Question

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

　　After breakfast Mrs Cotton said to Kurt,“ You really ought to tidy your room．I should have cleaned it weeks ago but it's been impossible because of all your things all over the place．”

　　So Kurt went upstairs and began to sort out all his belongings．There were a lot of things that ought to have been thrown out ages ago．Among the things he found some old school reports from St．Mark's Grammar School where he was educated．They had been put into the drawer years ago and hadn't been taken out for ages．Kurt looked through these and thought about some of the boys and masters he used to know．Most of the boys had done much better than he had；they had all either got good jobs or were studying at university．

　　Kurt hadn't worked very hard，especially in his last two years at school、Instead he used to waste his time and everybody said he ought to have worked much harder．Unfortunately，he failed his A-level examinations and his parents were very disappointed．In their opinion he should have become a doctor like his father．

　　When he left school，he found it very difficult to get a decent(体面的)job．First of all，he became a clerk in an insurance(保险)company．This was a very boring job．He used to sit at a desk all day and copy figures from one piece of paper to another．He then got his job in the library．

　　“But I don't really like it there，”he thought，“I oughtn't to stay there all my life．I ought to try and study again and get something good like some of the boys I shall see at the dance tonight Now I ought to get on and tidy my room, I suppose．
