Frank didn't understand why Jack would rather do artistic things than play ball. He believed sports often allowed many kids to play together. That was when Jack's idea hatched. He would show Frank what doing things together looked like!
After Jack finished creating a special sandcastle with stairs, towers and walls, he took pictures of it. Then he painted colorful posters featuring (突出) his sandcastle and the question,“Can you top this?”He hung his posters everywhere in town, announcing his plan for a day of sandcastle artistry (艺术)—people of all ages were welcome.

When Frank saw the posters, he not so nicely told Jack that no one would come. Still, shortly after sunrise on Saturday, Jack was on the beach digging in the sand. By mid-morning, four kids were sculpting (雕塑) the sand alongside him. By noon the number had increased a lot.
After Frank came back from his ball game, he went to check how his brother's plan turned out. He couldn't believe what he saw. At least 30 people were building a city of sandcastles, and everyone was chatting and laughing and working together! It was the most beautiful thing he had seen on the beach.

Since the 1980s, the clothing industry in Shenzhen has flourished (繁荣).And scissors are one of the indispensable tools for making clothes. However, with less and less clothing factories left now, and lifestyle changes caused people to buy classier knives and scissors rather than keep old ones. Knife sharpeners are therefore rarely to be found in the city today.
“Shenzhen is developing too fast,” Chen said he has witnessed the rapid development of the city and felt its inclusiveness (包容性) and friendliness. But Chen said he would keep on doing the job as long as he is needed.“Now it doesn't matter to me whether I make money or not from the job.I just want to keep this skill.”
