What would you do if you were unemployed, homeless and you found a large sum of money? Pauline Nichter, 46, and her husband, Tom, 44, had both 1  their jobs and were living in and out of motels(汽车旅馆) with their 11-year-old son, Jason. They were in danger of losing their car for  2  to make payments on it.

One day last summer, Pauline found a wallet  3  a credit card, an airline ticket to New Zealand and $2,394 in   4   at a shopping center in the Los Angeles suburb of Buena Park. “For a second I  5  about taking the money,” she said later. “  6 only for a second. It wasn’t our money and we don’t want to set a bad   7 to our son.” She delivered the wallet and the contents to the nearest   8  , where the owner reclaimed them. Police admitted that they were  9 when the Nichters walked into the police station with the  10  and the money.

Word of the  11  quickly got around, and a grateful community  12 in kind. The Nichters received more than ten job offers and a(n)  13 rent-free for six months. An unknown donor(捐助人) brought the car  14 up to date. Others gave cash. One elderly couple walked into the police station  15  Pauline had turned in the wallet and asked how much had been in  16  . When they were   17  the amount, the man said, “Then that’s what they  18  ,” and wrote out a check for $2,400.

At a news conference Pauline said in 19  , “Never in a million years would I have thought this would happen to us. What we have  20 is far more than what was in the wallet.”
