一个英语单选题--------高手帮忙
It was a busy morning,about 8:30,when an elderly gentleman in his 80s,came to the hospital.I heard him saying to the nurse that he was in a hurry as he had an appointment(约会)at 9:30 am.
The nurse had him take a(36)_________ in the waiting area,telling him it would be at least 40 minutes before some one would be able to see him.I saw him looking at his watch and decided,since I was not busy—my patient didn’t turn up at point hours,I would exam his wound.While taking care of his wound,I asked him if he had another doctor’s appointment.
36、A:seat B:break
答案是seat.但我觉得选break更好.
take a seat 和 take a break放进来语法都没错,这里主要是看意思了.
take a break,中文翻译成“休息一会儿”,但实际上是打断正在进行的活动来休息的意思,break本身就是打断.所以take a break的意思其实是“中场休息”,你带到句子里就发现用这个不合适了.本来就没开始什么,何来打断呢.
所以take a seat,坐下,放在这里比较合适.
