thousand eyes look at me as I take my place at the end of the long line.When I finally get up to the window,I hand the officer my ID.“Im here to visit Mr C.Yes,I m his daughter.”I learn that line by heart.The officer hands me a piece of paper with my name as the visitor and my father s as the prisoner.It tells me which floor to go to.As I get on the elevator,a rush of excitement runs through

75%will not see them again.Research by UK life assistance firm CPP has found only one in five wallets is likely to be returned and not always with all its contents.学习资料收集于网络，仅供参考学习资料Wheres your wallet right now?Youd better check because research reveals only one in every five lost wallets are returned to their owners in Britain even though three-fifths of Britons claim they would either hand it in to police or try to find the owner.The research,made by life assistance company CPP,found that Britonswho carry an average of 85 in cash and 7,000 in credit in their walletshave lost more than 9 million wallets and 765 million pounds in the past five years.More than three quarters of those who lose their wallets will never see them again,and most will spend over 110 hours replacing their credit cards.In a nationwide experiment,CPP“dropped”20 wallets containing 10 in cash,a photograph,tickets,stamps and several business cards in shopping centers,on public transport,in museums,cafes,and on the street in five cities:London,Leeds,Birmingham,Cardiff and Glasgow.Only two in ten of the wallets were returned to their owners and only around half of those(55%)contained the original sum of money.According to the study,you can kiss your belongings goodbye if you lose your wallet in a cafe or on a train as none of the wallets“dropped”on public transport or while dining out were returned.But you have a 47%chance of seeing your wallet again if you lose it in a museum,and a third of the wallets“lost”in shopping centers were returned.60.How many lost wallets are likely to be

time”or“I am too busy”.Other excuses whisper quietly in our ears like“It is not my fault”,“I need this to happen before I can do my part”or“Business is bad everywhere”.Excuses like these are our
