3．No one else knew about the extra （额外的） club in Zach Nash's golf bag．It belonged to a friend，and Zach forgot it was there as he played his way to win in a junior tournament （锦标赛） this summer in Wisconsin，US．
The 14-year-old accepted his medal，and celebrated with grandparents who had come from a long way to watch．But when he stopped by his country club to share the news，a professional player noticed something wrong．"Count your clubs，"he told the teenager．
Fifteen-one more than allowed．Zach's eyes filled with tears．
If Zach had just won a basketball or a soccer game and someone had discovered an offence （违反） after the win，it would not have mattered．
Bending the rules has become acceptable，if not encouraged，in many sports．It is nothing unusual for soccer players to make a turtle dive （假摔） in the hope of breaking rules．
Golf is different．In a win at all costs world，the game holds itself to a higher standard．
Golf isn't a game where referees （裁判） watch closely．In golf tournaments，dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land，so officials cannot hope to see each shot．Competitors call punishments on themselves．
Players feel the weight of history．Golf began at least the 15th century，but it became popular as a pastime for the wealthy who seemed to always have strict rules of behavior，even when it came to shooting at each other in rights．
"It was a sport for gentlemen，not laborers，and gentlemen did not care about winning．They cared about doing the right thing，"said Robert Simon，a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York．
Honesty became a symbol of honor．When one of the game's early stars，Bobby Jones，was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925US Open．He replied，"You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank．"
So even the error had no effect on Zach's final score-he never used the extra club，the teenager packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail．"But this was golf，and rules are rules．I just knew what I had to do，"he said．
Then came another tournament．Before teeing off，Zach counted his clubs four times．

"Sorry，only one of you can，"the woman said．"You can talk about it and decide which of you is going to be on the programme．"
I asked my friends if they wanted to be on the programme．They didn't，so I went on it．The woman asked me a lot of questions．I thought carefully and tried to give sensible  answers．When she finished，she said I was one of the best kids she'd spoken to!I felt very proud of myself．My mum and dad were proud of me too!

Her paper came back with an"F"on it．The teacher told her this was a"fairytale（童话 ）．"and it wasn't a job for a woman．

Jean felt a rush of her old enthusiasm （热情），and with excitement，she told Mrs．Slaton all about her old dreams．The teacher said．"Then do it!"

13．For years I wanted a garden．I'd spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together．
But then we had Matthew，and Marvin，and the twins----Alisa and Alan，and then Helen．I was too busy raising them to grow a garden．
Money was not enough．Neigher was time．Often when my children were little，one of them would want something that cost too much，I'd have to say，"Do you see a money tree outside？Money doesn't grow on trees，you know．"
Finally，all the children got through high school and college and were off on their own．I started thinking again about a garden．
Then，one spring morning，on Mother's Day，I was working in my kitchen．Suddenly，I looked out of the window and there was a new tree，planted right in my yard．There were things blowing around on it．Then I put my glasses on and I couldn't believe what I saw．There was a money tree in my yard!
I went out to look．It was true!There were dollar bills，one hundred of them，hanging all over that tree．There was also a note among them，"Thank you for your time，Mom．We love you!"
Later，my children bought me tools，ornaments（装饰品），a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books，A new page started in my life．
That was three years ago．My garden is now very pretty，just like I wanted．When I go out and take care of my flowers，I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did．It feels like they're right there with me．Now every year when winter comes，I look out of my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden．I think about what my children did for me，and I get tears in my eyes-every time．
I'm still not sure that money grows on trees．But I know love does!
