三、阅读理解。
Mahalya is a student in Grade 8 at Lamberton Middle School in Pennsylvania, USA. Every afternoon at 2 o'clock, she runs to a store at her school. She is not running to buy snacks. Instead, she works as the storekeeper and helps count change(零钱) for customers.
“I didn't know that it took so much work. I didn't do anything like this,” Mahalya told The Seaeinel, a local newspaper. In fact, she and another 11 students work as the storekeepers at Bison Bargains, the school's first student-run store. It started on February 22, and it opens
each school day during break time from 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm. It mainly sells stationery(文具) and snacks.
Through this, students see what a business is like. Christian, a 14-year-old student, was really surprised by how hard it was to avoid(避免) making mistakes and do the transactions(交易). “It's a kind of challenge(挑战) to learn all the information on the stock(供应物) lists and remember all the prices of the products,” Christian told the newspaper.
To help them learn about business, they took a class. The class taught students how to use money and some simple business rules. The school did
a survey(调查) on what products students would buy from a school store. In the future, they plan to sell things made by the students themselves. For example, students can sell their home-made pencil boxes and phone cases.
( )1.Mahalya runs to a store in her school to ________.
