　　Tom needed money for travelling, so he decided (决定) to get a job during the summer holiday. Some of his friends worked in shops for a few hours every week and the others helped farmers on farms, but Tom liked neither (两者都不) of these jobs. He took a job painting (油漆) yellow lines down the middle of a highway (公路).

　　On his first day he painted ten miles, and his boss (老板) said, “keep it up and I'll give you more money.” The next day Tom did five miles, and the boss said, “well, five miles isn't as good as ten, but keep up the good work.” The following day Tom painted only one mile. The boss called Tom in and said, “first you did ten miles, then you did five miles, then you did one mile. You're not doing the work, so I have to let you go.”

　　As Tom walked away from the office, he said to himself, “but it is not my fault (过错). Each day I kept getting farther away from the paint can (罐).”
