Unit 3 Finding the correct perspective Section 2 Learning about Language .阅读理解As I put on the shirt，I had a look at my name tag：“Nancy Badilla.Food Services.Six Flags Great Adventure Park.”I said to myself，“I can't make mistakes；my family is depending on me.”Then I walked into the restaurant where I would spend the next couple of months，serving pizza to the theme park crowd.“Don't be nervous，” Vera，my manager，said.“You're smart.Just remember to greet，take the order and deliver the food to their hands.”“Yeah，I got it，”I replied.But when my first customer appeared，I was at a loss.“Excuse me，do you guys serve pies？” the customer asked.Pies? Doesn't he see that this is a pizzeria(比萨饼店)？I thought to myself.“No，”I replied.The customer walked away in disbelief.“Nancy，a pie is a whole pizza.This is a pizzeria.We do indeed sell pies，”explained Vera.At that second，I felt as if I had just shown my foreign underwear to the entire theme park.I frequently looked over to the clock，counting down the minutes until it was time to go back home.The next morning I woke up still tired but I was determined to begin a new day.As I kept working that summer，I made fewer mistakes and I realized that no one looked down on me for the mistakes I made.Instead I was respected for my hard work and honesty.On the last day at Six Flags，I ran into Vera.“Hey Nancy，I want to ask you if you'd like to work on weekends at the restaurant of a friend of mine.I was telling him what a hard­working and enthusiastic worker you are，” she said.Although I politely refused Vera's offer，deciding to focus on school，I left Six Flags that August night standing taller than I had in June.1What happened to Nancy when she served the first customer?AShe delivered the wrong food to the customer.BShe gave the customer a wrong answer.CShe didn't greet the customer.DShe ignored the customer.【解析】细节理解题。由倒数第三段中经理的解释以及前面作者对顾客的回答可知B项正确。【答案】B2How did Nancy feel after Vera said “We do indeed sell pies”？ACurious.BNervous.CConfused.
