Question

We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our family worked in our father’s store.1we worked and watched, we learned that work was about more than 2and making a sale.
One lesson stands out in my3. It was shortly before Christmas. I was in eighth grade and was working evenings, straightening the toy section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in. He was 4a brown torn coat with dirty sleeves. His shoes were scuffed (磨破)and his one shoelace was torn. The little boy looked poor to me — too poor to5to buy anything. He looked6the toy section, picked up this item and 7, and carefully put them 8in their place.
Dad came down the stairs and walked over to the boy. His steel blue eyes9and the dimple(酒窝)in his cheek stood out as he asked the boy what he could do for him. The boy said he was looking for a Christmas 10 to buy his brother. I was impressed that Dad treated him with the same respect as any adult. Dad told him to take his11and look around. He did.
After about 20 minutes, the little boy carefully picked up a toy 12, walked up to my dad and said, “How much for this, Mister?”
“How much you got?” Dad asked.
The little boy held out his hand and13it. His hand was creased(起皱) with14lines of dirt from holding his15too tightly. In his hand16two dimes, a nickel and two pennies—27 cents. The price on the toy plane he’d picked out was $3.98.
“That’11 just17it,” Dad said as he18the sale. Dad’s reply still 19in my ears. When the little boy walked out of the store, I didn’t notice the dirty, worn coat or the single torn shoelace. What I saw was a happy child with a 20.
