Do you lose your things easily? ▲ In London, most lost things go to the Lost and Found.
Each week, the Lost and Found receives (收到) 6,000 things. People often lose things like keys, handbags and watches. Yesterday, it received something unusual (不寻常的),a big toy octopus! Look, it is as tall as a person.
The Lost and Found keeps (保留) things for three months. After that it gives them to charity (慈善),recycles (回收) or sells them. But cash (现金) is a little different. The office keeps cash for a year.
