Time to Shop
It was time to go to the market. He had no bananas, no apples, and no milk. He got into his car and drove to the market. It was only five minutes away. The parking lot was almost empty. Good, he thought. He wouldn’t have to stand in a long line. He parked his car and walked over to the shopping cart area. He pulled out one of the carts and pushed it ahead of him into the store. Inside, he grabbed an alcohol wipe and wiped the handle of the cart. Then he grabbed another wipe and wiped his own hands. You can never be too careful, he thought. He turned left and walked over to the produce section. Today was his lucky day. Apples were on sale, a dollar a pound. Usually they were two dollars a pound or more. He put 10 apples into a plastic bag and weighed the bag. It was three pounds. He walked over to the bananas. They were the regular price, 79 cents a pound. He bought three pounds of bananas. When he saw the carrots, he remembered that he needed carrots, too. He put a two-pound bag of carrots into his cart. They were only $1.29. He walked to the dairy section and saw that a gallon of milk was $4. He put one into his cart and walked back to the front of the store. He paid for his food, got his receipt, and walked out to his car. He put the food into his trunk and drove home.
該去超市購物了。他沒有香蕉、蘋果和牛奶了。他開車前往市場。距離市場只有5分鐘車程。停車場的轎車不多。他想這太棒了。他用不著排長隊了。他將車開入停車場,向停放購物車的地方走去。他拿了一輛購物車,推著車走入超市。他拿了張消毒紙巾,擦了擦購物車的扶手。又拿了一張紙,擦了擦自己的手。他想這下萬無一失了。之后向左轉,進入農產品區。今天是他的幸運日。蘋果大促銷,每磅一美元。通常是每磅兩美元或更多。他往塑料袋放了10個蘋果,隨后稱重。總共三磅。他前往香蕉售賣區。價格和平常一樣,每磅79美分。他買了三磅香蕉。他看到了胡蘿卜,他想到需要胡蘿卜。他將兩磅胡蘿卜放進了購物車。價格僅1.29美元。他走向了奶制品區,一加侖牛奶售價4美元。他將牛奶放進購物車,之后回到店門口。他付了款,商店給了他小票,之后走回車里。他將食物放進后備箱,開回了家。
