One day Mark Twain （马克.吐温）told a story about his first money.

Schoolboys in those days didn't respect（尊敬）their teachers. They didn't take care of school things, either. The school had a rule: If a student damaged（损坏）his desk, the teacher would beat（打） him in front of the whole school, or the student had to pay（赔偿） five dollars. Mark Twain once found his desk was damaged（被损坏） in some way, he had to tell his father about the school's rule. His father thought it would be too bad if the teacher beat his son in public（当众）, so he agreed to give him five dollars. But before giving him the money, the father gave his son a good beating. The next day Mark Twain decided he would take another beating at school, so he could keep the five dollars. In this way, he got his first money.
