阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I had passed the higher secondary examination when I had to give up a further student. I had to be earning something to help the family budget. I scanned the “wanted columns of newspapers” and put them in applications. One day a letter came to me from an office; I was asked to prepare for an interview on a particular date just at 10 a.m. I was both happy and nervous; I was the only teen. However, I had asked for it, and so I must go.
On that particular morning, I got ready. I put on the best clothes. They were not showy, but they were clean and decent. I took particular care to clean and polish my pair of shoes. Knowing the difficulties of transport, I started with plenty of time on hand.
I reached the office before the appointed time. I went up to the manager’s room and showed my letter to the bearer. He took the letter and asked me to wait in a room nearby. I found there others waiting. One of them was particularly well-dressed. He was quite at ease and it seemed hard for him to notice us. The others were like me, nervous and anxious to get the thing over. Two others came in but I was so very ill at ease that I could only glance at them.
Just at ten, the smart one was called in. He went smartly enough but his shoes creaked, which was not very pleasant. He was so much in haste that he tripped a little on the doormat and therefore shot into the room rather than made a decent entry. My turn came third. I was trembling. I went quietly and entered closing the door carefully behind me. I made a bow and advanced. The manager asked me to be seated. He took out my application and asked me why I was giving up my studies. I explained my family circumstances. All the time I was speaking, he took me in from top to bottom. He remarked that I seemed to be too young for the job. I said that I was willing to learn and to work as hard as possible.
