In her early days as an emergency room physician, Doctor Joanna Myer treated a child who had suffered a second degree burn. After the child had been treated and was being prepared for discharge, Doctor Myer talked to the parents about how they should care for the child at home. Also listening to her were a half a dozen other family members. A few hours later, when she came to say goodbye, the family asked her to settle an argument they’d been having over exactly what advice she had given. "As I talked to them, 1 was amazed". she said, "All of them had heard the simple instructions I have given just a few hours before, but they have three or four different versions. The most basic details were unclear and confusing. I was surprised, because these were intelligent people". This episode gave Doctor Myer her first clue to something every doctor learns sooner or later—most people just don’t listen very well. Nowadays, she says she repeats her instructions, and even conducts a reality check with some patients. She asks them to tell her what they think they are supposed to do. She also provides take-home sheets which are computer printouts tailored to the patients’ situation. Doctor Myer’s listeners are not unusual. When new or difficult material is presented, almost all listeners are faced with the challenge because human speech lacks the stability and permanence of the printed word. Oral communication is fast-moving and impermanent.
Questions:
What did the child’s family members argue about in the hospital?
What does Doctor Myer do to insure her patients understand her instructions?
What does the speaker say about human speech?
选项
A、It lacks the stability of the printed word.
B、It contains many grammatical errors.
C、It is heavily dependent on the context.
D、It facilitates interpersonal communication.
答案
A
解析
Question: What does the speaker say about human speech?
本题为推理判断题。本题询问作者对于口语交流(human speech)的看法。答案出现在结尾处,原文human speech lacks the stability and permanence of the printed word(讲话缺少书面文字的稳定性和持久性)。A选项几乎与原文一致。B是说它有很多语法上的错误;C是说它过于依赖于上下文联系;D是说它有助于人际交往,这些都与原文不符。
