She stayed at a hotel near the central market. She had seldom been to the city before, and was very excited about what she would find. On the first morning of her visit, as she walked from the hotel to the market, she passed a beggar(乞丐). He was holding up a notice, which said, “Blind from birth. Please give generously(慷慨地)．” Julia felt sorry for the blind beggar and she bent down and put a dollar coin into his bowl. “Thank you，” he said. The same thing happened again the following day. On the third day, however, Julia did not have a dollar coin. She had only fifty cents, so she dropped this into the beggars bowl. “What have I done wrong？” the beggar said. “Why are you so stingy(吝啬的)today？” Julia was very surprised at what the beggar said. “How do you know I havent given you a dollar？”she said. “If youre blind, you cant know what coin I put into your bowl.” “Ah，” explained the beggar, “the truth is that Im not blind. Im not blind. Im just looking after this place for the regular beggar while hes on holiday.” “On holiday？” Julia said. “And what exactly does your blind friend do on holiday？” “He goes into the countryside，” the man said, “and takes photographs.
