Many people were really surprised last Wednesday when money started falling from the sky. The accident happened on Green Street. A company clerk（职员） was crossing the busy street with a bag. In the bag, there was 50,000 dollars. She was going to put the money in the bank. Suddenly, a strong wind blew her skirt up. The clerk put her hands on her skirt right away. But she dropped the bag at the same time. The wind blew the money into the air and it fell all over the street. She rushed to pick up all the money she could find at once, and a lot of people came to help her as well. But she could only get back 44,500 dollars.
When the clerk went back to the company, she felt really worried. She thought she had to pay off （偿清） the lost money. However, after she told her boss what had happened, to her surprise, the boss didn't ask her to pay back the money. Instead, he told her to wear trousers to work from then on.
The clerk put her hands on her skirt right away.
