完形填空。
I believe in miracles because I've seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was
one hundred and two years old. "There's a
1 in my upper jaw," she said. "I told my own dentist it's nothing,
but he
2 I come to see you".
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would
3 to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted
to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the
4 of her mouth. A careful
examination later
5 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.
During her next appointment, I explained to her the
6 of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and
said, "I know you're worried about me, but I'm just
7 ."
I thought otherwise. After considerable
8 on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted
to
9 me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon. She saw him, but as I expected,
10 treatment.
About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and
11 .
"How are you?"I asked.
"I'm just fine., honey," she responded
12 high spirits. "When can I get stared on fixing my dentures (假牙)?"
Surprised to see her at all, I answered
13 , "Let me take a look in your mouth and we'll see about it."
I couldn't believe my eyes. The cancer that had
14 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone-only one
small area of redness
15 .
I had read of such things happening, but had
16 seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle.
Since then I've seen many others, because they keep getting
17 to see. In fact, miracles are daily events for me
now. And people are in miracle,
18 through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to
19 the miracles
of one another.
Since my first miracle, I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is
20 we choose to find
it.
