These needles may possibly do you some good．” I agreed．In a moment, he had taken out a few needles from his purse．Without a moment’s delay, he fixed a few needles into the skin on my head here and there, Before long, I felt thoroughly relieved（缓解疼痛）．

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it．And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is．That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about, It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours．
The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand．He told this story about himself．He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23．That was a lot of money in those days．He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City．When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day．When he saw that rich people had servants．Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours．
It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up．The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life．They moved back to an apartment（公寓房间） in New York City．
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbours．He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series （系列） of short stories, He called it ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common name in the United States．’ Keeping up with the Joneses’ came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you．Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years．
People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses．And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world．But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr．Jones always seems to be ahead．
