    Tommy is from a poor family. His father is a worker and he is often ill. Tommy hopes to be an artist, but everybody says it is impossible for him to be an artist and makes fun of his family and his dream. But Tommy never gives up (放弃).

One day, he heard there was a drawing competition the following week, and anyone aged 13 and up was welcome. The winner would get 10,000 dollars and some art equipment (设备). He thought for a minute and decided to take part in the competition.
