試題分析：本文講述了一個有意思的小故事，一個人半夜打不到出租車。但是又必須當夜回到家里。于是想到醫(yī)生半夜也是會出診的。于是去喊醫(yī)生的門。讓他開車送他回家。到家后他讓醫(yī)生回去，醫(yī)生很摸不著頭腦，問道：“我還沒看病人呢？”

【1】A細節(jié)理解題。由文章第一句話A young American doctor was sleeping upstairs when suddenly his doorbell began to ring.可知，當門鈴響的時候，醫(yī)生正在樓上睡覺。故選A

【2】D細節(jié)理解題。文中原句Said the man. “Can you come at once to a place out of town? 那個人說您能立刻去城外的一個地方嗎？。故選D

【3】B細節(jié)理解題。由文中語句They drove on for a long time. 中的drove這個詞可知，他們是開車去的。故選B

【4】C細節(jié)理解題。由文章大意可知，這個人半夜打不到車，但是醫(yī)生總是晚上也會接診的，所以他去喊醫(yī)生的門，所以這里的意思應該是夜間出診。故選C

【5】B細節(jié)理解題。由那個人的話“Nobody is ill. I live here, and one must get home from a town. There are no taxis this time of the night, but a doctor often makes night calls, so excuse me. Here is money. Thank you, doctor. 可知，沒有人得病，但是他必須從城里返回家，半夜里又沒有出租車，所以才去敲醫(yī)生的門。故選B
