When James was a teenager, his father 36 him to a fur factory where he worked . This was during the Great Depression. The 37 was to get James a job.
James entered the factory, and immediately felt as if the 38 had closed in around him. The room was dark and hot, the windows covered with dust, and the 39 were packed tightly together, running like trains. The fur hairs were flying, 40 a thickened air, and the workers, 41 the pieces of fur together, were bent over their needles 42 the boss marched up and down the rows, searching for them to go faster .James could hardly 43 . He stood next to his father, frozen with fear, hoping the boss wouldn’t 44 at him, too.
During lunch break, his father took James to the boss and pushed him in front of him, 45 if there was any work for his son. But 46 there was hardly enough 47 for the adult labours, for no one would give it up once he took a job.
Thus, for James, it was a 48 . He hated the place. He made a 49 that he kept to the end of his life: he would never do any work that brought 50 to someone else, and he would never allow himself to 51 money off the seat of others.

55 , my best professor I ever had became—he thought it was the job not to hurt anybody.

“You ought to be ashamed of yourself, breaking the law and endangering your life that way.” I protested.
He looked at me, astonished, “Ashamed of myself? I am a law abiding(守法的) citizen and have no desire to get killed either.” He cut me off before I could protest.
“No, just listen to me before you complain. What did I do? Went through a red light. Well, did you ever stop to consider what a red light is? What it means?”
“Certainly,”I replied. “It’s a stop signal and means the traffic is rolling in the opposite direction.”
“Half-right,”said the driver, “But incomplete. It’s only an automatic(自动的) stop signal. And it does not mean that there is cross traffic. Did you see any cross traffic during our trip? Of course not. I slowed down at the light, looked carefully to the right and to the left. Not another car on the street at this hour. Well, then! What would you have me do? Should I stop like a stupid animal because an automatic, brainless machine turns red every forty seconds? No, sir,”he shouted, “I am a man, not a machine. I have eyes and a brain and judgment, given me by God. Ashamed of myself, you say? I would only be ashamed of myself if I let those blinking lamps do my thinking for me. Good night,sir.”
