One winter morning I bought a copy of the New York World and turned its pages until I got the “Help Wanted Unskilled” section．A small advertisement held my 36 .It read, “Easy job．Good wages．No experience 37 .” It sounded like the job I was 38 ．Easy job．Good wages．Those four words 39 now and then in my brain as I was traveling to the address indicated in the 40 ．Easy job．Good wages．Easy job．Good wages．Easy ...

When I got to the place I saw a series of large 41 half filled with water, out of which I noticed 42 the necks of many bottles of various sizes and shapes． 43 these basins there were a number of workers sitting on small wooden benches．All had their 44 in the water of the basin, the left hand holding a 45 and the thumb nail of the right hand scratching（刮;擦） the labels on 46 .

I sat down on a 47 beside one of the basins and started to work on one bottle．As the minutes went by I noticed that the 48 of the water started to 49 from my hand to my body．But 50 still, the delicate thumb of my right hand was 51 by the minute into a full?? blown tomato?? colored finger．A numb（麻木的）pain began to be felt 52 from my right thumb．Then I began to feel as if the pain was coming from a finger bigger than all my body.

After three hours of this I told the manager I’d 53 .He figured I had 54 69 cents at 23 cents an hour．With the money, I left the working place．“Easy job．Good wages.” came to my brain again．Looking at my hands, I 55 myself, “Can easy job get good wages？”

The other day at the supermarket, I saw a naughty child of about six crying loudly, falling to the floor and refusing to move. All the while the troubled mother was trying to persuade him to behave well but failed. A little smack (掴打) on his bottom would have done the job, I thought.

Teenagers also cause discipline problems. As a teacher I had a 16-year-old student who had fallen in love with a waiter at a fast-food restaurant. In fact, she had left home to stay with him. So we decided to put her in the school hostel. She refused. When she heard her mother begging her to stay in the hostel she turned round and said: “Why don’t you stay in the hostel if you like it so much?”

My palms were itching to slap her for being so rude but the poor mother continued to cajole her, hoping that gentle persuasion would work wonders. It did not. The last I heard, she had run away from home again.

The list goes on and on. Could it be that today’s parents are softer and believe that they must not rod (棍棒惩罚) their children for fear of the bad result? Or do they actually believe that the children will get rid of the bad habits and behave well naturally as they grow older? I beg to disagree. I believe it is the parents’ duty to discipline the children even at a young age.

My children who are now adults will prove the fact that I used the rod when I thought it necessary. Later when they went abroad, they related to their British university friends on how they were disciplined. Their friends abroad were filled with horror and told my daughter that I could be charged for child abuse (虐待). However, my daughter paid me the greatest compliment when she told them that she would not be where she was today if not for my strict discipline.

According to the passage, the author would probably _______.

A. beat the children every day B. punish the children when necessary

C. 1eave the children as they are D. treat the children in a softer way

The underlined word “to cajole” (in Paragraph 3) probably means _______.

A. to persuade B. to scold C. to forgive D. to punish

D. The author’s daughter was very thankful for her parent’s strict discipline.

A. Respect Parents B. Spoil Kids C. Value Discipline D. Protect Kids
