问题     When John Weston awoke that morning, he remembered that his mother was going into hospital. He hadn’t worked out what was wrong with her. He knew, though, she hadn’t been well for some time now, and it bad become familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to a specialist who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself.
    During the weeks since then the pains had come ever more frequently, and the narrowed eyes be came an almost lasting part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that John’s father kept his thoughts to himself more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances (体谅), tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad-tempered that would make you.
    So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. John’s cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round, now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didn’t care much for it. Apart from missing his mother (and she was glad she was going away be cause they would make her better), he wasn’t very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than her mother.

选项 A、as soon as she realized that something was wrong
B、only after her husband advised her to
C、a long time after the trouble began
D、when John asked what was wrong with her

答案C

解析 文章第一段说John知道母亲生病已经有一段时间了,他已经习惯看到她皱着眉头,Their own doctor,who she had finally gone to for advice,由此可知,她是生病一段时间后才去看医生的。
