Question

At midnight Mr. King coughed again. He got up and took some medicine. Before he lay down again, he smoked. And he couldn’t go to sleep any longer. He found the medicine book and began to read it. He was afraid he had lung cancer. He seemed to see death was waiting for him. Tears(眼淚) ran down his face. He didn’t see his wife was standing by him.

“What’s wrong with you, dear?” asked the woman.

“Nothing,” the old man answered and covered his face with his hands.

The old woman opened the book and understood at once. She said, “You must stop smoking right now.”

“I began to smoke when I was nine, you know. How can’t I do that?”

“But I think health is more important.”

Mr. King coughed again and his wife said, “Go to see a doctor tomorrow. He will be able to help you, I think.”

The doctor told Mr. King to have an X-ray examination of his lungs. And then he looked at the X-ray carefully for a long time.

“Tell me the truth, doctor.”said Mr.King, “Do you see any shadows(陰影)in my lungs?”

“No, I don’t see anything.”

“Yes?” the old man said happily. “Really?”

“Yes. Your lungs are turning black. How can I see any shadows?”

試題分析：這篇短文中作者主要金先生因吸煙嚴重而導致咳嗽不止而不愿戒煙，在妻子的建議下去醫院檢查發現肺部傷害很嚴重了。

1.細節理解題。根據短文第一段第二句話He got up and took some medicine.可知，他起來是為了吃藥；故選D。

2.推理判斷題。根據短文第一段Before he lay down again, he smoked.及“You must stop smoking right now.”和“I began to smoke when I was nine, you know. How can’t I do that?”可知，他吸煙嚴重導致了健康下降，咳嗽厲害；故選C。

3.細節理解題。根據短文第一段He was afraid he had lung cancer. He seemed to see death was waiting for him. Tears(眼淚) ran down his face.可知由于擔心自己得了肺癌才傷心的流淚；故選A。

4.推理判斷題。根據短文第八段And then he looked at the X-ray carefully for a long time.可知，醫生讓他做X光檢查是為了確認他的肺部是否有問題；故選C。

5.判斷正誤題。根據短文最后一段Your lungs are turning black. How can I see any shadows?可知，他的肺部沒有陰影，而是變黑了，說明肺部傷害已經很嚴重了，肯定是由吸煙引起的，所以A錯誤，B正確；C項錯誤；而對于金先生是否立即決定戒煙短文當中是沒有提到的；所以D項錯誤；故選B。
