A

    A little girl stood near a small church. She wanted to leave because it “was too crowded”. “I can't go to Sunday School ,” she cried to the pastor (牧师) as he walked by.

The pastor guessed the reason,and,taking her by the hand,took her inside and found a place for her in the Sunday School class. The child was so touched that she went to bed that night thinking of the children who have no place in the school.

     Some years later,this child was dying in one of the poor buildings. And the parents sent for the kindhearted pastor to meet their daughter. As her poor little body was being moved,they found a worn purse. Inside was found 57 cents and a note which read, uThis is to l) elp build the small church bigger so more children can go to Sunday School. ”

     For two years she had saved for this offering of love. Carrying this note,the pastor told people the story of her unselfish (无私的 ) love.

     A newspaper learned of the story and published it It was read by a Realtor (房地产经纪人) who offered them a parcel of ( —块) land worth many thousands. When he was told that the church could not pay so much,he offered it for 57 cents.

     Church members made a large donation. Checks came from far and wide. Within five years the little girl's gift increased to $ 250,000,a huge sum for that time.

      When you are in the city of Philadelphia,look up Temple Baptist Church,with 3,300 seats in it. Have a look,too,at a Sunday School building. It's so big that no child in the area will ever need to be left outside during Sunday School time.

   A. To save money for her future career.

   B. To build a large building for more children to live in.

     He walked to my house for help. I helped him pull his car out of the snowdrift and up to the street where the snow had been cleaned away.
