Question

閱讀下面的短文，從每題所給A、B、C三個選項中選擇最佳答案。

One day when he was crossing the road, Tom was hit by a car. He fell down and broke his arm.

An ambulance（救護車）soon arrived and took Tom to a hospital. A doctor operated on（動手術）his arm and put the arm in a plaster cast（上石膏）. Tom could not move it at all.

“You must keep your arm in a cast for six weeks.” the doctor said, “That would give the broken arm a chance to heal（愈合）.”

At the end of the six weeks, Tom went back to the hospital. The doctor cut the cast with a large saw（鋸）and took the arm out of the cast.

“Can you move your arm, Tom?” he asked.

Tom tried to move his arm. At first it was difficult, but soon he was able to move it a little.

“Yes, it’s fine.” he said, “Thank you very much, doctor.”

“In a few days it will be as good as usual.” the doctor said, “Just exercise it a little.”

“Will I be able to play the piano?”Tom asked.

The doctor smiled. “Of course, you will.” he said, “You’ll have no problem.” “That is good news.” Tom said, “Because I couldn’t play it at all before.”
