By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品)．I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye.Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “What color do you think I should wear？” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.__4__

　　The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn't need to be a rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener.__5__ Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

　　A．Later I received 50 cents an hour.

　　B．Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

　　C．I ended up selling a record amount of cosmetics.

　　D．Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

　　E．My grandma's trust taught me how to handle responsibility.

　　F．Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.

　　G．Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.

　　1．【答案】B

　　【解析】根据上文“I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier in her general store.”可推知，作者的祖母先让作者跟着她学，然后让作者独立工作。
