Every year,there is an important lottery in Newtown.
The lottery raises money for the local hospital.
Most people buy at least one ticket,because the first prize is a million dollars!
One year,John Smith wopn the first prize.
He immediately gave up his job and started to enjoy himself.
He bought the fastest and most expensive car he could find.
He bought a motorboat.
He traveled twice around the world,eating and drinking at the most expensive restaurants.
He went on a safari in Africa.
He explored theSouth Pole.
He lived a life of pleasure,luxury and adventure.
He put on a lot of weight from eating too much good food.
Two years later,after he had spent all his money,he returned home and asked for his job back.
He had only been back at work a few days when one of the girls in the office tried to sell him a lottery ticket.
You must buy one,John,she said.Remember how lucky you were last time?
I'm not buying anymore lottery tickets,he said.
But you must,the girl argued.You might win again.
That's what frightens me,John siad.If I try to do again all the things I did last year,I'll be dead before the end of this year!
看在我这么认真的分上选我为最佳吧谢谢!
