Question

John ’ s Favorite Job

John was ten years old, and he was a very lazy boy. He didn’ t like doing any work. He had to go to school of course, but he didn⁵ t study hard there and tried to do as little work as possible. His father and mother were both doctors and they hoped that their son would become one, too, when he grows up. But one day John said to his mother, “I want to be a dustman (清洁工）when I finish school.

“A dustman?” his mother asked, and she was very surprised.

“That’s not a very pleasant job, why do you want to become a dustman?”

“Because then I only have to work one day a week. ”John answered.

“Only one day a week?” his mother said. “What do you mean? And how do you know?”

“ Well，”John answered，“ I know that the dustmen. They come to our house to work on Thursday， because I only see them on that day. There is some rubbish in our house. They collect (收集)it and take it away.
