问题     The American medical school is now well along in the second
century of its history. It began, but for many years continued to【S1】______
exist, as a supplement for the apprenticeship system still in vogue【S2】______
during the 17th and 18th centuries. The likely youth of this period,【S3】______
destined to a medical career, was at an early age indentured to some
reputable practitioner, whom his service was successively menial,【S4】______
pharmaceutical, and professional; he ran his master’s errands,
washed the bottles, mixed the drugs, spread the plasters, and
finally, while the stipulated term drew toward its close, actually【S5】______
took a part in the daily practice of his preceptor—bleeding his【S6】______
patients, pulling their teeth, and obeying hurried summons in the
night. The quality of the training varied within large limits with the
capacity and conscientiousness of the master. Ambitious spirits
sought, therefore, a more assured and inspired discipline.【S7】______
Beginning early in the 18th century, having served their time at
home, they resorted in rapidly increasing numbers in the hospitals【S8】______
and lecture halls of Leyden, Paris, London, and Edinburgh. The
difficulty of the undertaking proved admirably selective; for the
students who crossed the Atlantic gave a good account of
themselves. Return to their native land, they sought opportunities to【S9】______
share with their less fortunate or less adventurous fellows the rich
experience gained as they "walked the hospitals" of the old world.
The voices of the great masters of that day thus reechoed in the
recent western wilderness. High scientific and professional ideals
impelled the youthful enthusiasts, who bore their lighting torches【S10】______
safely back across the waters. [br] 【S10】
选项
答案 lighting—lighted
解析 非谓语动词误用。该句意思是“……他们手持着点亮的火把安全地……。”动词light和touch之间是动宾关系，应该用过去分词形式，故将lighting改为lighted.
