LISTENING 01/12/2010

One day a kind artist was going back home by train when he met a beggar and gave him his last few coins. After some minutes he found another beggar and, forgetting that he hadn't any money, invited him for lunch. The bagger accepted and they went into a small restaurant. After the meal the artist remembered he hadn't any money and so the beggar had to pay for the lunch. The artist, embarrassed, asked the beggar if he wanted to go to his house by taxi so that he could give him the money paid for the lunch back. But he refused and said he had already paid for his lunch and he didn't want to pay for his taxi too.
