Robby was 11 years old when his mother dropped him off for his first piano lesson. I  1  that students begin at an earlier age, which I explained to Robby, but Robby said that it had been his mother’s  2  to hear him play the piano. So I took him as a student.

Recently, in the hope of getting both money and social experience, I became a door-to–door salesman. I once read a saying :“If somebody wants something of yours, you will be treated as warmly as spring ,but if they don’t, you may be treated as coldly as winter .”You may consider this an exaggeration(夸張),but if you are a salesman ,it is clearly correct .

You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn’t been a salesman. You needn’t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly comments; you needn’t listen to something completely wrong and nod to say that it was quite right; you needn’t talk to somebody you dislike…

I did this work for a month; then I decided to give it up. Apart from the above reasons, I found I was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time .The latest test result proved that my grades are getting lower. Even worse, I hadn’t enough time to join my classmates in college activities. Sometimes I felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my part–time job. Now I don’t think it is worth doing such a thing even though I was earning money at great cost.

Newspaper and magazines often publish stories about good students who do part-time work and keep high scores in class. But according to my experience, part–time work can have some strong bad effects on study.

Most students don’t see the relationship between study and work in a correct way. In my opinion, if it isn’t a must for financial reasons, students should be cautious about taking up a part-time job.
