"Corinne, we need to talk," my boss said six months ago, with a 6 look on her face. "You're a nice girl, 7 you need to be more focused on what you are doing and pay attention to your 8," she said. Tears forming, I feared I would 9 my job. Then, she said, "I'm going to give you another chance." I sighed with 10.

A king was once in need of a faithful servant. He gave notice that he wanted a man to do a day's work, and two men came and asked to be admitted. He engaged them, and set them to fill a basket with water from a well, saying he would come in the evening again.
After filling one or two buckets (水桶), one man said. "Why do we do it? You see, it is no use putting the water into the basket, and it runs out at once." The other man answered, "It is none of our business. We promised to do it, and we are to get paid for it. "
The first speaker thought it foolish and then went away. The other man continued his work. Towards evening, he had nearly emptied the well. Looking into the basket, he saw something shining. It was a ring of great value, which his bucket had brought from the muddy bottom of the well. "Now I come to understand the use of pouring the water into a basket." he said to himself. At this moment the king came up. Seeing the ring, he knew the man had been doing exactly as he had ordered, although the work had seemed useless.
The king knew he had found a servant he could trust at last. He told the man to keep the ring for himself, saying, "You have been faithful in a little thing: now I see I can trust you in great things. It is your attitude that makes the difference. From now on you shall be the head of my servants. "
It is a big job to take away a city's rubbish. Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have mountains of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of the city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathrooms and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you'd never know that this was an old rubbish dump before.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly changes into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help to make them grow.

During the summer holidays this year, I thought I should do anything meaningful instead of staying at home, so I was got a job at a KFC fast food restaurant, worked there as a cleaner. I worked seven hours a day for three weeks.
The job was hard and bored and seemed endless, which made me so tired that I nearly gave it down half way, but I stuck to it with determinations. Every day I started off for work early in the morning and got home lately in the evening. Finally I finished the job before the new term begins.
Now, I understand that labor means. I think it is really successful experience.
