What is the speaker?
I enjoy talking to people. Once you start getting regular customers, you take your time to talk, which makes the job more enjoyable. It also makes me wonder about people. Some people are out working like every penny counts. Other people, it’s a status thing with them. They really like to talk about it. I had a man the other day who was buying stock. "Oh well, I’m buying Fifty thousand dollars worth of AT & T, and I’m also investing in..." He wouldn’t stop talking. He was trying to impress me that he has money, therefore he’s somebody.
Money doesn’t mean that much to me. To me, it’s not money to me unless I’m the one who’s taking the money out or cashing the check. That’s money because it’s mine. Otherwise it doesn’t really mean anything. Somebody asked me "Doesn’t bother you, handling all that money all day long?" I said, "It’s not money to me. I’m a magician. I’ll show you how it works." So I counted out paper. I said, "Over there, at this window, it’s nothing. Over there, at that window, it’s money." If you were going to think about it every minute:" Oh look, here’s five thousand dollars, wow! Where could I go on five thousand dollars? Off to Bermuda..." You’d get a hang - up, and so dissatisfied at having to deal with money that is not yours, you couldn’t work.
选项
A、A shop assistant.
B、A bank teller.
C、A regular customer.
D、A stock broker.
答案
B
解析
推理题。从独白的后面部分听到的一些关键词如“taking the money out(取钱)”、“cashing the check(兑支票)”以及有人问独白者“Doesn’t bother you,handling all that money all day long?(你每天和钱打交道,难道不会对钱有一些想法吗?)”等等可以推断作者很可能是银行的工作人员,即B项中的bank teller。
