I soon found myself at the center of a crazy activity, in the middle of doctors, policemen and passers-by. A large can opener was used to get me out of my broken car and into an ambulance(救护车). Over the next eight hours. I was taken to hospital, tested with X-ray and diagnosed(诊断) with a broken neck. Knowing that Id been saved from death encouraged me throughout the long wait in the hospital and helped me deal with the countless visitors. Only after I was sure that the last friend had left could I direct my energies inwards. Flying in and out of my line of vision during my hospital stay was the Red Cross lady, a gentle presence in white who, from time to time, came in to offer cups of tea. After the visitors had gone, she came up to me and checked if I was all right. I found myself telling her everything about the accident, my fears for my family as a result of my injuries(伤)—about my whole life. While I waited for an ambulance to take me to another hospital, she stood by my bed and held my hand as I off-loaded all the emotion Id hidden from my family. She listened, quiet and patient. Even now, the knowledge that I have the ways to get in touch with her provides me with great comfort. I look forward to a day in the near future when my angel(天使) and I can meet again, in happier situation. In times of danger, faith(信仰) can encourage us. My faith in human nature called back by the kindness of a stranger has helped to ease my journey back to health. 54. What happened to the writer in the accident? A. She was hit by a car. B.
