问题     The English author, Richard Savage, was once living in London in great poverty. In order to earn a little money he had written the story of his life, but not many copies of the book had been sold in the shop, so Savage was liv ing from hand to mouth. As a result of his lack of food he became very ill. However after a time, because of the skill of the doctor who had looked after him, he got well again. After a week or two the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his visits, but poor Savage hadn’ t any money and couldn’ t pay it. The doctor waited for another month and sent the bill again. But still no money came. After several weeks he sent it to him again asking for his money. In the end he came to Savage’s house and asked him for payment, saying to Savage, "You know you owe your life to me and I expected some gratitude from you. "
    " I agree, " said Savage, " that I owe my life to you, and to prove to you that I am not ungrateful for your work I will give my life to you. " With these words he handed to him two copies entitled THE LIFE OF RICHARD. [br] According to the text we can imagine that______.
选项 A、the doctor was poor too

C、me doctor was skilled but cruel
D、the doctor was glad to have got the two books
答案 A
解析 从文章中的内容可知，医生治好了理查德的病，并要求理查德付费，这本来无可厚非。但是文章说道“After a week or two the doctor senta bill to Savage for his visits．…After several weeks he sent it to him again asking for his money.”，说明医生可能也是比较穷的，因为他一直在等待这些医药费。故正确的答案为A。
