　　After 35 years, we had to move out of our home．How did one say good-bye to a house? As the porters moved our furniture into their truck, I thought 　　1　　 to the nights when thunder and lightning drove our two small daughters from their rooms．These two girls, now grown women came by to say 　　2　　 to their house．They walked from room to room, laughing and crying, 　　3　　 events that shaped their lives．

　　Thirty-five years 　　4　　, we had come to this house with 　　5　　 and hope．Not all the years were joyous．Sickness and loss of dear ones were with us constantly．But always, our comforting house 　　6　　 us and helped renew our spirits．We grew old but not so our house．　　7　　 by tall trees and flowering bushes, it became more beautiful, more 　　8　　, and more solid．

　　The new caretakers of our house were young．We prayed they would be happy．We knew we would never live in our home 　　9　　．But memories are lasting and we have no 　　10　　．

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.

One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue, 　 21　 I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. Why I wished to buy only one pair is 　 22　 . I turned into the first sock shop that 　 23　 my eye, and a boy clerk who could not have been more than seventeen years old 　 24　 . “What can I do for you, sir?” “I wish to buy a pair of socks.” His eyes were shining. There was a note of 　 25　 in his voice. “Did you know that you had come into the finest place in the world to buy socks?” I had not been aware of that, as I entered the shop 　 26　 . “Come with me,” said the boy, excitedly. I followed him to the back part of the shop, and he began to take down from the shelves box after box, 　 27　 their contents for my enjoyment. “Hold on, young man, I am going to buy only one pair!” “I know that,” said he, “but I want you to see 　28　 beautiful these are. Aren’t they wonderful?”　 29　 was on his face an expression of pleasure, 　 30　 he were uncovering the mysteries of his religion. I became far 　 31　 interested in him than in the socks. I looked at him in amazement. “My friend,” said I, “if you can keep this up, if this is not 　32　 the enthusiasm that comes from having a new job, if you can keep up this enthusiasm and excitement day after day, in ten years you will own every 　 33　 in the United States.”

My amazement 　 34　 his pride and joy in salesmanship will be easily understood by all who read this article. In many shops the 　 35　 has to wait for someone to serve him. And when 　 36　 some clerk does notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. Either he is 　 37　 in deep thought in which he hates to be disturbed or he is chatting with a girl clerk and you feel like 　 38　 for “being too rude”.

He shows no interest either in you or in the goods he 　 39　 to sell. Yet possibly the very clerk who is now so indifferent(冷漠的) began his career with hope and 　 40　 . The daily work was too much for him; the newness disappears slowly; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours; and he saw younger clerks who had more enthusiasm in their work promoted over him. He became sour. That was the last stage. His usefulness was over.
