One Christmas Eve, I kissed my family goodbye and went to spend the night in the hospital where I worked in its emergency department (急诊部). It was a (36) job.
At 9 p.m., a man was brought in. He was having a heart attack and was (37) . I did my best to help him. Before I left in the morning, I stopped by to see (38) he was doing. He (39) the night and was sleeping.
Emergency doctors don’t have (40) relationships with patients like other doctors. We get the (41) sick and the wounded. Often they’re frightened or angry at us, just (42) we’re there. They pass through our hands and out the door. We (43) see them again, I thought (44) about my heart patient. The (45) year, I got Christmas Eve duty (46) and I pulled myself off to work. At 9 p.m. sharp, the nurse told me (47) in the hail wanted to speak with me.
The man introduced himself as Mr Lee and said," You probably don’t (48) me, but last Christmas Eve you (49) my life. Thank you for the (50) you gave me." He and his wife handed me a small gift and left.
The following year my family was (51) that I could stay home on Christmas Eve. But I wanted to see if the Lees would (52) . I came to work and kept an eye on the door. Once again, at (53) 9 p.m., they appeared, carrying their new grandchild.
Mr Lee, his family and I spent 13 Christmas Eves together. He died in 2005. The last time I saw him, he brought me a (54) imprinted (刻着) with a single word.. Friendship. Now my family and I ring it every Christmas Eve at 9 p.m. sharp to remember the man who didn’t (55) .
选项
A、boring
B、thankless
C、top
D、dangerous
答案
B
解析
考查形容词辨义和上下文理解。boring指“令人厌烦的”,thankless指“费力不讨好的”,top指“最高的,头等的”,dangerous指“危险的”。它们都能修饰job,故答题的关键就是理解上下文。通读短文,我们发现在第三段中作者说明了自己的工作性质,并且指出伤病员常常很害怕、对急诊室的医生感到气愤,这些都说明作者的工作应是一种thankless的工作,故选[B]。而其余三项在作者的行文中都没有体现。
