The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire. They waited outside his house in anticipation to share the good news with him. When he arrived home that evening, he was met by one of the officers who told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire.

　　He said nothing at all: he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, got into the train, and sat at the street corner and continued to beg.

　　Obviously, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing, commitment(专心，敬业). We should remain true to our course, although it may mean committing ourselves to things that people around us would normally disapprove. Just keep it in mind that commitment attracts wealth.

　　56.Why did the headmaster tell us the story?

　　A. To enjoy ourselves.

　　B. To teach us how to make money.

　　C. To tell us the importance of commitment.

　　D. To tell us not to look down upon beggars.

　　57. According to the passage which of the following is true?

　　A. The old man made a living by begging.

　　B. The old man was excited to be a millionaire.

　　C. The old man became a millionaire by begging every weekday.
