Dr. Meyer Schwartz described such a case in one of his medical reports.     Dr. Schwartz was on duty at a hospital one morning a few days after Christmas when a man came in complaining only of “blueness to his face of one hour’s duration.” He reported no other signs of illness, no itching, dizziness, or shortness of breath, and no history of heart disease or bleeding disorders. It was only 10:15 a.m,. and all the patient had done that day was shower, shave, and dress. So far, his hands and body were still their normal color, but both sides of his face had distinctly blue marks up to the cheekbones. Knowing that blue skin might indicate a lack of oxygen in the blood or an undesirable drug reaction, Dr. Schwartz checked the patient thoroughly. Finding nothing else out of the ordinary, he sent the blue man home. At 5:30 a.m. the man called Dr. Schwartz to report that he had “washed his face and the blue came off.” He had received blue towels as Christmas gifts and had used one of them that morning for the first time.
36.The blueness on the patient’s face was caused by __________.
(A) a blue washcloth
(B) a serious drug reaction
(C) shortage of oxygen in the blood
(D) a disease the doctor could not detect
