Mr.and Mrs. Gordon were sitting on the sand, reading their magazines. Mr. Gordon was too stingy(吝嗇)to rent a chair. Their twelve-year-old daughter,Sandra, was playing at the water's edge. Suddenly a huge wave
lifted  Sandra up and carried her out to sea. Fortunately,
a lifeguard was on duty and he saw the wave carry Sandra away.
He ran along the beach and dived into the sea. He swam quickly to where
the girl,with her head only just above the water, was shouting for help. She was very frightened. When the lifeguard reached her,? she struggled(掙扎) with him, as drowning people often do.

Fortunately, he had. “That was quick work,young man,”Mr. Gordon said. He turned to his wife, “Give the lifeguard a dollar.” “A dollar!” Sandra cried. “Dad,how can you give him a dollar! He saved my life. I was half dead.” “Quite right, girl?” Mr. Gordon said, pleased by his daughter's awareness(知道) of the value of money. He turned to his wife again and said, “She's right. She was only half dead. Give him fifty cents. ”
