Ⅳ.阅读理解
“How lucky you are to be a doctor...” Anyone who’s a doctor is right out of luck，I thought.Anyone_who’s_studying_medicine_should_have_his_head_examined.
You may think I want to change my job.Well，at the moment I do.As one of my friends says—even doctors have a few friends—it’s all experience.Experience！I don’t need such experience.I need a warm，comfortable and undisturbed bed all my own.I need it badly.I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well.That’s what I need.
All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini (微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East London at 3 ∶45 a．m.on a December morning.I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and a bag of medicines.As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour，the heater first blowing hot then cold，my back aching from the car－seat，I do not feel like a ministering angel.I wish I were on the beach in southern France.Call me a bad doctor if you like.Call me what you will.But don’t call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear－ache that you have had for two weeks.
Of course，being a doctor isn’t really all bad.We_do_have_our_moments. Once in a while people are ill，once in a while you can help，once in a while you are given a cup of tea and rock－hard cake at two o’clock in the morning—then you worry if you have done everything.But all too often “everything” is a repetitious rule：look，listen，feel，tap，pills，injection，phone，ambulance and away to the next.
And then there is always the cool，warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you—the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand in the cold，dark，smelly and dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town.Oh，it has its moments，and this life does.
41．According to the sentence “Anyone who’s studying medicine should have his head examined.” we know that________.
A．a medical student should have a very good memory
B．a doctor must be mentally strong so that he can meet any difficult situation
C．the writer thinks that those who want to be doctors are crazy
D．to be a doctor is a challenge for people’s mental health
42．Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．The writer wishes he could have a quiet，undisturbed night in bed at home.
B．One of his friends says that being a doctor helps one gain all sorts of experience.
C．He hates the telephone as a modern means of communication.
D．He is not happy with the small and uncomfortable car he is driving.
43．The statement “We do have our moments” could best be replaced by “________”．
A．we doctors are called at a moment’s notice to see people who need medical treatment
B．usually we are glad that we can do something to help the sick
C．sometimes we find people are thankful for our help
D．there are chances that doctors find their work rewarding and satisfying
44．From the whole passage，we know that the writer________.
A．is a bad doctor，unwilling to make a house call during the night－time
B．is so dissatisfied with his job that he wishes to find a new one
C．is satisfied with his job but he hates to be called out unnecessarily
D．thinks a doctor can enjoy certain special rights whether he felt lucky or not
