业余工作part-time job[英][ˈpɑ:tˌtaɪm dʒɔb] [美][ˈpɑrtˌtaɪm dʒɑb] 我儿子在一所中学读二年级时,在一家超级市场找到了一份包装商品的业余工作。他满面笑容地回到了家。 “第一天感觉如何?”我问。 “好极了,爸爸。”他答道,“我跟许多漂亮的女孩子讲了话。” 由于斯蒂芬不善言谈,我问道:“你跟他们说了些什么?” “你是喜欢纸包装还是塑料包装?” Part-time Job When my son was a hign-school sophomore, he got a part-time job sacking groceries at a supermarket. He came home all smiles. "How was your first day?" I asked. "It was great, Dad," he replied. "I got to talk to some good-looking girls." Since Stephen is not very talkative, I asked, "What did you say to them?" "Do you prefer paper or plastic?" |
