My friend Shannon knew that she was going to marry her husband the clay that they met．She had dated a lot of men following her divorce, but none of them felt right．Then, she met Bob．There was something about the way he smiled, his voice and the shape of his hands, that made her think that they had known each other before．After talking it was clear that their paths had never crossed, but after their first lunch date, they became
inseparable．What Shannon and Bob immediately felt for each other was more than just physical chemistry．It was a natural understanding and a depth of closeness that usually arises after couples are together for many years．They were married two months after they met and have been together now for ten years．

Déjà vus can take place anywhere, at any time and with anyone．Don't let these possibilities pass you by．Summoning the courage to take a chance and act, to have faith in what is not yet visible, will make the experience your own．

Many Canadians are aware that problems with the nation's health care system have resulted in a lack of hospital beds and medical equipment, overcrowded emergency rooms, long waiting lists, and not enough family doctors. Over the last 10 years, the number of medical students choosing the family practice as their lifelong career has been dropping at a surprising rate. When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite（援引）a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice. As in other kinds of work, young doctors today want a balance between their professional and personal lives.
In British Columbia (BC) this problem is made worse because the province produces fewer medical graduates for each person than any other province in Canada. The provincial government has committed itself to doubling the number of medical student graduates. This strategy doesn't come close to giving us the new doctors needed each year in BC to replace those who are retiring, moving out of the province, reducing their hours of practice, or dying. The primary care system is showing its cracks. Ten years ago, 2,030 of BC's family doctors were providing obstetrical（产科的）care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service. Although delivering babies is a \area of medicine, the hours are long, but the reward for bringing new life into the world is modest. It's no surprise, then, that many of BC's family doctors are no longer taking on new patients. In 1999, there were 1,420 family doctors accepting new patients—in 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.
The foundation of primary care needs to be strengthened. The Working Agreement between the doctors and the government includes a series of primary care renewal projects designed to make the family practice more attractive to medical graduates, improve upon working conditions, and entice family doctors from outside BC to start their business here. Yet still more needs to be done.
（1）What makes medical students unwilling to be family physicians? A.The student debt and long working hours. B.Long term of study at a medical school. C.A limited number of places in medical school.
D.An increasing number of patients and long waiting lists for specialists.

（2）What does the text say about family doctors in BC? A.They are no longer needed. B.They are too few in number. C.They will soon become abundant. D.They are rapidly leaving the province.
（3）Which can replace the underlined word \A.Forbid.
（4）What is the primary purpose of the text? A.To show sympathy for family doctors. B.To inspire young people to be family doctors. C.To stress the urgent need of more family doctors. D.To tell the disadvantages of being family doctors.
