It is a true story which happened during World War II in a certain state in the east of the U. S. A.
One day a young man named Jim received an enlistment notice in which he was told to undergo the physical examination the next day. To Jim it seemed like a bolt from the blue. He was troubled so much that he couldn’t get to sleep all the night. In all fairness, Jim wasn’t a coward and he hated the Fascists deeply. But he wouldn’t join the army. Why? It was all because he was in love with a beautiful girl and he would not be separated from his girl friend. "If I could find a way to make the doctors believe there are some defects in my body," he thought, "I would avoid being sent to serve in the army. But how?..." He thought and thought. Suddenly to his great joy, a good idea crossed his mind.
The next morning Jim got to the hospital on time. He was led into a large room where he found an aged medical officer sitting behind a large writing-desk, busy looking through the sheets of paper carefully. " It must be the chief doctor," to himself Jim thought, " and I’d best try not to be paid attention to by that old fellow. " With the thought, he hurriedly found a seat to sit down on and took out an out-of-age newspaper, pretending to read it.
Not long before that, Jim heard his name called. He knew it was his turn to be examined. When Jim came up to the doctor, the old man raised his head slowly from his papers and took a quick and sharp look at him, then in a whisper he ordered Jim to put his newspaper on the table and take off his clothes at once. Of course, Jim had to do what he was wanted to. After that, he was told to go straight to a corner and sit down on a chair there. But to Jim’s great surprise, no sooner had he seated himself on the chair than he heard the doctor murmuring to his assistants; "Finished! That lad is quite up to the standard. "
"How can you draw such a conclusion like that before you give me a careful check? It’s too rash!" Still on the chair, Jim shouted at the doctor. " Don’t be impetuous, young man! Get off and put on your clothes, and then I’ll explain it to you. " the doctor said calmly.
And when Jim stood before the old man, the doctor held out his hand and gave a pat on his broad shoulder. A smile on his face, he said to Jim in kind voice; " My boy, you said we didn’t examine you carefully, didn’t you? But I don’t think it necessary for us to do that. You might be puzzled about this. Now let me tell you how and why. " A pause to take a breath, he went on: "When I whispered to you to put down the newspaper and take off your clothes, you did it as I told you. It shows you have good ears. And then when you were asked to go and sit on the chair in that corner, you did it, too. It shows you can see any object within a certain distance. So you are not nearsighted at all. Besides, you were found reading the newspaper just now, and we are certain you are a man of intelligence. In a word, we make no doubt that you are perfect in mind and body. Now I’m glad to say you’ve passed the physical examination, that is to say you’ll be a glorious soldier. Congratulations!"
With those words the medical officer stretched out both hands to Jim, and Jim could do nothing but hold them in his own. " I wish you to be a good fighter and fight for the justice and freedom of human beings!" said the old man in an inspiring voice. And Jim was so moved that his eyes were full of tears.
Half a year later, Jim was killed in the European battlefield. At this news his girl friend nearly went mad. She dashed down to the shore and stood there, looking out to the boundless ocean. She kept weeping, while calling her lover’s name. "Don’t be like that, my dear. " It was an old man’s trembling voice. "Your Jim died a real man. He devoted his life to the people all over the world. It is right that we should be proud of him..." Saying this, the old man, her father, was choked. His only regret was that he had never had Jim know who he was. This old man was no other than the medical officer who had given Jim the health check.
选项
答案
还没多长时间,吉姆就听到有人喊他的名字。他知道该自己体检了。吉姆走到医生跟前,老医生慢慢地抬起头,快速扫了一眼吉姆,低声地说让他把报纸放在桌子上,然后马上把衣服脱掉。当然,吉姆按要求做了。之后,医生要求他径直走到角落里,坐在那儿的椅子上。然而让吉姆惊讶的是,他一坐到椅子上,就听到医生在和助手小声地说:“没问题!这小伙子非常符合标准。” 当吉姆站在老医生面前,老医生伸出手,拍了拍吉姆宽阔的肩膀,脸上带着微笑,和蔼地对吉姆说;“孩子啊,你是不是说我们没有仔细检查你的身体?我们认为没那个必要了。你可能还不明白。我告诉你怎么回事吧。”他停下来喘了口气,接着说:“我小声告诉你把报纸放下,把衣服脱了的时候,你就照着做了。这就说明你的听力没问题。让你坐到角落里的椅子上的时候,你也照着做了。这说明一定距离内的东西,你都能看得见。所以你也不会是近视眼。除此之外,刚才发现你在读报纸,我们就认定你是个有文化的人。总的来说,你的头脑和身体都没有问题,这一点我们是毫无疑问的。现在,很高兴你已经通过了体检,也就是说,你将会成为一个光荣的战士。恭喜啊。” 半年后,吉姆死于欧洲战场。知道消息后,他的女朋友几乎要疯掉。她冲向海边,站在那儿,望着无边无际的大海。她一边不停地在哭泣,一边叫着她爱人的名字。“亲爱的,别这样。”这是一个老人颤颤巍巍的声音。“你的吉姆以一个真正的男人的身份死去。他把自己的生命奉献给了全世界的人民。我们应该以他为荣。”这个老人,也就是女孩的父亲,一边说着一边啜泣。他唯一的遗憾就是从来没让吉姆知道他的身份。这个老人不是别人,就是那个给吉姆做体检的医疗官。
