Section B
Last year when Tom graduated from school, he went to Chicago. He didn’t like to work on his father’s farm and hoped to find a job in a big city. He went from one company to another but no one wanted him. With little money left, he got to the station, sad and tired. All he wanted to do was go back to his small town. It was very late at night and the station was full of people. They were waiting to buy tickets of the last train. Tom bought the last ticket, and he was very happy.
At that time, a woman with a crying baby walked to him and asked him to sell her the ticket. He gave her the ticket because he thought they needed it more than he did. After the train left,he sat on the bench (长竟)and didn’t know where to go. Suddenly, an old man came and said, u Young man, Fve seen what you did for the woman. I need a good young man like you.
