　　Ⅲ.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 am 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 earache 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. 31．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

　　32．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.

　　33．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

　　34．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 because he likes to be a doctor

　　Ⅳ.补全对话

　　根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。

　　M： I'd like a haircut， please.

　　W： Would you care for a shave and a shampoo as well？

　　M： No， thanks. A haircut will be just fine.

　　W： All right.__35__

　　M： Don't cut it too short on the sides and the back. Just a little.

　　W： __36__

　　M： You can thin the top out a little， but just a little.

　　W： No problem.

　　M： My hair is kind of oily， and dandruff(头皮屑)bothers me very much.__37__

　　W： __38__It's supposed to be good for the dandruff.

　　M： No. I've heard of it， but I haven't had a try.

　　W： And you can try Vidal Sassoon. It's used after you wash your hair.__39__

　　M： That's a good idea. Thank you.

　　W： It's done. That will be five dollars and thirty cents.

　　A．Have you tried Head and Shoulders？

　　B．You will know more about it once you use it.

　　C．It will keep your hair oil-free.

　　D．What hairstyle do you like？

　　E．Can you recommend me something effective？
