Sam and Tom were identical(同样的) twins. They were so identical that even their mother found it dto tell one from the other. But except for their looks, everything else about them was different.
Tom had no friends, wSam was a great friendship maker. Sam loved sweets, but Tom loved spicy food and hsweets. Sam was generous and selfless, Tom was greedy and selfish!
As Sam and Tom grew up, their father wanted to shis fortune equally. However, Tom did not agree, and he argued that whoever proved to be smarter and stronger would have to get a bshare of the wealth.
Sam agreed. Their father decided to organize a competition bthe two. He asked the two sons to walk as long as they could, and return home before sunset.
The following day, Sam and Tom set out to walk. It was a rather sunny day. Sam walked slowly and steadily, while Tom ran qas he aimed at winning the race and gained a greater portion of his father's wealth.
Sam knew that it would be ideal to walk as far as possible till noon, and start for home at noon, as it would take the same amount of time to walk back home. Kthis, Sam decided to turn back for home at noon so as to reach home on time.
However, Tom, with his greed to earn more w didn't try to return home even after mid-noon. He walked twice as long as Sam, and thought he would still be able to return home before sunset. U he lost the race at last only because of his greed.
