第二部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

“For university I have to get a summer job.” I heard a secondary-school student telling his friend. “But it won’t be a factory job. What would I learn from a factory job?”

I’d like to tell him about the lessons I learned from a factory job the summer before my last year in secondary school, many years ago. On my first day on the job, in a paint factory, the plant manager said to me, “I need another pair of sky hooks. Would you go into the next department and get some?” Off I went. There was no sky hook in that department. I was sent to another one, then another. I ended up visiting every department in the factory. When I returned empty-handed, I was told with much laughter there was no such thing as a sky hook. This is the way the factory used to get to know a new hire. Learning the social skill of accepting good-natured hazing (捉弄) was my first lesson.

Before working inside the paint factory, a new hire had to scrape (刮去) and paint the outside of the building. After working in the hot sun, I returned home with tired hands, and I learned to respect the honest factory worker, man or woman. When I started painting the next day, I was not sure how to do it because of my experience. The managers knew that. When I finished the first side of the wall, all the nearby workers came out and cheered for me. The memory of that day is still with me. I learned that the fruit that we get from honest labour is one of the sweetest of all pleasures.

On certain days, when the ship came, six workers were picked to unload 50-pound bags of paint ingredients. We started at 7 a.m., and when we finished we could go home. If everyone worked hard, the afternoon was free time. It was a great management tool. I learned it is possible to make a difficult task into a good exercise in teamwork.

I learned so much that summer. I hope the secondary-school student would not refuse a factory job if he is offered one.

61. The writer wrote down his experience in a factory in order to show that _______. A. life is hard in a factory

B. it is valuable to work in a factory D. factory people are very kind and honest

B. visited all the departments and met many workers D. tried to get some sky hooks from another place

C. the secondary-school student was foolish A. came back with some sky hooks

62. The manager who sent the writer to get sky hooks would be satisfied if the writer _______. C. realized it was a joke and did not get angry

63. After the writer did the unloading with five other workers he thought _______.
