Memories always die hard. True! Thirty years ago, I was a second-year medical student practicing at a nearby hospital. My university's philosophy was to get students seeing patients early in their education. Nice as it is, it
11 one detail: second-year students may know next to nothing.
Assigned to my team that day was a fully-occupied doctor and he told us to start small. Along with me were two guys just as 12 as I was, but in a scarier way: they had recently graduated from medical school as MDs (medical doctor).
The day began at 6:30 am. We did a quick check of our three patients and later we were to
13 our findings to the doctor, which we supposed was a piece of cake.
But when I arrived in the room of 70-year-old Mr. Adams, he was sitting up in bed, sweating and 14 heavily. He'd just had a hip operation and looked terrible. I listened to his lungs with my stethoscope, but they
15 clear. Next I checked and found his heart rate had been 16 , but his temperature was steady. It didn't seem like heart failure, nor did it appear to be pneumonia. So I asked Mr. Adams what he thought was going on.
"It's really hot in here, Doc" he replied.
So I concluded that his condition resulted from the stuffy room and told him the rest of the team would return in a few minutes,
17 him it was OK. He then 18 a smile and waved goodbye weakly.
Back to my office, still 19 about Mr. Adams, I checked my textbooks and notes. I
20 when seeing his symptoms on the page: heavy sweating and shortness of breath
21 clear lungs — that's pulmonary embolism (肺部栓). Obviously, I made a silly mistake and 22 consumed me.
"Code Blue Room307!", however, I instantly called the doctor, 23 to the room.
24 , he was still fine and received the immediate operation.
This incident has been in my mind for 30 years. What if I hadn't read that chapter in the textbook? What if I was too scared, too insecure, and too 25 to ask the real doctor for help?

答案以及解析
1. 答案:weave
解析:词性:v.(及物动词)。句意:该公司将编织这张安全网,抵御传播最广的网络蠕虫。will 为情态动词,后接动词原形;weave 表示 “编织”,贴合 “safety net(安全网)” 的搭配,其过去式 wove、过去分词 woven 为高频考点。
2. 答案:deceive
解析:词性:v.(及物动词)。句意:不努力就考不过试,所以别自欺欺人。don't 后接动词原形;deceive oneself 为固定搭配,表 “欺骗自己;自欺”,符合语境。
3. 答案:frank
解析:词性:adj.(形容词)。句意:坦白说,我认为你得到这份工作的几率很小。to be frank 为固定短语(独立成分),表 “坦白地说”,是书面与口语通用的表达,frank 本身表 “坦白的;直率的”。
4. 答案:latter
解析:词性:n./adj.(此处为名词)。句意:人们可以乘船或乘飞机去那里,大多数人选后者。the+latter 为固定用法,表 “后者”,与the former(前者) 构成对应,呼应前文的 ship or plane。
5. 答案:moreover
解析:词性:adv.(副词)、句意:我不想去滑冰,而且冰面也太薄了。moreover 表 “而且;此外”,为递进关系连接词,用于补充说明不想滑冰的另一原因,与 besides、furthermore 同义。
6. 答案:starting with
解析:句意:这位新老师计划下周开公开课,以一首英文歌开场。by 为介词,后接动名词形式;start with 是固定短语,表 “以…… 开头 / 起始”,契合 “公开课以英文歌开场” 的语境。
7. 答案:Apart from
解析:句意:除了英语,这位重点大学的物理教授还研习俄语和西班牙语。
空格后接名词,且句义表 “除…… 之外(还)”,apart from 为介词短语,可表此含义,句首首字母需大写;该短语也可表 “除…… 之外(别无)”,是高中高频万能介词短语。
8. 答案:apply to
解析:句意:无论你从事什么工作,都有一项专业技能可以运用到你的工作中。can 为情态动词,后接动词原形;apply to 是固定搭配,表 “把…… 应用于;运用到”,贴合 “专业技能与工作结合” 的逻辑。
9. 答案:in advance
解析:句意:如果你有任何休假计划,必须至少提前两天告知你的老板。根据 “休假需提前告知” 的语境,in advance 为固定副词短语,表 “提前;预先”,作时间状语,符合句意和搭配习惯。
10. 答案:In conclusion
解析:句意:在演讲的最后,他说:“最后,我借此机会感谢大家的支持。”根据 “at the end of his speech(演讲末尾)” 可知,此处需表总结的短语;in conclusion 为固定表达,表 “最后;总之”,句首首字母需大写,适配演讲 / 写作的结尾总结场景。
11. 答案:A
解析:考查动词词义辨析。句意:尽管这样做很好,但它忽略了一个细节:二年级学生可能什么都不知道。A. ignored忽略;B. admitted承认;C. fancied喜欢;D. rejected拒绝。根据句中让步状语从句"Nice as it is"可知,上下文有转折关系,虽然“让学生在接受教育的早期就去看病人”是一个好的策略,但这一做法“忽略”了一个细节。用动词ignore,表示“忽略了二年级学生可能什么都不知道”这一事实,上下文构成转关系。故选A。
12. 答案:C

13. 答案:D
解析:考查动词词义辨析。句意:我们对我们的三个病人做了快速检查,然后我们将把我们的发现报告给医生,我们认为这是小菜一碟。A. gather聚集;B. explain解释;C. claim声称;D. present展现,递交。根据句中"a quick check of our three patients"和"our findings to the doctor"可推知,作为见习医生,检完房后要给医生上报情况。故选D。

解析:考查动词词义辨析。句意:但当我来到70岁的亚当斯先生的房间时,他正坐在床上,大汗淋漓,呼吸急促。A. crying哭泣;B. breathing呼吸;C. coughing咳嗽;D. sighing叹息。根据下文"I listened to his lungs with my stethoscope(我用听诊器听他的肺)"可知,作者给亚当斯先生检查了肺部,说明他呼吸有问题。故选B。
15. 答案:C
解析:考查动词词义辨析。句意:我用听诊器听了他的肺,但听起来很清晰。A. beat敲,击;B. hit打,击;C. sounded听起来;D. struck打,撞。结合常识和句中"stethoscope(听诊器)"可推知,用听诊器听肺,用的是听觉,所以是“听起来”很清晰。故选C。
16. 答案:D
解析:考查动词词义辨析。句意:接着我检查了一下,发现他的心率一直在上升,但体温很稳定。A. disappearing消失;B. reducing减低;C. staying停留;D. climbing攀登。根据下文"but his temperature was steady"可知,上下文有转折关系,“体温很稳定”与“心率一直在上升”构成转折关系。故选D。
