题目内容
17.I was offered several part-time jobs at university.Finally I decided to give one of them a go.Now I work in a dining hall on campus(校园).My main duties are to serve food and wash dishes.I discovered I would have to stand still for at least three hours at a time and was afraid it was not going to be as much fun as I had thought.Smiling all the time and remembering all the strange food names have been a challenge(挑战),too.
I have had really funny experiences.One of the sauces is called"marinara"which is a kind of tomato-based sauce like salsa(辣茄酱). Before I knew what it was,someone asked me to give him the sauce,and I replied:"What?The marijuana(大麻) sauce?"He was astonished.Marijuana is an illegal(非法的 ) drug and has nothing to do with sauce.It was quite embarrassing(使人尴尬的)!I have never forgotten the word"marinara"since then.
I also had to make a wrap(卷饼) for the first time.I had tasted Mexican wraps many times in China,but making one was a different matter.I could feel my face was burning with sweat and embarrassment as I broke the thin wraps again and again while people were waiting impatiently.Mexican wraps taste great when they're soft,but I do wish they could be made thicker and harder so they wouldn't break so easily.
My favorite part of the job is working in the kitchen.I hold the water cannon(水枪) like a policeman about to fight with"criminals"----the dirty dishes.It's quite exciting to feel the water rushing out of the pipe.I usually get thoroughly(彻底地) soaked,but it feels good,a bit like taking a shower.Sometimes our boss allows us to play music to cheer us up.I often hum along to the music while washing dishes.
This is my first experience of being a student worker.It is hard work,but it's turning out to be quite fun.
