【故事】127. Life Seems Unfair

27. Life Seems Unfair 人生似乎不公平They say that good things happen to good people, and bad things happen to bad people. This doesn't always feel true. People who have done great things die before they should. It makes life seem unfair, and it is sometimes. People who do bad things get away with it(逃脱), sometimes. Eventually(最终), people's deeds(行为) catch up to them.Shawn was a good person. He volunteered(做志愿者) every week at the animal shelter(动物收容所). He was nice to everyone, even strangers. He took care of his grandparents. Good things should happen to him, right? Unfortunately(不幸地), Shawn just found out that he got laid off(被解雇) at work. This is unfair. However, losing a job when he needed it badly made him very motivated(有动力的) to look for a new job that paid well. Eventually, he found a great job as a teacher in China.Lizzie was a bad person. She stole people's credit card information(信息), yelled at waiters, and used all her friends. Bad things should happen to her, right? Well, Lizzie happened to win $200,000 from a lottery(彩票). This is unfair. Justice was served eventually. She was sued(起诉) for credit card fraud(诈骗), and had to use the money she won to hire a lawyer.
