“How lucky you are to be a doctor…” Anyone who’s a doctor is right out of luck, I thought. Anyone who’s studying medicine should have his head examined.
You may think I want to change my job. Well, at the moment I do. As one of my friends says-even doctors have a few friends-it’s all experience. Experience! I don’t need such experience. I need a warm, fortable, undisturbed bed of my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well, that’s what I need.
All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East London at 3:45 a.m. on a December morning. I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and a bag of medicines. As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour, the heater first blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car-seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel. I wish I were on the beach in southern France. Call me a bad doctor if you like. Call me what you will. But don’t call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear-ache that you have had for two weeks.
Of course, being a doctor isn’t really all bad. We do have our moments. Once in a while people are ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you get given a cup of tea and rock-hard cake at two o’clock in the morning-then you worry if you have done everything. But all too often ‘everything’ is a repetitious rule: look, listen, feel, tap, pills, injection, phone, ambulance, away to the next.
And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you-the pleasant voice that es to you as you stand in the cold, dark, smelly, dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town. Oh, it has its moments, this life does.

解析:作者表达了对医生这个职业的一些不满意的地方。作者想有一张属于自己的床铺,并且能够睡个安稳觉。不过,医生这个职业并非一无是处,在他人需要帮助时,医生就有了用武之地。
【小题1】根据第一、二段“Anyone who’s a doctor is right out of luck, ...I need a warm, fortable, undisturbed bed of my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well, that’s what I need.”可知,作者不喜欢医生这个职业,认为学医的人应该好好检查一下他们的大脑,故选C。
【小题2】根据第二、三段“As one of my friends says-even doctors have a few friends-it’s all experience. Experience! ...I need a warm, fortable, undisturbed bed of my own. ...I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well, that’s what I need. ...the heater first blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car-seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel.”可知,A、B、D正确,故选C。
【小题3】根据第四段“Of course, being a doctor isn’t really all bad. ...Once in a while people are ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you get given a cup of tea and rock-hard cake”可知,当医生并非一直是一件坏事,故选D。
【小题4】根据第三段“But don’t call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear-ache that you have had for two weeks.”可知,作者只是不想睡觉时候被打扰,排除A;根据第四段“Of course, being a doctor isn’t really all bad.”可知,作者并非完全否定医生这个职业,排除B;D项文中未提到,故选C。
【小题5】根据第三段“I drive my Mini(微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East London at 3:45 a.m. ...But don’t call me at half past three on a December morning for an ear-ache that you have had for two weeks.”可知,在一个天气状况不好的早晨,作者不想凌晨三点半被叫起来,仅仅是因为耳朵疼,故选B。
