Passage 2

(2010年重庆市高考仿真试卷三B篇)

LONDON (Reuters) – Visitors to London always have to be on the look out for pickpockets, but now there’s a more positive phenomenon-put pockets．

Aware that people are suffering in the economic crisis, 20 former pickpockets have turned over a new leaf and are now searching London’s tourist sites slipping money back into pockets．

Anything from 5 pounds ($8) to 20 pound notes is being secretly put in unguarded pockets or open handbags in Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and other busy spots．

The project, which runs until the end of August in London before being rolled out nationwide to major UK cities, is being funded by Talk Talk, which says it wants to brighten up people’s lives in unusual ways．

“It feels good to give something back for a change-and Britons certainly need it in the current economic climate,” said Chris Fitch, a former pickpocket who now heads Talk Talk’s put pocketing project．“Every time I put money back in someone’s pocket, I feel less guilty about the fact I spent many years taking it out．”

“The activity will avoid the City and Canary Wharf financial areas as we want to give the money to those who actually need it．” The put pockets have actually been told to avoid people that seem very well-off．

The put pockets are given a specific ID to show to public if caught in the act, and have plain-clothed guards who will explain the situation if spotted．

London’s police have been informed of the plan so put pocket aren’t arrested．The project will see at least 100,000 pounds given away．
