摘要
在美国,你经常会看到“卖饼干的小女孩”,在街道上、超市或影院门口都能看到她们的身影。她们都来自于一支神奇的队伍,叫做女童子军。这个组织创立于1912年,旨在培养女孩品德,树立女孩信心。而卖饼干则是美国女童子军一项非常重要的传统活动。
I may be the only person on earth who gets angry at the sight of little girl scouts with their parents at the entrances and exits of grocery stores.1 I know you've seen this before. There will be a fold out table full of the item being sold with a mother or father energetically pitching the item to shoppers.2 If you ask the child a question about the cookies or candy bars, the child will look confused and will frantically3 get the parent's attention so she can answer the question for you.
