My father woke up(叫醒)my brother and me early one summer morning when l was fourteen and said ''Get up! you're going with me to cut the grass in the garden”

Then l worked with my father and brother almost every Saturday.One day my father found some grass I had missed and said.“Cut the grass! Don't make me have to tell you to do it again.”I knew he was telling me the importance of doing a job well the first time.It really helped me a lot.
两年后,我父亲告诉我,我年龄足够大了,可以自己割草了。Every Saturday during my last two years of high school,1 woke up early in the morning to work in the garden.Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor(既不……也不……) high—paying,but I didn't care(在乎).My father once said,“If you're only thinking about money, maybe you won't think about how to do the job better.”
I do many jobs for my family.In every job, from cutting the grass to washing the clothes.I've learned much.I've learned something that helps me in my next job.
