Steven Weinberg is that kind of person who not only would like to help others, but really enjoying doing so. That is【C1】______ he joined forces with his wife, Mary, and a cancer survivor Paul Young to found Hospitality for Family and Friends, Inc. The【C2】______ group helps find unsold hotel rooms for families and friends of cancer patients or for patients themselves the night before an early morning operation or【C3】______ .
"The other day we got a call from a woman who had driven all the way from Michigan to get her husband to Memorial Sloan-Kettering for treatment," said Weinberg. "She and her sons had no place to stay, so the hospital’s【C4】 ______ of social work suggested they【C5】______ us. We found a room for them at last."
Since hotel【C6】______ can be very expensive, Weinberg and his volunteer staff find rooms where families can stay —free of charge of course —for one or two nights. They work with 8 hospitals and 19 hotels.
"We’re【C7】______ on increasing the number of【C8】______ hotels in the New York area now, this is the place where we start our program and we have a lot of connections here", Weinberg said. "When we first started our program, we can not imagine the program is so【C9】______ now. And we hope someday we can take the program【C10】______ ."
And in these years of helping others, we come to understand more about people’s needs, and those needs do not necessarily【C11】______ financial support. One time, there was a 60-year-old man calling us, asking if we could【C12】______ a room near the hospital for him to stay before his major operation. We agreed, and managed to find one room of 3-minute walking distance from the hospital. And after we【C13】______ our promise, he told us the truth.
He is a man of large means, and he can well afford to live in a【C14】______ hotel. The reason why he chose to【C15】______ us for help is that he wanted to live in a place that【C16】______ like a home. He is actually wealthy, and he has several sons and daughters, but none of them could【C17】______ him to go through the painful operation because of their busy schedule.
Since it began【C18】______ two years ago, the group has received many letters of【C19】______ . A patient from Pennsylvania wrote:" Your kind service provided me with peace of mind going into surgery【C20】______ that my wife was safe nearby."
【C17】
选项
A、companion
B、accompany
C、accompanying
D、accomplish
答案
B
解析
考查词义;A“伙伴,伴侣”;B “陪伴”;C“伴随着的”;D“成就,达到”;和原文结合,可以看到“老人不缺少子女,但都因为繁忙,不能陪伴老人去做手术”,这样的意思是通顺的,所以作为动词出现的“陪伴”应该是最佳选择,B为正确答案。
