阅读下列材料，然后根据材料内容完成所提问题。
John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington, and he inherited (继承) $1 000 000 when he was
23. He didn't feel happy at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn't have to.
John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. He didn't tell any of his friends and gave $100 000
of his money to a charity (慈善团体) that helped poor children to live better lives. Today he is 36. He still
wears cheap shoes and clothes and owns a small car only, but he is much happier.
Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, $200 a month for each.
The child does not receive the money in cash (现金). The money pays for the child's school expenses, food,
medical care and clothing. John receives a report each year on the child's progress. They can write to each
other, but usually the children do not speak English.
When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them."It was not anything special," he said.
"Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know anything
about the type of life they had."
Once John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting."When I met her,
I felt very happy," he said,"I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the
child in a way that giving money alone cannot.""I want to do everything I can. I will go on helping those
children in need," he added.

故事类阅读

故事类阅读：
文章一般描述的是某一件具体事情的发生发展或结局，有人物、时间、地点和事件。
命题往往从故事的情节、人物或事件的之间的关系、作者的态度及意图、故事前因和后果的推测等方面着手，考查学生对细节的辨认能力以及推理判断能力。
阅读这类材料时，同学们一定要根据主要情节掌握文章主旨大意，同时抓住每一个细节，设身处地根据文章内容揣摩作者的态度和意图，根据情节展开想象，即使是碰到深层理解题也可迎刃而解。

故事类阅读注意：
初中生接触到的阅读材料大都是故事类。
阅读故事类的材料，应该抓住人物线索、地点线索、时间线索和情节发展线索。

特别注意的是，以上线索往往是并存的。因为情节的发展总是涉及到人物的变化、时间的推移、场景的变换等。
而阅读材料后的阅读理解往往会围绕这些内容设计一些事实类的理解题。

凡事实类的理解题都可以从阅读材料的表层文字中找到答案。

在阅读故事类短文时，应理解文章的深层含义，也就是它的主题。在此需要注意的是，现在的阅读理解题在测试事实类的理解题的同时，往往有一道推理类理解测试题．
