1. One day I was walking down the street when I noticed a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk. I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owner’s name. 一天，我正在街上走的时候，突然看到人行道上有一只褐色的小皮夹。我拾起那个皮夹，打开来看看是否能找到失主的名字。

2. There was nothing inside it except some change and an old photograph――a picture of a woman and a little girl about ten years old，who looked like the woman’s daughter. 皮夹里有一些零钱和一张旧照片，别的什么也没有。照片上是一位妇女和一个10岁左右的小女孩。那女孩子看起来像是她的女儿。

3. I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station，where I handed it to the desk sergeant. Before I left，the sergeant took down my name and address. 我将照片放回皮夹里，把皮夹交到警察所去。我把皮夹交给了那位当班的警官。我离开之前，警官记下了我的名字和地址。

4. That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle. They had also invited a young girl about eighteen years old so that there would be four people at table. 那天傍晚，我到姑父姑母家吃饭。他们还邀请了一位18岁左右的年轻姑娘，于是，共进晚餐的一共是四个人。

5. The girl’s face was familiar. I was quite sure that we had not met before，and I could not remember where I had seen her. 这个姑娘有点面熟，我确信我和她以前没有见过面，我也记不起在哪里见过她。

6. In the course of conversation，however，the young girl happened to mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon. All at once I realized where I had seen her. 然而，在谈话当中，这位年轻姑娘偶然提到她在那天下午丢失皮夹的事情。

7. She was the little girl in the photograph，although she was now much older. She was very surprised，of course，when I was able to describe her wallet to her. 原来她就是照片上的那个小女孩，尽管她现在大多了。在我给她讲述那个皮夹的时候，她的确感到很惊讶。

8. Then I explained that I had recognized her from the photograph I had found in the wallet. My uncle insisted on her going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet. 接着我解释说，我是从皮夹里的照片上认出她来的。我的姑夫坚持要姑娘马上到警察所去认领皮夹。

9. As the police sergeant handed it over，the young girl thanked him and me over and over again. The police sergeant said that it was an amazing coincidence that I had not only found the wallet，but also the person who had lost it. 当警官交还皮夹的时候，那位年轻姑娘再三地向他、向我道谢。警官说这真是太巧了，我不但拾到了皮夹，而且还找到了失主。

10. From then on that young girl and I became good friends. It seemed as if from the heaven someone had dropped a delicious sweet pie. A few years later we were married and got a pretty baby，white and chubby，just like a foreign doll. 从此以后，那年轻姑娘同我成了好朋友。这真像是有人从天上扔给我一个甜的馅儿饼。几年后我们结了婚，生了个乖娃娃，又白又胖，活像个洋娃娃。
