9． Yesterday I was in a bad mood because of losing my job.I tried to find something else to do to make myself feel better.I went shopping for a pair of trainers to replace the old pair I have been wearing for too long.I would have replaced them months ago but I am one of those women who hate shopping.I hate the crowds and the heat in the shops，but mostly I hate the waiting line.
I was happy as I found my trainers very quickly，but my happiness soon disappeared when I found myself in a very long line for the payment.
This line was long and snaking around a corner.I do hate waiting but I find the best way to pass the time is to talk to the person behind me.
So I turned around and told the woman behind me that the line was looking very long and joked that I hoped we could all hang on.
She laughed and agreed.I caught an English accent（口音）as she spoke，so being a person from Liverpool in England myself，I immediately asked her where she was from.
She rewarded me with a sharp look and said， "England."
Immediately I realized that I had accidentally offended（冒犯）her—she was black and thought I was referring to her colour.I told her I was from Liverpool and had noticed her English accent.
注意：1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150個(gè)左右；
（1）請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
She laughed then and continued chatting.
The line seemed to disappear slowly as we exchanged some information about our life.
