  I was six when I joined my father and two elder brothers at sunrise in the fields of Eufaula, Uklan.From the time I was eight I was helping Dad fix up old furniture.He gave me a cent for every nail(钉子)I   1   out of old boards.

  I got my first real job, at JM’s Restaurant in town when I was 12.My main responsibilities were clearing up tables and washing dishes, but   2   I helped cook.

  Every day after school I would   3   to JM’s and work until ten.Even on Saturdays, I worked from two until eleven.At that age it was difficult going to   4   and watching my friends run off to swim or play.I didn’t really like work, but I loved what work allowed me to have.Because of my   5   I was always the one buying when my friends and I went to the local(当地的)Tastee Freez.This made me feel   6  

  Word that I was hardworking and trustworthy(讲诚信)  7   around the town.A local clothing store offered me a credit card   8   I was only in seventh grade.I immediately bought a$68 sport coat and a$22 pair of shoes.I was   9   only 65 cents an hour, and I already owed(欠)the store-keeper$90! So I learned gradually the danger of easy credit.I paid   10   as soon as I could.

  My first job taught me self-control responsibility and brought me a level of personal satisfaction that   11   of my friends experienced.As my father, who worked three jobs, once told me, “If you   12   responsibility, there are not many things in life you can’t have.” How right he was!

Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes me £12,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office . “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me £12.”

Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely. “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”

The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sun burnt,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”

“Yes,” she answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!”

“That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet .Of course, she’s only three…”

“I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll be four and a half.”

Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam,” he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”

“Er, well—” the woman looked at the child. “I mean… she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”

“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs …let me see…£13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe £1.50. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”

The woman stood up, took the child’s hand and left the office.

26.Harry was worried because __________.  .

    A.the woman was angry with him   B.he had not done his work properly

    C.the Jersey timetable was wrong   D.the little girl didn’t have a return ticket

27.Harry started talking to the little girl ________.

    A.because he was in difficulty and did not know what to do

    B.because he had a little girl about the same age as this girl

    C.because he wanted to be friendly to the little girl who looked so nice

    D.when he suddenly realized that he could find a way out from the little girl

28.When Harry said,“The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”he meant that

    A.they must follow it without other choice ,even though the fault was his

    B.he had to be strict with the woman because of the law ,although he didn’t want to

    C.the woman had to pay him £1.50 and the railway would pay her for the hotel

    D.she should pay £1.50, but he had made a mistake, she could go without paying

29.The woman left the office without saying anything because __________.

    A.she wanted to go home and get money for the child’s ticket

    B.she was so angry that she didn’t want to have anything more to do with the young man

    C.she was moved by Harry’s kindness
