專四聽寫: Dick's Job

Dick was a clever and hardworking student, but his parents were poor, so he had to work after class and during his holidays to get enough money for his studies. One summer he got a job in a butcher's shop during the daytime, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learned to cut and sell meat. In the hospital, of course, Dick was told to do only the easiest jobs. He helped to lift people and carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both in the butcher's shop and in the hospital, Dick had to wear white clothes. One evening in the hospital, Dick had to help to carry a woman from her bed to the operating room. The woman already felt frightened when she thought about the operation. When she saw Dick coming to get her, she felt even more frightened. "No! No!" she cried, "Not my butcher! I won't let my butcher operate on me!" With these words, she fainted away.
