Mark Twain（马克·吐温）is a famous American writer. He liked to know something about others' childhood. But one day someone asked him, “Could you remember the first money you got?” Mark Twain thought for a long time, then he answered, “Yes. I think I can't forget it all my life.” “Why? Is it much?” “No. It was only five dollars,” he said. “I was at school at that time. Some students didn't study hard in our class. And they didn't often finish their homework. They never respect（尊敬）teachers and often damaged desks or chairs. So our teachers were very angry with them. Then they made some rules so that we could take care of the desks and chairs. One of the rules was that anyone who damaged the desk or chair with a pencil or knife would be beaten before the whole school or have to pay for five dollars.”

　　“Did you damage that?” “Yes. One day I damaged my desk. I was very afraid.But I had to tell my father about it. I hoped he could give me five dollars. When my father understood what I did, he agreed to give me money and let me hand over（上交）to our teacher. I felt very happy. But to my surprise, before giving me the money, he gave me a beating. Because my father said it was too bad to have his face lost in front of the whole school.” “Bad luck! What did you do with the five dollars?” “Oh, it sounded very funny. I thought I had been beaten once, so I wasn't afraid of it any more. At last, I decided to receive another beating at school and keep the five dollars for myself. That was the first money I ever got.”
