The Making of a SurgeonHow does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a “surgeon”? As my year as chief resident(进修医生) drew to a close, I asked myself this question 1 more than one occasion.The answer, I concluded, was 2 . When you can say to yourself, “There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently, treat just 3 or better than any other surgeon” —then, and not until then, you are 4 a surgeon. I was 5 that point.6 , for example, the emergency situations that we met almost every night. The first few months of the year I had7 the ringing of the telephone. I knew it meant another critical decision to be8 . Often, after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular9 , I’d have trouble getting back to sleep. I’d 10 all the facts of the case and, often, wonder 11 I had made a poor decision. More than once at two or three in the 12 , after lying awake for an hour, I’d get out of13 , dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself. It was the only 14I could find the 15 of mind I needed to relax.Now, in the last month of my residency, 16 was no longer a problem. Sometimes I still couldn’t be sure of my decision, but I had learned to 17 this as a constant problem for a surgeon. I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I’d made was bound to be a 18 one. It was a nice feeling.This all sounds conceited(自负的) and I guess it is —19 a surgeon needs conceit. He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he’s bothered by the 20 and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine. He has to feel that he’s as good as and probably bet ter than any other surgeon in the world. Call it conceit — call it self-confidence; whatever it was, I had it.1. A. at B. in C. on D. for2.

He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-agency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.Every day he opened his shop at 6:00 a. m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his doorstep before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven shar p Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the afternoon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his neatest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometimes in the afternoon-, the even ing paper landed on the doorway, and at 4 o’ clock Bill reopened his shop. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.He lived in a flat above the ship, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the afternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was astonished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the, water. He had no luck, I could, see, but he was making no effort to move.“What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire engine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, "Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right. "I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.5. Bill Javis became a news-agent when ________.A. he need the money.B. he decided to take things easyC. he was quite an old manD. he gave up clock-repairing6. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because ________.A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to workB. the shop had to be open when the morning papers cameC. he was never sure of timeD. it was then that he did a lot of business7. On that sunny afternoon, the writer was surprised when he saw Bill because ________.A. he thought it was late for Bill to be still fishingB. he thought Bill was ill, since he was not moving at allC. Bill had not caught anything, and that seemed strangeD. Bill stayed in his flat8. From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?A. The bell was; it must have gone off at the wrong time.B. Bill was; he had dropped off to sleep.C. The writer’s watch was fast.D. Bill’s clock was wrong; it was old.5. C 推断题。
