The student turned to the professor, saying, “Let's play the man a5 ,We will hide his shoes, and6ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his7when he cannot find them.”
“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never8ourselves at the 9of the poor. But you are10, and may give yourself a much greater11by means of the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and 12how the discovery affects him.” The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes. The poor man soon finished his work, and came13the field to the path14he had left his coat and shoes. While15his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes; but feeling16, he stopped down to feel 17 it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his face. He now put the money into his pocket, but his 18was doubled on finding the other coin. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and uttered aloud a fervent(热烈的)thanksgiving, in which he19his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread. The student stood there deeply20, and his eyes filled with tears.

As my eyes adjusted (适应) to the dark, I saw a metal container that I 5as a World War II ammo (弹药) box; my grandfather used to store 6used on his farm in this ammo boxes. I opened the cover and was 7 at what I saw: a lot of money 8 up in orange rope. God, I've found, like $800!
But there was more than one box of9 I found another seven boxes10to the edge, plus two big black dustbin bags full of money.11 about $45,000. In my attic, I won't lie, my first 12 was that this was a 13 from God—the money to 14 this old house and to make life15for our two young sons. But I 16 that the right thing I should do was to17the money to the former owners. So I called them and asked them to come.
They were18 of course, not only about the money but that I was returning it. They had recently 19 over the house and said it must have been their dad who had20 the money.
