On the paper it said, “Last night a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to it soon.”

It caused a great excitement among the and people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man hurriedly ran there. “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”

The young violinist asked , “Are you Mr. George Sang?” The man nodded. “Did you lose something?” “It’s lottery,” said the man. The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang’s name was seen. “Is it?” he asked. George nodded promptly and the lottery ticket and kissed it.

Then why didn’t you the lottery for yourself?” The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”

試題分析：本文主要講了，一個藝術(shù)大學(xué)的小提琴手在地鐵站表演，來往的人由于被他的表演吸引，所以都停下腳步往他的帽子里放錢，當(dāng)他準備飛到維也納進修時，他發(fā)現(xiàn)有一個叫George Sang的人將獲得50萬美元的彩票扔到了他的帽子里。于是他回到上次表演的地方等待那個人回來拿彩票，最終他等到了那個人。人們問那個小提琴手為什么不自己兌換彩票，他回答盡管我沒有很多錢，但我很開心，但是如果我丟失了誠信，我永遠都不會開心。這個故事告訴我們在我們的生命中我們會獲得很多，也會失去很多，但是我們應(yīng)該永遠保有誠信。
