As a boy，Tim was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor 小题1: a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic of a local doctor 小题2: he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles, but was actually trying 小题3: (listen) to the conversations 小题4: (take place) between the doctor and his patients in the next room.
During the war Tim served in the Navy as a surgeon（外科医生）.“That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with very real suffering and 小题5: the whole making a success of it .”In California he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He 小题6: (prove) his skills to himself and his ability to take decisions. Thus, while he was able to tell them what to do, he could feel he was serving them. After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside, working under an old doctor who was popular in the area, 小题7: who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the younger man many opportunities to go on 小题8: (work) working as a life –saver. |

解析
试题分析：文章介绍了Sanders从学医到战争中为国家服务，战争后还继续为国家服务的故事。
小题1:到15岁的时候，他决定当医生而不是水手。而不是：Rather than
小题2:考查定语从句：先行词是the clinic of a local doctor ，定语从句中缺少地点状语，用where
小题3:他实际上是想听这些对话。Try to do sth，填to listen
小题4:taking place是现在分词做定语，修饰conversations
小题5:on the whole总的来说
小题6:他证明了自己的能力。Prove这个动作发生在He saw himself as a life-saver.之前，所以用过去完成时： had proved
小题7:这个医生在当地很受欢迎，但是害怕看见血，表示转折关系：but
小题8:这给了这个年轻人机会继续救人。Go on doing继续做, 填working |
举一反三
An American novelist Jonathan Franzen tells readers that he appreciated real, printed newspapers more “as the Internet rose to power, disseminating information that could be trusted as little as it cost to read it.”
That’s 小题1: turn of phrase that we could apply to the discussion of Internet rumors(谣言)and their impact: this kind of information can 小题2: (trust) as little as it costs to read it. That is, we can’t trust it at all. Franzen may be overstating the case to make a point. There are, after all, plenty of ways that the Internet has provided access to information that is trustworthy and accurate, not to mention helpful. The problem is 小题3: the Internet also has flooded our lives with less accurate and less trustworthy material.
“Digital literacy”is the name for this 21st century skill, and it is becoming as fundamentally important as literacy itself. So 小题4: do we tell the real from the false?
Like anything, it takes practice at asking questions and, above all, paying attention to details 小题5: (give) already. Who is the author? Do you know a real name or just a username(用户名)?Why 小题6: you trust this person? Does he or she provide some credentials (证明)? There are big differences in the domains, and it is important to understand 小题7: .
It was 小题8: (easy) to tell a trustworthy source in the days before the Internet. Then, we all knew which newspapers had the highest standards and which ones were more for sensation and entertainment than for real news and commentary. |
