问题     Living is risky. Crossing the road, driving a car, flying,
swallowing an aspirin tablet or eating a chicken sandwich--they
can all be fatal. Clearly some risks worth taking, especially                 【M1】______
when the rewards are high: a man surrounded by flames and
smoke generally considers that jumping out of a second floor
    window is an acceptable risk to save its life. But in medicine a          【M2】______
few procedures, drugs, operations or tests are really a matter of             【M3】______
life and death. There may be sound medicine reasons for accepting             【M4】______
electrical shock treatment, but such reasons are totally dependent
in the balance of risks and benefits for the patients.                        【M5】______
    Surgery for cancer may cure or prolong a life, but the removal
of tonsils (扁桃体) cannot save anything a sore throat.                       【M6】______
Blood pressure drugs definitely help some people live after a
heart attack, but these same drugs may be both necessary and                  【M7】______
harmful for those with only mild blood pressure problems.
    Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparing to                 【M8】______
put up with in the name of better health is a high personal matter            【M9】______
not a decision we should remain to doctors alone.                             【M10】______
【M8】
选项
答案preparing改成 prepared
解析 固定搭配错误。be prepared to do 是固定短语，意思是“准备做某事”，相当于be ready to do，这里 prepared 作形容词用。be preparing只能解释为进行时态，很显然这里不对。put up with 意为“承受，忍受”。译文：我们以身体健康的名义来决定要准备忍受多少的不安和风险是一件超乎寻常的个人事情，而不是让医生单独去做决定。
