Anyone who’s studying medicine should have his head examined. You may think I want to change my job. Well，at the moment I do. As one of my friends says－even doctors have a few friends－it’s all experience. Experience! I don’t need such experience. I need a warm，comfortable，undisturbed bed of my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown down the nearest well，that’s what I need. All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini (微型汽车) through the foggy streets of East London at 3∶45 a．m. on a December morning. I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat and a bag of medicines. As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour，the heater first blowing hot then cold，my back aching from the carseat，I do not feel like a ministering angel. I wish I were on the beach in Southern France. Call me a bad doctor if you like. Call me what you will. But don’t call me at half past three on a December morning for an earache that you have had for two weeks. Of course，being a doctor isn’t really all bad. We do have our moments. Once in a while people are ill，once in a while you can help，once in a while you get given a cup of tea and rockhard cake at two o’clock in the morning－then you worry if you have done everything. But all too often ‘everything’ is a repeating rule: look，listen，feel，tap. Pills，injection，phone，ambulance，away to the next. And then there is always the cool，warm voice of the girl on the switchboard(总机) of the emergency bed service who will get your patient into hospital for you－the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand in the cold，dark，smelly，dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town. Oh，it has its moments，this life does. 【文章大意】 医生一直是人们所羡慕的一个职业，然而作为医生的作者却有很多苦恼。 1．According to the sentence “Anyone who’s studying medicine should have his he
