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.”

Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school. In fact, American schools also have their rules.
