Problems arose when patients refused to have the Saudi doctor examine them. Interviews with patients revealed two problems: He “smelled bad“ and he breathed on the p

18、atients. The doctor“s training had apparently failed to include the difference between Arabic and American attitudes and practices relating to smell.

31、s. Once he even sang a song in class to illustrate a point. Second, I admired the fact that he would confer with students outside of the classroom or talk with them on the telephone. Drinking coffee in the snack bar, he would easily make friends with students. Sometimes he would challenge a student

32、to a game of chess. At other times, he would join groups to discuss subjects ranging from astronomy to scuba diving.

40、：On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer“s real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fear of loss.

42、motives can be both negative and positive effects.”接着简要描述了一些负面的状况，并不排除广告中介绍的物品也却有奇效的。 第二段有一个总领句，即“Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading.”之后列举了一个例子，来说明确实有一些广告是故意误导消费者的。 那么第三段应该是怎样的内容呢?我们先不急于判断，把最后一段内容阅读完毕再来判断。最后一段的内容是讲述每一个消费者必须去估量自身的情况，去考虑想要购买的产品是否值得购买。广告固然是为了吸引消费者，但毕竟消费者自己有最终的决定权。这可算是一个小

43、小的文章总结。 那么我们回过头来再去猜想第三段应该怎样补写。很自然，在经过文章开头的总领之后，加之已经介绍过了广告的负面结果，最终又对消费者的购物目的做了总结，第三段的内容应该是介绍一些有关广告的正面效应来和上下文衔接。段首应该有一个总领句，介绍广告也确实有积极的方面。为了和上段的结构照应，也应该列举一个例子来说明为什么也会有这样的正面效果。这样文章就被补写完整了。3.The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing.
