Maria is a cashier(收银员)in a big shop in New York.People can buy medicine,watches,sweets,and many other things.They pay Maria for the things they buy.
At the shop people can also buy lottery tickets(彩票).They pay one dollar for a lottery ticket.There are pictures on the tickets.Some pictures are winning pictures,and some pictures are losing pictures.Most people win nothing.Some people win two dollars.Only a few lucky people win thousands of dollars.
One day Maria was working at the shop.She sold three lottery tickets to a woman.The woman looked at the pictures on the tickets.Then she threw the tickets on the counter and left.“These are losing tickets,” she said to herself.
Maria picked up the tickets and looked at them.To her great surprise,one of them was a winning ticket!
“Excuse me!” Maria called to the woman.“You won $50 000!”
The woman came back to the counter.She took the winning ticket and looked at it carefully.“I can't believe it.” she said,“I won $50 000.” The woman walked away slowly,looking at the ticket again and again.Then she turned around,“Thank you! Thank you very much!” she said to Maria excitedly.
Why did Maria give the woman the ticket? Why didn’t she keep the ticket? Didn't she want the $50 000?
“Of course I wanted the money.” Maria said,“but it was her ticket,not mine.”
“Well,I'm sorry that you aren't rich,” her mother said,“But I'm happy that you're so honest.”
