【英文原文】

摘要:有一个劳改犯人在外出修路的过程中,在路上捡到了1000元钱。他不假思索的把它交了上去。

A prisoner picked up 1,000yuan in the course of building the road outside the prison. He handed it out without hesitation. However, someone in charge of the prison said to him in contempt, “Stop cheating! With your own money, play such a trick to bribe me; what you want to gain back is the reduced sentence; people of your sort are not honest.”

In total despair, the prisoner believed that no one in the world would trust him any more. So he escaped from prison that night.

On his way to flight, he plundered money and values without restraint. After plundering enough pelf, he took a train bound for the border. The carriages were so crowded that he had to stand close to a water closet. At this moment, a quite beautiful girl walked into the closet, and found that the latch was broken when she closed the door. She stepped out and whispered to him, “Sir, could you guard the door for me?”

In a daze for a second, he, looking into the pure eyes of the girl, nodded his head. The girl went into the closet with a blush; and he guarded the door tightly like a loyal guard.

At that very moment, he changed his mind suddenly. At the next stop he got off the train, and went to give himself up to the police at the train station.

Trust is the most precious thing in this world. It cannot be bought, or gained by lure or force. It comes deep from one’s soul, and lives in the clear spring of the soul. It can redeem the soul and make the soul and make the heart full of purity and confidence.
