    A jobless man wanted very much to have the position of “office boy” at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed(面试) him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. “You have passed the test,” he said. “Give me your e-mail address and I’ll send you the form（表格） to fill in and the date when you may start.” The man replied, “But I don’t have a computer, neither an e-mail.” “I’m sorry,” said the HR manager. “If you don’t have an e-mail, that means you are not living.

    阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。

    “Be proud of what you do,” my father often tells me. “whether（无论是） you are a manager or a cleaner.” At the age of 15, I got my first job----a summer job in a hospital. My work is to wash dishes and sweep the floors. I smiled and remembered Dad’s words.

    My job was the lowest, but it made me feel excited. I saw it as a challenge(挑战) because it was my first job. I learned to be on time and tried to do everything well. People in hospital all liked me. Every morning I always thought that the dirty dishes would make people ill without my job to wash them. After breakfast was done, I started sweeping the floors of all patients’ (people who are ill) rooms and cleaning restrooms. I was very tired, but I wanted to do the job well. People often say, “That young boy really does a good job.” That gave me a pride.

    Working in the hospital taught me that being proud of one’s job is important. It doesn’t matter whether the job is sweeping floors or doing a large business. I have swept floors, and I have been a manager. My father’s words have always stayed with me. I think Dad would be proud of me.

    1.When did the writer start his first job?

    2.Did the writer feel excited or nervous about his first job?

    3.Did people in hospital like the writer?

    4.What did the writer do when he was in the hospital?

    5.What made the writer do everything well?
