Directions: Read the story. Then answer the questions below.

Leonard James is a homeless man. For him, life is always hard.

He is always hungry. His shoes have holes in them. He needs a haircut. His
clothes are old and dirty.

“What I would do with one hundred dollars!” Leonard says. This is a game he
likes to play with himself to take his mind off things.

He is walking down the street on a Thursday night. It is winter. The air is cold.

“If I had one hundred dollars, I could buy new socks,” he says. He continues to
walk down the street.

“If I had one hundred dollars, I could get a haircut,” he says. He continues to walk
down the street.

“If I had one hundred dollars, I could buy new pants,” he says. He continues to
walk down the street.

“If I had one hundred dollars, I could get a hamburger,” he says. His stomach
rumbles at the thought.

“If I had …..” Leonard looks down at the sidewalk. He cannot believe what he
sees!

Someone has lost his wallet. Leonard picks it up. Inside are five twenty-dollar
bills.

“One hundred dollars!” Leonard says. He is very excited. “Now I can buy
everything I want!”

Leonard begins to think.

“But this is not my money,” he says.

Leonard goes to the police station. He gives a police officer the wallet and
money.

“Thank you,” says the police officer. “You are a very honest man.”

Leonard smiles. He turns around and begins to leave the police station.

“Hold on,” the police officer says. He reaches in his own pocket and gives
Leonard ten dollars. “Get yourself something to eat.”
