Once，in a small village，lived a family with eight children. Two of the children loved 1 very much, but the family was so poor that it was impossible to send 2 of them to study at the art college at the same time. After many discussions, the two boys finally 3 a plan. They would toss(抛）a coin. The loser would go 4 into the mines (煤矿）and, with his earnings (赚 得的钱），5 his brother studying at the college. Then，when the brother who won the toss finished his studies, after four years, he would support the other brother studying at the 6

James won the toss and Jack went down to the mines. James worked with all his heart and his paintings were much 7 than those of most of his teachers, and by the time he 8    ，he was beginning to make a lot of
