阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Who says honesty is dead? Last Tuesday morning Alan Reed, a student, was at the bank. He asked to take out $ 50 but the bank clerk mistakenly gave him five twenties instead of five tens. For a few seconds he wondered what to do. Should he give the extra money back? Keep it? If he kept it, he could buy several new books, or he could take his friend Alice to a fancy dinner. Probably no one would ever notice. Besides, this would make up for all the times he’d been overcharged. But then he looked at the clerk. She was a middle-aged woman with a sweet face, and she reminded him of his mother. She had been nice to him, and she looked pressured in her work. Then it occurred to him that the lady would probably get in trouble. Worst of all, Alan felt, he would probably feel guilty about keeping the extra cash. So Alan gave back the money.

The bank clerk was so impressed that someone was honest enough to return money not rightfully his that she contacted the newspaper. So there you have it. What would you have done if you’d been in Alan’s position?

Everyone has an experience they would never forget. Some are embarrassing, some are moving, and some teach us a lesson. Here is a story of mine.

Last Sunday I went fishing. After setting up my fishing rod（钓鱼竿）with bait（鱼饵）, I sat down on the bank of the lake. But two hours later, I didn’t catch any fish. I got very angry and began to pack up my stuff（收拾东西）, preparing to go back home.

Just then, I saw an old man sitting near me. To my surprise, his basket was full of fish, so I went over to him, wanting to know why. “Excuse me, but how long have you sat here?” I asked. “About four hours,”he answered. “Four hours?”I couldn’t believe my ears. “Yes. It’s very important to be patient,” the old man said. “ Don”t consider fishing a tiring sport. Just enjoy it.”

Suddenly, I understand what he said. I must learn to be patient. Then I sat there and waited for fish patiently. I felt a fish touch the bait, but I didn’t move and waited for the right moment to reel it in（卷收钓鱼线）. At last, I caught it. This made me very happy. In the following six hours, I caught over 10 fish.

On my way home, I thought what had happened on the bank. I gradually realized that the secret of success was patience.

No One Dares to Help

On a recent Sunday, I was buying groceries in a supermarket when I heard the sound of a car accident. It was close but not very close, so I continued shopping.

As I took a right turn on Munadhama Street, I saw a man lying on the ground in a small pool of blood. He wasn’t dead.

The idea of stopping to help or to take him to a hospital crossed my mind, but I didn’t dare. Cars passed without stopping. Pedestrians and shop owners kept doing what they were doing, pretending nothing had happened.

I was still looking at the wounded man and blaming myself for not stopping to help. Other shoppers peered at him from a distance, sorrowful and sympathetic, but did nothing.

I went on to another grocery store, staying for about five minutes while shopping for tomatoes, onions and other vegetables. During that time, the man managed to sit up and wave to passing cars.

No one stopped. No one did anything. No one lifted a finger.

The injured died on the street. The only reaction came from a woman in the grocery store. In a low voice, she said, “My God, bless his soul.”

An offer of aid could have saved the man’s life.

A young manager passed by a beggar selling pencils. He dropped a dollar into the beggar’s bowl, then turned back and took up a handful of pencils, and said, “They are priced right. After all, you are a business person and so am I”. Then he left.

Six months later, both the manager and the beggar turned up at a party. The beggar went up to the manager and said, “You probably don’t recognize me but I remember you.” He then talked about the incident that happened six months before. The manager said, “Since you have reminded me, I do remember that you were begging. What are doing here in your suit and tie?”

The beggar replied, “ You probably don’t know what you did for me that day. You were

the first person in my life who gave me back my dignity. After you left, I thought to myself, what am I doing here? Why am I begging? I decided to do something helpful to my life. I packed my bag, started working and here I am. I just want to thank you for giving me back my dignity. That incident changed my life.”

What changed in the beggar’s life? What changed was that his self-esteem went up and so did his performance. This is the magic of self-esteem in our lives.

Dear Patti,

I’m writing to you for some advice on my studies. As you know, football is a very popular sport in the world and I am attracted to it and I have fallen in deep love with it, which makes me feel so crazy. I have been spending lots of time doing many things related to it, like watching football matches, reading newspapers and magazines, and searching the Web for more information about football. As a result, it has certainly disturbed my normal study. Though I know to be a football fan is my hobby and my major objective is to learn more knowledge in school, I can’t concentrate on my lessons and gradually I am tired of them. I am still a senior two middle school students, and I’ll have my own business even when I grow up, so I am not likely to do a job in the field of football. But now I can’t stop myself from getting involved further with football. So I feel very depressed and want to know how to deal with the contradiction (矛盾) between my studies and hobbies.

Sincerely yours,

Li Ming

I have a friend Monty Roberts who has a horse ranch (牧马场) in San Ysidro. When he was a

senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.

The next day he handed it in to the teacher. On the front was a large red F. The boy with the dream asked, “Why did I receive an F?”

The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant (四处奔波的) family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll have to pay large stud fees. There's no way you could ever do it.”

He stated, “You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.”

The best part of the story is that two summers ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on his ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, “Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids' dreams. Fortunately you had enough belief not to give up yours.”

学校最近组织了一次中美学生交流活动，你参加其中的“坚守信念”的讨论。读完Monty Roberts的故事之后，你准备写一份发言稿，题目是“Hold on to One's Belief”，内容要点包括：

1．以约30个词概括Monty Roberts的成长故事；

2．然后以约120个词谈谈你对坚守信念的看法，内容包括：

(1) 坚守信念对一个人成长的重要性；

(2) 举例子论证“坚守信念能使梦想成真”。
