Question

Once Dr.Mellinkoff invited me to join him at the hospital to discuss interesting cases with his  students．The case at hand was a Guatemalan man, aged 34, who had a fever and many other medical problems．His condition was not improving, and there was not much hope he would live．
Dr.Mellinkoff asked to see the patient．He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he felt．The patient smiled and said everything was all right．Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat．The patient said that he had no desire to eat．
"Are you getting food you like?"
The patient said nothing．
"Do you get the kind of food you have at home?"
The answer was no．
The doctor put his hand on the man’s shoulder and his voice was very soft．
"If; you had food that you liked, would you eat it?"
"Yes, yes," the patient said．
The change in the patient’s appearance couldn’t have been more obvious．Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and! had also been received．
Later, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasn’t getting food he could eat．One of the students said, "We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals．"
"Suppose," the doctor replied, "you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didn’t carry it, would you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?"
"I would probably insist," the student said．
"Very well," the doctor said．"You might want to try the same method in the kitchen．It won’t be easy, but I can help you．Meanwhile, let’s get some food inside this man as fast as possible, and stay with it．Or he’ll be killed by hunger．By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish．If we want to make real progress, we need to be able to talk with him．"
Three weeks later, Doctor Mellinkoff told me that the Guatemalan man had left the hospital under his own power．It takes more than medicine to help sick people; you also have to talk to them and make them comfortable．

Answer 1

小題1:D
小題1:A
小題1:B
小題1:B

Dr．Mellinkoff用一個真實的病例告訴他的學(xué)生：作為一名醫(yī)生，要深入了解病人的病因，除了給他們以藥物治療外，還要和他們多交談，了解他們所需，讓他們心情舒暢。
小題1:D推理判斷題。根據(jù)Dr．Mellinkoff和病人的對話可知，當(dāng)問他有沒有喜歡吃的東西時。他說沒有，而當(dāng)問他如果有他喜歡吃的東西，他吃不吃時，他說了兩個”yes”。
小題1:A推理判斷題。第二段第二句話告訴我們：Dr．Mellinkoff用西班牙語和那個病人交流；另外，倒數(shù)第二段中Dr．Mellinkoff要求會說西班牙語的學(xué)生去和那個病人交流。由此可推知A項正確。
小題1:B推理判斷題。通讀全義可知，Dr．Mellinkoff是一個很體貼的(considerate)人。他和病人談話后得知，病人不喜歡吃醫(yī)院里的飯菜，于是他便要求學(xué)生想法去廚房給病人做他喜歡吃的食物；倒數(shù)第二段中，他安排會講西班牙語的學(xué)   生和病人溝通，以了解他的需要；文章最后一句話中他的觀點——不僅僅要用藥物給病人治病，還要和他們溝通，以讓他們感到舒服，這些都表明Dr．Mellinkoff是一·個體貼的人。
小題1:B推理判斷題。Dr．Mellinkoff和那位本來好像已經(jīng)是”病入膏肓”的病人淡話后發(fā)現(xiàn)，其實他身體沒有什么大問題，只是無法吃下醫(yī)院的飯菜，對他”對癥下藥”之后三周后這個病人便康復(fù)出院。他通過這個病例顯然是為了告訴他的學(xué)生們，要了解病人的真正問題。
