Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.
One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment(约会) was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre(轮胎) of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.
Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of job hunters waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease(油渍) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the job hunters left the interviewer’s office with disappointment. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.
Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.
“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a worker who is worth trusting. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.

(答案→)A 解析：文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了已失业数月的汽车技工Jimmy，在一次去面试的途中帮助一位老者修好了汽车，在面试时意外发现老者竟是该公司的总经理。Jimmy 的热心肠得到总经理的赏识，因此使他顺利地得到了一份工作。【小题1】A细节理解题。由第一段首句Jimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago.与A项中“out of work”同义，故选A。【小题2】D细节理解题。根据第二段句子he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car.可知，老人的车出问题了，与D项同义，故选D。【小题3】B推理判断题。根据第三段大意可知：因为帮人修车Jimmy的衣服上沾了油脂，穿这样的衣服去面试难免不适合。尤其是在第三段最后三句Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” 可知，Jimmy听到面试考官的话，更加不自信，认为这次的工作又无望了。故选B。【小题4】D细节理解题。根据第二段句子Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy 无偿帮助需要帮助的人，他要赶着去参加一个面试。老人说，“我可以搭载你去面试的办公室。这是我最起码做的事。”老人用实际行动表达对Jimmy 的感谢。【小题5】C主旨大意题。通读全文，可知Jimmy 无偿帮助他人的精神倍受身为总经理的老者喜欢，这一品德使Jimmy顺利得到工作。A. 有志者事竟成。B. 患难见真情。C. 善有善报。D.三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮。由中文含义判断，选C。

这个解释是对的
