问题     Several years ago, I learned that a physician in a town not too far from where I was practicing had committed suicide. Neither I nor my hospital【C1】________knew him, but according to the story we heard, he was the father of young children, was respected by doctors and【C2】________ alike and had struggled privately with mental illness since medical school.
    But it was not the details of his life that haunted us; it was the details of his【C3】________. He had locked himself in a room in the hospital, placed a large needle in his vein and【C4】________himself with a drug that so effectively paralyzed his muscles he was unable to breathe or call for help.
    For days afterward, the doctor’s death came up【C5】________in conversations. We talked about the grief his family must have been experiencing and speculated (猜测) on the extent of depression he must have experienced, but we dared not speak of, let alone imagine, the【C6】________of his final moments.
    Always, we ended up asking one another the same question; How could a doctor—who most likely knew about what he was suffering from and about the treatments available—never【C7】________help?
    For several decades now, studies have consistently shown that physicians have higher rates of suicide than the【C8】________population. While research has【C9】________the beginning of this tragic difference to the years spent in medical school, the【C10】________factors remain uncertain.
    A) colleagues           F) enduring          K) recognized
    B) contributing         G) general           L) repeatedly
    C) corresponding        H) injected          M) seek
    D) death                I) patients          N) suffering
    E) decision             J) rarely            O) traced [br] 【C7】
选项
答案 M
解析 动词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，冒号后面的主干是How could a doctor…never________help?所以空格处应填入动词原形。两个破折号之间的内容对doctor起解释说明的作用，指出他是最有可能知道自己正遭受的痛苦，并且知道有效的治疗措施的人。按照一般人的理解，这样的医生应该会去寻求帮助，所以应填入seek“寻求，谋求”。
