B. hospital for the dying
C. hostel
D. insane asylum
题目解答
答案
B. hospital for the dying
解析
本题考查对单词词义的理解以及对句子语境的把握。解题的关键在于理解题干中“$\underline{Hospice}$ care”的含义,然后分析各个选项的意思,找出与“$\underline{Hospice}$ care”意思最相符的选项。
- 题干中提到“$\underline{Hospice}$ care can be offered in hospitals, medical centers, and special facilities, but most frequently it is offered in the patient's home”,意思是临终关怀可以在医院、医疗中心和特殊设施中提供,但最常见的是在患者家中提供。由此可知,“$\underline{Hospice}$ care”指的是针对临终患者的关怀护理。
- 选项A:“hostelry”意为“旅馆;客栈”,与临终关怀的意思毫无关联,所以A选项不符合。
- 选项B:“hospital for the dying”表示“临终医院”,临终医院提供的护理就是临终关怀,与“$\underline{Hospice}$ care”的含义一致,所以B选项正确。
- 选项C:“hostel”指“青年旅社;招待所”,和临终关怀没有关系,所以C选项不正确。
- 选项D:“insane asylum”是“精神病院”的意思,与临终关怀的概念不同,所以D选项也不正确。
