听力原文: When Walter was eight years old, in 1908, he used to work for an old lady who lived in his village. Every day, before and after school, he would chop wood, light fires, and go shopping for her. He was paid 5 pence every week, which was not very much even then.
This old lady kept so many cats that she did not know exactly how many. One day, one of the cats was found dead in the garden, and the lady, who was very upset, asked Walter to dig a grave and bury it. Walter did this and was given 10 pence. He couldn't help noticing that he got twice as much for burying the cat as for a whole week's work. This made him think. He had many friends whose fathers, the local farmers, often had to shoot cats to protect their chickens. He offered his friends 2 pence for every dead cat they brought him. He would then place the cat in the old lady's garden where she would find it, think it was one of her own, and give Walter 10 pence for burying it.
By the time he left school, Walter had saved quite a lot of money. Later in life he became a very successful businessman.
