BFitzgerald, a verywealthy Englishman,had only one child, a son, whonaturallywas the apple of his eye. His wife d
17、ied when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted himself to fathering the kid. Unluckily the son died in his late teens.Meanwhile, Fitzgeralds wealthwas increasing all the time. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald himself became seriously ill. Before his deat
18、h, he had carefully prepared his will as to how his wealth would be settledto sell his entire collection at an auction(拍卖）.Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection, a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. Many of them were museum directors and private collec
19、tors eager to bid（出价）. Before the auction, the art works were shown, among which was a painting of Fitzgeralds son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received little attention.When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled（敲槌）the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read
20、 from Fitzgeralds will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son.The poor-quality painting didnt receive any bidders except onethe old servant who had attended tothe son and loved him, and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.As soon as the servant bought the pain
21、ting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will.

25、m everything,” a disappointed mother complains. “New shoes, video-games, and his own TV. Youd think hed at least show me respect!”Of course, love and presents are related. Most parents work hard to earn money. They want their children to have more than they did and have better lives. The problem is,
26、 most children dont connect the things parents buy with the labor that pays for them. Children have more, but our cultureand television in particularteaches them that more is never enough. Having more does not mean that a child feels loved.From a parents point of view, children are not thankful. But
27、 this has to do with their natural growth. Young children see their parents as all-mighty(万能的). If parents fail to provide what they want, it must be a matter of choice. Its normal for children, even school-age ones, not to be able to take another persons point of view. For example, they may dislike
28、 their parents for working long hours, and not realize that the parent would also rather have more time at home.In addition to giving presents, we have to find other ways to express love and create memories.
