题目内容
5.阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要.What should doctors say,for example,to a 46-year-old man coming in for a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation with his family who,though he feels in perfect health,is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months?Is it best to tell him the truth?If he asks,should doctors reject that he is ill,or minimize the gravity of the illness?Should they at least hide the truth until after the family vacation?
Doctors face such choices often.At times,they see important reasons to lie for the patients'own sake.Should doctors ever lie to benefit their patients---to speed recovery or to cover the coming of death?
Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their condition,and that informing them of risks destroys their hope,so that they may recover more slowly,or deteriorate(恶化)faster,perhaps even commit suicide.
But other studies show that,contrary to the belief of many physicians,a great majority of patients do want to be told the truth,even about serious illness,and feel cheated when they learn that they have been misled.We are also learning that truthful information,humanely conveyed,helps patients cope with illness:help them tolerate pain better,need less medicine,and even recover faster after surgery.
Not only in medicine,but in other professions such as law and government as well,practitioners(从业者)may find themselves repeatedly in the dilemma of choosing between telling the true information and covering it up.Therefore,there is an urgent need to debate this issue openly.Otherwise,people in our society will be blindly comfortable in the old saying,"What you don't know can't hurt you."
Should a doctor lie to patients for their benefit?According to some studies,to avoid the risk of worsening their health condition,most doctors choose to hide the truth from the patient suffering from fatal illness.However,it has been found out most patients prefer to be told the truth,which,if imparted,will enable them to battle bravely with illness.In view of the similar dilemma repeated in other professions,this issue cries for an open debate..
分析 读写类书面表达是主要考查考生必须熟悉所读材料的整体结构与主旨大意,利用略读和检索阅读的方式寻求需求的信息,对文中信息进行有效筛选、整合和综合概括的能力.要求考生在阅读理解的基础上,对阅读信息进行二次理解、加工,归纳要点、整合零散信息,把加工后的信息准确有序的通过短文表达出来.首先,看清答题要求,尤其是"写作要求"后的具体要求,并在答题中一直自始至终贯彻其要求.
亮点句型一:According to some studies,to avoid the risk of worsening their health condition,most doctors choose to hide the truth from the patient suffering from fatal illness.据一些研究,为了避免恶化他们的健康状况的风险,大多数医生都选择隐瞒病人患致命疾病的真相.本句中动词不定式to avoid the risk of worsening their health condition在句中做目的状语; suffering from fatal illness.是现在分词在句中做定语"患有致命的疾病的病人".patient与suffer之间是主谓关系.
亮点句型二:However,it has been found out most patients prefer to be told the truth,which,if imparted,will enable them to battle bravely with illness.然而,已经发现大多数病人宁愿被告知真相,如果被告知,这将使他们能够勇敢地与疾病斗争.本句中 most patients prefer to be told the truth.是省略了that的宾语从句;which引导的是非限制性定语从句,which指代前边整个句子的意思.
解答 Should a doctor lie to patients for their benefit?According to some studies,to avoid the risk of worsening their health condition,most doctors choose to hide the truth from the patient suffering from fatal illness.(亮点句型一)However,it has been found out most patients prefer to be told the truth,which,if imparted,will enable them to battle bravely with illness.(亮点句型二)In view of the similar dilemma repeated in other professions,this issue cries for an open debate.
点评 英语写作是一项主观性较强的测试题.它不仅考查学生的写作基础而且还考查学生在写作过程中综合运用语言的能力.在撰写时要注意主谓语一致,时态呼应,用词贴切等.要提高英语写作水平,需要两方面的训练:一是语言基础方面的训练,要有扎实的造句、翻译等基本功,即用词法、句法等知识造出正确无误的句子;二是写作知识和能力 方面的训练以掌握写作方面的基本方法和技巧.
