Hunter Shamatt lost his wallet while he was on a Frontier Airlines flight from Omaha. Upon realizing that his wallet was lost, he contacted the airline to see if anyone had turned it in, but to no avail. Since the wallet contained his ID, a signed paycheck, his debit card, and $60 in cash, he “feared the worst”.
Shortly after the flight, however, Hunter was surprised to receive a package in the mail from an anonymous(匿名的) sender. Inside was his wallet— along with an additional $40 in cash. “I rounded your cash up to an even $100 so you could celebrate getting your wallet back. Have fun!!!”, read a letter that was enclosed with the package.
Hunter’s mother, Jeannie, posted a photo of the letter to social media in hopes that they would be able to track down the sender and thank him for his kindness. All they could know was that the sender’s initials were signed: “T.B”.
The good sender was later identified as Todd Brown, a father-of-five who was delighted at the chance to “have a little fun” with helping out a hard-working stranger.
“I saw he was just a kid, 20 years old, he had a paycheck in there, so I figured, ‘Well, he’s doing his best to make ends meet.’” Brown told Yahoo Lifestyle.
“Hunter was very thankful. He told me he has some student loans and a car payment that he needed to make so the timing was right,” Brown added. “They assumed it was gone forever. So when he opened it, he just started screaming, ‘No way! No way!’”
Brown says that he often tries to do good deeds without any recognition and that’s why he neglected to sign his full name on the letter, but Jeannie later insisted on praising the sender on social media.
“This story is more about restoring faith in people than anything. I personally want to thank Todd Brown for restoring faith that there are amazing people out there and that the world is not as cruel as it’s being made out to be.” she wrote on Facebook.

It’s common that a Japanese-American bows on the phone—but only in Japanese. Behaviors and manners can become so routine that they appear even when there’s no need for them. Those who are bilingual(双语的) and bicultural know first-hand that how we behave can depend on what language we are speaking. Scientists have shown that who you are in the moment can depend on the language you are using at that time.
This is because when you have an experience, the language you are using becomes associated with it. For bilingual people, this means certain memories are more closely associated with one language than the other—a phenomenon called “language-dependent memory”. For example, a childhood memory is more likely to be remembered when the language spoken during that childhood event is spoken again.
How we think and feel can thus change depending on what language we are using. For example, people who are bilingual have an intensified stress response when listening to the words of scolding in a native language. This may be, in part, because our early memories associated with learning a “bad” word or being scolded by our parents happened in our native language.
Because emotions play a key role in how we make decisions, people are often more sensible when making choices in the less emotional foreign language. Language can even influence our decisions. When asked whether they would be willing to give one person’s life to save a group, people who speak more than one language are much more likely to say “yes” when answering in a foreign language. The unpleasant feelings that can prevent us from making difficult choices are reduced when we’re using a non-native language.
The language we speak has an influence on how we think, feel, and even behave. In a way, knowing different languages can provide people with a variety of views through which to see the world.
