Edgar felt quite excited at the thought of his first swim of the summer.With the sun shining down.so strongly,the sea was certain to be warm enough.He walked quickly along the sea – front towards the steps that led on to the sands.He smiled cheerfully at the people.He had just smiled and waved his hat to an elderly lady when a man with a camera caught his arm and stopped him.Edgar heard a little buzzing noise (“咝”的响声) from the camera.
"Your photo,sir,in bright colour in just one moment if you please," said the man
Then the buzzing stopped,and the cameraman handed the photo over,and Edgar saw the bright blue of his shirt half filling the picture.
"Seventy pence,sir ," the man said ."It' s the bargain of your holiday."
"Seventy pence," Edgar repeated,"For this photo
"They're normally (正常地) eighty - five,sir,but for one person I make a cut - price offer(出价).It's the best price you’11 get in Chadwell."
"You'll have to make a better offer." Edgar said.It was a good photo though,he thought,so bright and clear .His hat was held high,and he was smiling happily at the old lady,whose arm and handbag came into a lower corner.He had had no idea that he was being snapped (快照) .He thought he was really quite a good - looking man.
"That' s as good as any studio (照相馆) job that would cost you pounds," said the
cameraman.It's better in a way because it' s so natural.Only seventy pence,sir.
"I' ve never paid so much for a photo in my life.It isn' t worth that kind of money.It' s not as if I need the thing.Look,I'll give you twenty-five."
"No,I can't do that .Each of these colour photos costs me 5Op - that' s the price of the blank frame (像纸) ,so you see ...”
"No,No," Edgar broke in."You want a profit of forty per cent.Well,I' 11 give you your 5Op and that' s that."
"Let me see,then." The man suddenly took the photo out of.Edgar' s hand ."I can't spend any more time on it with you.It' s 7Op or I keep it ."
"Keep it ," Edgar said.He turned,looked out to seal then walked quickly away.
