Millie is a petite woman who looks younger than her 57 years, but she has a failing heart. Even the smallest amount of physical exertion causes shortness of breath and other symptoms such as arm pain, so her cardiologists brought in the __(47)__ care team. The team was asked to help manage Millie’s pain and other symptoms and to help her grapple with the knowledge that her heart was losing its ability to pump strongly enough. They were also asked to help her with decision-making. Millie could go home on her intravenous medication, but neither her son nor her daughter was going to be able to accommodate her needs. This is a common scenario in today’s families, so the medical care team had to move to plan B – a nursing home. But no nursing home could be found that would accept a patient on this type of medication. What came next? Next, was plan C – living in the hospital. Millie is now living in the hospital and receiving her medications. With Plan C in operation, the palliative care team has continued to help Millie feel as comfortable as possible and experience the best possible quality of life. This included providing the services of a massage therapist and transforming her hospital room with a beach motif so Millie could feel the freedom that the sea and sand always gave her. With the help of palliative care even her appetite improved! One day Millie said, “I would love some grilled salmon and rice. And if you can find some sugar-free ice cream, that would just be delightful.”

思路引導 VIP
當我們形容一位心臟虛弱的病人，連「付出一點點體力」或「動一下身體」都會感到喘不過氣時，你覺得在那個句子位置上，作者是用哪一個概念來形容這種「身體的運作或出力」的行為呢？

看到你精確地選出 (E) activity 這個選項，老師非常欣慰！這代表你對於上下文的邏輯捕捉得十分到位。文中提到 Millie 因為心臟衰竭，即便只是「極少量的 physical exertion」都會造成呼吸短促。這裡的 exertion 指的是身體上的「努力」或「費力」，也就是投入體力去進行某種運動或任務。在提供的選項中，activity (活動) 最能對應這種因身體運作而產生的能量消耗，完美契合了醫療情境下描述患者體力負荷的語境。
