After Christmas, I took a job in the clothes department at G

圣诞节后,我参加了在格雷厄姆衣服部门为sale.I 1月头两个星期的不能说,我喜欢它,但它是一个经验,我永远不会忘记工作.
我无法理解为什么有在sales.Now我知道秘密,所以很多事情!第一,有一个特殊的冬天股票和股票,人们购买所有这些事情round.Some年silghtly reduced.Secondly是,有是夏季服装,他们无法出售去年有大量减少,清除them.Thirdly,有买便宜的衣服,尤其是对销售,这些都是放在10天前,高价格出售,然后开始进行的降低60％的sale.Lastly,他们购买的“秒”出售,他们出售的非常便宜.
当我到达半就发售首日开幕前一小时,已经有一约3建筑物双方队列.
当大的时刻来临之际,打开门,保安员,平常看不到信心,走近他们,在hand.The时刻,他们车匙开启的门,他们躲在为被控嘈杂的人群,保护门.我无法相信自己的眼睛,这是不是shopping.It是战场!一个可怜无法跟上她的脚,被一辆从后面推人了.
衣服飞行四面八方人们的大小,颜色和样式,他们wanted.Quarrels搜查后发生out.Mothers利用其子女的爬行通过人的腿和掌握的东西,他们无法接近自己.
几分钟内,我有五六人推在我的鼻子衣服,每一个想成为第一个served.Where有著名的英国队列里去了?一整天这样继续下去,但我还是我的脾气!我而言是个钱了拳头的手并开始意识到,为什么每年两次,格雷厄姆的很高兴,把这样一个战场昂贵的商店.
在销售热,人们不加思索地消费,如果他们需要什么,他们买东西.只要是便宜的,这是行如流水.
你不会相信这一点,但只要我回到家,我坠毁四小时后,但是,我共进晚餐,又回到床上,担心的警号,告诉我能为第二天的好声音销售.

在圣诞节后,我需要一些钱.我在格雷厄姆（应该是地名）找到了一份服饰店的工作,为了拿到一个月中头两个星期的薪水.不能说我很享受这份工作.但是它是我不会忘记的经历!

I needed to get some money,so,after Christmas,I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale.I can’t say that I enjoyed it,but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
我需要挣些钱,所以过完圣诞节后,我在葛理翰的服装部找到了一份工作,为一月份首两周大甩卖.我不能说喜欢这份工作,但这一段经历我永远不会忘记.
I could never understand why there were many things in the sales; where did they come from?Now I know the secret!Firstly,there is the special winter sack and the stock that people buy all the year round; some of these things are slightly reduced.Secondly,there are the summer clothes they couldn’t sell last year; these are heavily reduced to clear them.Thirdly,there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales; these are put at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale.Clever!Lastly,they buy in “seconds”( clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.
我以前不明白为什么有这么多东西作促销,是从那里来的?现在我知道这个秘密了!首先,有些特别的冬装和整年都会买的库存,这些东西的一部分会稍微降价.其次,还有他们去年卖不完的夏天衣服,这些要大大折价以清仓.第三,有些便宜的衣服专门买来作促销; 这些衣服在促销开始十天前标以高价,然后在促销时降价60%.聪明!最后,他们会购买“二手货”(有些小缺陷的衣服)用作促销,他们会卖得非常便宜.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale,there were already queues around three sides of the building.This made me very nervous.
促销第一天,当我在开门前半小时到达时,排队就已经围绕着大楼三面了.这让我很紧张.
When the big moment arrived to open the doors,the security guards,looking less confident than usual,came up to them,keys in hand.The moment they had unlocked the doors,they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd crowded in.I couldn’t believe my eyes:this wasn’t shopping,it was a battlefield.One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocked over by people pushing from behind.
开门重要时刻到来了,保安走到了大门,看上去不如以往那样自信,手里拿着钥匙.在他们打开门锁的那一刻,喧闹的人群拥挤进来,保安躲到了门的背后以求保护.我简直不敢相信自己的眼睛:这不是在购物,这是一个战场.一个可怜的女人根本站不住脚,被后面的人群推倒在地.
Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes,colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out.Mothers were using their small children to craw through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves.
衣服在各个方向飞舞,人们寻找他们所要的尺寸、颜色和样式.争吵爆发了.母亲们利用她们的小孩挤过众腿之间,来拿他们自己不能靠近的东西.
Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing under my nose,each wanting to be the first served.Where had the famous queue gone?The whole day continued like that,but I kept my temper !I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,twice a year,Graham’s is happy to turn the expensive store into a battlefield like this.
在几分钟之内,有半打的人推搡到了我的眼皮底下,每人都想要成为第一个得到服务的.著名的队列哪里去了?整天都持续这样,但我保持住了我的脾气!我正在赚大钱,并开始意识到为什么每年有两次,格雷厄姆很高兴把昂贵的商店变成像这样的一个战场.
In the sale fever,people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying.As long as it was bargain it was OK.
在促销热潮中,人们花钱简直就像流水一样,而不考虑他们买的是否所需要的.只要是打折的就可以.
You won’t believe this,but as soon as I got home I crashed out for four hours.Then I had dinner and went back to bed,feeling the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.
你不会相信,但是我一回到家就大睡了四个小时.吃过晚饭后,又回到了床上,感觉闹钟的声音告诉我要准备好第二天的促销.
