One morning during my second month ofthe art school, our teacher gave

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} quiz(小测验). I was always a hard-working student and I did well in all my subjects. So it seemed a piece of cake for me. I had finished the questions successfully and easily, until I read the last one: What is the name of the woman{#blank#}2{#/blank#}cleans the school building every day?

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}it was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, thinand about 50 years old,{#blank#}4{#/blank#}how could I know her name? It was {#blank#}5{#/blank#}of my business. I handed in my paper,{#blank#}6{#/blank#}the lastquestion empty.

    Just before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count towards our quiz grades.

  “Of course it will,”said the teacher. “You {#blank#}7{#/blank#}many people in the future. All people are important. And all jobs need to {#blank#}8{#/blank#}. They work hard. They deserve(值得) your attention and care, even if all that you can do{#blank#}9{#/blank#}to smile and say hello.”

    I've never forgotten that lesson. Actually, that was the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}lesson in my life. I also learned that the cleaning woman's name was Ally Black.

    Fred telephoned his wife. “I've got two free tickets for the theatre tonight,” he told her. “Meet me {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the office. We'll have something to eat and then go on to the theatre.”
