Martin is a man of all trades and of many experiences. He never stays at one job for more than six months and never leaves the job of his own will . He is not actually lazy or unfit and his employers(雇主) can not be said to be unreasonable. He is ,according to one of his former employers, too eager for the work that his employer has the least intention to let him do. One fact about Martin is that he never waits long to find s new job. Last month ,he was fired again. Mr. King, the owner of a small shop hired him to paint his new house. He readily accepted the job without a word. When later Mr. King went to see how things were going on there, he couldn't find Martin. Instead he saw four workmen carefully painting the wall. “What's the matter?” he wondered. “Hi, Mr. King!” he heard Martin's voice calling from behind. “They're working hard, aren't they?” Mr. King turned back. He saw Martin smiling at him. “What's happened, Martin? And why are these workers here?” Mr. King asked. “I've hired them at 8 dollars for each man.” Martin told him happily. “But I will only pay 30 dollars for the whole work.” Mr. King couldn't understand. “I know, Mr. King. But just think, I only reed to pay another two dollars and then can enjoy the happy feeling of being a boss. Isn't it worth the money?”

1．D 导解：从文中可知，他这么做只是为了寻找当老板的感觉，因此，A，B，C三项与此不符，而文中提到“老板一点也不想让他做时他急于要去做”，选D． 2．B 导解：只花两元钱就可以买个乐，谁能说他不是乐天派． 3．C 导解：当King看到四个人干活时，“What's the matter?”he wondered.由此可见他感到惊讶． 4．C 导解：全文围绕Martin的经历展开叙述，讲述这个乐天派的趣事．A，B太泛，D妄加评论，都不对． |
