题目详情

 Ron was an engineer. He planned a change and tried the new job of teaching kids how to swim. Ron’s easy manner soon made him a full-time employee at the swim school.

  Now, the 40 hours he works a week takes in weekends, early mornings and late afternoons. He earned around 25% less than he did in engineering. But, at 49, he says he has never been happier. “I’ve had a drop in pay, but I’ve cut back on spending, too. I seldom drive to work so don’t have to pay as much for petrol(汽油). I don’t drink as much. I go walking in my lunch break and I’ve lost 20 kilos. I love going to work. The whole family is a lot happier.”

  When one of his brothers called, offering to help him find “a real job”, he answered, “I don’t care. I know what I’m doing is good.”

  He admits it was fearful making such a big change when there was the mortgage(分期付款)to pay and kids to clothe and feed, but in the end he feels it is a simple choice. “If you’re in a job you don’t like, get out. Money’s not everything. If you don’t like it, change-find something you’re going to be happy with.”

What’s Ron’s advice to the readers?(  )

  • A.Stick to the job if you have kids to raise
  • B.Stick to the job if you have mortgage to pay
  • C.Change the job if you don’t like it any more
  • D.Change the job if you don’t get enough money

细节理解题。根据短文最后一段罗恩的话“If you’re in a job you don’t like, get out”可知,罗恩认为如果你不喜欢自己的工作,那直接走人就行了。故选C。
