【解析】

短文讲述富人希望他儿子勤奋负责，让儿子把挣到的钱扔进井里，最后儿子明白了挣钱不容易。

【1】根据前文“A rich man had a lazy son.”可知这个富人的儿子懒惰；根据后文“…he asked him to go out and make some money. If he couldn’t , he couldn’t have his meal at night.”可知富人让儿子出去挣钱，如果他挣不到钱，晚上就不能吃饭。结合选项，中间应是：他想让他儿子勤奋负责。故选B。

【2】根据前文“The father then asked him to throw it into a well（井）.”可知富人让儿子把金币扔进井里，此句应承接上文，陈述儿子的表现，即：儿子立刻做到了。故选E。

【3】根据前文“The next day he sent his wife to her parent’s town and asked his son to make money again.”可知富人把妻子送到她父母那里，妻子不会像上次那样给儿子金币，他儿子得不到母亲的帮助只能自己找工作挣钱。结合选项，此处应是：由于无人帮助，儿子只好去市场找工作。故选A。

【4】根据前文“The son almost cried out.”可知儿子几乎哭了，他知道对他来说挣到钱不容易。结合选项，此处应是：我不容易得到钱！故选C。
