"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 TRUE according to the passage?
选项
A、Working at the hospital made the author feel awful.
B、The father’s words have always encouraged the author in his career.
C、The author’s father has stayed with him all the time.
D、The author was treated with disrespect at the hospital.
答案
B
解析
根据最后一段第三句“Through every job I have ever held, my father’s advice has always stayed with me. ”可知,在作者做过的每一份工作中,他父亲的忠告一直伴随着他。由此可推知,作者父亲的忠告总是在作者的职业生涯中鼓励着他。故选B。
