One very cold and rainy night in the winter of 2012, my husband and I were in a fast food restaurant. We were about to begin our meal 36 a man walked in. He was completely 37 from the rain and went into the men's room.
I watched him go by, then I said to my husband, "That man must have had nothing to eat in a long time." When the man came out of the men's room, he just 38 himself in a chair, not going anywhere near the food counter. I 39 that he didn't have any money for food and 40 wanted to dry off for a while.
I just couldn't eat my food knowing that someone else was sitting 41 only a few tables away. So, I 42 a $20.00 bill from my shopping money to my husband. "Please get him dinner," I said. "We can do with less money this week."
My husband 43 the man and quietly asked if he needed some food. The man 44 at us. "A small cup of coffee would be great," he said. "Thank you so much!" He 45 wasn't going to take advantage of us, but we 46 that he should have a full meal, which he gratefully(感激地) 47 .
After he 48 the food, he thanked my husband and my husband said, "No. Thank my 49 . She noticed that you were 50 ."
The man asked me, " 51 did you know I haven't eaten in a long time?" I smiled at him and said nothing , just asking him to 52 the change(零钱) from the $20.00.
Giving others a 53 whenever they’re in trouble not only brings happiness to the ones who 54 it but also to the ones who give it. I am so grateful that I was able to 55 with someone truly in need. It is a little bit of extra warmth on a rainy day.

Recently, a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are a very good friend. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn't. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.
Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich because you are a self-made man?
Answer: The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I do not know much. All I am is rich.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to bring happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
54. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money _______.
A. is a good way to test your friendship
B. will do harm to your friendship
C. will strengthen your friendship
D. is a good way to break off your friendship
55. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?
A. He does not feel that he is well educated.
B. He does not think that he is a very important person.
C. He doesn't think that being rich is worth so much attention.
D. He does not consider himself to be very successful.
56. What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?
A. Money is an end. B. Money is a means.
C. Money is everything D. Money is unimportant.
57. What does the answer mean by" All I am is rich. "?
A. I am a rich person.
B. I only have money.
C. I have all money.
D. I've got a large sum of money.
