Question

"Be proud of what you do " my father always told me " whether you are a boss or a cleaner. " When I was 15 I g 1        a summer job in a hospital. I was told that my duties would include sweeping floors. I smiled and r 2            Dad's words.

Even though my job was the lowest it made me feel e 3        I saw it as a challenge b 4        it was my first job. I learned to be on time and t 5        to do everything well. In return I was treated with respect (尊重) by doctors nurses and patients. Each morning I imagined that the dirty dishes would make p 6 sicker if I were not there to wash them clean. After breakfast was done I started s 7        the floors of all the patient rooms and cleaning toilets. Though I was t 8        I wanted the job to be done well. People would say "That young boy really does a good job. " That made me filled with pride.

Working in the hospital taught me that being p 9        of one's job is important. It does not matter whether the job is sweeping floors or managing a large business. Through every job I have ever had my father's words have always s 10        with me. I have swept floors and I have been a manager. I think Dad would be proud of me.
