分析 文章大意:
本文是發生在一個醫生身上的趣事.有一天,一個男人深夜來敲門,請求醫生送他出城,醫生以為是有病人,所以毫不猶豫的送他出城.可是最后醫生發現根本就沒有病人,他只是想讓自己送他回家.
解答 16.A,細節理解題,文中提到"He had to get up,put on his coat and go downstairs"門鈴響時,醫生不得不起床,穿上衣服并下樓,由此可知電鈴響時他在樓上睡覺,由此確定選擇A.
17.D,細節理解題,文中提到"Can you come at once to a place out of town"你能立刻去城外嗎?由此可知選擇D.
18.B,細節理解題,文中提到"the man got into the doctor's car,and they drove off"男人上了醫生的車,開向了城外,由此確定他們是開車出城的,選擇B.
19.D,細節理解題,文中提到講述的是醫生開車載他回家,前文提到男子要求醫生出門的時候,醫生說"I'm quite ready.I can come at once我準備好了,隨時可以走,由此確定醫生已經習慣了出診這件事,由此確定此處短語的意思是出診,選擇D.
20.C,細節理解題,文中提到"How can I go back without seeing the patient?Where is the patient?"醫生說病人在哪?我必須見到病人,由此可知醫生是希望給病人治病,而不是當一個出租車司機送男人回家,所以應該是很不滿意,由此推測選擇C.
