中考阅读理解深入逻辑分析-001 A Dine to Remember 难忘的一餐
文章正文
It was a few years ago.
A friend had sent me a restaurant gift card for Christmas and I had picked a sunny Sunday afternoon to use it.
It felt good taking my two grown sons and daughter to a nice sit-down restaurant instead of the fast-food places
we usually ate at.
The meal was delicious and we all had a good time just being together.
When the waitress brought the check. I looked down at it. The gift card covered almost all of it. I reached into
my wallet to get enough cash to cover the rest. I saw two bills in my wallet. The first would cover the rest of the
bill and give the waitress a nice tip. The second bill was much larger so I reached down to pick out the first one.
At that moment my mind flashed back to 30 years ago. I was working as a waiter in a restaurant much like the
one we were in now. It was long hours of hard work for low pay. I went home just only making enough to feed
my young family. I also remembered how more than once I saw the waitress counting their little tips worrying
about how they were going to pay the rent and buy their kids things they needed. I remembered the pain in their
eyes and sadness in their faces at the end of the day.
I blinked(眨眼)and was back in the present again. My fingers touched the smaller bill in my wallet. I smiled,
pushed it back down, and picked out the much larger bill. I folded it around the gift card and covered both of
them with the check. As we all got up from the table, I handed them to the hard-working waitress. “You keep the
change,” I said with a smile and a happy heart.
We are all children of the same earth. Do your best to be kind then.
