The summer vacation began. I decided to work to make money for the next term. But I didn’t know what work I could do.

　　At that time, my mother was writing a book. I decided to type for her for pay. She agreed and paid me 5 yuan for 1000 words.

　　I began to work. I typed so slowly that I could type only several hundred words a day. It was a hard job for me. I kept typing all day long.

　　I finished the work two weeks later. I came to know how hard it was to make money.
