One day during a Christmas holiday, I was taking a walk near my house.
Suddenly there came a voice（声音） behind me, "Excuse me, sir. " I turned around and saw a poor old man with 1 clothes, "Have you seen any money, about fifty dollars, around here? I 2 it just now. " He waited for my reply eagerly(渴望地).
"Sorry, I haven't." I answered. He went away, saying in a low voice, "Where is it? What 3 I do now? I really need the money. My wife is in hospital. "
He went along the road slowly. I could 4 that he was worried. Then I 5 an idea. I took out a fifty-dollar note and 6 it on the grass. "Here! Here is the money!" I picked it up and 7 it to him. He was 8 and ran away with great joy.
A week later, on a snowy afternoon, I heard 9 knocking at the door. It was the old man with a heavy bag on his shoulder. He put down the bag 10 and said "Thank you so much. I knew you gave me your own money that day, for my money was just some 11. But my wife was 12, and I really needed it to buy some medicine for her. So I 13it. " He added, "I have nothing to pay for your 14. Here's some rice I got from door to door for your children. As the saying goes. ‘A child who is 15 by many families grows stronger. ' I will be pleased if you like it. "
My wife and I were so moved that we could say nothing.
