完形填空。
After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent
him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very
1 lesson in life by the great example you
2 . When we
were eating at the café in Bondi and a person who had
3 his hamburger didn’t have enough money to pay
for it, without any
4 , you went over and put the
5 $2 into his hand .
When we were leaving, you
6 threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said
7 like, "Some kids
will really enjoy
8 this."
Last week, a young man
9 me in the line at a petrol station didn’t have
10 money to pay for his petrol.
I asked the money collector, "How much
11 is he?" She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car
12 he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and put in 15
13 , which came to just over
14 . That
is an easy mistake
15 both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and
16 you did that night at the café in Bondi. I handed the man $6.
He was so
17 and said, "But why would you do this for me?" I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you again, son, for teaching me that "it’s
18 to give than to receive." Now when I see a five-cent
coin on the
19 and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it
20 , just in case some kid will get a kick
out of finding it.
Love always, Mum.
