同类题1

54-year- old Abdul has a special job. He has been working as a living statue (活雕像) for over three decades, standing perfectly still for six hours a day and resisting people’s attempts to make him move or smile, anything that proves he is a living person.

Abdul, known as “India’s Statue Man”, has been performing his daily routine ever since 1985, soon after getting a job as a security guard. His boss had ever traveled to the UK, where he was so impressed by the statue-like members of the Royal Guard outside Buckingham Palace that he wanted to do something similar back home. So he had his guards receive three months of training, where they would sit perfectly still for around four hours. They weren’t allowed to talk, smile, eat, drink, or even shoo away a fly if it sat on their faces. In the end, Abdul proved the best of the group, so he got the strange job.

Abdul isn’t the only person in the world acting as a living statue, but what makes him special is the fact that he can do it for as long as six hours without even blinking his eyes. Once, a $155 prize was put up for anyone who can make him move a muscle. But try as they might, no one had ever succeeded. Actually, Abdul tries to move about as much as he can in his spare time, and only eats healthy home-cooked food to keep his body in shape. But he claims yoga has been the biggest help. In the 12 years, Abdul has become a celebrity in India and other Asian countries. Many Bollywood celebrities have come to witness this living statue and try to make him move, but none have succeeded finally.

Abdul earns about 10,000 rupees ($156) a month, which is enough to support his family, but definitely not enough to encourage his children to follow in his footsteps. It’s just too stressful and taxing (费力的) on the body. “Despite all the hardship and health problems, I love my job and I am thankful to people for the love and respect they have showered on me,” he says. “When the time comes, I want to die playing a statue.”

【小题1】What is Abdul’s daily routine?

A．Performing as a living statue.	B．Proving to be a living person.
C．Smiling at his customers.	D．Keeping his body in shape.

【小题2】Why could Abdul get the strange job given by his boss?

A．He had his special ambition.	B．He was quite familiar with the job.
C．He stood out among the guards.	D．He knew the boss more than others.

【小题3】What does Abdul do in his spare time?

A．He eats a lot of snacks.	B．He gives some performances.
C．He cooks for his family.	D．He always moves a lot.

【小题4】How does Abdul feel about his job according to the passage?

A．It’s overpaid.	B．It’s satisfying.
C．It’s boring.	D．It’s instructive.
