题目内容
After the First World War, a small group of soldiers left the army and returned to their hometown in France. Most of them lived well, but one of them was poor. His name was Lebeau.
Once a year they had supper together in Barton's house. Barton was a rich man.
One evening Barton showed his friends a large gold coin at the supper table. The coin was passed around and praised by everyone there. At the same time they were talking and laughing. They soon forgot the coin. After supper, Barton asked for the coin, but nobody could tell where it was. It was lost.
One of the men said that everyone must be searched. One by one they turned out their pockets. Only Lebeau refused. “I didn't steal the coin,” he said, “and I will not be searched.” After that, people turned their heads away from Lebeau when they met him. He grew poorer and poorer. Soon his wife died.
A few years later, Barton had his house repaired. The lost coin was found under the floor. Barton felt sorry and went to Lebeau to apologize. “But” he asked, “You know the coin was not in your pocket,” he said to Lebeau, “but why did you refuse to be searched?”
“Because I was a thief,” Lebeau answered. “My pockets were full of food at that time. I had taken some food from the table to carry home to my wife and hungry children.”
