    On the day of the interview, I got up at 6:00 in the morning. I got to the interview place without {#blank#}1{#/blank#} breakfast. I was the 16th interviewer(应聘者) and the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} was a short ordinary - looking girl. I noddedto her. I asked her where she graduated. "I didn't graduate from a famous college," she told me {#blank#}3{#/blank#} a low voice.

    I didn't expect the interview would last so long. As I didn't have breakfast, my stomachache came to me. I had to sit by the table for a rest. Just at that time, the girl came and asked me what happened. I told her, "I didn't have {#blank#}4{#/blank#} this morning, so I had a stomachache."

    After a while, a worker came in and {#blank#}5{#/blank#} me a bottle of milk and a piece of bread. It was certain that they were bought by the girl. I felt warm all over my heart because I hadn't imagined she would be so nice to help me--her rival (竞争对手)

    Luckily, I {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the job. The first day I went to work, I was {#blank#}7{#/blank#} to see the girl there. She also got the job. Later I asked her why she got the job. She said with a smile. "That day when I bought you the food and came back, an interviewer saw me and asked {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I took the food in hands. I told him the truth. Then I got the job. " At that {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ,I came to know that when the girl helped me and the interviewer, she also helped {#blank#}10{#/blank#}.

    Helping others will benefit yourself as well.

    Last year I was 14 years old. I had an " enemy", a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Day by day her list grew: I was very thin; I was {#blank#}1{#/blank#}; I sometimes didn't respect the teachers, I talked too much: I was too proud, and so on. At last, I couldn't stand it. I cried and{#blank#}2{#/blank#}to my father. He listened to me quietly. Then he asked," Alfred, are the things she says true or not? Didn't you ever wonder what you are really{#blank#}3{#/blank#}? Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she{#blank#}4{#/blank#}and find out the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things you heard."

    I did {#blank#}5{#/blank#}my father told. To my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change （like being very thin）, but a large number I could and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of {#blank#}6{#/blank#}.

    I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. "It's just the case for you, he said," you know better than anyone the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}about yourself But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of great help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don't shut your ears, listen to them all, but hear the fact only and do what you know is right thing{#blank#}8{#/blank#}.

    In my life. I've never {#blank#}9{#/blank#}a better piece of advice. Thanks for the shortcomings that someone has pointed out for us. They can make us know ourselves more and improve us{#blank#}10{#/blank#}as we grow up.
