Alice needed to earn some money. She had a brother named Steve. His 12-year-old birthday was just two weeks away. Steve’s soccer was old, and Alice wanted to buy him a new one. She had some money, but not enough to buy a soccer. This was a big problem, but Alice knew she could solve it. She decided to see if her neighbors had any odd jobs (零工), she could do for them. She might be able to earn enough money to buy a soccer. She went next door to Mrs. Wilson’s house.
After Mrs. Wilson knew the whole thing, she told Alice to go ahead and wash the car for a dollar. Alice also raked (用耙子耙) Mrs. Wilson’s yard and swept her sidewalk for two dollars, Alice walked the Ms Steels’ dog, and washed Mr. Morita’s windows. Each job was different, and Alice worked very hard. As she was tired at night, she slept like a bear in the winter.
Alice continued to work hard. For the next two weeks, every day when she got home, she asked her neighbors if they had any odd jobs for her to do.
After receiving the last dollar she needed, Alice went to the sporting goods store. When she bought the soccer, Alice proudly paid for it with the money she earned. She could hardly wait to give it to Steve!
Steve’s birthday party was on Saturday. When he opened his present and saw the new soccer he let out a loud yell (叫喊). “Now I know why you were so busy!” he said. “You’re the best sister ever!”
