A

As she walked from a post office, Talon Curtis thought she

’

d found one of those false checks

on the ground that screamed something like

“

$$35 7,959.55

”

in big letters and

“

This is not a real

check

”

in

much

smaller

ones.

But

just

as

she

was

about

to

put

the

paper

into

a

trash

can,

she

noticed it was a real signature (

签名

).

“

I couldn

’

t believe it. I almost passed out,

”

Curtis told the Associated Press on Wednesday.

“

I

have never seen a check that big.

”

She immediately set out to find its owner, but it was Saturday afternoon and the banks were

closing. On Monday, with help from KCAL-TV reporter Dave Malkoff, she found out where the

check

’

s owner lived, and also learnt that the owner had arrived at her bank very worriedly.

Curtis said she spoke very shortly with the woman on the phone about a possible meeting,

but Pacific Mercantile Bank told her to mail the check to them instead.

Not

willing

to

take a

chance

on

the

mail,

Curtis

brought

it

to

the

bank personally.

A

bank

employee said they had got it.

Curtis said she never thought of keeping the check for herself, and she declined the woman

’

s

offer

of

a

reward.

She

didn

’

t

want

any

money

from

that

woman.

Still,

she

’

s

just

a

little

disappointed.

“

I just wanted to see her face,

”

Curtis said, laughing.

“

I just wanted to let her know that there

are honest people left in this world.

”

41. When Curtis said,

“

I have never seen a check that big

”

in Paragraph 3, she meant _______.

A. the number on the check was in big letters.

B. the check was worth a large sum of money.

C. the check was really big.

D. her eyes turned big when she found this check by chance.

42. What does the underlined word

“

declined

”

in Paragraph 6 mean?

A. Returned

B. Refused

C. Received

D. Shared

43. According to the passage, what disappointed Curtis?

A. That she didn

’

t know what the owner of the check looked like.

B. That people don

’

t believe there are some honest people.
