Tom was a clever boy, but his parents were poor, so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education. In spite of this, he managed to get to the university, but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.

One summer he managed to get a job in a butcher’s shop(肉店)during the day-time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat quite nicely, so the butcher often left him to do all the serving while he went to the back room to do the accounts(账目). In the hospital , on the other hand, he was , of course , allowed to do the simplist jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher’s shop and at the hospital, Tom had to wear white clothes.

One evening at the hospital, Tom had to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her, but when she saw Tom, that finished her.

“No! No!” she cried. “Not my butcher! I won’t be operated on by my butcher!” and fainted away(昏厥).

68. Tom made enough money by ________.

 A. studying in the university         B. working in a butcher’s shop

 C. doing two jobs                  D. cutting meat well

69. Tom was a student, but at the same time he was__________.

 A. a butcher and a doctor           B. a manager and a doctor

 C. an assistant                    D. a manager

70. The woman patient recognized Tom because ____________.

A. he was wearing white clothes    

B. he had sold meat to her

C. he was now working in the hospital  

D. he was going to operate on her

71. When she saw Tom, that finished her, the sight of Tom _________.

A. plunged her into deep sorrow  

B. made her decide not to have an operation

    C. broke her heart        

D. took all her strength and courage away
