  I worked for a short time as a cashier(出納員) at a restaurant a few months ago. I also helped clean off the tables when it was especially busy. One night, just before Christmas, I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables. I guess I should have checked it to find out who was the owner, but I was very busy at the time. Also, I imagined that if the wallet contained anything valuable, the owner would be back. Sure enough, an hour later a man came up to the counter and asked if anyone had found a wallet. I asked him to describe the lost wallet, and after he described it exactly, I gave him the wallet. He expressed his sincere(真摯的) thanks when I handed it to him. He asked me if I had opened it, and when I told him “No”, he immediately opened it and showed that it contained nearly $ 800 in cash(現(xiàn)金). I gasped(喘息) as he took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me. “A reward(回報(bào)) for your honesty,” he said and then turned and walked away.

  Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been so honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I think that if there had been no way to find the owner and no one had returned to claim(認(rèn)領(lǐng)) it, I might have kept it. But it also came into my mind that I had actually saved someone's Christmas plans by finding and returning the wallet, The good feeling it gave me was worth much more than anything money could buy.

  The dirty, homeless man sat on the pavement, staring at the atones.He thought back more than twenty years to when he was a boy living in a small red brick house on this very street.He recalled the flower garden, the swing his dad made, and the bike he had saved up for months to buy.

  The man shrugged impatiently, for the brightness of those pictures hurt him, and his memory travelled on another ten years.He had a job by then, plenty of friends and started to come home less.He did not really want to remember those years, nor the day when, because o' debts, he had gone home planning to ask for money.He felt embarrassed, but he knew exactly where his dad kept the money.When his parents stepped out of the room, he took what he wanted and left.

  That was the last time he had seen them.Ashamed, he went abroad, and his parents knew nothing about the years of wandering or time in prison.But locked in his cell he often thought of home.Once free, he would love to see his parents again, if they were still alive, and still wanted to see him.

  When his prison time was up, he found-a job, but couldn't settle.Something was drawing him home.He did not want to arrive penniless, so he hitchhiked most of the long journey back.But less than a mile from his destination he started to feel sick with doubt.Could they ever accept this man who had so bitterly disappointed them?

  He spent most of that day sitting under a tree.That evening he posted a letter which, although short, had taken him hours to write.It ended with:

  I know it is unreasonable of me to suppose you want to see me...so it's up to you.I'll come early Thursday morning.If you want me home, hang a white handkerchief in the window of my old bedroom.If it's there, I'll come in; if not, I'll wave good-bye and go.

  And now it was Thursday morning and he was sitting on the pavement at the end of the street.Finally he got up and walked slowly toward the old house.He drew a long breath and looked.

Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, cricket--- anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.

It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th  birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set up his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.

The following year he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s school of adventure in Scotland, where he learnt about Ridgway’s cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.

In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition(探險(xiǎn)) towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite(凍瘡), ran into a polar bear and pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled(雪橇) up and over rocky ice. www.zxxk.com

About ten years ago, a young and very successful businessman named Josh was traveling down a Chicago neighborhood street. He was going a bit too fast in his shiny, black, 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE, which was only two months old.

He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no child came out, but a brick sailed out and—WHUMP! —it hit the Jag’s shiny black side door! Immediately Josh stopped the car, jumped out, seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car. He shouted at the kid, “What was that all about and who are you? That’s my new Jag, that brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money. Why did you throw it? ”

“Please, mister, please. . . I’m sorry!  I didn’t know what else to do! ” begged the youngster. “I threw the brick because no one else would stop! ” Tears were streaming down the boy’s face as he pointed around the parked car. “It’s my brother, mister” he said. “He rolled off the curb (路沿) and fell out of his wheelchair and I can’t lift him up. ”Sobbing, the boy asked the businessman, “ Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He’s hurt and he’s too heavy for me. ”

Moved beyond words, the young businessman tried hard to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. Straining, he lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapers and cuts, checking to see that everything was going to be OK. He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home.

It was a long walk back to the black, shining 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE—a long and slow walk. Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar. He kept the dent (凹痕) to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention. Feel for the bricks of life coming at you.

2.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Josh would accept the money from the kids.

B.Josh was a kind-hearted man
