三篇短文和一个老外的评语(二)
第二篇: Not very easy to get
SPEAKING for an inexperienced sophomore, me, 25 yuan per hour is really a great temptation. So without hesitation, I was on my way to make a fortune. I used to think it was easy getting a job as a tutor. However, it couldn't have been worse than this time.
I was seated in a hard and cold chair. And over piles of books I finally saw my student? a big boy who seemed very unhappy with my visit. Giving me an indifferent look as a response to my "hello," he sat down impolitely with his Walkman on.
The father ordered me to take out my certificates. Having examined every line, he insisted that I take a test so that he could judge by himself.
Anyhow, I finished the test. With a red pencil in hand he began to check the answers. I really wondered who on earth was the teacher, as he was checking it time and again regardless of his son's obvious impatience.
"OK." He finally raised his eagle eyes. "Your accuracy is 90 per cent." "Is that enough?" I asked.
"It's enough. But don't you think your reading speed is low and ……"
"And Sir," I couldn't help interrupting him. "It's also enough for me to not have to bear this here."
I stood up and went away, leaving him astonished.
