So tired as I was, I bothered myself to open up my cafe shop on the cold morning. With many consumers streaming in, I knew another long business day began. And I had to serve far into the night.
As I rushed among the tables, suddenly, a asked if I could mind a child. I was quite but I could tell the man was quite desperate(絕望的). So I had to make a with him that if he wanted his son to stay and wait for him, he had to something in the shop.
This was quite for the man to do; I could he was quite poor by the he was dressed. It looked as if he had tried to come in his clothes. But they still looked a bit old and worn out he had often worn them, just to make himself look best. Looking down I could see his were also a bit shabby(破舊的)and the heels(鞋后跟)were in a terrible state. I thought he was going for a job interview. In the end he bought a small box of for his little son and seated him down in the corner. I could tell the boy was feeling down and only could with a bit of cheering up.
Seeing that the kid sat there for quite a while, I was a bit as the poor little kid was sitting his own. People watched him and some kids even came over to pick on him. I was to see one of them even knocked his cookies off the table. He quickly went and got them back without saying a word. I was hoping his father would up and come back for his son's .
At closing time, the only person left was the little boy. After a while, the father finally came in with a tiresome look. I he didn't get any job. As they were leaving, I offered the kid a little cake, but the man rejected(拒絕)it. I he felt as if I had just abused(虐待)him. Of course I didn't mean to. But I could understand why he felt like that. I only wished them good whatever happened.
The man opened the door to leave — father and son hand in hand.

I felt tense and . It was the first time, after all. I drew the violin from under the jacket like a gun. It was here, in Southampton, with trains rattling overhead, that I was about to myself. One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the before me, the violin under my chin.
The first notes I played were loud and raw, like a declaration of protest, then they settled down and began to run more _ and to stay more or less in tune. To my ,I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any at all. Then an old man, without stopping at all, dropped a penny into my as though getting rid of some guilty evidence.
I worked the streets of Southampton for several days, gradually obtaining the truth of the by trial and error. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money---the sight could a kind-hearted man; nor was it wise to it completely, which could also confuse him, giving him no hint as to where to his money. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a practice and I made sure, between tunes, to take off most of the earnings, but always leaving two behind.

But a man with an expensive hat, briefcase or dog: respectable types were the least of all. Except for retired army officers, who would shout "Why aren't you , young man?" and then would over-tip to cover up their confusion.

“Do you know ____ you and I are?” she asked. ____ I could answer, she gave out the reason for her question. She had just returned from renewing her driver’s license at a government office. The woman ____ desk asked her what her “occupation” was. Emily hesitated, ____ how to answer it. “What I mean is,” explained the woman, “do you have a job, or are you just a ...?” “Of course I have a job,” answered Emily. “I’m a (an) ____.” “We don’t ____ ‘mother’ as an occupation ... ‘housewife’ covers it,” she said.
I forgot all about her story ____ one day I found myself in the same situation. This time it was at our own Town Hall. The clerk was a woman.
“And what is your occupation?” she asked. What ____ me say it, I do not know. The words simply jumped out. “I’m ... a (an) ______ in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
The clerk stopped, her ball-point pen _____ in mid-air. She looked up ____ she had not heard right. I repeated the title slowly.
“Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “just what you do in your _____?” Coolly, I heard myself _____, “I have a continuing program of research in the laboratory and in the field. I’m working for my masters (the whole family) and already have ____ credits (令人增光的人或事物) (all daughters). I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it).
