As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I ______and old man on a bicycle with a bucket on its ______and a basket of rags and bottles on its back carriage. He ______from one car to another, washing and cleaning them. From the water on the ground, it seemed that he had already ______washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars.

Several thoughts ______my mind as I watched him work. He wasn’t well-dressed. He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) ______T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern ______would want to be riding on. But he seemed ______with life. There he was, working hard at his small business, ______at passer-by and stopping to chat now and then ______elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.
There was a noticeable touch of ______ in the way he seemed to be doing things—______the windscreen, then standing back to admire it; scrubbing the wheels and ______, standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.
It was a ______ to learn, I left. At no age need one have to beg for a ______if one has good health and is willing to work hard. For a while I felt ______of myself.

Childish Voice
When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time that taught a man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why ______had such a big influence ______a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as a result. But now, _____i come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel _____to express my own _____on this saying. I know that I’m just a high school student with very _____experience. There are still many things ______me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.
