销售人员，你不一定要很聪明，但是你必须要学会倾听，做一个好的听众。
【小题1】B考查上下文的理解判断能力。从上下文语境可以判断此空应该是关于作者在店里帮助祖母的内容，而B选项中的Before long, she let me sit there by myself.恰好起到承接上下文的作用，故B选项正确。
【小题2】A考查上下文的理解判断能力。前句 At first I was paid in candy.是讲作者起初得到的报酬，而A选项内容是关于后来报酬的形式，由此可以推测A选项正确。句意：开始我只是得到一些糖果，后来她给我每小时50美分。
【小题3】G考查上下文的理解判断能力。G从前句My father helped me set up a bank account.可知父亲给我开了银行账户，纵观选项G项中Watching my money grow恰好能与之呼应，所以G为正确选项。
