Mr Grey was the manager (经理) of a small office

in London. He lived in the country, and came to work
by train. He liked walking from the station to his office if it was not raining, because it gave him some exercises. One morning he was walking along the street when a stranger (陌生人) stopped him and said to him," You
may not remember me, sir, but seven years ago I came to London without any money in my pocket (口袋). I
stopped you in this street and asked you to lend (借) me some money, and you lent me five pounds (英镑),
because you said that you were happy to take a chance (机会) so as to give a man a start on the road to
success." Mr Grey thought for a few moments and then said," Yes, I remember you. Go on (继续) with your
story."" Well," answered the stranger," are you still willing to take a chance?" 翻译

Grey 先生是伦敦一家办公室的经理。他住在乡村，坐火车来工作。他喜欢从车站走到办公室如果不下雨的话，因为这可以让他运动。一天早上，他正沿着街道走着，一个陌生人拦住他并说道，“你可能不记得我了，先生，但是七年前当我一无所有来到伦敦，当时也是在这条街道拦住你想你借钱，你借给我5英镑。因为你说乐意冒险来来帮助一个人成功。”Grey先生想了一会儿，然后说道，“是的，我记得你。继续说你的故事。”“好的”陌生人回答道，“你还愿意再冒一次险吗？“
