The Making of a Surgeon

　　How does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a “surgeon”? As my year as chief resident(进修医生) drew to a close, I asked myself this question    36   more than one occasion.

　　The answer, I concluded, was   37   . When you can say to yourself,  “There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently, treat just   38   or better than any other surgeon” — then, and not until then, you are   39   a surgeon. I was   40    that point.

  41  , for example, the emergency situations that we met almost every night. The first few months of the year I had   42    the ringing of the telephone. I knew it meant another critical decision to be   43   . Often, after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular       44  , I’d have trouble getting back to sleep. I’d   45   all the facts of the case and, often, wonder   46    I had made a poor decision. More than once at two or three in the   47  , after lying awake for an hour, I’d get out of   48  , dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself. It was the only   49   I could find the   50    of mind I needed to relax.

　　Now, in the last month of my residency,   51    was no longer a problem. Sometimes I still couldn’t be sure of my decision, but I had learned to   52    this as a constant problem for a surgeon. I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I’d made was bound to be a   53    one. It was a nice feeling.

This all sounds conceited(自负的) and I guess it is —   54     a surgeon needs conceit. He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he’s bothered by the   55    and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine. He has to feel that he’s as good as and probably better than any other surgeon in the world. Call it conceit — call it self-confidence; whatever it was, I had it.

A
I was in a terrible mood. Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride, today, Beck? It’s a beautiful day.” ks5*u
“No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.
My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”.
When I reached the hospital, my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved Daddy, there’s no telling what might have happened. A broken rib（肋骨）might have pierced（穿透）a lung...”
My mother may have said more, but I didn’t hear. I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?
It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him.
“Daddy… I am so sorry…”
“It’s okay, sweetheart. I’ll be okay. ”
“No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day. You know, that morning?”
My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly. He looked at me and said. “Sweetheart, I don’t remember anything about that day, not before, during or after the accident. I remember kissing you goodnight the night before, though. ”He managed a weak smile.
My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power. They can hurt or they can heal. And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on.

A．Because he didn’t go along with his father.

When I was a boy, every holiday that I had seemed wonderful. My   36  took me by train or by car to a hotel by the   37 . All day, I seem to remember, I   38  on the sands with strange   39  children. We made houses and gardens, and   40  the tide destroy them. When the tide went out, we   41  over the rocks and looked down at the fish in the rock-pools.
In those days the   42  seemed to shine always brightly   43  the water was always warm. Sometimes we  44  beach and walked in the country, exploring(搜寻) ruined houses and dark woods and climbing trees. There were   45  in one’s pockets or good places where one could   46  ice creams. Each day seemed a life-time.
Although I am now thirty-five years old, my idea of a good   47  is much the same as it was. I   48  like the sun and warm sand and the sound of   49  beating the rocks. I no longer wish to   50  any sand house or sand garden, and I dislike sweets.   51 , I love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers.
Sometimes I   52  what my ideal(理想的) holiday will be like when I am   53 . All I want to do then, perhaps, will be to lie in bed, reading books about   54  who make houses and gardens with sands, who watch the incoming tide, who make themselves   55  on too many ices creams.