45．We can conclude that________.
A．the author is worried about his patient when he is driving through the foggy streets of East London
B．the author is annoyed to be called out at such a horrible morning hour for an ear－ache patient
C．the author is now heading for the beach in southern France for his holidays
D．as the author speeds down Lea Bridge in the dark on a December morning，his Mini breaks down half way
课时作业答案
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．D　考查副词作连接词的用法。句意为：玛丽一到家就帮妈妈干家务。题干中的home前有her，说明它在此是名词，而A项中return须带to，B项中arriving须带at，C项中gets也须带to，才能接名词，而reach常用做及物动词，这时的instantly用做连词，相当于as soon as。
2．A　考查固定短语。句意为：这种啤酒不错，我开始爱喝了。acquire a taste for sth.＝begin to like sth.开始喜欢上某物。
3．C　考查名词辨析。句意为：大多数人说报酬是他们工作的主要动机。A注意力；B趋向；C动机；D兴奋。
4．A　考查短语动词辨析。句意为：在每一次测验中，有很多学生考不好在于他们的粗心。lie in “存在于”符合句意。B“收割，进入”；C“收养；理解；欺骗”均不合题意。
5．C　考查状语从句的连接词。分析句子结构可知：我们了解一些有关艾滋病的基本知识是保护自己不受感染的条件。故选so long as，意思是“只要……”。
6．D　考查独立主格结构。句中逗号说明它之前部分应是非谓语动词，排除C；A、B的逻辑主语不可能是the students，故也得排除。
7．D　考查状语从句的引导词，句意为：我的风筝线断了，风筝飞跑了。我告诉过你最弱的地方容易断。此空需要一个体现地点的词，where符合这一要点，其余三项均不表地点。
8．D　考查短语动词的辨析。句意为：他无意间泄露了他同他妻子吵架并且好长时间没回家了的事。A项“使……失望”；B项“让进入”；C项“原谅某人”；D项“泄露”。
9．C　考查动词辨析。句意为：历史老师常叫他的学生把学过的知识按章节进行分类整理。C项“将……分类”符合题意；其余A项“分开”；B项“分离，分手”；D项“收集，集中”，均不合题意。
10．C　考查让步状语从句的引导词。句意为：不论我们什么时候给他东西吃，他总要把它省下来给他小妹妹。该题易误选A，是因为没看出原句已有了gave的双宾语而造成的。
11．C　句意为：律师认为这个案例没有太大的意义。significant为形容词作表语，但应用副词来修饰，排除B项，且不用在be of短语中，又排除A项，significance为名词，可用be＋of＋名词句式。
12．D　考查由count组成的动词短语之间的辨析。句意为：我想我们可以指望怀特先生来支持我们。D项“依靠、指望”；其余A项“把……相加”，B项“倒计时”，C项“把……计算在内”均不合题意。
13．D　本题主要考查名词的意义及习惯搭配。on/at the tip of one’s tongue的意思是“在某人的嘴边”，暗指非常熟悉。
14．A　考查状语从句的省略。当主、从句的主语相同，且从句谓语动词是be的某种形式时，可以将从句的主语和be的形式省略。本题中的从句省略了“it is”。
15．C　句意为：他浏览了一下衣服，然后给我选了件最便宜的。choose “选择”侧重“凭个人判断”，普通用语；elect 选举；select 精选，侧重于“从同类的许多东西中，仔细辨别后选择”；pick out侧重按个人喜好进行挑选。
Ⅱ.句子翻译
16．I don’t like soap operas，in particular，the South Korea ones.
17．It is estimated that the big earthquake has caused 90,000 deaths in Sichuan.
18．In conclusion，I’d like to say how much I’ve enjoyed staying here.
19．After lunch we got down to discussing the problem.
20．我们与工人们商量后才能接受公司的条件。
Ⅲ.完形填空
21．D　由but(转折)和下文的shock可知。
22．A　从下句的in tears可知作者的母亲失业，在家中哭泣。
23．C　上文的shock和embarrassment均表明作者很少理解母亲所承受的压力。
24．B　我开始逐渐地、慢慢地理解母亲，而不是很快。
25．A　母亲在说，有时每个人都有失败的时候，与自己失业呼应。
26．C　我可以感觉到母亲的痛苦，而不是观察。
27．A　hold back阻止，控制；put away收起来；sit up坐起来；stop from阻止做某事。
28．C　自己内心发生变化，表示情感的变化过程。
29．D　against是介词，against my shoulder意思为“靠在我的肩膀上”。
30．B　tightly在此表示“紧紧地”，与held搭配。
31．A　连词and连接两个并列句。
32．D　因为是拥抱，所以摸着母亲的背部。
33．B　母亲很容易受到打击。
34．C　yet意为“而且，还”。A、B、D意思不符。
35．A　从下句可知。
36．D　与fear和failure并列，应选D。在此，hurt表示心理方面的伤害。
37．C　自己在母亲的怀抱中寻找安慰。
38．B　supply供应；offer提供；pay for付款；contribute贡献。
39．A　我有了与以前不一样的感觉。
40．B　tap away意为“敲打键盘”。
Ⅳ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】　本文是一位医生对于其职业的描述。作者以幽默诙谐的语言描述了医生的苦与乐。
41．C　句意理解题。根据上一句out of luck说明作者对于做医生的看法与别人不同，所以他说这句话的意思是想当医生的这些人脑子有问题。
42．C　细节判断题。虽然在第二段提到I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well，但是这与C项意义不同。43．D　句意理解题。该句的意思可以通过上一句Of course，being a doctor isn’t really all bad.和下文提到医生经常做的一些事情，这些都说明医生有时也感到他们职业的神圣和满足。
44．C　推理判断题。短文后半部分主要是说明当医生的好处，所以A项和B项意义与原文不符，D项在文中没有体现。从整篇短文看，前面否定，后面肯定，所以可以推断C项正确。
45．B　推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句得出B项正确。
