问题     The Browns and the Smiths are neighbours. Mr. Brown’s name is Allen. But when his neighbours talk about him, they call him "Mr. Going-to-do." Do you know why? Mr. Brown always says he is going to do something, but nothing happens after that.
    Every Saturday Mr. Brown goes to the Smiths’ back door and talks to Mr. Smith, "I’m going to clean my house today. "he says, or "I’m going to wash my car tomorrow." or "The trees in front of my house are too big, I’m going to cut them down next week."
    Mr. Smith usually says, "Are you, Allen?" He knows his neighbour is not going to clean his house, or wash his car, or cut down any trees. Then he says, "Well, excuse me, Allen, I’m going to do some work in the house." And so he does.
    Mr. and Mrs Smith often say to their children, "Are you going to do something? Then do it! Don’t be another Mr. Going-to-do!"
"Mr. Going-to-do" ______.

选项 A、always says he is going to do something, but he never does it
