b) Suggested Answer

I wouldn’t mind working in a bookshop. It would be nice to be surrounded by books, and it would not be difficult work most of the time. On the other hand, it could be really boring. Also, it could be annoying helping customers sometimes. Finally, I’m sure it is not a well-paid job. All in all, there are probably other jobs I would rather do.
