"Be proud of what you do," my father always told me, " whether you are a boss or a floor mopper. " When I was 15, I got a summer job at the local hospital, where I was told that my duties would include mopping floors. I smiled and remembered Dad’s advice.
Even though my job was the lowest, I was thrilled to have some work to do. I didn’t see it as a handicap but as a challenge, because it was my first job. I learned to be
punctual
and to meet certain standards. In return, I was treated with respect by hospital staff and patients. Each morning I imagined that the plates coated with oatmeal would only make patients sicker, if I were not there to wash them clean. Once breakfast was done, I pitched in by mopping the floors of all patient wards, and cleaning toilets. Though I was exhausted, I knew that if the floors didn’t shine, it would reflect badly on me. I wanted the job to be done well. People would beam and say, "That young guy surely does a good job. " That gave me an overwhelming sense of pride.
Working at the hospital taught me that being proud of one’s job is part of the commitment to your work. It doesn’t matter whether the commitment is mopping floors or managing a large business. Through every job I have ever held, my father’s advice has always stayed with me. I have mopped floors, and I have been promoted to manager of a large business. I think Dad would be proud of me.
Which one is NOT included in the author’s duties?
选项
A、Looking after patients.
B、Sweeping floors.
C、Washing plates.
D、Cleaning toilets.
答案
A
解析
根据第二段第五、六句“Each morning I imagined that the plates…if I were not there to wash them clean…I pitched in by mopping the floors of all patient wards, and cleaning toilets. ”可知,每天早上作者负责把盘子洗干净,之后把所有病房里的地板拖干净,然后打扫洗手间,即作者的职责包括洗盘子、拖地板和打扫洗手间,但不包括照顾病人。故选A。
