问题     In a new article, four London doctors warn of a professional who is committing malpractice and getting away with it: the tooth fairy.
    They report on an 8-year-old boy who was sent to an allergist because of his epic runny nose. Regular old【S1】______treatment didn’t work, so the next step was a CT scan. The scan showed signs of infection in the sinuses(鼻窦). But it also【S2】______something more surprising: a tooth in his left ear canal. It turned out that 3 years before, the boy had【S3】______up "extremely distressed" because the tooth fairy had taken the tooth from under his【S4】______and jammed it in his ear. His parents thought that was pretty unlikely, although the tooth had【S5】______gone missing. Two doctors that looked in his ear over the years failed to see anything—but the boy was【S6】______, it turned out.
    An ear, nose, and throat surgeon【S7】______the tooth, the authors report in the often not-so-serious Christmas issue of British Medical Journal. "The patient decided to keep the tooth for future【S8】______rather than taking the risk of【S9】______a further money reward," they write. They also point out that there are no【S10】______operating procedures for the tooth fairy, and doctors should be on the lookout for his or her work.
A)right F)medical K)failure
B)expressed G)risky L)pillow
C)accidentally H)removed M)standard
D)descendants I)indeed N)danger
E)revealed J)attempting O)woken
【S4】
选项
答案L
解析 名词辨析题。空格前为形容词，所以所填词语应为名词。通过常识进行判断，西方的孩子们乳牙掉落后，有把牙齿放在枕头下等待牙仙前来收取的习俗，因此名词pillow“枕头”合适。
