浙江新目标(Go for it)版2018-2019学年初中英语九年级全测试卷(十一)(含小段音频)
A few years ago, I worked at a church(教堂) and since my son was home schooling, he went with me to the church every day. Most mornings, we'd stop at a local convenience store, getting a chocolate drink for him and a cup of coffee for me.
The clerk at the store we chose to visit refreshed our lives each day, and so we returned again and again. She had found her own way of enjoying life and her job. I'm not even sure that she was realizing that her energy put a smile on the face of each customer.
When a customer brought cookies to the counter, any other clerk could have asked, "Would you like some milk with those cookies?" Instead, she inquired, "Would you like a lottery ticket(彩票) with those cookies? "
She might have asked me if I wanted a donut with my coffee. But instead, she asked, "Would you like some batteries(电池) with that coffee?"
Yes, life is what you make of it. This clerk's method of dealing with what some think is a boring job, and with the customers she met daily, made the hours in her day more enjoyable. In doing that, she also refreshed the lives of others and made them laugh.
Sometimes, if my day at the church had been particularly tiring, we'd stop at that store before heading home. We'd giggle(咯咯笑)as we left the store, the clerk's words echoing(回响)behind us. "Would you like some shampoo with that soda?"
