My husband and I sat outside.A small child about three came up the street，accompanied by her mother.As she saw another girl a few feet away，she gave her admiring comment，“Mommy，I like her dress.”Her mom replied，“Well，why don’t you go and tell her？”
The little girl walked shyly toward the girl wearing the pretty dress.The other one，likely the same age，was standing with her back turned，alongside her parents.They had not heard the compliment.Receiving no response，this little girl hesitated.My husband said to the other girl，“Someone wants to tell you something.”As she turned around，connection was made.Once again，the little one announced “I like your dress，” and upon hearing those words，the other one gave her a big smile and excitedly shared “Look，it’s a spinning(旋转的) dress！” at which moment she began to spin in circles.Both of them smiled widely.
Now，the one stopped spinning and said，“It’s my favorite dress and I have shoes that match！” She took off running toward a stroller(婴儿车) parked nearby.
The mom and daughter started to head down the street，thinking the encounter(邂逅) had ended.Moments later，the “spinning dress girl” reappeared，shoes in hand，looking for her new friend who had seemingly disappeared.Now，an elderly couple，seated on a bench，had obviously been watchful of all this.The man stopped the child，saying，“There’s someone coming behind you.”Then we saw one showed and the other

(2017·天津一中3月考)
A thief who dropped a winning lottery ticket at the scene of his crime has been given a lesson in honesty.His victim，who picked up the ticket，then claimed the 25,000 prize，managed to trace him，and handed over the cash.The robbery happened when maths professor Vinicio Sabbatucci,58，was changing a tire on an Italian motorway.Another motorist，who stopped “to help”，stole a suitcase from his car and drove off.The professor found the dropped ticket and put it in his pocket before driving home to Ascoli in eastern Italy.
Next day，he saw the lottery results on TV and，taking out the ticket，realized it was a winner.He claimed the 60 million lire(里拉) prize.Then he began a battle
with his conscience.Finally，he decided he could not keep the money despite having
been robbed.He advertised in newspapers and on the radio，saying，“I’m trying to find the man who robbed me.I have 60 million lire for him—a lottery win.Please meet me.Anonymity(匿名) guaranteed.”
