Sharon wanted to make some money. She was only 15 years old， so she couldn't drive or get a job at a store， but she could babysit（臨時代人照看小孩）. Her neighbor Mrs. Brown had two kids. Both Mr. and Mrs. Brown were always so busy that they hardly went out at night. But they still went out once or twice a month. There were other high school girls babysitting their kids before， so why couldn't Sharon do it？
One day Sharon went to Mrs. Brown's home and told her what she wanted to do. Mrs. Brown was surprised at first， but she didn't seem to be against the idea. Sharon said she lived next door， and it would be so convenient（方便的）.Mrs. Brown said she' d tell her if she needed her.
One night， Mrs Brown went to Sharon's house and asked her for help. So Sharon watched the kids， Peter and Michelle. Peter was only seven months old， so he could only drink milk. Michelle was 12 years old. Sharon sang songs for Peter， and he fell asleep soon. Sharon helped Michelle with her homework and read stories for her. It was very interesting.
Mr. and Mrs. Brown went back two hours later. They were very happy to see everything was OK. They paid Sharon for her work and thanked her. It seemed they might ask her the next time. For Sharon， it was a nice job and a great way to make some money.
