Some people have a very poor sense(感覺) of direction. Unlucky, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps. I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!

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(校園). 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(挑戰(zhàn)), too.
I have had really funny experiences. One of the sauces is called "marinara" which is a kind of tomato-based sauce like salsa(辣茄醬). 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(使人尷尬的)! I have never forgotten the word "marinara" since then.   
I also had to make a wrap(卷餅) 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(水槍) 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(徹底地) 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.
小題1:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A.When the writer works, he has to stand still all day long.
B.The writer had never imagined working in a dining hall could be fun.
C.The writer found making Mexican wraps very challenging.
D.The writer found it easy to keep track of all the weird food names.
小題2:When the author made Mexican wraps for the first time, ______.
A.he failed to make them thick and hard
B.he ended up with a few dissatisfied customers
C.he had never tasted Mexican wraps before
D.he was proud of what he had made
小題3:What part of the job in the dining hall does the author like best?
A.Making Mexican wraps. B.Delivering food to customers.
C.Washing dishes in the kitchen.D.Making all sorts of sauces.
小題4:What does the underlined word “soaked “ mean? It means _______
A.濕透了的B.酗酒的C.浸泡的D.滲出的
小題5:What is the point in the article?
A.To describe the writer’s fun campus life in the US.
B.To explain the culture of part-time work in the US.
C.To teach readers how to make Mexican wraps.
D.To share the author’s experience of part-time work.
