The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers.Yesterday, I was first to get off the bus when it reached the Airport.I counted the other passengers as they got off.There were 129 of them.

So I got a job at a KFC fast food restaurant and worked there as a cleaner. I worked 7 hours a day for three weeks. The job was hard and boring and seemed endless, which made me so tired that I nearly stopped it half way. After all, I stuck to it with determination. Every day I started off for work early in the morning and got home late in the evening. Finally, I finished the job before the new school term began. Now, I understand what labour means. I think it is really a successful experience. (责任编辑:admin) |
