Mrs.Lane was living alone in a city in Texas,US.The woman in her 70s could do a lot of housework herself.However,she was too old to mow(修剪)her lawn(草坪).Then a big trouble found her.She let the grass grow over 18 inches high and it broke the law in her city.As a result,she was in danger of paying lots of money or even going to prison!
Luckily,her neighbors,the Adams brothers,heard the news about her on TV.They decided to do something to help.We haven't met her yet,but she's 75 years old and she needs some help,"said Sam Adams,one of the boys.That's the least we could do."
