We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our family worked in our father’s store.   1   we worked and watched, we learned that work was about more than   2 and making a sale.

One lesson stands out in my mind. It was shortly before Christmas. I was in the eighth grade and was working evenings, cleaning up the   3   section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in. He was wearing a brown worn coat with dirty sleeves. His shoes were scuffed （磨损） and his one shoelace was worn. The little boy looked poor to me — too poor to  4  to buy anything. He looked   5  the toy section, picked up this item and   6  , and carefully put them back in their place.

Dad came down the stairs and walked over to the boy. His steel blue eyes   7   and 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   8   for his brother. I was impressed that Dad treated him with the same  9   as any adult. Dad told him to take his  10   and look around. He did.

After about 20 minutes, the little boy carefully picked up a toy, walked up to my dad and said, “How much for this, Mister?”

“How much you   11  ?” Dad asked.

The little boy held out his hand and   12   it. His hand was creased （起皱） with   13   lines of dirt from holding his money too tightly. In his hand   14   only two pennies and 27 cents. The price on the toy plane he’d   15   was $3.98.

“That’ll just   16   it,” Dad said as he   17   the sale. Dad’s reply still   18   in my ears. When the little boy walked out of the store, I didn’t notice the dirty, worn coat or the   19   torn shoelace. What I saw was a happy child with a  20  .
