1. (2023高二下·海林月考)  阅读理解 

"I have travelled the world for 25 years in search of trouble," admits Dr David Nott in his recent autobiography, War Doctor: Surgery on the Front Line. "It is a kind of addiction, a pull I find hard to resist. " This pull has seen him use his surgical skills to help those in need by taking unpaid, month-long breaks from his "day job" as an NHS surgeon in the UK every year to work in conflict zones and disaster areas.

He first worked in Sarajevo in 1993 as a volunteer with the French charity Médecins Sans Froatières. The hospital be worked in had so many holes in its walls caused by bombing and sniper(狙击手) fire that it was called the "Swiss Cheese Hospital". It was his first insight into the terrifying reality of treating patients in a war zone. The hospital suffered power cuts during operations and he and his team were regularly shot at.

But Nott found this exhilarating(令人激动的). "Going to Sarajevo, almost getting killed, I had never felt so wonderful. I really felt as though somebody bad injected me with something. I felt fantastic. I think to skirt death—and then to realize how close you are to death and that you survived it is exciting. And that's the experience I've had many times over. "

 This attitude may seem reckless (鲁莽的), but it means that Nott has saved lives in desperate situations. In Gaza in 2014, he decided not to abandon a young girl in the middle of surgery despite being told that the hospital was about to be bombed. He carried on, no bombs fell and the girl survived. He has kept a photograph of them taken together three days later. In Yemen, he operated on the wife of a bomb-maker who had accidentally blown up his own house. Nott found a detonator (雷管) buried in her leg and bad to carefully dispose of it before continuing the operation.
