This can give【C4】______to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a(n) 【C5】______for the Ellesmere Corporation.
When he got married, Alf was too【C6】______to say anything to his wife about his job. He simply told her that he worked for the Corporation. Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit. He then【C7】______into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman.【C8】______returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for over two years and his fellow dustmen kept his secret. Alf s wife has never【C9】______that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just found another job. He will soon be working in an office. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in【C10】______is well worth the loss of money.
