed day after day, he didn't get any response. Jack was usually proud of his wealth, and had done many bad things, so as soon as the donors(捐赠者) heard his name, all of them refused without hesitation.

At first, Jack was not happy about the result, but later, he had no choice but to wait quietly.

One day, Jack went out to sit in the sunlight. He raised his head to enjoy the sunshine. However, he saw nothing but the darkness.

Just as Jack felt sad, someone hit him hard all of a sudden. He shouted, "Don't you have eyes? Don’t you see who you hit? I’m Millionaire Jack!”

The answer was from a little boy, “I’m sorry, sir. I didn’t notice，please forgive me!”

Jack changed his mind and said, ''I can forgive you, but you must chat with me!"

The boy said yes, and Jack asked, “Is the sun big today?”

The boy answered happily, “Sir, the sun is pretty fine today, big and bright!" Jacks face also lit up with a smile as if he had seen the golden sun. Then he asked, ”Is the surrounding environment beautiful?"

The boy began to describe it, "How beautiful !The green grass, the blue sky, the colorful flowers everywhere.”

As he was listening, Jack began to envy (嫉妒)that boy. Suddenly, he shouted at the sky, “Oil, my God, the little boy is so lucky. He has a pair of eyes! Why do you give him light?"

At this moment, a lady interrupted Jack, "You are wrong! My son is too poor to have eyes. What he just described is what I told him!" Jack was shocked and felt very sad.

Since then, the city charity has been receiving a large sum of money every year. The donor was the millionaire named Jack.
