She began studying medical reports in the library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart surgeon, Dr. Michael DeBakey, of Houston, Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same disease. The article said his fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fees she could pay?So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four more years, her little-girl dream of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity----only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer.A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in; she stood in thehall and read aloud:Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply.

本题问“Ed ith姑妈______当她听说自己患上了严重的心脏病。

”中心词是“a very serious heart disease”。

答案在第二段的第一句，该句大意是“Edith姑妈不会轻易言败”。

据此，可知答案是B（她没有失去希望）。

A的意思是“不做秘书了”，C的意思是“呆在医院里”，D的意思是“向很多医生求助”。

[2]C.细节题。

题目问“从故事中，我们可以看出________。

”但是题干信息不足，所以我们还得浏览四个选项。

A的意思是“Michael DeBakey医生一点都没有名。

”B的意思是“Edith姑妈可以负担得起Michael DeBakey医生的医治费用。

”C的意思是“Michael DeBakey医生处理Edith姑妈的这种病特别有经验。

”D的意思是“Edith姑妈轻易言败。

”从上面第2题的解释中我们可知D是错误的。

而A、B、C三个句子中心词都有“Dr. MichaelDeBakey”。

经过定位，答案在第二段。

该段大意是“Edith姑妈不轻易言败。

她开始在图书馆研读医学报告，在一份杂志上读到一篇文章，该文章讲到了德州休斯顿的一位著名的心外科医生，Michael DeBakey。

这位医生挽救了一位和Edith姑妈一种病症的病人。

文章还说这名医生的治疗费用很高。

Edith姑妈根本负担不起这样的费用。

但是，这位医生是否能给她推荐一位她能承担得起费用的医生呢？“据此，可知答案是C。

[3]A.细节题。

本题问“在Edith姑妈给医生写的信中，_______。

”中心词是“letter”，答案在第三段。

该段大意是“所以，Edith姑妈就写信给了DeBakey医生。

信中她仅仅列举了几条她想活下去的原因：她有三个孩子，再过三、四年这些孩子就能自立了；她小时候的梦想，梦想着周游世界。

信中没有一丝的自我可怜，而是洋溢着热心、幽默和生活的快乐。

她寄出了这封信，也没有期待对方能真的回应。

”据此，可知答案是A（她展示出自己是热心、幽默和享受生活的）。

B的意思是“她没有提到孩子”，C的意思是“她展示自己是悲伤的”，D的意思是“她说自己有个梦想周游世界的小姑娘”。

[4]D.细节题。

本题问“当Edith姑妈寄出信件的时候，_______。

”根据上题的解释，我们知道答案应该是D（她并没有期待那个医生能够给她回应）。

A的意思是“她决心要感动那个医生”，B的意思是“她期待奇迹会发生”，C的意思是“她知道信件不会到医生的手里”。
