2、 officer asked me to interview a young man who was having trouble finding a job. He told me that David was a little shy, did not talk much and was afraid to go on with interviews. He requested that I give David an interview just for practice. He plainly told David that I had no positions open at the
3、 time and the interview was just for practice. When David came in for the interview, he hardly said a word. I told him what we did at the bicycle shop and showed him around. I told David to keep showing up because the number one thing an employer wanted in an associate was dependability. David was v
4、ery quiet ( he was evaluated as a slow learner in school). Every ten days or so, for weeks after the interview, David walked into the bicycle shop and stood by the front door. He never said a word, just stood by the door. One day, shortly before Christmas, a large truck came to the shop, packed with
5、 250 new bicycles. It had to be unloaded right away or the driver would leave. It was raining.

10、. Adult butterflies will live about 2 to 4 weeks.

Butterflies have large compound eyes, which allow them to see in all d
11、irections without turning their heads. Like most insects, butterflies are very near-sighted, so they are more attracted to a sea of flowers than individual plants.

12、ining, as well as ultraviolet light, which is present on many flowers and guides butterflies to honey sources.
