We milked 65 cows twice a day. One day, I complained to my father about having to milk those cows, saying it was tiring. He said, “you know, boy, to work is a blessing.” I looked at the men who’d worked harder. I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sunk in.?　 Back then, going to college was a rare privilege. My father told me if I’d picked something to study that I liked doing, I’d always look forward to my work. But he also added, even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all. I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined a military?program to help pay for college. And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years.? In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with her baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer. I asked a local officer why they weren’t using a?machine to make the work easier. He told me a machine would put that lady out of work. And as bad as that woman’s?job?was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. It reminded me of my father’s words: to work is a blessing.?　 After seeing a lot of people like that woman in Bangladesh, I’ve come to believe that people without?jobs are not free. They’re victims of crime, poor health, and depression. People who have jobs can have a home, send their kids to school, develop a?sense of pride, contribute to the good of the community and even help others. When we can work, we are free. We are blessed.?1. Which can be the best title of the text?　 A. To Work Is a Blessing B. My Chosen Way of Life　C. Why Should I Work D. Inspiration from a Woman2. What can we learn from the first paragraph? The writer’s parents were rich farmers. B. The writer admired his father’s job
