听录音,然后回答以下问题。
Why did Mr. Gilbert telephone Dr.
Millington?
While John Gilbert was
in hospital, he asked his doctor to tell him
whether his operation had been
successful, but the doctor refused to do
so. The following day, the patient
asked for a bedside telephone. When
he
was alone, he telephoned the hospital exchange and
asked for Doctor
Millington. When the
doctor answered the phone, Mr. Gilbert said he was
inquiring about a certain patient, a
Mr. John Gilbert. He asked if Mr.
Gilbert's operation had been successful
and the doctor told him that it
had
been. He then asked when Mr. Gilbert would be
allowed to go home and
the doctor told
him that he would have to stay in hospital for
another
two weeks. Then Dr. Millington
asked the caller if he was a relative of
the patient. 'No,' the patient
answered, 'I am Mr. John Gilbert.'
