阅读理解;根据短文内容,选择最佳*。
Our village carpenter(木匠), John Hill, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill(账单) for the job.
My wife said to me, quietly, “That’s his sixth cup of tea today.” But she said, in a loud voice, “It’s a beautiful table, dear. Isn’t it?”
“I’ll decide about that when I see the bill.” I said.
John laughed and gave me his bill for the work. I read:
One dining table 10 November *
Cost of wood(木头费用) $17.00
Paint(油漆) 1.50
Work, 8 hour($1 an hour) 8.00
Total(合计) $36.50
When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s been a fine day, hasn’t it? Quite sunny.”
“Yes,” I said. “I’m glad it’s only the 10th of November.”
“Me, too.” Said John. “You wait—it’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.”
“Yes. Colder—and more expensive! Dining tables will be $20 more expensive on November 30th, won’t they, John?”
John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him.
“If it isn’t too much trouble, John,” I said, “please add(加) it up again. You can forget the date— ”
I paid him $26.50 and he was happy to get it.
