Gamblers may have different lifestyles and betting habits, but almost every one of them has a favorite story of good luck or ill luck.
    Once, for example, a young man and woman entered Bradley’s grand casino at Palm Beach. They played for an hour and lost $10,000. The next morning the girl burst into Bradley’s office.
    "We were on our honeymoon and he lost all our life savings," she sobbed.
    A soft-hearted man by nature, the casino owner Bradley responded:
    "Sorry to hear that, young lady, here is your $10,000. But your husband is never to set foot in my casino again."
    That evening Bradley was outraged when he saw the young man bent over the roulette table.
    "What are you doing here? I told your wife... "
    "What wife?" the young man interrupted.
    Bradley realized that he had been taken in but he managed a thin smile when he received a telegram an hour later from another city with the message.
    "Thanks."

选项 A、He was very generous by nature.
B、He was drawn by the pretty young woman.
