The most important job
My parents got Federico’s Family Laundromat (洗衣店) from my grandfather. It was a true family business. My father worked the washing machines while my mother sat at the sewing machine. My Aunt Gloria was responsible for the cash desk. Even my retired grandfather offered to 1 by doing some cleaning now and then.
My father used to say that the most important machine in the laundromat wasn’t the washing machine, the cash desk, or the sewing machine. It was the coffee pot that sat by the entrance. The coffee was free, and almost every 2 would have a cup and chat with my family while waiting for their clean clothes. In the hours after school or on weekends, it was my job to keep the coffee pot filled. At least ten times per day, I would clean up the wet coffee grounds (咖啡渣), weigh 40g of beans, fill the pot with water, and turn on the coffee machine. It was such a(n) 3 job that I could have done it in my sleep.
I remember complaining to my father one busy day. “Why do we have to give away coffee We’re a laundromat, not a coffee shop!” I said 4 . My father was surprised at my attitude and immediately stopped what he was doing to talk to me. He took a seat across from me, and with a patient but serious look on his face, he spoke:
“Son, people can wash their clothes at any laundromat in town. They come to ours because we 5 them like friends. We offer them a cup of coffee. We chat with them, laugh with then and connect with them. People don’t just need a place to clean their clothes. They need friendship. That is why your job is the most important job in the laundromat.”
My father’s words had the expected 6 . From then on. I even weighed the coffee beans more carefully, making sure that the coffee would turn out just right. After all, I had the most important job in the laundromat, and that was worth taking seriously.

At five p.m. I stopped at the market to pick up a few necessary things: cream for coffee, eggs for breakfast and pills for my terrible headache.
Having been rushing all day, I was very 25 and did not want to shop with crowds of other shoppers. But I told myself it was my last stop before going home to put my feet up and watch my husband make dinner. So I gritted my teeth, took a deep breath and 26 the market. That’s when I saw her, a baby sitting in a shopping cart, who looked around 9 months old, with blond hair and large blue eyes. We stared at each other.
Then I did what I always do with children: I gave her my best smile. That’s a 27 I formed long ago when I became a mother. It started with my first child, in that unforgettable, life-changing moment when he was laid upon my chest and I watched him turn his tiny face up to find me.
At times, over the years, my 28 would fade into a look of fear or worry or anger. But it never let my face for long. It always came back, even on occasion through tears. It happened that same way with my second and third child.
And now, after all these years, I can’t resist smiling at children. I have learned that all children, young and old, need 29 to smile at them. Not just their parents and grandparents, but their teachers and coaches, family and friends. And, yes, even strangers at the market in a rush to get home.
The baby and I smiled at each other. That got a smile in return from every shopper I passed. I waved goodbye and she blew me a kiss.
I was still smiling when I got home and realized I’d forgotten to get the 30 . I didn`t need it, though. My headache was gone.

（2023·上海奉贤·统考一模）To Wear or Not to Wear
A teacher in the U.K. sent 80 students home because they broke school uniform rules. The Guardian (《卫报》) held a discussion about 31 students should wear school uniform.
School uniform is very important. It helps me 32 my lessons, because it reminds me that I am at school to learn. School uniform also helps prevent bullying (欺凌). If everyone wears the same clothes, it is 33 to laugh at other people’s clothing. I don’t think this affects the development of a child’s personality.
David Hershman, a student at Stafford Grammar School
Uniform has to be earned. Students should start school with no uniform. As they 34 at school, they start wearing it. I always think children need to be proud of their school. Uniform is important for that. So, make students learn it if they don’t perform well, they should not be allowed to get one.
Tim Francis, a former teacher
In a perfect world, school uniform would not exist. Children would express their personalities through their own clothes at school. We don’t live in a perfect world, however. Learning to fit in is one of the things at school for our children. The best thing about uniform, for me as a 35 , is the simplicity (简单).
Joanna Moorhead, a mother of four
I can definitely see the benefits of wearing school uniform. Uniform plays an important role in helping schools show authority (权威). However, a school should not rely heavily on uniform to improve students’ behavior. Teaching them how to 36 themselves with confidence is more important.
