This bookish inclination at length determined my father to make me a printer, tho' he had already one son (James) of that profession. In 1717 my brother James return'd from England with a press and letters to set up his business in Boston. I lik'd it much better than that of my father, but still have a hankering for the sea. To prevent the apprehended effect of such an inclination, my father was impatient to have me bound to my brother. I stood out some time but at last was persuaded, and signed the indentures, when I was yet but 12 years old... I was to serve as an apprentice till I was 21 years of age, only I was to be allow'd journeyman's wages during the last year. In a little time I made great proficiency in the business, and became a useful hand to my brother. I now had access to better books. An acquaintance with the apprentices of booksellers, enabled me sometimes to borrow a small one, which I was careful to return soon and clean. Often I sat up in my room reading the greatest part of the night, when the book was borrow'd in the evening and to be return'd early in the morning, lest it should be miss'd or wanted. And after some time an ingenious tradesman Mr. Matthew Adams who had a pretty collection of books, and who frequented our printing house took notice of me, invited me to his library, and very kindly lent me such books as I choose to read.

World Cup Dad
For most of my 15 years, my father usually said very little to my mother and me. He preferred reading the newspaper or watching football matches on television to talking to his family.
Everything changed one morning. As soon as I came downstairs to breakfast, I could see that he wasn't his usual reserved (缄默的) self. " Can't wait! FIFA World Cup! Big match! Must see ! "I quickly figured out what all the excitement was about: Dad is a big football fan.
I had never been interested in football, but Dad's excitement that morning made me more and more curious. I had to find out why this sport was making my normally reserved father act like a I five-year-old on his first trip to Disneyland.
Dad decided that we should all eat at a little German restaurant so that we could watch the World Cup while eating. Secretly, I think he was hoping to tum Mum and me into football fans.
The match started a few minutes after we entered the restaurant. As I was eating my meal, a loud noise came from the television. Surprised, I looked up at the TV : "Why is that man jumping up and down?" Dad patiently explained : " That's Papa Bouba Diop , my son. It's normal for them to jump up and down after they've scored. "
Dad explained almost everything to me. His monosyllabic (单音节的 ) answers were a thing of the past. I loved the new Dad! I watched the rest of the match, becoming more and more interest ed. When I told my father that I planned to watch more matches with him, he smiled and gave me a wink(眨眼) . At long last we had something in common.
Football has really helped Dad and me get closer and form. a stronger relationship with each other. Who says football is only about 22 men running after a silly ball?
