阅读理解:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项.
When I was about 11, I inherited(继承)my older brother's paper route. It was a good job, though it meant waking up at the crack of dawn and hopping on my bike in Rockford, to deliver papers.
Punctuality was critical. People expected the paper on their front porch by 6 a. m. .If I ran late, they would be standing in their doorways and I would definitely hear about it. On the other hand, doing the job professionally often resulted in much appreciated tips.
Ever since, I have tried to do as professional a job as possible-whether it be bagging groceries, painting houses or tarring(用柏油覆盖) roofs. Acting is not different. I believe if you work hard and behave like a pro, it will pay off, and you will be offered more and better roles.
This means giving your all. If a scene requires another character to react to my jumping into the water, I will jump in as many times as it takes to help him and the director get the shot. Several years ago, while filming a movie in the mountains of Brazil, my fellow actors and I all pitched in to help the crew move heavy equipment through rugged jungle.
Acting is a job like any other, and you can't let it go to your head. The things that made a difference delivering papers-being thorough, punctual, doing your best-also count on the movie set. And I still have to wake up at the crack of dawn.
