I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台)in her general store. 　 　I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you”.
At first I was paid in candy. 　 　I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a. m. to 7 p. m. . My father helped me set up a bank account. 　  
By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear? ”I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.  
The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. 　 　Expect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A．Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B．Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

C．I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.

D．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

E. My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.
F. Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.
G. Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.
