题目内容

The doctor handed me my medicine and said sorry to me because his register (收银机) had already closed. He asked if I would mind using the register at the front of the store. I told him not to worry and walked up front. One person was in line ahead of me, a little girl no more than seven with a bottle of medicine on the counter (柜台). She held a little green and white coin purse closely to her chest (胸口).

The purse reminded me of the days when, as a child, I liked dressing myself up in my grandma’s clothes. One day, wearing her large clothes and hat, I went out to buy something. I gave a fake(假的) dollar to the shop owner, but he handed back some real coins for my purse. “Keep the change!” he told me with a smile.

Now, with both hands shaking, the little girl pulled out a dollar bill and some coins for her medicine. As she tried to count her money, I could see right away that she was about a dollar short. Quickly, I put a dollar bill onto the counter. The child collected her change into her coin purse and ran out.

As I walked to my car, I felt a tug(用力拉) on my shirt. There was the girl, looking up at me with her big brown eyes. She gave me a smile, and put out her little hand. It was full of coins. “Thank you,” she said.

“That’s OK,” I answered, smiling. “Just keep the change!”

If someone is very dear to us, we say that he or she is the “apple of our eye”.
