Question

Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They don’t listen because they already know it all.I was lucky：Ⅰ became a pilot in 1970，almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn’t realize then，but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger，faster planes，and in worse weather，I learned about crew resource management (機(jī)組資源管理)，or CRM，a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result，regardless of positions.

I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that，an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying；I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn，he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down.He was a better pilot－and my boss － so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to：Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said，“We need to put the landing gear down now！” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM，and I’ve used it in the operating room ever since.

CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite，the doctor doesn’t overreact，which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when I’m in the operating room，I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they’re not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them，someday someone will keep me from “landing_gear_up”．

Answer 1

【答案】

1.B

2.A

3.D

4.B

【解析】這是一篇記敘文。作者從自己的一次飛行經(jīng)歷中學(xué)會(huì)了一個(gè)道理，從而使自己成了一名更好的醫(yī)生。這個(gè)道理就是：一個(gè)人不論職位高低，為了所有人的安全，都要敢于表達(dá)自己的意見(jiàn)。

1.

2.2】解析：選A。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第五句話(huà)He was so busy because of the bad turn，he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down.及后面的Our lives were in danger.可知，如果不是作者及時(shí)提醒，飛機(jī)及機(jī)上人員都很危險(xiǎn)。所以選A。根據(jù)第二段第四句The attending doctor was flying；I was safety pilot.可知B項(xiàng)不對(duì)；根據(jù)第二段第三句The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.可知C項(xiàng)不對(duì)；根據(jù)第二段第六句可知他的上司正在駕駛飛機(jī)，所以D項(xiàng)不對(duì)。

3.3】解析：選D。詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后幾句So when I’m in the operating room...someday someone will keep me from “landing_gear_up”．(因此，當(dāng)我在手術(shù)室里的時(shí)候，我征求其他醫(yī)生的建議和幫助。有時(shí)他們不愿意發(fā)表意見(jiàn)。但是我希望如果我繼續(xù)鼓勵(lì)他們，有一天有人會(huì)阻止我“犯錯(cuò)誤”。)可知，答案應(yīng)選D。

4.4】解析：選B。主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章大意可知，作者通過(guò)一次飛行經(jīng)歷學(xué)會(huì)了一個(gè)道理，從而成了一名更好的醫(yī)生。所以選B。
