and have a very a good time. This is usually when her Mom isn"t around, and this is when my little girl
and I relate better. They"re alone together so much. We"re seldom alone. When we"re alone together, she
and I somehow behave differently. We learn about each other.She learns that I"m her father.I learn that
she"s my daughter. It"s a strange feeling, but any parent knows what I"m talking about when I say that I
often look at my daughter and wonder just whose kid she is. Where"d she suddenly come from? And why
on earth did she pick Laura and me for parents?
When my daughter and I are along she"ll hold my hand and say, "I just love you so much, Daddy!"
She"s so used to my leaving that when I tell her she and I are going to hang out all night, she gets this great
look on her face and says, "We"ve got so much to do, Dad!" There"s nothing like it in the world.
I want my relationship with my daughter to keep growing, so I"ve been giving my wife a couple of
hundred dollars each week and making her go to the shopping center with her girlfriends,or
something-anything!
But this closeness is not without its problems. When I"m sitting there playing with her Barbie doll
(巴比娃娃), washing her hair, a voice in me suddenly says, "I"ve got to get a drink and get out of here."
Right in the middle of all this pleasantness,the voice goes, "Look at yourself! You"re washing dolls!"

When she finally graduated, she had her eye on a teaching 1 at a nearby primary school. With the help of her
friends, she had an interview with the Head.
"I noticed a tiny hole in one of my stockings earlier," she 2 . "I thought about changing them, but I knew
I"d be late if I did. And by the time I got to the interview, 3 enormous. I walked in apologizing for not 4 ."
The would be teacher didn"t get the job. In fact one of her friends told her that the 5 only comment was:"If
someone doesn"t take the time to present her best 6 at an interview, what kind of 7 is she going to be?"
First impressions are 8 ones. In other words, if you"re viewed positively within the critical (关键的) first
four minutes, the person you"ve met will 9 assume everything you do is positive. Leave the interviewer a bad
impression, and often he will assume you have a lot of other unsatisfactory characters. Worse, he or she may
not take the time to give you a second 10 . Most employers believe that those who look as if they care about
themselves will care more about their jobs.

| One evening after dinner, Mr and Mrs. Tisich called a family meeting. "We"ve had to make a difficult decision," Mr. Tisich announced. "You see, your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television station in Chicago Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it,we"ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago." Marc looked shocked,while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when they"d be moving. "It"s surprising,but exciting!" She said. Marc simply said, "We can"t go-I can"t leave all my friends.I"d rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!" The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings. When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyons"s house, but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn"t seen Marc. Mrs. Tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly. What they didn"t know was that Marc had started walking over to Tommy"s house,with a faint idea of hiding in the Lyons"s attic (阁楼) for a few days. But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? Marc didn"t take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons (纸板箱) the right size to hold his record collection. | |||||||||||||||||||

I asked, "Because you are so goldamned educated, Doc, I knew you couldn"t be very 20 ." And I have an uneasy feeling he had something there. | |||||||||||||||||||
