Once, in a small village, lived a family with two children, James and Jack. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} of them loved painting very much, but the family was so {#blank#}2{#/blank#} that it was impossible to send both of them to study at the art college at the same time. After many discussions, the two boys finally worked {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a plan. They would throw a coin. The loser would go to work in the mines（矿井） to support his brother's studies at the college. Then, when the brother at college {#blank#}4{#/blank#} his studies after four years, he would support the other brother's college studies.

    James {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, and so Jack went down into the mines. James worked with all his heart, and his paintings were soon much {#blank#}6{#/blank#} than those of most of his teachers. By the time he graduated, he was beginning to make a lot of money from his paintings.

    When James returned, the family held a big dinner to {#blank#}7{#/blank#} his great success. Soon after {#blank#}8{#/blank#} dinner began, James stood up from his seat to drink a toast to his dear brother. He said, "Jack, now you can go to the art college and your dream will come true. I will take care of you."

{#blank#}9{#/blank#} Jack said softly, "Brother, the four years in the mines has done too much to my hands, so it's too late. Now I can't even hold a glass."

James was heart-broken. One hour {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, he drew a simple picture of his brother's hands. This drawing is today known as the famous picture named The Praying Hands.

Do you feel lonely(孤单的) when your best friend isn't in the same class? Here's our advice for you.

It's hard when a best friend isn't around— maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out during break or lunchtime. You want to make new friends, but how do you find them? Maybe it seems like everybody has his or her own friends. But remember, there's always room(空间) for more friends.

Start by looking around your classroom— think about which kids you'd like to play with during break. Try saying hello to them, smile, and be friendly. Share something with them. Ask some classmates to play with you or say " Do you want to play together?" in the playground. When you're at break, walk to kids you want to play with, and say " Hi, can I join you?" or just join in them.

If you still don't know how to make friends by yourselves or if you're shy, ask your teacher to help you. Teachers are usually very good at finding people who need friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Being kind, being friendly, sharing, saving nice things, giving other people— soon, you'll have one, or two, or more new friends.

Maybe you still miss your old friends. But when you see them again, you can share something you see recently. You can also introduce him or her to your new friends.
