    Jenny looked at the store window. There was nothing that she wanted more than a Happy Hannah doll. It was $29.95. Unluckily, Jenny didn't even have the 95 cents.

    As she crossed the street, she thought about doing her brother's housework, cleaning the floor, washing the dishes all month, but even then she would have only eleven dollars. Suddenly, something small and pink in the snow caught her eyes.

    Jenny walked over and picked it up from the snow. It was a beautiful wallet. She opened the wallet and found many dollars and a woman's driver's license in it. Jenny put the wallet into her bag quickly. She turned around and walked back.

    Jenny's heart beat(跳动) fast as she went into the store. She had long dreamed about this moment, but something didn't feel right. As she got to the Happy Hannah dolls, she pushed away her feelings. She grabbed(抓起) one and walked toward the checkout.

    As Jenny was waiting to pay, her mobile phone rang. It was her grandma. Jenny's heart was suddenly filled with love and warmth when she thought of her. She put the doll down and answered the phone.

    “Hi, Grandma? I'm going to be a little bit late tonight...Alright...I love you, too.” Jenny left the store and walked all the way to 301 West Street. The woman who answered the door looked sad.

    “Here, I found this in the snow,” Jenny said.

    “Oh, good God! This is the money for the orphanage(孤儿院)! Thank you!”

    After doing her brother's housework for three months, Jenny finally got a Happy Hannah doll. She was so happy because she could play with her doll and look her grandma in the eye.

完形填空

    All kinds of people come in to have their shoes shined. Most folks are friendly. But this man was different.

    “How much do you make a week, boy?” he asked me. I felt he was 1 at me. He kept giving a sharp 2 around every now and then. All the time I kept 3 where I'd seen his face. Suddenly I knew. I'd seen his4in the post office many times. He was the big robber 5 by the police in three states!

    “You know,” he was saying, “it's imagination that people lack. You'll never get anywhere as a 6 boy.”

    I kept brushing away on his shoes as 7 as I could. The sooner I finished, the better. He said, “When I was sixteen, I had8 $2,500 of my own.”

    That reminded me of something. Was it $2,500 or $5,000 or $7, 500? I wasn't 9. I knew a big reward was 10 for him.

    But what could I do about it?11him with a can of shoe polish? A man of his 12 could grind (碾碎) me into the floor. If only someone would come in!

    He kept talking away. “Along with13, it takes courage. The courage to take a chance. Start something on a shoestring.”

    Suddenly I saw Officer Dailey 14 across the street. Then, real fast, I began tightening the man's shoestrings.

    The policeman was at the window when I cried out, “Officer Dailey,15! This man's a robber.”

    “16,” the man shouted angrily. He started to jump off the stand. But he didn't go the way he 17. He fell flat on his face and knocked himself out cold.

    “That was pretty 18 of you,” the officer said. “You'll get a reward of $7,500 for him.”

    “Well, it really wasn't my 19,” I said. “It was his. He told me if you had courage and imagination you could start something big on a 20.”
