阅读理解 Children always appreciate small gifts of money. Father, of course, provide a regular supply of pocket-money, but uncles and aunts are always a source of extra income. With some children, small sums _go a long way. If sixpences are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside the money- box. Only very thrifty children manage to fill up a money-box. For most of them, sixpence is a small price to pay for a satisfying bar of chocolate. My nephew, George, has a money-box but it is always empty. Very few of the sixpences I have given to him found their way there. I gave him sixpence yesterday and advised him to save it. Instead, he bought himself sixpence worth of trouble. On his way to the sweet shop, he dropped his sixpence and it rolled along the pavement and then disappeared down a drain. George took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and pushed his right arm through the drain cover. However, he couldn't find his sixpence anywhere, and what's more, he couldn't get his arm out. A crowd of people gathered round him and a lady rubbed his arm with soap and butter, but George was firmly stuck. The fire-brigade was called and two firemen freed George using a special of greese . George was not too upset by his sixpence because the lady who owns the sweet shop heard about his trouble and rewarded him with a large box of chocolate. 1.
