“Be proud of what you do,” my father klways told me, “whether you are a boss or a cleaner.” When I was 15, I got a summer job in a hospital. I was told that my duties would include sweeping floors, washing dishes and cleaning toilets I smiled and remembered dad's words.
Even though my job was the lowest, it made me feel excited. I regarded it as a challenge because it was my first job. I learned to be on time and tried to do everything well. In return, I was treated with respect (尊敬) by doctors, nurses and patients. Each morning I imagined that the dirty dishes would make patients more sick if I were not there to wash them clean. After breakfast was done, I started sweeping the floors of all patients' rooms andcleaning toilets. Though I was tired, I wanted the job to be done well. People would 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 does not matter whether the job is sweeping floors or managing a large business. Through every job I have ever had my father's words always stay with me. I have swept floors, and I have been a manager. I think dad would be proud of me.

整体把握:父亲的观点:不论你做老板还是清洁工,都应该热爱自己的工作,而且应为自己的工作而自豪。这句话影响了作者一生。作者从 15岁的第一份工作起,就一直这样要求自己。(1) 点拨:文中提到作者15岁时,在医院当过清洁工。这应该是他的第一份工作了。 (2) 点拨:因为作者当时是清洁工,所以没有照看病人。 (3) 点拨:因为作者记着父亲的话,即使清洁工的地位低,他还是很努力地工作,故选C。 (4) 点拨:因为父亲的这句话影响了作者的一生,无论从事什么工作,他都会受这句话的鼓励,努力将工作做好。父亲的这句话总是伴随他,而不是父亲本人一直伴随他。容易误选A。 (5) 点拨:文章主要详细描述了作者在父亲这句话的影响下,是如何做好第一份工作。 |

完形填空(共12分,每小题1分)
阅读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项
I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a book shop hired(雇佣) me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very 1 to earn my own pocket money and my parents 2 interfered(干涉)with how I spent it, even when I was spending it foolishly. They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the 3 , I would become more mature(成熟的) and responsible about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.
Like many American parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they 4 a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around Europe. My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great 5 for me. In the end, my father won the argument(争论) on the 6 that I limited(限定)my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins spread out through the country who could 7 shelter(住处)and help if I needed them.
Three years later, my younger brother decided to 8 a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not eager to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a(n) 9 year working his way on trains and ships to 10 passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.
These kinds of experiences are probably rare(稀少的)for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common. Most parents start 11 their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have selected the university they plan to attend and maybe even 12 on their future career, and so on.
