My parents ran a small restaurant in Seattle. It was open twenty-four hours a day, six days a week. And my first real job, when I was six years old, was 　31 the diners’ shoes. My father had done it when he was young, so he taught me 32 to do it well, telling me to 33 to shine the shoes again if the customer wasn’t 34 .

I was proud of working in the restaurant 　35 I was also working for the good of the family. But my father 　36 said that I had to meet certain standards(标准) to be part of the team. I 　37 to be on time, hard-working, and polite to the 38 . I was 　39 paid for the work I did at the restaurant. One day I made the mistake of suggesting to Dad that he 40　 give me $10 a week. He said, “OK. How about you paying me for three meals a day you have here? And for the times you bring in your friends 41 free soft drinks?” He 　42 the amount of money I owed him, about $40 a week.

I remember returning to Seattle after being 43 in the US Army for about two years. I had just been promoted（升职） to Captain at that time. And full of pride, I walked into my parents’ restaurant, but the 　44 thing Dad said was, “How about your 　45 up tonight?” I couldn’t 46 my ears! I am an officer in the Army! But 　47 didn’t matter. As far as Dad was concerned, I was just 48 member of the team. I reached for the mop(拖把).Working for Dad has taught me that the devotion(奉献) to a 49 is above all. It has nothing to do with 50 that team is for a family restaurant or the US Army.
