On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. Many people put some money into the 36 of the young man.
The next day, the young artist came again, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. 37 from the day before, he took out a large piece of 38 and laid it on the ground. Then he began 39 .
Before long, the young violinist was 40 with people, who were all attracted by the 41 on that paper, which said, "Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put something important into my hat 42 . Please come to claim(认领) it soon."
After half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and 43 through the crowd to the violinist and said, "Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would 44 come here."
"Are you Mr. George Sang?"
The man nodded.
"Did you 45 something?"
"Lottery (彩票). It’s lottery," said the man.
The violinist 46 a lottery ticket on which George Sang’ s name was seen. "Is it？" he asked.
George nodded, seized the lottery ticket and 47 it; then he danced with joy.
George bought a lottery ticket which 48 him a prize of $ 500,000. He was so happy after work and felt the violinist playing so wonderfully that he put 50 dollars in the hat. 49 , the lottery ticket was also thrown in.
When asked why he didn’t keep the lottery ticket 50 himself, the violinist said," 51 I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty, I won’t be happy forever."
We can gain and lose so much in our life. But being honest should 52 be with us. If we bear ourselves in a dishonest way, we 53 succeed temporarily (暂时). However, from the long-term view, we’11 be a loser. Such a person is just like the 54 on the mountain. It’s high above at first, but gradually it falls and loses the 55 of going up.

In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her voice the judges were not sure whether she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and decided to simply ask her what she had said. By now, the girl knew she had the word. But instead of lying, she told the truth that she had said the letter—so she lost the contest.
