Jenny knew she had a problem when she looked in her money box. It was only three days until the school trip to the beach, and Jenny didn‘t have any money. To make things worse, her next pocket money was still six days away.

―What‘s the matter, Jenny?‖ asked her sister, Mary.

―Mary,‖ said Jenny, ―I‘m in double trouble. I can‘t go to the beach with my classmates, and I‘ve broken my promise to Mom. I promised I‘d stay within my budget (预算) this month.‖

For a few minutes, the two girls just sat and thought. Then Mary grabbed Jenny‘s arm.

―Jenny, I won‘t give you the money, but I will help you. Just listen for a minute.‖

At first, Jenny wasn‘t interested since Mary wasn‘t willing to give her the money she needed. However, after Mary explained her plan, Jenny began to like it.

Mary would lend Jenny the money for the beach trip, but Jenny would have to create a real budget for herself and follow it. In addition, if Jenny successfully followed the budget, Mary wouldn‘t tell their mother about Jenny‘s recent money disaster.

―Mary, you are a lifesaver,‖ Jenny hugged Mary‘s neck.

The two sisters began to work together. After several hours, they agreed on how Jenny should use her money. Mary took their figures and made a graph (表格) for Jenny.

Holding up the graph, Mary said, ―Now you can see where your money should go each month.‖

―Thanks, Mary,‖ Jenny said. ―But I know one thing that my money can‘t buy. It couldn‘t buy another great sister like you,‖ said Jenny. Then she hung her new budget on her bedroom wall.

51. How did Mary help Jenny?
