     "How lucky you are to be a doctor…" Anyone who"s a doctor is right out of luck,  I thought.
Anyone_who"s_studying_medicine_should_have_his_head_examined.
     You may think I want to change my job. Well,  at the moment I do. As one of my friends says-even
doctors have a few friends-it"s all experience. Experience! I don"t need such experience. I need a
warm, comfortable and undisturbed bed all my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown
down the nearest well. That"s what I need.
     All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车) through the foggy streets of
East London at 3:45 am on a December morning. I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat
and a bag of medicines. As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour, the heater
first blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel. I
wish I were on the beach in southern France. Call me a bad doctor if you like. Call me what you will.
But don"t call me at half past three on a December morning for an earache that you have had for two
weeks.
     Of course,  being a doctor isn"t really all bad. We_do_have_our_moments. Once in a while people
are ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you are given a cup of tea and rockhard cake at
two o"clock in the morning-then you worry if you have done everything. But all too often "everything" is
a repetitious rule: look,  listen, feel, tap, pills, injection,  phone, ambulance and away to the next.
     And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed
service who will get your patient into hospital for you-the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand
in the cold, dark, smelly and dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town. Oh,  it has
its moments, and this life does.

     Teen Dating can be fun if you are aware(知道)of its pros and cons and are also aware of the ways
to protect yourself. There are a couple of suggestions you would like to know before you are out for
dating.
     Do not go out for dating with somebody whom you have seen only a few times and does not know
much about him or her.
     Before leaving on a date,know the exact plans for the evening and make sure a parent or friend
knows these plans and what time to expect you home. Let your date know that you are  expected to
call or tell that person when you get in.
     Similarly, if you leave a party with someone you do not know well,make sure you tell another person
you are leaving and with whom. Ask a friend to call and make sure you arrive home safely.
     No matter how good the person appears to you,trust your inner instincts(直感). If a situation makes
you uncomfortable,try to stay calm and think of a way to remove yourself from the  situation without
letting your date realize what is going on in your mind.
     Always stay firm,straightforward and clear in your relationships,thoughts,decisions and judgments.
Never let a doubt come to your mind or face when out for dating. If you are firm and  clear in your
communication,your date will always be careful in dealing with you.
     You should think ahead about ways to be safe if you are in a dangerous or potentially(潜在)

     There has been an outpouring of love for a 23yearold disabled woman whose dog was killed in front
of her while a groomer(美容师)tried to trim(修剪)its claws.
     Calls and emails came from as far away as the Upper Peninsula and Arizona as well as Oakland and
Macomb counties, offering Laurie Crouch, who uses a wheelchair because of multiple sclerosis(硬化症), everything from dogs to money, such as that from Jason Daly of Roseville who said, "I would like
to buy her a new dog."
     A story about the death of Crouch"s pet, Gooch, was printed on the front page of Macomb Daily.
Crouch said a groomer tied Gooch up with a collar, and then she and a man sat on the dog to trim its
nails. Gooch died after one claw was trimmed.
     Crouch yelled at the groomer to stop when she saw Gooch was struggling to breathe, but she said
she was ignored. "If I could have walked, I would have put my hands on her and pulled her off my dog
and physically stopped her, but I can"t do that." Gooch was not a trained service animal, but naturally
helped Crouch by picking up things for her.
     "This case is absolute animal abuse(虐待)," Larry Obrecht, division manager of the Oakland County
Animal Shelter in Auburn Hills, said.
       People who read the story contacted Oakland Press to offer help. A message,  from Rebecca
Amett of Giggles N Wiggles Puppy Rescue in Roseville, said, "We have puppies to donate…and want
to help the young woman who lost her service dog."
     "When Gooch was with me I was happy," Crouch said, "I think I can be happy again but no animal
can replace Gooch. There"s never going to be another Gooch out there but I think I will find a dog that
can bring me joy again."

     Your twelve thousand "Smart" watches were received by our company this morning. However,
we wish to make a number of complaints concerning the serious delay in delivery and your failure to
carry out our instructions regard to this order.
     It was firmly pointed out from the beginning that the delivery date had to be less than six weeks
from the original order in order to satisfy our own customers" requirements. While we understand tha
t delays in production are occasionally unavoidable, we must point out that the major reason why the
order was placed with your company was that we were assured by you of its simplicity, and that your
existing stocks were sufficiently high to ensure immediate shipment. Late delivery of the goods has
caused us to disappoint several of our most valued customers, and will have an unfavorable effect on
future orders.
     The second complaint concerns the difference in colour between the watches we ordered and those
delivered. It was stated clearly in the order that watches in combinations of green/purple and orange/
purple only were required. However, only half the watches in the delivery received are of the colours
specified. Our Hong Kong agent informed you of the importance of following our instructions exactly,
since we consider there to be only a limited market in this country for watches of other colors at the
present time. Any watches that are not of the specified colours will, of course, be returned to you.
     We are also somewhat concerned about the rather poor quality of the goods received, since it is
obvious that the watches that finally arrived have been made from not good enough materials and have
been produced to a lower standard than those in the sample. We have also found that a number of the
watches do not appear to be working. Whether the latter problem is due to poor production, or damage
in transportation is not yet clear, but we should like to point out that we feel this matter to be entirely
your fault.
     As a result of the above problems, therefore, we feel that the most suitable course of action is to
return to you unpaid any of the goods considered unsatisfactory. We shall also, of course, be forced
to reconsider whether any further orders should be placed with your company.
     We look forward to your early reply.
                                                                                                                       Yours sincerely,
                                                                                                                              John Smith
1. The producers of "Smart" watches were given the order because they promised_______.
A. the designs were already prepared
B. there was enough space for shipment
C. they could produce enough watches quickly
D. they had enough ready-made watches to ship
2. The last sentence of paragraph 5 "We shall also, of course, be forced to …with your company"
suggests that _______.
A. the company may stop trading with the watch manufacturers.
B. the company will probably reduce the number of watches to be ordered in the future.
C. the writer is afraid their company might go out of business soon.
D. the company is probably willing to give the manufacturers another chance

A. firm but polite              
B. angry and impolite
C. reasonable but impolite      
D. regretful and polite
