Connecting with Patients

       Dr. Paris often treats several generations of a family over many years. “He’s seen us through two births, one operation, multiple earaches, a broken wrist and a recovery from a serious traffic crash,” says Jill Farrow, a 43-year-old lawyer whose first visit to Dr. Paris was as a teenager. During the birth of her younger son, Farrow began bleeding badly. Dr. Paris managed to solve the problem in a delicate procedure. “Twenty years ago, she probably would have died,” he says. Today, when he performs school sports physical examinations for the Farrow boys, 10 and 11, he is always reminded that lives are changed forever by doctors just doing their jobs.

       To be a mix of country doc and somewhat adventurer, the 55-year-old family physician moved to Hailey after completing his residency(醫(yī)生實習(xí)期). He hoped to practice medicine there and ski at nearby Sun Valley. Unfortunately, the only job opening was for an emergency-room doctor in Missoula, Montana, 300 miles away. Dr. Paris took it. "I'd ski all day and then drive all night to be in Missoula for a 48-hour shift," he recalls. "I'm lucky to be alive." Knowing he couldn't keep up with his eight-hour commute(通勤), he began taking flying lessons.

In 1981, Dr. Paris joined a small medical practice in Hailey, a former mining town with a population at the time of 2,109. As Hailey grew in the shadow of Sun Valley's booming popularity, Dr. Paris's own practice expanded to seven physicians, including his wife, Kathryn Woods, who is also a family doctor. They met in 1986 at a certification exam in Denver when, in a room full of men in stodgy suits, Woods arrived wearing a Lycra biking outfit and carrying the front wheel of her bicycle (which she couldn't lock up outside). Dr. Paris asked her out on the spot. In 1989, they married.

What Jill Farrow says is to indicate ________.

       A. how weak the bodies of her family 

B. how hard it is to be a doctor

       C. how brilliant the physician’s skill is 

D. how easy it is to deal with such problems

Dr. Paris often reminds himself that ________.

       A. lives of people should not always stay the same

       B. people can rely on themselves to change their life

       C. doctors should change their own life

       D. it is the duty of a doctor to heal the patients

Why did Dr. Paris move to Hailey?

       A. Because he can be a doctor and an adventurer there.

B. Because he has to finish his residency there.   

       C. Because his children are fond of skiing at nearby Sun Valley.

       D. Because he has to be an emergency-room doctor there.

We can infer the doctor got married probably at the age of ________.

       A. 27.                   B. 37.                   C. 17.                          D. 47.

This passage is intended to ________.

       A. introduce Dr. Paris   

B. praise the doctor’s excellent medical art

       C. describe the doctor’s adventurous experience  

D. tell the doctor’s love affairs

I have to admit: I don’t flush(沖) the toilet every time I go to the bathroom. In fact, I firmly believe “If it’s yellow, let it mellow; if it’s brown, flush it down.”
I’m sure a lot of it has to do with the fact that I work at home. Alone (well, except for the cats and dog). All day. And I drink a lot of water, which makes for many trips to the bathroom.
Another thing I have to admit: I also try to use very little toilet paper. I wash my hands after, though. Every time. (So maybe the water I don’t use flushing makes up for the water used to wash my hands?)
Ironically, my husband, who only uses toilet paper when necessary, always flushes. But he doesn’t seem to mind that I don’t flush every time. Or, at least not enough to file for divorce. Yet.

When I’m at home alone I do not flush every time I pee(小便).  My husband hates that, though, so when he’s home, I flush a little more often.  I grew up doing that because I had a family that lived with huge tanks and you have to do it that way because it’s easier on the system, so it doesn’t bother me.  I do flush when I’m out in public, at people’s houses that don’t have big tanks and when we have company!

Not always. But I have 4 children who are always hanging from the door knob(球形捏手) while I pee anyway. So I’m lucky I have time to wash my hands after. The average toilet uses 8 gallons of water per flush! Much less than what it takes to wash my hands after. (just saying)
