Question

At the age of seven, I went to see my grandma in Warwick and spent the summer with her. One day I went to a general store with a   34 full of what Grandma needed.

“Excuse me, I need to   35  these,” I said .

“So ? I’m not your   36 ! You should get yourself a basket and start filling,” Miss Bee, the owner of the store, said   37  without smiling. “If you’re   38  you’ll be home by sunset.” Sunset was five hours away.   39 , the store was a puzzle, and I wasn’t sure if I would make it.

I visited Miss Bee several times a week that   40 . One afternoon when I watched her adding 35 cents instead of 29 for a can of beans, I   41  her immediately. Though being caught overcharging , she didn’t seem   42 , and she just fixed the price.

All summer long I was always tricked by Miss Bee. No sooner had I memorized the soda’s location on the shelf than she rearranged the shelves and made me  43 it all over again. But by summer’s end the   44 trip that had once taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes.

The morning I was to return to Brooklyn, I stepped in to get a bottle of water.

“What did you   45  this summer?” she said.

“That you’re so mean!” I whispered.

To my   46 , Miss Bee laughed. “When you get older, you’ll be glad our paths crossed!”

Glad I met Miss Bee ? No!

Until one day my daughter came to me with homework  47 . “It’s too hard,” she said. “Could you finish it for me?”

“If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” Suddenly, I was   48  at that general store where Miss Bee had really taught me something all those years ago.
