The scan showed signs of infection in the sinuses(鼻窦). But it also【S2】______something more surprising: a tooth in his left ear canal. It turned out that 3 years before, the boy had【S3】______up "extremely distressed" because the tooth fairy had taken the tooth from under his【S4】______and jammed it in his ear.

Two doctors that looked in his ear over the years failed to see anything—but the boy was【S6】______, it turned out.
    An ear, nose, and throat surgeon【S7】______the tooth, the authors report in the often not-so-serious Christmas issue of British Medical Journal. "The patient decided to keep the tooth for future【S8】______rather than taking the risk of【S9】______a further money reward," they write. They also point out that there are no【S10】______operating procedures for the tooth fairy, and doctors should be on the lookout for his or her work.

解析 动词辨析题。空格前为名词短语the risk of，空格后为名词短语a further money reward，说明此处需要填入一个动词的动名词形式。通过以上分析可知，所有选项中只有attempting合适，此处指“患者不打算通过这颗牙齿去寻求金钱的报酬”。
