They even opened their training manuals for my review and invited me back on Saturday if I wanted more information.On Sunday, the day after my second visit to the Saturn store, my wife, Jane, and I were walking as we frequently do. On

22、 this particular June morning, Jane gently slipped her hand in mine and said tenderly, I dont know if you remember, but todays my fifth anniversary of being cancer-free. I was surprised, partially because I was embarrassed that I had forgotten and, partially because. Well, I didnt know what to do wi

23、th Janes information.The next day, Monday, Jane went off to work teaching school.

25、 Wednesday at 4:30 because they were selling so fast. I said Id take my chances and asked him to put it in the showroom.Wednesday came.

26、d never been in a Saturn store. When we went through the front door, the Lord took control of her feet and her mouth. She saw that little white Saturn coupe all the way across the showroom floor.

27、 a pretty little car. Can I have a new car? I said, No. Not until our son graduates from college. She said, Im sick and tired of driving that old Dodge, I want a new car. I said, I promise, just three more semesters and hell be out.Next, Jane walked around to the front of the car. As she looked it o

28、ver, she let out the most blood-curdling, shrill scream Id ever heard in 29 years of marriage.Now, before I tell you why Jane screamed, let me tell you what the sales consultant had done. He had ordered a large, professionally engraved sign (white letters on blue). The sign stood alone on the hood o

29、f the little white Saturn coupe. It said Congratulations, Jane. This car is yours. Five years cancer-free. Lets celebrate life. From Team Saturn Every employee at Saturn of Albuquerque had signed the back of that sign.Jane saw it, screamed, collapsed in my arms and cried loudly. I didnt know what to

30、 do. I was in tears. I took out my invoice (发票) from the previous Monday, pointing to the white coupe, said, No, honey, this car isnt yours. I bought you this one. I tapped the invoice with my index finger. Jane said, No, I want this one right here.While this conversation was going on, there was no

31、one in the store. The sales consultant had arranged it so that we could share the moment alone. Even so, its impossible to have a lot of privacy when so many people are standing outside the showroom windows looking in. When Jane screamed and collapsed in my arms, I saw everybody outside applaud and

37、 medical training, yet I knew very little about her, except that she was thin, perhaps in her mid 70s. It might seem rather negligent not to know the basic facts of my patient, but I had a valid reasonMrs. Jones was dead, and had been dead for about three years before I made a patient of her. Mrs. J

38、ones was the dead body that I dissected（解剖）over the first two years of my medical training.Of course, her name wasnt really Mrs. Jones, but it seemed a little impolite to be conducting research into someones body without even knowing its name, so out of courtesy, I thought she should have one. “Me a

39、nd Mrs. Jones, weve got a thing going on,” went the song coming out of the radio as I unzipped the bag of her on my first day and so she was christened.As the months passed, I soon forgot that Mrs. Jones had, in fact, once been alive. One day, though, she suddenly became very human again. Id been di

After Id removed it, the professor came up to me, “If you look at the opening carefully, youll see that the angle indicates that this woman has had several children, probably three.” I stared at it, and I suddenly felt very

41、strange. This woman, who had given me something incredibly precious that Id begun to take for granted, wasnt a dead body. She was a person, a mother, in fact.At my graduation, the same professor came over to congratulate me. I explained the story about Mrs. Jones to him, and recalled what hed told m

42、e about her having children and how that had affected me all those years ago.“Well,” he said, “at the beginning of your training you had a dead body and managed to turn it into a person. Now youre a doctor, the trick is to have a person and not turn them into a dead body,” and he laughed, shook my h

46、ity.24（8分） The other day I was shopping at the local Chinese grocery storeThere was a line at the fish counter，but only one staff person was there to take care of the customers Some customers ordered quite an amount of fish for that staff person to work on At last I was the second in line；all I want

53、is feeling25（10分）Theres something about the New Year that always makes me read my horoscope (星象) to see what lies ahead. I dont believe in any of it really but theres comfort in being told that the next 12 months will bring health, wealth and happiness. Well, its usually over optimistic, isnt it?The

As a reward Buddha named a year after each o
