Passage Two
Mr. Anders worked in a hospital. Three years ago, when he was sixty-eight, he retired. But a lot of people still come to ask him to look them over. He’s very busy in the daytime and he wants to have a good rest at night.
Half a year ago a young man moved into the room upstairs. At first he was quiet. The old man was satisfied with him. But now he has several friends. They often come to see him in the evening. They talk loudly, sing and dance. Mr. Anders is unhappy, but he seldom says anything about it.
It was the young man’s birthday yesterday. All his friends came at seven in the evening. They drank too much and made a lot of noise. The old man couldn’t fall asleep the whole night. In the morning, as soon as he got up, he went upstairs and knocked at the door. The young man opened it for him and asked him in.
“Did you hear me strike the ceiling last night, young man?” asked Mr. Anders. “It doesn’t matter, sir.” said the young man, “I don’t mind it. It was very noisy in my room, too.”
Mr. Anders is a ____.
A. teacher B. policeman C. doctor D. gatekeeper正确答案C
