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 the busy city of New York, such an astonishing thing ever happened.

On a Friday night, a   21  young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. Though the   22  was great, people were quickly going home for the weekend. In this case, many of them   23   their paces and put some money into his hat.

The next day, the young artist came again and put his hat on the ground gracefully   24  from the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and   25  it on the ground. Then he   26  the violin and began playing.

Before long, he was   27  with people, who were all   28  by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat   29  . Please come to claim it soon.”

Seeing this, it caused a great   30  and people wondered what it could be. After about half and hour, a middle-aged man ran there   31   and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You   32  come here I knew that you’re an honest man and would   33   come here.”

The violinist asked the man some questions and handed a   34   to him. The man seized it, kissed it and then danced with the violinist.

The story   35  to be this: George bought a lottery ticket(彩票) a few days ago and won a prize of $ 500,000. When he passed by the violinist he put $ 50 into the hat. However, the lottery ticket was also   36  in. When the artist was   37  he found the ticket. Thinking that the owner would return to   38  it, he came back to where he was given the ticket.

Later someone asked the violinist, “You’re in badly need of money for your tuition fee (学费), why didn’t you   39  it for yourself?”

The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose   40  I won’t be happy forever.”
