    Relieving the Pain

    "Exercise may be the best treatment of chronic pain,"say doctors at a new clinic for dealing with pain.
    "People with chronic pain need to stop lying around,go out more,and start exercising."The instinctive reac-
    tion to acute pain is to stop moving and to try to protect the source of pain.But it seems that this is often not
    productive,especially in the case of back pain.Back pain,after headaches and tiredness,has become the
    third most common reason for people to visit their doctors.Painful backs now account for millions of days off
    work.
    Lumbar（腰部的）pains are partly the price humans pay for taking their forelimbs off the ground , but
    they are made worse by a sedentary（久坐不动的）lifestyle. Lack of exercise slowly decreases the flexibility
    and strength of muscles,so that it is more difficult to take pressure off the site of pain.Exercise is essential.
    It releases endorphins（内啡肤）,the body's " feel-good " chemicals , which are natural painkillers. In fact,
    these are so important that researchers are now looking for drugs that can maintain a comfortable level of en-
    dorphins in the body.
    Most people who go to a family doctor complaining of pain are prescribed pain-killing drugs rather than
    exercise.Since finding the cause of backache is not so easy,doctors frequently do not know the precise cause
    of the discomfort,and as the pain continues,sufferers end up taking stronger doses or a series of different
    drugs."It's crazy,"says Dr. Brasseur,a therapist at the International Association for the Study of Pain.
    "Some of them are taking different drugs prescribed by different doctors.I've just seen a patient who was tak-
    ing two drugs which turned out to be the same thing under different names."
    A generation of new pain clinics now operates on the basis that drugs are best avoided.Once patients
    have undergone the initial physical and psychological check up,their medication is cut down as much as pos-
    sible.Taking patients off drugs also prepares them for physical activity.
    In some pain-relief clinics,patients begin the day with muscle contraction and relaxation exercises,fol-
    lowed by an hour on exercise bikes. Later in the day , they practice tai chi（太极）,self-defense , and deep
    thought. This compares with an average of two-and-a-half hours' physiotherapy（理疗）a week in a traditional
    hospital program."The idea is to strengthen and to increase long-lasting energy,flexibility,and confidence,"
    explains Bill Wiles,a consultant pain doctor in Liverpool."Patients undergoing this therapy get back to work
    and resume healthy active lifestyles much sooner than those subjected to more conservative treatment."

    Doctors often use drugs such as endorphins to treat patients.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    Music Used as a Healing Therapy
    1 .Music has long been used to treat patients suffering from different problems.In 400 BC,its healing properties were documented by the ancient Greeks. More recently,in both world wars in the last century, medical workers used music therapy（疗法）with people suf-fering from trauma（外伤）.Currently, it is used as a treatment for many diseases, such as cancer,and it has also been used with patients with long-term pain and learning disabilities.
    2 .There is growing evidence that music can caused physical changes to the body which can im-prove our health. In the Welcome Trust study,which took place over three years at the Chelsea and Westminster hospital in London,patients were asked to listen to musical perform-ances. As a result,it was found that stress levels were significantly reduced,recovery times were improved,and fewer drugs were needed.
    3. These very positive results are partly due to general well-being（良好的健康状况）.It is already accepted that when people feel happy and have a positive approach to life,they are more likely to feel better and recover from disease quickly. Music increases this feeling of joy and adds to the recovery process.
    4 .However,not all these benefits can be attributed to an increase in general well-being. Music has other effects which have not yet been understood. According to Professor Robert-son,a scientist and musician,some effects of music are mysterious and are,therefore,being investigated further. It has been suggested that the sounds and rhythms of music help stimu-late the brain and send electrical messages to the muscles.
    5 .Science,however,demands facts and hard evidence. Many in the medical profession have not yet recognized the healing benefits of music,since reports have been based mainly on various stories of evidence. These new studies could provide proof to doctors that music is a suitable treatment for many conditions. One day doctors may even “prescribe”（开处方） music,but that could be a long time in the future.

    Many doctors don't believe that music can treat diseases because______.
    A: recover from disease quickly
    B: there is not enough hard evidence
    C: use their minds actively
    D: it improves general well-being
    E: listen to musical performances
    F: it brings many other benefits

