        We were standing at the top of church tower. “Look down, Elsa,” Father said. I gathered all my 1and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets 2to the square.

         “See, my dear,” Father said gently. “There is more than one way to the 3 Life is like that. If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road, try 4.”

        In the years that followed I often remembered the5Father taught me. I knew where I wanted to 6 in life. I wanted to be fashion designer. But on the way to my first small success I found the road 7.

        That year I was busy getting ready to show my winter fashions. Then just 13 days before the 8 the sewing girls were called out on strike. I found myself9 with one tailor and woman who was in charge of the sewing room! I was as gloomy as my models and salesgirls. “We'll never10 it,” one of them cried.

        Father's wise words has guided me. There is more than one way to the square always.
