In 2010,after six years of training and further six years on the wards,I resigned from my job as a junior doctor.My parents still haven't forgiven me.
Last year,the General Medical Council wrote to me to say they were taking my name off the medical register.It wasn't exactly a huge shock,as I hadn't practiced medicine in half a decade.
It was,however,excellent news for my spare room,as I cleared out box after box of old paperwork,tearing files up fast.One thing I did rescue from the jaws of death was my training portfolio (檔案袋).All doctors are recommended to log their clinical experience,in what's known as reflective practice.On looking through this portfolio for the first time in years,my reflective practice seemed to involve going up to my hospital on-call room and writing down anything remotely interesting that had happened that day.
Among the funny and the dull,I was reminded of the long hours and the huge impact being a junior doctor had on my life.Reading back,it felt extreme and unreasonable in terms of what was expected of me,but at the time I'd just accepted it as part of the job.There were points where I wouldn't have stepped back if an entry read "had to eat a helicopter today".
Around the same time that I was reliving all this through my diaries,junior doctors in the here and now were coming under fire from politicians.I couldn't help but feel doctors were struggling to get their side of the story across (probably because they were at work the whole time) and it struck me that the public weren't hearing the truth about what it actually means to be a doctor.Rather than shrugging my shoulders and ignoring the evidence,I decided I had to do something to redress the balance.
So here they are:the diaries I kept during my time in the NHS,verruca's and all.What it's like working on the front line,the consequences in my personal life,and how,one terrible day,it all became too much for me. (Sorry for the spoiler of my book beforehand,but you still watched Titanic knowing how that was going to play out.)
Along the way,I'll help you out with the medical terminology and provide a bit of context about what each job involved.Unlike being a junior doctor,I won't just drop you in the deep end and expect you to know exactly what you're doing.
(1)Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 2? DD
A.But I found it a hard job to pick up my practice of medicine.
B.But I found it an easy task to turn over a new leaf in the long term.
C.But I found it a simple act to get involved in self-reflection as a junior doctor.

1.Sure,it's good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.
And yes,it's good to get along well with your teacher because,in general,it's smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.
In fact,kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more,but they're more comfortable about asking questions and getting extra help.This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and do their best on tests.When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher,he or she can be someone to turn to with problems,such as problems with learning or school issues.
Here is a question:what if you don't get along well with your teachers?In fact,teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn.But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes(個(gè)性沖突),which can happen between any two people.If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better,he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen.By dealing with a problem like this,you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.
However,if a certain teacher isn't your favorite,you can still have a successful relationship with him or her,especially_____.Here are some of those responsibilities:
?Attend class ready to learn.
?Be prepared for class with the right pencils,books,and completed assignments.
?Listen when your teacher is talking.
?Do your best,whether it's a classroom assignment,homework,or a test.

2.Suppose you're in a rush,felling tired,not paying attention to your screen,and you send an email that could get you in trouble.
Realisation will probably set in seconds after you've clicked "send".You freeze in horror and bum with shame.
What to do?Here are four common email accidents,and how to recover.
Clicking "send" too soon
Don't waste your time trying to find out if the receiver has read it yet.Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief title explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should be ignored.
Writing the wrong name
The sooner you notice,the better.Respond quickly and briefly,apologising for your mistake.Keep the tone measured:don't handle it too lightly,as people can be offended,especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture (i.e.incorrect ordering of Chinese names).
Clicking "reply all" unintentionally
You accidentally reveal(透露)to the entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner,or what holiday you'd like to take.In this instance,the best solution is to send a quick,light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness.But it can quickly rise to something worse,when everyone starts hitting "reply all" to join in a long and unpleasant conversation.In this instance,step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.
Sending an offensive message to its subject
The most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger.You write an unkind message about someone,intending to send it to a friend,but accidentally send it to the person you're discussing.In that case,ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry.Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly -see it as an opportunity to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.
(1)After realizing an email accident,you are likely to feel
A.curious
B.tired
C.a(chǎn)wful
D.funny
(2)If you have written the wrong name in an email,it is best to
A.a(chǎn)pologise in a serious manner
B.tell the receiver to ignore the error
C.learn to write the name correctly
D.send a short notice to everyone
(3)What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your "reply all" email?
A.Try offering other choices.
B.Avoid further involvement.
C.Meet other staff members.
D.Make a light hearted apology.
(4)What is the passage mainly about?
