四、阅读短文，判断正(T)误(F)。
An old man goes to see a doctor. The doctor looks him over carefully and says, “Medicine won't help you. You must have a good rest. Go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot and smoke (吸) one cigar (雪茄) a day. Live in the countryside for a month.”
After a month, the old man comes to the doctor again. “How are you? I'm glad to see you again. You look much younger,” says the doctor. “Oh! Doctor, I feel quite well now,” says the old man. “I did all that you said. Your advice (建议) certainly (确实) helped me, but smoking one cigar a day almost killed (杀死) me at first. It's no joke (玩笑) starting smoking at my age!”
() 1. The doctor doesn't tell the old man what to do.
() 2. After a month, the old man feels very well.
() 3. At first, the doctor thought the old man smoked a lot.
() 4. The old man was not a smoker (吸烟者) at first.

1. F 2. T 3. T 4. T

2. 原文中老人复诊时说“Oh! Doctor, I feel quite well now,”，说明一个月后老人感觉很好，表述正确，答案为T。
3. 医生建议老人每天抽一支雪茄，结合老人后来的话可知，医生原本以为老人之前抽烟很多，让他减少到每天一支，该表述正确，答案为T。
4. 老人提到“It's no joke starting smoking at my age!”，说明他之前并不抽烟，该表述正确，答案为T。
【答案】
