    Erin Brockovich grew up in Kansas,USA. She studied at a business college for a year,and then she went to California.

    In 1990,when she was thirty years old,she had a car accident. A law firm(律師事務(wù)所) helped her after the accident,so she started to work for them later.  

    Her job was to organize papers One day Erin realized that there were lots of very sick people in a place called Hinkley. She felt it was unusual,so she started to look for more information about the town.

    Erin worked very hard for five years. She visited lots of sick people in Hinkley and listened to their stories. All the sick people lived near a big factory called Pacific Gas and Electric. Then 'she discovered that there was something called chromium in the water they drank. It was from the factory and Erin believed that the people were sick because of the chromium in their drinking water. She planned to help them.

    Erin staried a law awe (訴訟) against Pacific Gas and Electric. The factory wasn’t happy about this. They didn't agree that the people were ill because of the water — but in 1996 theyWge (法官) ordered Pacific Gas and Electric to pay the people in Hinkley $500,000 each.

    In 2000,there was a film about Erin Brockovich. Julia Roberts played Erin and the film was very successful. Now Erin is famous — she has her own firm and she gives talks all over the world.
