The nurse had him take a 2in the waiting area, 3him it would be at least 40 minutes4someone would be able to see him. I saw him5his watch and decided, since I was6busy — my patient didn’t7at the appointed hour, I would examine his wound. While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor’s appointment.
The gentleman said no and told me that he8to go to the nursing home to have breakfast with his9. He told me that she had been10for a while and that she had a special disease. I asked if she would be11if he was a bit late. He replied that she12knew who he was, and that she had not been able to13him for five years now. I was14, and asked him, “And you15go every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are?”
He smiled and said, “She doesn’t know me, but I know who she is.” I had to hold back16as he left.

Answer 1

BCDBC DAABD BCACD BAABD
1.B.根据下文知道是去医院hospital。
2.C. 关键名词就在后面waiting room。这个词break有可能选，但是break之前一定要很紧张才行，这里老汉没有紧张。
3.D. 护士对一个老汉能做的动作，最符合逻辑的是telling，告诉。 promising 表示许诺，有可能选，再看宾语就可以排除，at least 40 minutes 没有一个承诺是这样子的，我保证你至少要等四十分钟，不是承诺这是诅咒。
4.B. 在医生诊断他之前before要等待。
5.C. 看动作的发出者，一个焦急的老汉会做的动作，肯定是look at 看手表这个选项。
6.D. not
7.A. 词组，表示“出现”的意思。这里要注意破折号表示解释说明，我不是很忙，因为我的病人在appointed hour 里面没有出现。appoint 这个词除了任命的意思，还有约时间的意思。B. show off 是“炫耀”的意思。
8.A考察动词搭配，用排除法。B forget是“忘记”，他忘记了回去吃饭这样的事情，不算一个appointment。C agree to do是“同意做某件事情”，在文中没人提要求，所以不存在同意不同意。D happen to do“碰巧做某事”。
9.B名词找重复，这里重复再后面，刚做的时候放一放，第五段的第一句出现了marriage,表示他们俩曾经有一段，那么选老婆这个选项。
10.D  she had been there 表示的是她已经在那个nursing home 里面有一段时间了，有难度，其他几个选项的中文意思比较模棱两可， A. late 要迟到的是老头子，不是他老婆。 B. well 她老婆身体很健康。 C.老婆曾经在他身边。
11.B. 根据词义辨析。lonely“孤独的”，worried 是“焦虑的，担心的”的意思，doubtful“怀疑的”，hungry“饥饿的”。
12.C. 结合后文，49空那句话给出了很好的对应。neither 表示否定2者。
13.A. 之前见过，现在认不出来。
14.C. 表示惊讶。选项moved干扰度比较大，需要对全文的态度进行把握，文中进行到这里并没有很明显的作者的正面态度出现，证据就在于他的那个问句：你知道她不认识你，还是每天早上要去陪她？这句话显然不是一个正面态度的体现，而真正的态度转正的地方在倒数第二段，他忍住泪水，所以这里不能选moved这个表示正面态度的词语。
15. D. 表示状态的持续，B. then 表示时间先后，C. thus 表示因果。
16. B. 关键在前面的动词hold back忍住，忍回去。忍回去的只有泪水。
17.A. realize表示主观意识到。
18. A. 这个词的意思是必要地，这句话的意思是最幸福的人并不一定是一个拥有所有最好东西的人。
19.B. 考查动词和名词的搭配， make the best of充分利用，就是说他们可以没有最好的东西，但是他们充分利用了他们所拥有的东西。C选项favor 不能选，因为表示的意思是偏好，在这里没有比较爱人认得你还是不认得你，所以不选。
20.D. 生活并不是要经历暴风雨，而是要学会苦中作乐。
