Question

Read and choose the right answer according to the passage. (阅读并选择)

Many years ago, in a village near a small town, there lived a doctor. He was kind and always ready to help sick people. Everyone in the town liked him and people always went to him if there was something wrong with them. But many years went past and the doctor became old. He began to lose his memory (记忆力). This made him do foolish things sometimes. When people noticed this, they did not go to him any more. “He may give us the wrong medicine and it will have a bad effect on us,” they said.

“Why does no one come to me now?” he wondered. No one wanted to tell him the truth because they did not want to hurt (使伤心) the good-hearted old man. People had a good idea and they said, “You have cured (治愈) all the sick people in the town. There is no sick now.” The doctor was pleased when he heard that.
