整的短文。
Walter John was a 20-year-old college student
from
Homewood,Alabama.As a young man in college far away from
home,he didn't have much money.He had to work part-time to
cover his living costs.
Recently he gave up his part-time job in the fast-food business
and found a new one at a home-moving company called
Bellhops.The pay for his new job was higher,and John gained
more flexibility with his hours,which allowed him to focus on
his studies a bit more.He wanted to do everything he could to
secure this new employment opportunity,so he thought he had
to try his best to make sure that everything would go well on
his first day!
But sometimes,life hits you unexpectedly.A day before John
began his new job,his car broke down!With little money to his
name,he couldn't have his car repaired at the garage.None of
his friends were able to take him to work.What was worse,the
public transportation was not running at his working time.If he
took a taxi,it would cost him half his salary.Therefore,he
decided to walk to the company.
In order to get there by six in the morning,he thought that the
safest way would be to leave at midnight.John even challenged
himself to arrive there one hour earlier.Even though it seemed
like such a far walk,John knew he was fit enough to do it.This
was challenging,but John knew it was possible.
He grabbed his wallet and his phone and left his apartment.As
soon as he stepped out of the door,he realized that walking
alone in the dark at midnight can be dangerous.Moreover,he
had to walk through a large wood as well as many blocks of the
city.Therefore,he went back to take a bat (and a kitchen
knife for safety purposes.In case a wild animal or some bad
person attacked him,at least he would have something for
protection.
