Ask inside." I was fourteen, and I wanted money of my own. It was two streets from my home, and the whole way there I practised what I would say. My mother said I would be tired of it within a week. ✓ money of one's own 自己的钱 practise 反复练习 She was wrong about the week. She was not wrong about the tired. ✓ be wrong about 看错了 My job was simple: cut the stems, change the water, wrap the flowers, and smile. The first Saturday, I was proud of my clean apron（围裙） and my careful bows（蝴蝶结）. Then an old woman came in with a receipt（收据） and a tired voice. She said the roses she had bought for her sister's birthday had died within two days. I looked around for my boss. He was out, delivering. I had never thought about water. Nobody had told me that flowers drink. ✓ be proud of 满意自豪 deliver 出货外送 There I was — fourteen years old, with a bucket（水桶） and a customer who was waiting. I said, in a small voice, "I am sorry. I do not know what to do." She looked at me for a long moment. "Then find someone who does," she said. ✓ in a small voice 小声说 for a long moment 打量许久 I called my boss. He asked me two questions: which roses, and how much water. I did not know the answers. I had sold flowers for six hours without once looking at the water in the buckets.

She asked for me by name. She did not mention the mistake. She told me her sister had put the flowers by the window. ✓ by name 指名道姓 mention 提起 That summer taught me something no classroom had: work is not finishing a task. It is caring about how it is done. My boss never gave me a speech about responsibility. He only asked questions I could not answer — a habit, I now see, that was kinder than any lecture. I have since had other jobs, and I still ask myself first: what does this need? ✓ care about 在乎 responsibility 责任 I still have the first money I earned. I did not spend it on the things I had planned. I bought my mother flowers, from my own shop. She laughed and said that shop's roses had never lasted long.

I had sold flowers for six hours without once looking at the water in the buckets. That was the moment I understood the job was not about flowers at all. I went into the back room and cried, quickly. Then I came out and solved the problem: a new bunch（一束） for her sister, a note in my own handwriting, and a promise to check the water every day. She came back the next Saturday. She asked for me by name. She did not mention the mistake. She told me her sister had put the flowers by the window. That summer taught me something no classroom had: work is not finishing a task. It is caring about how it is done. My boss never gave me a speech about responsibility. He only asked questions I could not answer — a habit, I now see, that was kinder than any lecture. I have since had other jobs, and I still ask myself first: what does this need? I still have the first money I earned. I did not spend it on the things I had planned. I bought my mother flowers, from my own shop. She laughed and said that shop's roses had never lasted long. Then she put them in water, and they lasted more than a week.
