A story from my former test paper

416 views. 2013-1-13 23:45 |

                                           How poor we are
  A rich father decided to give his naughty child a lesson, for this child didn't study hard, so he drove his son around the country from morning to evening to see how large difference between rich and poor on one Sunday.
 After went back home, the father thought, by comparison, his child would understand what a terrible life that poor people live and so that he could make a change later. Then he asked his son:"So, through a whole day's observation from morning to evening, what thoughts do you have in your mind? " This child answered in an unhappy tone:" I see that, father, they have four dogs while we just have one; they get a river in front of their house for swim while we just have a small swimming pool in the yard; we only have one big floor lamp while they have a starry sky to light their house, how poor we are!"

To some extent,   in some areas,  richer's dogs live a better live than people in poverty.   money spent on pets is not a small accounts.

Yes, that's true. Why people like to keep a pet which they spend so much money on it but ignore the existance of the poors.
