But when he returned, the money was gone.‎ Gary‎ then asked his brother Gavin, “Did you see that twenty-dollar bill on the cash register?” Gavin said that he had not. But Gary did not let it go and kept questioning. “Twenty-dollar bills can’t get up and walk away by themselves! Surely you must have seen it.” There was accusation in Gary’s voice. Tempers began to rise and anger grew. “I said I didn’t see it!” Gavin raised his voice.‎ The quarrel divided the young men and they could no longer work together. Later, a wall was built in the center of the store. For twenty years, they never said a word to each other.‎ One day, a strange man came to the store.

I entered this store from the back door and saw a twenty-dollar bill on the cash register. And I took it. All these years I hadn’t been able to forget that. I had to come back and ask for your forgiveness(宽恕).”‎ The stranger felt very surprised when seeing tears come to the eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him. “Would you please go next door and tell the same story to the man in the store?” Gary asked. Then something surprised the stranger even more --- after hearing his story, the two middle-aged men hugged each other and cried together in the front of the wall of the store.‎ After twenty years, the wall of anger that set them apart finally came down.‎ 初三英语 第10页 共8页 ‎ ‎69.

They do part-time jobs in order to make money and get some working and social experience. Traditionally, they get jobs as servers, cashiers, and lifeguards at swimming pools. ‎ These days, however, more and more students are working at dotcoms. Dotcoms are Internet-based companies which offer goods and services online. Today’s young people already know a lot about computers, and they can quickly learn more. The pay is also usually much better than at the traditional summer jobs.‎ There are other advantages besides the pay. Students see dotcom jobs as a good start on their future. In addition to good experience, the work is also enjoyable for most. On top of this, their co-workers treat them with respect.‎ Dotcoms are new and need new ways of thinking. Imagination and passion are the most important things. So some students are even leaving school to start their own dotcoms. A recent survey of dotcom leaders finds that 2% of them are under 30 years old, and 12% never finished university.‎ ‎21. make money 22. learn more 23. good start 24. also enjoyable 25. leaving school Part 2 ‎ II. 26.
