Jackson was driving back home along a road one evening. He just lost his job. It was winter and it was very cold, just like his feelings.

An old lady with her car was standing on one side of the road. She needed help. No one stopped to help her. Jackson stopped in front of her and got out of his car. The lady looked very worried. Even when he put a smile on his face, the old lady still looked worried. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe, and he looked poor and hungry.

Jackson knew how she felt. He said." I'm here to help you, madam. Why don't you wait in my car? By the way, my name is Jackson."

The lady thought for a while and then went into his car. There was something wrong with her car. Jackson went under her car to repair it. When he finished, he got dirty and his hands hurt. Then the lady told him that her name was Anie. She asked Jackson how much she should pay for his help.

Jackson never thought about getting money. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she should give that person help.

We drink tea every day. But more than three hundred years ago most of the people in Europe (欧洲) did not know anything about tea. Some people heard about it, but very few of them know what to do with it.

　There is a story about an English sailor (水手) who went to countries in the east, the west and the south. He went to India and China. One day he came home and brought some tea as a present for his mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to a "tea party". When her friends came to the "tea party", the old woman gave them brown tea-leaves. The old woman's friends began to eat them. Of course, nobody liked the tea-leaves.

　At that time the sailor came in. He looked at the table and said, "Mother，what did you do with the tea?"

　"I boiled it，as you said."

　"And what did you do with the water?"

　"I threw it away(扔掉)，of course." answered the old woman.

　"Now you may throw away the leaves，too，" said her son.
