The afternoon on December 25 in the waiting room, I was the nurse on duty. When I felt sad

The afternoon on December 25 in the waiting room, I was the nurse on duty. When I felt sad about having to 1 on Christmas Day, a woman and four small children showed up at my desk.
“Are you all sick?” I asked. “Yes.” the woman said 2 and lowered her head. But when it came to telling me about their 3 , things got a little surprising. They all seemed to be well and there was nothing 4 with their body.
Why did they tell a 5 that they were all sick? I did not say anything but 6 that it might be a little time before a doctor could 7 them . The mother said, “Take your time. We can 8 here. It’s so warm.” When she finished the register chart, I noticed she didn’t write down their address----were they 9 ?
I looked at the 10 around the Christmas tree. The children were excited and 11 to be healthy. The littlest one was pointing at the Christmas tree and said something to the mother. Then I was sure that they came here not because of 12 but only for warmth.
I went back to the nurses’ station and 13 the homeless family. The nurses, 14 about working on Christmas Day like me, turned to feel sorry for the family and decided to 15 .We bought delicious food in the hospital restaurant and 16 a big dinner for our guests. We needed 17 . So we put apples in a basket and collected candies and clothes. Just as we were seriously prepared to meet the physical needs of the 18 , our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be 19 on Christmas Day.
Later, as the family was to 20 , the youngest child ran to me and said, “Thank you very much. Good bye. ”

(答案→)B 解析：文章讲述的是在圣诞节的一个下午，一个无家可归的一家人，为了御寒而谎称生病到医院里，被护士发现，并给她们提供了丰盛的一餐和礼物。【小题1】上下文。根据上文可知，这天是圣诞节，而作者因为还要值班 the nurse on duty，所以因为要工作而不高兴 I felt sad 。【小题2】句意理解。根据妇女的回答可知，她们都生病了，所以回答的时候是很虚弱地。【小题3】句意理解，因为他们说自己生病了，所以护士要问他们的问题，句意为当提到他们的问题（病情）时，他们看起来很好，身体好像没有什么问题。【小题4】同上 have something wrong with ……有毛病，有问题【小题5】上下文，此时护士发现他们并没有生病，所以断定他们撒谎了。【小题6】句意理解，根据后面护士说的话 it might be a little time before a doctor could see them可知，她在向他们解释，暂时医生不在，需要过一会医生才能来看他们（的病）【小题7】同上【小题8】上下文，因为护士说医生要过一会才能来，所以母亲说没关系，可以等。【小题9】上下文，根据she didn’t write down their address可知，他们没有家庭住址，所以是无家可归的。【小题10】上下文，此处护士看着母亲和她带着的四个孩子，即这一家人。【小题11】句意理解，孩子们很兴奋，看起来非常健康。【小题12】文章理解。此时护士发现他们到医院来不是为了看病，而是为了取暖。【小题13】文章理解，护士回到护士站，那里都是护士，所以是向别的护士提到了这件事情。Mention 提到 introduce介绍 report报道 greet问候【小题14】上下文，该护士跟作者一样也是因为在圣诞节上班而抱怨。【小题15】上下文，根据后文可知她们给这一家人买了好吃的和包了礼物，所以是决定去帮助他们。【小题16】因为护士们在上班，所以只能是给这一家人订购了一顿大餐。【小题17】上下文，根据So we put apples in a basket and collected candies and clothes可知，她们是在给这一家人准备圣诞礼物。【小题18】句意理解，正如她们认真准备满足病人的需要一样，【小题19】上下文，上文提到了他们一家到医院来就是为了取暖。【小题20】上下文，根据Thank you very much. Good bye可知，他们一家离开了。
