问题     In a new article, four London doctors warn of a professional who is committing malpractice and getting away with it: the tooth fairy.
    They report on an 8-year-old boy who was sent to an allergist because of his epic runny nose. Regular old【S1】______treatment didn’t work, so the next step was a CT scan. 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. His parents thought that was pretty unlikely, although the tooth had【S5】______gone missing. 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.
A)right F)medical K)failure
B)expressed G)risky L)pillow
C)accidentally H)removed M)standard
D)descendants I)indeed N)danger
E)revealed J)attempting O)woken [br] 【S10】

选项

答案 M

解析 形容词辨析题。空格前为形容词no,后面为非谓语动词短语operating procedures,说明此处需要填入一个形容词进行修饰。句子后面提到“医生们应该留意牙仙的工作”,由此推知,此处应表达出“牙仙是不可信的”的意思,因此形容词standard符合题意,本处的意思为“牙仙没有标准的操作程序”。
