Jack 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 didn’t study hard there and tried to do little work. His father and mother were both doctors and they hoped that when he grew up their son would become a doctor too. But one day Jack said to his mother, “When I finished school, I want to be a cleaner.” “A cleaner?” his mother asked. She was very surprised, “That’s not a good job.” Why you do want to become a cleaner?” “Because I would only have to work one day a week.” Jack answered at once. “Only one day a week?” his mother said. “What do you mean? And how do you know it?” “Well,” Jack answered, “I know that the cleaner comes to work on Thursday every week, because I only see them on that day.” And then his mother laughed and said, “The cleaners go to work on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday in other streets.”

　　四、 听短文， 根据所听内容，选择与文章意思一致的选项。(共5分)

I had a very unusual experience last Saturday. Grandma and I walked in to a restaurant and had our lunch. While we were sitting at table, we saw many people in the street. “What’s going on?’” grandma asked. “Let’s have a look,” I said. When we went over to the crowd, we noticed a very funny donkey walking across the road. We both watched the donkey. It stopped in the middle of the road, and stopped all the traffic. While we were worried, a policeman arrived. “Whose donkey is it?” “It’s mine.” A farmer said. “You must move your donkey.” The policeman said. Then the farmer pulled and the farmer pushed, but the donkey didn’t move. We all laughed. “Give him a carrot!” Grandma cried. “That’s a good idea.” The farmer said. When the donkey saw the carrot, he followed the farmer across the road.
