英語小故事手抄報
學生想要學習英語,必須培養學習興趣。許多學校會組織學生畫手抄報來增加對學習英語的興趣,那麼,英語手抄報的圖要怎麼畫呢?下面是小編為大家帶來的,希望大家喜歡。
1:The Refund
The checker called the bag girl over, who went back to aisle 4 to do a price check. She returned shortly; $5.32 was indeed the correct price. The checker gave Delbert 64 cents to cover the overcharge and the tax. He told her that he thought he was supposed to get the item free if Ralfs overcharged him for it. She said, “Oh, we don’t do that anymore.”
That figures, Delbert thought. Just before he got to the store exit, he saw an assistant manager. Delbert asked him about the overcharge policy. The man said, “Yes, for most items, if you’re overcharged, you’ll get the item for free. Let me get the manager for you.”
When the manager arrived, Delbert explained his situation. Silently, the manager looked at the receipt and then asked for Delbert's 64 cents. The manager went to aisle 4 to check the price tag. He returned to Delbert about five minutes later. He gave him $5.32. Delbert thanked him. The manager said “You’re welcome,” but he didn’t say it in a friendly manner.
Delbert didn’t feel sorry for the manager, the clerk, or the store. Their overcharge policy wasn’t posted anywhere for customers to see. The employees knew nothing about it, or else were told to keep quiet about it. Delbert had spent way too much time over the last 15 years trying to figure out Ralfs’ tricky and confusing price tags. They owed him a lot more than $5.32 for all his wasted time over all those years.

2:Shut Your Mouth
“Shut your mouth,” Ginger said as she looked at Errol. He was looking at a green parrot squawking in a tree.
“I didn’t even say anything,” he objected. She knew that he hadn’t said anything; she meant that his mouth was hanging half open.
“You do that all the time,” she said. “You look silly. Sometimes I look around to see if people are looking at you. They must think that I'm your caregiver.”
He apologized, saying he’d try to keep his mouth closed when he was looking at parrots. “Not just when you’re looking at parrots. Whenever you’re not using your mouth for talking, you should keep your mouth closed. Look at me,” she said. She demonstrated his “open mouth” position while looking at the parrot. “See how dumb I look?” she said.
He laughed. “You look as smart and pretty with your mouth open as you do with your mouth closed,” he said.
Since they’d already been dating for four years, he asked, why hadn’t she said anything before now? She said that she hadn’t wanted to hurt his feelings before. But now that she’d decided that they weren’t going to get married, and maybe they weren’t even going to continue dating, she felt it was okay to be completely honest with him.
He asked her if there were other things she had not told him.
“Your underarms smell,” she said, “even after you take a shower.” He told her that the musky smell was actually attractive to some women. “Well, feel free to share it with them,” she said.
He hoped she wasn’t serious about that, but he decided against asking her.
