I remember him ing into the sitting room one night, and when he went to sit down, I said to my brother, “I hope he doesnt sit down. ” I was 12 years old then.My grandfather wrote poetry on great rolls of thin white paper with a paintbrush, but over the years I wouldnt listen to him read his poems.

Whenever I am stuck for a word, I ask her. Whenever I am with her, or relatives, I practise. Now I am confident that the next time an elderly relative wants me to listen to them, I am not only willing, I am able.

Problem was, “I couldnt move from my bed, and I didnt want to pay for taxis to and from the hospital,” says Sodera.So he grasped his mobile phone hurriedly and opened Doctor on Demand, a new app that allows users to video-chat with doctors to get medical help in real time. He typed in symptoms, got paired with a nearby specialist and sent him a few photos of his knee. Within minutes, the doctor informed Sodera that he Likely dislocated his knee and would need an MRIwhich he scheduled for the following week.Nowadays, telemedicine is being increasingly mainstream, thanks to apps like Doctor on Demand, which is hacked by Dr. Phil, and HoakhTap, which attracts more than I million users.For patients, telemedicine apps are a cheap, easy alternative to nonemergency consultations. Asking text-based questions on HealthTap and AskMD is free, and a 15-minute appointment via Doctor on Demand costs $40. For doctors, the apps are a tool to build a public profile, attract new patients and make a little extra cash during their downtime. And for hospitals, theyre a means to streamline rare for existing patients. As Murray Aitken, executive director of the health care consultancy IMS Institute, puts it, “We are going to see a major shift in how medicine is practiced and where.”But there are concerns. Although telemedicine apps can be useful for diagnosing routine illnesses, theyre not meant to totally replace in-person doctors exams especially for potentially serious diseases like chest pain. Its also not ideal to get prescriptions (处方) from a doctor who doesnt have your electronic medical-record history on hand.The key, says Aitken, is striking a balanceand using telemedicine to replace unnecessary visits. “If there is a way to keep healthy patients out of the doctors office through telemedicine,” he says, “thats a good thing.”32.Why does the author mention the example of Vivek Sodera?A. To introduce the topic.B. To prove the danger of a night out.C. To advertise a new app.D. To show the usage of telemedicine apps.33.What can we learn about the telemedicine apps?A. They are suitable for routine disease consultations.B They save severe disease sufferers time and money.C. They are tools to publicize medical information.D. They help hospitals to attract more patients.34.What is Murray Aitkens attitude towards telemedicine apps?A. Doubtful.B. Supportive.C. Opposed.D. Concerned.35. Whats the best tide for the passage?A. The Doctor will Video-chat with You NowB. New Mobile Phones Can famine Patients KneesC. Vivck Sodera rented a New Telemedicine AppD. Telemedicine Apps Replaced In-person Doctor Exams第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Each of us fails from time to time.
