阅读理解why did the painter send the star bill?the passage is a(an)_story?
A beautiful and very successful actress was the star of a new musical show.Her home was in the country,but she did not want to go back there every night,so she rented an expensive flat in the center of the city,bought some beautiful furniture and hired a man to paint the rooms in new color.
It was very difficult to get tickets for her show because everybody wanted to see it.So she decided to give the painter two of the best seats.She hoped that this would make him work better and more willingly for her.He took the tickets without saying anything,and she heard no more about him until the end of the month,when she got the painter's bill.At the bottom of it were the words,"Four hours watching Miss Hall sing and dance;$40," with the note:"After 5 p.m.I get ten dollars an hour instead of eight dollars."
