In 1971 a young man who grew up very poor was traveling across the country,trying to make a new start for himself.Along the way he had 1.completely run out of money and was forced to spend the night in his 2.car.
This continued until one 3.morning,after a week of sleeping in his car,he walked
4.nervously into a diner and ordered a big breakfast.After eating his first good
meal in weeks,he found himself5.lying to the waiter,telling him he had lost his wallet.The waiter,6.who was also the owner,walked behind the stool where the young man had been sitting.He 7.bent down,and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor.“Son,you must have 8.dropped this,” the owner said.The young man couldn’t believe his luck!He quickly paid for the
9.breakfast,left a tip,10.bought gas with the change,and headed West.
On the way out of town,it dawned on him.‘Maybe nobody dropped the money at all.Maybe the owner of the restaurant just knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t embarrass me.What a kind person he is!If I have the11.chance in the future,I will do the same to help others.”
Now older,the man lives near Kansas City.Each year he gives away thousands of dollars to poor people.He is known as the ‘Secret Santa,’ because at Christmas time each year,he personally hands money out to those homeless people on the street,at laundromats,and at diners.Last year,he gave more than $50,000 away in Kansas City and New York City.
‘I’ve lived the story,so I know it’s definitely more blessed to12.give than receive,because it comes back to you many,many times over,’ he says.He is 13.grateful to be able to pass the 15.kindness he received so many years ago.‘It’s something that never happened to them before,’ he says.‘It restores some faith in humanity.对不起，我没说清楚，我要这篇文章的翻译，谢谢。1971个年轻人成长的很差正在周游全国，努力为自己创造一个新的开始。一路上他1.completely钱用完了，只好在他的2.car过夜。这持续了一个星期3.morning，睡在他的车后，他走了4.nervously到一家餐馆点了一顿丰盛的早餐。吃完后他第一次好餐在周，他发现himself5。说谎的服务员，告诉他他已经失去了他的钱包。服务员，6.who也是业主，走在后面的凳子上坐过的年轻人。他7.bent下来，并想出了一个20美元的账单，看上去倒在地板上。“儿子，你必须8.dropped这，”主人说。年轻人不相信自己的运气！他为有偿快9.breakfast，留下小费，以改变10.bought气，朝西。在城镇的路上，他明白了。也许没有人把钱扔在所有。也许这家餐馆的老板就知道我有麻烦了，他在某种程度上，并没有为难我，帮助我。他是个什么样的人！如果我有11。在未来的机会，我会做同样的事情去帮助别人。”现在年纪大了，他住在堪萨斯市附近的。每一年他放弃了数千美元的穷人。他被称为“神秘的圣诞老人，因为在圣诞节的时候，每一年，他亲自动手的钱给那些无家可归的人在街上，在自助洗衣店，并在餐车。去年，他给了超过50000美元的堪萨斯市和纽约市的了。我生活的故事，所以我知道肯定会有更多的祝福12。给予比接受，因为它回来给你很多，很多次了，”他说。他是13.grateful能够通过他很多年前收到的15.kindness。“这是从未发生过的故事之前，”他说。“在人类恢复一些信心。谢谢啦！麻烦采纳
