A job well done
Whirrr. The deafening sound of a power washer echoed in the neighborhood. Earlier, my dad had bought a power washer—and we were finally going to get our deck clean. After years of using a brush, we now had a high-power, high-pressure washer: a little square machine that sprayed out a strong stream of water.
My dad took the first shift, and washed our upper deck. I watched in amazement as the washer simply left clean wood—exactly the color of the paint originally. “Wow, our deck sure got dirty this year,” I thought. However, that was exactly why we were cleaning—so that we could have sparkling floors outside once again. The machine hummed along, and I decided to change before I had to start cleaning. I put on some light clothing, since the sun was high in the sky, and a sunhat to protect my face from a sunburn.
I took charge of the lower deck. I could feel the machine vibrating the whole deck, and I nervously started on a corner. It felt as if the whole deck would fall! But after a few minutes and no large cracking sound, I relaxed and let the loud monotonous buzzing send me into a comfortable pattern. Left, right, left, right. Surprisingly, the paint on the lower deck ended up being completely stripped off! It wasn’t that big of a loss though, since we were going to repaint the deck anyhow. Left, right, left, right. Soon, I had made a large sized “hole” of unpainted deck.
I looked to my left—sigh. There was still a lot left to go.
The sun shined, and I kept going. Buzz, buzz. Left, right, back, and forth. Slowly, I moved from the top to the bottom, from one end of the deck to the other. With the last bit sprayed clean, I jumped for joy! Finally, it was done. I put away the machine, went inside and sat down on the couch, and admired my work. A beautiful deck, nice and sparkling from all my hard work!

22、An elderly couple stood outside the door with old coats. “Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that their shoes had holes in them and they were wet. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of tea.” They came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left prints (脚印) on the floor. I gave them tea and bread to protect them against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.
The silence in the living room surprised me. I looked in. The woman held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The man asked me in a low voice, “Lady,are you rich?”
Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at my old things in my room. The woman put her cup back in its saucer (茶碟) carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.”
Then they left, holding their papers against the wind. They didn’t say thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. They had reminded me that I had so much to thank for. The blue cups and saucers were simple. But they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over my head, my husband with a job—these things matched too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them there. I didn’t clear them from the floor. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.

23、I felt very sad because I was not able to get the ticket to the film Hero last Friday. I learned from the newspaper that tickets could be bought at the cinema box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 a. m. and 4:00 p. m. Since I work from 9:00 a. m. to 5:30 p. m. , the only time I could go to the cinema is during my 45 minutes’ lunchtime. It is a pity that the cinema is on the other side of the town and the bus service between my company and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.
Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come round the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip, so I had to go back. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at the cinema in twenty minutes. But when I got there, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man said he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I found I would not have enough time to wait in line. I caught the next bus and went back across the town.
By Friday I understood my only hope was to make the trip by car. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth it to see the film. The trip by car only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I reached the cinema, I was delighted to see that nobody was waiting in line. But I quickly found out that it was because they had already sold out all the tickets.
【1】It seemed that the writer of the story works as a ____.
A.worker
B.doctor
C.farmer
D.clerk
【2】The writer tried to go to the cinema every day, but really got there ____.
A.five times

C.four times
D.three times
【3】We can infer from the underlined sentence that the writer was ____.
A.worried
B.sorry
C.surprised
D.pleased
【4】In the end the writer got ____ ticket(s).
A.one
B.two
C.three
D.no
【5】When the writer reached the cinema, he was delighted because ____.
A.he understood his only hope was to make the trip by car
B.it was expensive, but he felt it would be worth it to see the film
C.he saw that nobody was waiting in line
D.the trip by car only took 10 minutes
