【语篇解读】本文是一篇叙事性散文。文章通过回忆父亲对填字游戏和文字的热爱，表达了作者作为作
家在职业价值和报酬之间的困惑。最终，她从父亲留下的黄色铅笔中获得启示，明白写作的真正价值在于热
爱与坚守，而非仅仅追求金钱回报，从而重拾写作初心，传承父亲的精神。
At that very moment,Daisy's call came in.I poured out my depression about the low pay to her."You should
have joined me,she urged again."Write what the market demands.I can guide you in finding the best platforms and
editors to earn more."Her words,though practical,seemed to make sense.I hesitated,my heart torn between my
passion and the undeniable value of financial security,but I felt myself starting to agree.Just then,my eyes falling on
the box of yellow pencils my dad left behind,I was momentarily frozen.
These yellow pencils recall my father's laughter and his wise guidance.His love for words is pure,not motivated by
money.He found joy in the simple power of language,in the way that words could connect hearts and minds.He
believed my words were precious.Inspired by these,I realized while money is important,preserving the integrity of my
work is equally crucial.With newfound resolve,I thanked Daisy for her advice but gently declined her offer.I decided
to continue to write from the heart,trusting that true value lies in the impact words have on readers.
