When people find something valuable and return it to its owner, they are often given a reward. This is because the person not only found what was lost but also spent time 46 its owner or taking it to the police station.
There was once a young boy 47 found a woman’s purse in a shopping centre. Inside the purse there 48 some money and the woman’s driving license. Her name and 49 were printed on the license, so the boy knew where she lived. That evening he went to her house and 50 her door. When she opened it, he said, “ I found your purse,” and handed it to her.
“Thank you very much,” she said. She opened her purse and took out all the money. She wanted to give the boy a small reward, 51 there were only bills of $20 in the purse and she thought that $ 20 was too 52 to give the boy. “ I’m sorry,” she said, “ but I don’t have any small 53 to give you.”
The boy said, “That’s all right,” and he went away.
A few days later he found 54 woman’s purse. It also had her driving license in it, so he knew where she lived. He went to her house and said “ I found your purse,” and handed it to her.
“Thank you very much, “ she said. She opened her purse and took out all her money.
“That’s 55 ” , she said, “ Before I lost my purse I had a $100 bill and a $20 bill in it. Now I have a $100 bill, a $10 bill and two $5 bills.”
“Yes,” the boy said, and smiled.
