布克·T·华盛顿《力争上游》· Up from Slavery · 领导
Three weeks before the time for the opening of the term at Hampton, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a letter from my good friend Miss Mary F. Mackie, the lady principal, asking me to return to Hampton two weeks before the opening of the school, in order that I might assist her in cleaning the buildings and getting things in order for the new school year. This was just the opportunity I wanted. It gave me a chance to secure a credit in the treasurer’s office. I started for Hampton at once.

白话
开学前三周,我意外收到女校长玛丽·F·麦基的信,让我提前两周回汉普顿,帮她打扫校舍、整理新学年的事务。这正是我想要的机会,因为它能让我在财务处记上一笔收入。我立刻动身。这说明机会常藏在别人需要人手的杂事里;平时把活干得让人放心,关键时人家才会想到你,而你要做的是马上答应、立刻行动。
上下文
华盛顿正愁路费和冬衣,女校长麦基来信请他提前返校做清洁整理工作。
今日一问
你有没有把一件不起眼的杂事干到让人下次还愿意找你?
