售货员sales[英][seɪlz] [美][seɪlz] 哈里在橱窗上看到一则广告。上面写着：“招聘世界上最好的售货员，报酬优厚。” “我是一名了不起的售货员，”哈里自言自语，“任何东西我都能卖出去，我要进去应聘这份工作。” 他走进大楼去和经理说这件事。 “我是世界上最好的售货员，”他说，“把这件工作给我吧。” “你必须证明你是最好的，”经理说。 “我会通过你给我的每一次考验的。”哈里告诉他。 “好。” 经理从桌子里取出一箱糖果。 “我上星期买了一千箱这种糖果。如果你能在周末之前把这些全卖出去，你就能得到这份工作。” “这很简单。”哈里说。 他拿着这箱糖果离开了办公室。 每天从早到晚，他从这家店走到那家店，竭力想卖出一千箱糖果。 结果他一箱也没卖出去。 糖果质量太差，以至于送人都没人要。 他回去见经理。 “很抱歉，先生，”他说，“我搞错了。我不是世界上最好的售货员，但我知道谁是最好的。” “哦，”经理问，“是谁？” “是把这一千箱糖果卖给你的人，”哈里说。 Harry saw an ad in a window.
