It was a beautiful Saturday morning,a perfect morning for playing or swimming.However,Tom had to finish the work Aunt Polly gave him.As Tom started to paint Aunt Polly's very long fence,along came Ben Rogers with a juicy apple in his hand.
Tom was silent.He focused on his painting like an artist.
"Looks like a lot of work,Tom."
Tom turned suddenly. "Oh,it's you,Ben!I didn't notice."
"I'm going swimming.Don't you wish you could come instead of doing work?"
"What do you call work?" asked Tom.
"Isn't that work?"
Tom kept painting and answered careless, "Well,maybe it is,and maybe it isn't.All I know is it isn't work for me."
"Oh,come on.You can't mean you like it?"
Tom continued painting. "Like it?Well,I don't see why not.Does a boy get a chance to paint a fence every day?"
That put the thing in a new light.Ben stopped eating his apple.Tom swept his brush carefully back and forth,added a touch of paint here and there,and stopped to take a look at it all.Ben watched every move and became more and more interested until he finally said, "Tom,why don't you let me paint a little?"
Tom considered Ben's offer. "Well,no,I can't let you,Ben.You see,Aunt Polly takes pride in this fence.I think there isn't one boy in a thousand,maybe two thousand,that can do it the way it's got to be done."
"Oh,come on.Let me try.I'd let you,if I were painting,Tom!"
"Ben,I'd like to,honestly,but Aunt Polly,well ..."
"I'll be careful.Just let me try.I'll give you some of my apple."
"Well,no,Ben.I'm afraid ..."
"I'll give you all of it!"
Tom slowly gave Ben the paintbrush.Ben took the brush eagerly(急切地) and started to paint.On Tom's face was a look of regret but in his heart,he was satisfied.
