问答题 What might happen to the big wheel style patients?
【正确答案】正确答案:Doctors will do anything to relieve their responsibility.
【答案解析】解析:根据the big wheel定位到第12段。本题问医生不喜欢的“会哭的孩子”会遭遇什么。由第12段后半部分的内容可知,这类病人可能会接受持续时间更短、医生更不敏感的检查以及更多的测试,然后经历由第一批测试发现的异常所带来的进一步测试。该段末尾更是总结说到,这些都是会减少医生对不好的病人的责任心的事情(anything to relieve the doctor’s responsibility for a bad patient)据此可将本题答案概括为Doctors will do anything to relieve their responsibility。
