B
My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced (宣布), “Get up, you’re going with me to cut the grass in the garden.”
The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got $ 6 for my work that day.
　　One day my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. “Take away these leaves!” he said. “And don’t make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. That day I valued the importance of doing a job well for the first time. It will never fail to impress the person you are working for.
After two years, my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday during my last two years of high school, we set off early in the morning with the same strong wish we had got while working under our father.
　　Looking after the garden was not exciting or high paying, but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that what I was paid was more than I had before.
　　A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you’re only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don’t want to do any better than you are doing,” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing dishes, I’ve learned much. I’ve learned something that helps me in my next job.
　　If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

　A. he could cut the grass himself B. he could make much money
　C. he could enjoy sunup and sundown D. he could help his family

　A. not leaving leaves behind B. giving no excuse for your mistakes
　C. doing a good job at the very beginning D. missing things which can be found out
7. When the writer finished high school, maybe he was _______.
　A. fourteen B. eighteen C. twenty　　 D. twenty-two
8. Which of the following may the writer think is the most important
　A. Keeping learning from any job you had. B. Asking no money for work.
　C. Finishing work as quickly as possible. D. Keeping looking for different jobs.
9. Maybe the writer thinks his father is _______.
A. lazy　 　 B. helpful　 　 C. careless D. funny
