It was Mother’s Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn’t go back home. When he walked by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind. “I’ll send Mum some roses (玫瑰).”
While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get for only five dollars, Madam?” he asked. The shop assistant told him that roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen (一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations(康乃馨). She told him they were a lot cheaper than roses.
“No, I have to have red roses,” he said, “My mum was badly ill last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special, it has to be roses, as the rose is her favorite.”
After hearing this, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man. Moved by both of them, the shop assistant said, “Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you two.” Taking the roses, the young man almost jumped into the air. He thanked John, and ran out of the shop. It was well worth twenty-five dollars John paid to see the exciting moment. Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the shop assistant to send them to his mother.
As he walked out, he felt nice. Suddenly he saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon he realized it was not a park but a cemetery (墓地). Crying, the young man carefully laid the roses, “Mum, oh, Mum, why didn’t I tell you how much I loved you? God, please help me find my mum and tell her I love her.”
Seeing this, John turned and quickly walked back to the shop. He would take the flowers home himself.

閱讀理解。
     John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington, and he inherited (繼承) $1, 000, 000 when he
was 23. He didn't feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn't have
to. John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn't tell any of his friends and gave
$ 100, 000 of his money to a charity that helped poor children to live better lives. Today he is 36. He
still wears cheap shoes and clothes and owns a small car only,  but he is much happier. 
     Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, $ 200 a month for
each. The children do not receive the money in cash (現(xiàn)金). The money pays for the children's school
expenses, food, medical care and clothing. John receives a report each year on the children's progress.  
They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
     When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. "It was not anything special," he
said. "Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know
anything about the type of life they had. "
     Once John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting. When I met
her, I felt very happy," he said, "I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer
to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot." "I want to do everything  I can. I will go on helping
those children in need," he added.
