学霸导读 遇到借钱不还的朋友怎么办呢?让我们一起来看看故事主人公是怎么做的吧!

Christopher and Jeff have known each other since childhood. One day, Jeff told his friend that he’d fallen in love and planned to get married the n 1 month. He asked Christopher to lend him$1,000 for the wedding party, and promised to pay him back a month later when he started his new job. Christopher knew that Jeff was not very good with money, but he s 2 agreed. As they were old friends, they didn’t put anything in writing.

A month later, Christopher hadn’t heard from Jeff or received any money,s 3 he phoned him. Jeff was very apologetic and said he would surely pay him back within a month. Six weeks later, Christopher tried to phone Jeff and f 4 he had moved and left no contact address.B 5 this time, he was angry.

Then one month later, to his surprise, Chistopher received a cheque (支票) for $100 from Jeff and a letter giving his new address. He explained that he’d been having money p 6 , and wouldn’t be able to pay back the remaining $900 for some time. Christopher wrote back telling Jeff to forget the r 7 of the money and never to reach him again by message or telephone.
