He looked across the classroom at the drinking fountain②. It was very close—only ten steps away. So, Ryan asked himself, “Why do some African children have to walk ten kilometres to get water every day? [1]And why is the water so dirty that it makes them sick？” Young Ryan thought, “Life is easy for me, but hard for those people. Why don't I help？” [1]本句使用了“so...that...”结构，that引导结果状语从句；从句中makes them sick为“make＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。 At first, his plan was [2]to earn③ money to build a single well somewhere in Africa. He cleaned windows and did gardening④ for his family and neighbours. He soon reached his first target⑤ of $70, but when he gave the money to a charity, he was told that it actually cost $2，000 to build a well. Seventy dollars was only enough for a hand pump⑥. Ryan understood that a hand pump wouldn't help the children. [3]What they needed was a well dug near their homes. [2]此处动词不定式短语to earn money在句中作表语；“to build...in Africa”作目的状语。 [3]本句中“What they needed”是主语从句，What在从句中作宾语；过去分词短语dug near their homes作后置定语，修饰a well。 [4]Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didn't give up. He was determined to⑦ help other children have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours and persuaded them to⑧ donate⑨ money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan's mother helped make his story go public⑩. After several months, Ryan had raised⑪ the $2，000, [5]with which a well was built near a primary school⑫ in Uganda．The children at the school no longer⑬ needed to walk for hours to get water. They were grateful to⑭ him and invited him to visit. [4]当表示时间、距离、长度、价值、金额、重量等的可数名词复数作主语时，通常被看作一个整体，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。 [5]此处是“介词＋关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the $2，000。 In Uganda, Ryan at last saw the [6]finished well with his own eyes⑮. But that was not all. He also saw hundreds of delighted⑯ students who had turned out⑰ to welcome him. They sang and danced happily. Some even offered him food and gifts. At first Ryan was nervous, but soon a great warmth filled him. He really had made a difference for these children. He broke into a joyful smile⑱． [6]此处是过去分词作前置定语，修饰well。 Later, Ryan's experience led him to⑲ set up⑳ a foundation㉑ to encourage more people to help. Many inspired people gave him their support. Ryan's foundation continues to㉒ attract support from㉓ more and more people, so the work of building more wells can go on㉔. Today, over 800，000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from㉕ the life­changing㉖ gift of clean, safe water. Now, as an adult, Ryan says that the question [7]to ask is not “Why don't I help？”， but “How can I help today？”. This insight㉗ grew from the determined attitude of a six­year­old boy who had the courage and perseverance㉘ to make his dream a reality㉙． [7]此处是动词不定式作后置定语，修饰the question。 改变世界的井 六岁的加拿大男孩瑞安听老师说，非洲的发展中国家有许多人没办法获得足够多干净的水，他对此感到难以置信。他望向了教室另一边的饮水机。距离很近，只有十步之遥。于是，瑞安问自己：“为什么有些非洲孩子每天不得不步行10公里去取水？为什么水会那么脏，以至于让他们生病？”小瑞安想：“生活对我来说很简单，但对那些人来说却很艰难。我为何不伸出援助之手？” 起初，他的计划是赚钱，在非洲的某个地方打一口井。他为家人和邻居擦玻璃、打理花园。他很快就实现了第一个目标——挣到70美元，但当他把这笔钱捐给一家慈善机构时，却被告知打一口井实际上要花费2 000美元。70美元只够买一个手摇泵。瑞安知道一个手摇泵无法帮到那些孩子。他们需要的是一口打在他们家附近的井。 2 000美元是一大笔钱，但瑞安没有放弃。他决心要帮助其他孩子获得干净的水。他开始向同班同学和邻居寻求帮助，劝说他们捐款。与此同时，瑞安妈妈的一个朋友帮忙宣传他的故事。几个月后，瑞安筹集到了2 000美元，他用这笔钱在乌干达的一所小学附近打了一口井。学校的孩子们再也不用步行数小时去取水了。他们很感谢瑞安，并邀请他前来做客。 在乌干达，瑞安终于亲眼看到了那口打好的井。但这还不是全部。他还看到数百名兴高采烈的学生到场迎接他。他们高兴地唱歌、跳舞，甚至有人为他送上了食物和礼物。起初瑞安很紧张，但很快他的心里就充满了暖意。他真的改变了这些孩子的生活。他突然开心地笑了起来。 后来，瑞安的这次经历促使他设立了一个基金会，以鼓励更多的人提供帮助。许多受到鼓舞的人都来支持他。瑞安的基金会不断吸引着越来越多的人的支持，因此打更多的井的工作得以继续。今天，已有非洲16个国家的80多万人受益于这一改变生活的礼物——清洁、安全的水。 现在，作为一个成年人，瑞安说要问的问题不是“为什么我不去帮助(别人)？”，而是“今天我该如何帮助(别人)？”。这种顿悟源于一个态度坚定的六岁男孩，他有勇气和毅力实现自己的梦想。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
