完形填空( )
I worked for a short time as a cashier(收银员)at a restaurant a few months ago. I also helped to clean up the tables when it was very 16. .
One night, just before Christmas, I found a large black 17. on the floor near one of the tables. I guessed I should check it to find out who the owner was, but I was very busy at the time. And I imagined that if there was something valuable in the wallet, the owner would be back. Sure enough, an hour later a man 18. the restaurant and asked if anyone had found a wallet. I asked him to describe the lost wallet. After he described it 19. , I gave him the wallet. He expressed 20. thanks when I handed it to him. He asked me if I had 21. it, and I told him “No”. At once he opened it and showed that it had nearly $800. He took out a twenty-dollar bill and thanked me again for my honesty. Then he 22. and walked away.
Thinking about the whole thing later, I wanted to know whether I would have been honest if I had known 23. was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the owner 24. no one returned to get it, I might keep it. But it also came into my mind that I actually saved someone’s Christmas plan by finding and returning the wallet. The good feeling it gave me was 25. anything I could buy.
