We were standing at the top of church tower. “Look down, Elsa,” Father said. I gathered all my 41 and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets 42 to the square.
"See, my dear," Father said gently. "There is more than one way to the 43 . Life is like that. If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road, try 44 ."
In the years that followed I often remembered the 45 Father taught me. I knew where I wanted to 46 in life. I wanted to be fashion designer. But on the way to my first small success I found the road 47 .
That year I was busy getting ready to show my winter fashions. Then just 13 days before the 48 the sewing girls were called out on strike. I found myself 49 with one tailor and woman who was in charge of the sewing room! I was as gloomy as my models and salesgirls. “We’ll never 50 it,” one of them cried.
Here, I thought, is the 51 of all tests for Father’s advice. Where is the way 52 this time? I wondered and worried. I was certain we would have to 53 the presentation or else show the clothes unfinished. Then it 54 to me. Why not show the unfinished clothes?
We worked hurriedly. And, exactly 13 days later, right 55 time, the Schiaparelli showing 56 .
What a showing it was! Some coats had no sleeves; others had only one. Many of our clothes were still in a(n) 57 stage. They were only patterns made of heavy cotton cloth. But on these we 58 simple pictures and pieces of material.
All in all, the showing was different. It was so different that it was a great success. Our 59 showing caught the attention of the public, and 60 for the clothes poured in.
Father’s wise words has guided me. There is more than one way to the square always.
