One evening, when I was preparing medicine for some sick people, the doctor, who was also my teacher, asked me to take his stethoscope for him. It was in the room at the end of that building. The lamps gave poor light. I opened the door. To my horror, there were two dead people lying on both sides, with white clothes on their faces. I was very much frightened. My hair stood on end. I thought if one of them came back to life, he or she would catch hold of me and would say, “I’m not dead.” What would happen? But I had another thought. I should be brave enough. I had to take the stethoscope for my teacher. So I shut my eyes and walked quietly towards the desk. I took the stethoscope in my hand and rushed out as fast as I could. When I handed it to my teacher, he said I had brought him the wrong one. I had to go back again. This time I was not as frightened as before. When my teacher saw the stethoscope, he smiled and said, “You have passed your examination.” 判断正(A)误(B) ( ) 36. When the story happened I was a medical student. ( ) 37.
