My friend Alice decided to be a nurse 1 she was four years old．She always wanted to play “doctors and nurses” with other children．When she left school last year, she still wanted to be a 2 ．One day she saw an advertisement in the newspaper：DO YOU WANT TO HELP PEOPLE? STUDY NURSING．Send this form to us for more information(情况)．Alice 3 the table with her name and address．She cut it out and 4 it that day．
Later September she started her studies in a big 5 in Richmond．She had to study very hard．She went to classes every day and studied late at night．She 6 went to bed until twelve o’ clock．Then a really important day came：her first day in a ward(病房)．At last she was really helping 7 instead of just sitting in classes or learning from books．At first, student nurses have to do all kinds of work in the ward．They help to serve(端)meals or wash the patients．They also keep the ward tidy and make the 8 ．They can’t give injections(打针)or help the doctors．
One of Alice’s jobs was in the ward of old people．She was told to clean all patients’false(假的)teeth．She asked each patient if he had any false 9 ．She brought all the teeth together and took them to the washing room．Instead of cleaning each of teeth one by one, she put them all into one big plate．
“It’ll be quicker this way,” She said to herself．“Then I can give back everyone’s teeth!” Alice stood in the middle of the ward with her big plate of teeth．She had no idea 10 teeth these are．The problem is how the old men could find their own teeth．
