That holiday morning I didn't have to attend school. Usually, on holiday, mother 41 me to sleep in. And I would certainly take full advantage of it. On this particular morning, 42 ,I felt like getting up early.

I stood by my window overlooking the 43 , having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something 44 in life.

As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I 45 an old man on a bicycle with a bucket on its 46 and a basket of rags and bottles on its back-carrige. He 47 from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already 48 washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.

Several thoughts 49 my mind as I watched him work. He wasn't well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(an) 50 T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern 51 would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed 52 with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, 53 at passers-by and stopping to chat now and then 54 elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.

There was a noticeable touch of 55 in the way he seemed to be doing things 56 the windscreen(擋風玻璃),then standing back to admire it, scrubbing(擦淨)the wheel and 57 ,standing back to see what they looked like after the scrub.

It was a 58 to learn, I felt. At no age need one have to beg for a 59 if one has good health and is willing to work hard. For a while I felt 60 of myself. Young as I am—just sixteen, and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon.
