　　Mr Johnson wanted a car for a long time. His home is far from his factory. His wife has to get up earlier. When breakfast is ready, she wakes him up. Then he hurries to catch the early bus.

　　One day, something was wrong with the clock and he was late for work. At the gate of the shop, he met the boss. Since then he always went to the car shops and watched the cars carefully. He always wears old clothes and his wife often buys the cheapest food. They never travel in the cities. He hopes to have his own car.

　　Now, after three years, Mr Johnson had enough money to buy a car. He went to the shop happily, and chose a cheaper but beautiful one. He handed the money to the man in the shop. The man counted it carefully and then said, “Sorry, Sir. They're four thousand nine hundred and ninety-five dollars. ”

　　At that moment Mr Johnson remembered he bought a lottery tick（彩票）for some money. He went out and met with his friend Mr Hunt and wanted to borrow some.

　　“Certainly,” said the man. “What do you borrow five dollars for?”

　　“To buy a car.”“Here's ten dollars -buy one for me as well.”

　　 What else could I do? Then, with no reason, I suddenly  2  the pale face of that little beggar(乞丐) girl. I could see the glad light   3  her eyes when I put the dime in her little dirty hand.

　　  How much I  4  that dime, too! Grandpa gave it to me a whole month ago, and I had kept it ever since in my red box upstairs, but those sugar apples looked so attractive, and were so   5  — only a dime a piece — that I wanted to have one.

　　  I could imagine the little girl stood there in front of the  6  in her old dirty dress, looking at the   7  that were put all in a row in the window. I wonder what I should say, “Little girl, what do you want?” I gently asked. She felt   8  and looked straight at me, just as if（似乎）nobody had spoken so   9  to her before. She realized what I had meant, so she said seriously and sadly. “I was thinking how good one of those delicious hamburgers would  10 . I haven’t had anything to eat today.”
