People are always dreaming of winning millions of dollars overnight in a lottery. People often wonder what they would do if they won one of these large sums of money. They have many different ideas. Some people say they would give it away to charities. Others say they would give most of it to their families. Some people just list all the things they would buy. One evening three friends were talking about what they would do if they won millions of dollars. “What would you do,”the first man asked the other two，“if you woke up one morning and discovered you had won fifty million dollars?” His two friends thought for a few moments，then one of them said，“I，d buy the biggest house in the world. Or maybe I’d buy several houses in different parts of the world so I could go and live anywhere I like. They would all have to have wonderful views，of course. And I d employ hundreds of servants to look after me and take care of all my beautiful gardens. ” The other said, “I’d spend my life traveling around the world. I d go to Africa，North and South America，all over Europe and anywhere else I wanted. I d stay at the best hotels. I d eat only the most expensive food and wear the finest clothes. ” The two men turned to their friend who had asked the question. “And what about you? What would you do if you woke up one morning to discover you had won fifty million dollars?” The man laughed. “Oh，I'm a greedy person. I’d go back to sleep and try to win another fifty million,”he said. 中英文例句 1. Efficiency is a distant dream. 高效只是个遥远的梦。 2. What could this dream mean? 这个梦到底是什么意思呢？ 3.
