Facebook创始人写信给刚出生的女儿并捐450亿美元做慈善

北京时间12月2日，Facebook创始人和CEO马克·扎克伯格及妻子的第一个孩子出生。

扎克伯格利用这一重要时刻宣布，他和妻子将捐出所持有的99%Facebook股票，当前的价值约为450亿美元，用于拓展人类潜能，促进下一代儿童的平等。

投资领域包括个性化学习。

扎克伯格夫妇称，他们的女儿名叫马克斯（Max），夫妇俩将通过一个名为“扎克伯格—陈计划”（ChanZuckerbergInitiative）的新实体实施慈善捐赠。

扎克伯格为专门为女儿写了一封信来宣布这个消息，下面是这封信里的与部分，读来令人动容：

亲爱的Max，

你妈妈和我还找不到词汇来描述你给我们带来的对未来的期望。

你的新生活充满了潜能，我们愿你能健康快乐，以让你充分地去探索研究。

你已经给了我们一个理由去反思我们希望你生活的那个世界。

像所有的父母一样，我们想要你长大后的世界比我们今天更好。

以下是这封信的英文原文（全文），有点长，希望同学们能够耐心看完，里面的词几乎全是大纲词汇，如果不认识可以查字典。

可以说，里面每个句型都值得我们学习，如果是你特别喜欢的，就多读几遍，背诵下来，将来可以用于英语作文中。
