I used to work as a waitress in a little restaurant. I felt frustrated then so I had been   26   that period. I hadn’t told anybody except my employer. Somehow a   27   had overheard (无意中听到) my saying that I had to go to another    28  . As I passed her table, she   29   me a card with her phone number on it. She explained that she lived in Sydney and that I should call   30  I needed any help.

Some weeks later, it was time for   31   appointment in Sydney and I flew there. I was   32  as I had never been there before and didn’t   33   anyone else there. So I   34   to ring the lady who had given me her   35   number, even though I had only met her that once. 36     I had arrived, she was very excited and came   37   to meet me. She gave me a bed and a meal and took me to my appointment the next day and afterwards, she took me back to the   38 . She treated me so   39   that I offered her a gift to express my   40   but she refused. She said “Your   41   to me is to offer your help to another when it is   42  .” Over the months we kept in touch but then for some reason our communication got less and less   43  .

I always felt I wasn’t giving enough to others as a   44  , but she had told me that I gave her very much and the way I   45   people was a gift. I now give a hand to others every day even if it is only a smile to those who have none to give.

　　I worked for a short time as a cashier(出纳员) 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(真挚的) 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(现金). I gasped(喘息) as he took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me. “A reward(回报) 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(认领) 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.

 I worked for a short time as a cashier(出纳员) at a restaurant a few months ago. I also helped to clean up the tables when it was very busy. One night, just before  Christmas, I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables. I guessed I should check it to find out who was the owner, but I was very busy at the time. And I imagined that if there was something valuable(有价值的) in the wallet, 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 thanks when I handed it to him. He asked me if I had opened it, and when I told him “no”. At  once he opened it and showed that it had nearly $ 800 in cash(现金). He took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward(酬劳) for your honesty,” he said and then turned and walked away.

Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the   owner and no one returned to get it, I might keep it. But it also came into my    mind that I actually saved someone’s Christmas plans by finding and returning the wallet. The good feeling it gave me was worth more than anything could buy.
