【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了一个感人的爱情故事：在“我”给一位八十多岁的老人看病过程中得知老人在妻子生病住院期间，尽管妻子已经有五年都不认识他了，但这位老人仍然坚持每天早上来医院和妻子一起吃早饭。通过这件事让“我”知道真正的爱是接受所有的一切。

36. 根据it would be at least 40 minutes  38_  someone would be able to see him可知在没轮到老人看病时，护士让他坐在候诊室等候。Take a seat意为“就坐，坐下”；A意为“呼吸”；B意为“测试”；D意为“休息”。

37. telling现在分词作为伴随状语，“tell sb. sth.”护士让老人坐下等候的同时告诉他轮到他看病至少得40分钟。

38. it would be +一段时间+before...为固定句型，意为“将要过多久才……”。

39. 根据第一段第二句话这个老人对护士所说的话可知，因为老人很匆忙要赶上9:30的约会，所以老人在等待过程中不停地看手表。

40. 根据my patient didn’t 41_ at the appointed hour可知“我”当时不忙，故选 D。

41. turn up意为“到达，出现，露面”；B意为“炫耀”；C意为“加油”；D意为“走开，离开”。根据“我”不忙可知“我”的病人没有在约定的时间到达。

42. 根据上文第一段for an appointment可知老人在老伴生病期间需要去护理房……。

43. 根据下文she 和true love 可知是老人的妻子。

44. 根据she had a special disease可知老人的妻子在nursing room，上文已提到，故为了避免重复用there代替。

45. 如果老人约会去迟了，老人的妻子会不会为他而担心，这是人之常情。故选B。

46. 由she had not been able to  47__   him for five years now 可知她已经不再知道他是谁。

47. 由下文even though she doesn’t know who you are可知老人的妻子已经有五年都不认识他了。A意为“认出，识别”；B意为“回答”；C意为“相信”；D意为“希望，期望”。

48. 当听到老人的话，“我”感到很惊讶。C符合语境。

49. 由上文可知老人明知道他妻子已经认不出他来了，但他却和她约会共进早餐，说明老人仍然坚持每天都去。

50.我”被老人的话所感动，故抑制住自己的眼泪。

51. 通过这件事使作者意识到什么是真正的爱。

52. 根据上文老人对重病中的妻子不离不弃，接受她现在所有的一切，这才是婚姻中真正的爱情。

53. not necessarily 为固定用法，意为“未必,不一定”。

54. make the best of 固定短语，意为“充分利用”。最幸福的人不一定非得拥有一切美好的东西，最幸福的人是那些充分利用把握他们所拥有的人。

55. 由上文老人的故事可知生命不在于如何度过风暴，而是如何在风暴中快乐坚强地品味生活，这才是生活的真谛。
