I worked for a short time as a cashier(出纳员)at a restaurant a few months age.I also helped to clean up the tables when it was very busy.One night, just before Christmas, I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables.I guessed I should check it to find out who was the owner, but I was very busy at the time.And I imagined that if there was something valuable in the wallet, the owner would be back.Sure enough, an hour later a man came up to the counter and asked if anyone had found a wallet.I asked him to describe the lost wallet, and after he described tie exactly, I gave him the wallet.He expressed his thanks when I handed it to him.He asked me if I had opened it, and when I told him “no”, at once he opened it and showed that it had nearly $800 in cash(现金).He took not a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward(酬劳) for your honesty, young girl.” he said and then turned and walked away.
Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the owner and no one returned to get it.But it also came into my mind that I actually saved someone’s Christmas plans by finding and returning the wallet.The good feeling it gave me was worth more than anything could buy.

If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars” .But they’re not real stars.They are man-made satellites.And the biggest of all is the International Space Station(ISS国际空间站).
From now until July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth, and people can see it just with their eyes.The ISS is the biggest man-made satellite because scientists want to live on it.They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.
When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space.People will stay an study there with many of the things they have at home.Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built.The ISS is the most ambitious(雄心勃勃) and expensive space program ever.Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year.
Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping-stone(垫脚石) for future space explanation.“The ISS will help us better understand the human body, explore space and study the earth, It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark , an ISS scientist.
China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments.China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.
The ISS is not finished yet.More than 100 parts need to be put on.Scientists hope it will be finished as soon as possible.After it’s finished, more than 90%of the world’s population will be able to see the Space Station.So keep looking up, and maybe you’ll see it get bigger.
