B 2 （北京）股份有限公司 Before I can tell you what happened to me, you first must learn about my job: perform underwater repairs. As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to office. It’s a wet suit. This time of year the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is a water heater. This $ 20,000 piece of equipment that sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful temperature. It then pumps it down to the diver (潜水员) through a garden pipe. Now, this all sounds like a wonderful plan, and I’ve used it several times. What I do when I get to the bottom is take the pipe and stuff it down the back of my wet suit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It’s fantastic. Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt (屁股) started to itch (痒). So, of course, I scratched it. This, of course, only made things worse. Within a few seconds my butt started to feel hot. I pulled the pipe out from my back, thinking that maybe the water was too hot, but the damage was done. In pain, I realized what had happened. The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish (水母) and pumped it directly into my suit. Now, since I don’t have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn’t stick to it. I immediately informed the dive director of my situation over the communicator. His reply was unclear due to the fact that he, along with five other divers, were all laughing hysterically. Needless to say, I gave up the dive. As I climbed out of the water, the doctor, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my butt. The cream put the fire out, but I couldn’t poop (排泄) for two days because my bottom was swollen. So, next time you’re having a bad day at work, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your bottom. Now repeat to yourself, “I love my job, I love my job, I love my job.” May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day. 24. What is the writer? A. A surfer. B. A swimmer. C. An officer. D. A repairman. 25. What happened to the writer under the sea? A. He was bitten by a strange fish. B. The hot water burned his butt. C. His skin was cut by something. D. A jellyfish was attached to his back. 26. Why didn’t the director make his reply clear? A. Because the doctor put in a word. B. Because he didn’t intend to help him. C. Because his voice mixed with laughter. D. Because voice ran slower under the sea. 27. Which of the following can best describe the writer? A. Positive and humorous. B. Kind and friendly. C. Helpful and honest. D. Grateful and selfless.
