　　(2016·绵阳第二次诊断)Since my family were not going to be helpful about my taking a cooking job, I decided I would look for one all by myself and not to tell them about it till Id got a permanent one.

　　I had seen an agency advertised in a local paper, so as soon as there was no one about to say “Where are you going？” I rushed out of the house in search of it. I was wildly excited, and as nervous as if I were going on the stage. Finding the place quite easily, I tore up three flights of stairs, and swung breathlessly through a door which said “Enter without knocking, if you please.”

　　The simple atmosphere of the office calmed me, and I sat down on the edge of a chair. The woman at the desk opposite looked carefully at me. Then she questioned me in a low voice. I answered softly and started to feel helpless. She wondered why I was looking for this sort of job, so I felt I had to give her the idea of a widowed mother struggling against poverty. But I felt more helpless when she told me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience or references. Suddenly, the telephone on her desk rang. While having a mysterious conversation, she kept looking at me. Then I heard her say, “In fact, I?ve got someone here who might suit.” She wrote down a number, and my spirits rose as she held out the paper to me, saying, “Ring up this lady. She wants a cook immediately. Cook a dinner for ten people tomorrow. Could you manage that, I wonder？”
