2 . A Goodwill employee finds $42,000 in donated clothing and returns it to the owner.

The discovery came during a regular day on the job as Andrea Lessing, a goodwill employee, was performing her routine quality examination on closing items on the sales floor. As she pulled out two sweaters tied together from a donation box, she felt something heavy left. She first assumed the items were just books. When she pulled the sweaters apart, to her astonishment, she found lots of   envelopes filled with $100 bills. The cash was in $100 bills and totaled $ 42,000 dollars.

Andrea Lessing is used to discovering unique treasures in the varied collection of donated items her store receives daily. She always tries to be a good example to her daughter, so she immediately did the right thing and reported the cash finding. Luckily, the store's manager was then able to locate and return the money to the donator who had mistakenly placed the cash in the wrong box.

Andrea, mother of a six year old girl, admitted it was hard for her to do with that much money. Some might have thought that it was Andrea's lucky day, having a small fortune. However, the temptation to keep the cash by herself was just a passing thought. Andrea's honest nature inspired her to do the right thing.

Without hesitation, she handed the cash over to the store's manager so they could find the right owner. Andrea was not expecting a reward, but the owner of the money surprised her with a 1000 reward. Andrea was teary eyed and overcome with joy as her “good deed” flowed right back to her. She plans to spend part of the reward money on a memorable birthday party for her daughter.

7 . Art has been described in popular culture as something only particularly educated or wealthy people can enjoy.     1    Anyone can come to appreciate art with a bit of time and effort. Here are some tips that can help.

Be open minded. You can think of going to see new kinds of arts as having new experiences rather than just seeing art.     2    Do you feel excited? Calm ? Confused? Art can cause a wide range of emotional responses, so do your best to be aware of yours.

    3    It's important to make efforts to make meaning out of a piece of art. Because every person has a different set of unique experiences, it's right for every person who views a piece of art to walk away with a different understanding of it.

Try enjoying abstract art. To achieve it, think about what catches your eye first in the piece and why the artist might have wanted your attention to go there. Abstract art can be fun because it's like a puzzle. You really have to give it some thought.     4    

Learn what you like and dislike. As you view more and more art, you will start to develop an understanding of what you like and dislike in a piece of art.This can help you seek out similar artists.     5    Artist statements or descriptive brochures can sometimes be misleading, so if you unexpectedly don't like a certain type of art, that's fine.

A．You needn't love everything you see.

B．However, this couldn't be further from the truth.

C．Try to come up with your own story about art.

D．Use your imagination to help you enjoy it more!

E．Only in that way can you come up with a possible meaning for it.

F．What's more, be in touch with your own emotions as you view art.

G．The emotion the artist is trying to express isn't always immediately clear.
