Passage A
Vince
choosed a job as a supermarket cashier because he liked people.
After what happened yesterday, though, he isn’t so sure.
First, after he had rang up her entire order, a woman throwed a handful
of coupons at him. Then she
gave him a hard time when he shown her that a few had expired. She begun making nasty comments about stupid
supermarket help. The next person
in line thought Vince had put the eggs on the bottom and would not leave until
Vince had took everything out of the bag and repacked it.
Later, two teenagers fighted with Vince over the price of a bag of
M&M’s, saying that it could never have rose so high in one week.
Vince gone home in a terrible mood, wondering how he would ever force
himself to come in the next day.
Passage
B
One winter my Siamese cat catched the flu.
She was only a kitten then, and she had never slowed down for a minute until the day
she begun sneezing.
Then she creeped over to a corner of the living room and set perfectly
still, looking at us through sad saucer eyes that constantly oozed tears.
For three days, she ate almost nothing and drunk much more water than
usual-a sure sign of illness. I
finally taked her to the vet, who prescribed a thick pink medicine that had to
be feeded to her three times a day by an eyedropper.
This was easier said than did; more medicine got onto the furniture and
me than into the cat. What finally
cured her, I think, was the electric blanket I had just buyed for my own bed.
She climbed onto it, I turned it on and it keeped her warm until her flu
went away.