    答案：B
    解析：
    文章第一段第一句是主题句，意为：长期以来，音乐都被用于治疗不同疾病 的患者。C项History of music therapy（音乐疗法的历史）与主题句意思相符，故选C。
    文章第二段第一句是主题句，意为：越来越多的证据表明，音乐能引起一些 身体变化，这些变化可以改善我们的健康状况。E项Positive Physical Changes Caused by Music（音乐引起的积极的身体变化）与主题句意思相符，故选E。
    文章第三段主要讲这些正面结果的部分原因来自于总体幸福感。当人们感到高兴并且生活态度积极时，人们自身的感觉会更好，并且能很快地从疾病中恢复过来，而音 乐能增加这样的愉悦感。B项Increase in General Well-Being（提高总体幸福感）符合本段主题，故选B。
    文章第四段主要讲，音乐疗法的益处并不都来自于幸福感的提升，音乐的其他作用到现在还没有被弄明白，罗伯森教授说，音乐的一些作用是很神秘的。D项Other Mysterious Effects of Music（音乐的其他神秘作用）符合本段主题，故选D。
    题干意为“研究人员已经发现，当病人收听音乐表演的时候，他们的压力水平会下降。”文章第二段最后一句指出，病人的压力水平明显减低，恢复的时间缩短，需要的药物减少。E项listen to musical performances（收听音乐表演）与原句意思相符，故选E。
    题干意为“音乐能够治疗患者的部分原因是因为它能提高总体幸福感。”文章第三段第一句指出，这些正面结果的部分原因来自于总体幸福感。最后一句指出，音乐能增强人的愉悦感，加快恢复进度。D项it improves general well-being（它能提高总体幸福感）与原句意思相符，故选D。
    题干意为“那些总是看到生活中积极一面的人更有可能从疾病中很快地恢复过来。”文章第三段第二句指出，当人们感到高兴以及生活态度积极时，人们自身的感觉会更好，并且能很快地从疾病中恢复过来，A项recover from disease quickly（从疾病中快速地恢复过来）与原句意思相符，故选A。
    题干意为“很多医生不相信音乐可以治疗疾病是因为没有真凭实据。”文章第五段前两句指出，然而科学需要真凭实据，医学界的很多人并不认可音乐的治疗作用，因为相关报告主要是基于各种不同的故事。B项there is not enough hard evidence（没有真凭实据）与原句意思相符，故选B。

    The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them．To the surprise of his passenger,the ear did not slow down．Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put on his brakes at the last moment．The car stopped just in time.
    "Sorry,I didn't notice the light．I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining."
    This strange story is quite true．About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way;women are luckier--only about one in two hundred suffers from color blindness.
    In some cases,a man may not be able to see deep red．He may think that red,orange and yellow are all the same as green.
    People often like one color more than others．Blue is the color of the sky and sea．Green makes us think of fields and trees．Red is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger．Black is the color of night．In the dark we cannot see what is around us so we are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color.

    Text l How,when and where death happens has changed over the past century.As late as 1990 half of deaths worldwide were caused by chronic diseases;in 2015 the share was two-thirds.Most deaths in rich countries follow years of uneven deterioration.Roughly two-thirds happen in a hospital or nursing home.They often come after a ctimax of desperate treatment.Such passionate intervention can be agonising for all concerned.These medicalised deaths do not seem to be what people want.Polls find that most people in good health hope that,when the time comes,they will die at home.They want to die free from pain,at peace,and surrounded by loved ones for whom they are not a burden.But some deaths are unavoidably miserable.Not everyone will be in a condition to toast death's imminence with champagne,as Anton Chekhov did.What people say they will want while they are well may change as the end nears.Dying at home is less appealing if all the medical kit is at the hospital.A treatment that is unbearable in the imagination can seem like the lesser of two evils when the alternative is death.Some patients will want to fight until all hope is lost.But too often patients receive drastic treatment in spite of their dying wishes~by default,when doctors do"everything possible",as they have been trained to,without talking through people's preferences or ensuring that the prediction is clearly understood.The legalisation of doctor-assisted dying has been called for,so that mentally fit,terminally ill patients can be helped to end their lives if that is their wish.But the right to die is just one part of better care at the end of life.The evidence suggests that most people want this option,but that few would,in the end,choose to exercise it.To give people the death they say they want,medicine should take some simple steps.More palliative care is needed.Providing it earlier in the course of advanced cancer alongside the usual treatments turns out not only to reduce suffering,but to prolong life,too.Most doctors enter medicine to help people delay death,not to talk about its inevitability.But talk they must.Medicare,America's public health scheme for the over-65s,has recently started paying doctors for in-depth conversations with terminally ill patients;other national health-care systems,and insurers,should follow.Cost is not an obstacle,since informed,engaged patients will be less likely to want pointless procedures.Fewer doctors may be sued,as poor communication is a common theme in malpractice claims.

    Acupuncture一Old Chinese Medicine

    For more than 4,000 years people in Asia have used acupuncture to treat illnesses.________ (46)Today acupuncture is also very popular in Europe,America and Australia.
    Acupuncture can control pain and sickness.It can also be used if you have a headache or back pain.Some doctors use acupuncture along with regular treatments for asthma,high blood pressure or stress.________(47)Some people think that acupuncture can treat depression and even help people to stop smoking. Many patients feel more energy after a treatment,while others may feel more relaxed.
    People who practice acupuncture must take courses to learn how to do it correctly._________(48)
    During treatment the patient lies down and needles are stuck into certain points of the body. There are hundreds of possible points and each one has a certain effect on the body._________(49) For example you stick a needle into the hand to treat problems with your stomach.
    Acupuncture needles are made of metal and about as thick as a human hair. They normally go less than one cm into the skin.When they are in the skin the acupuncturist may twist them or send electricity through them.The patients rest for a short time and then the needles are removed.
    Acupuncture normally doesn't hurt. There is also a milder form of acupuncture called acupressure where you don't need needles.Doctors use their fingers to press the points of the body.
    Chinese medicine teaches us that all acupuncture points are located along pathways called meridians.Each of these meridians carries energy,which the Chinese call "qi" to certain points of the body.If this "qi" gets blocked from an area the person will get sick or feel pain.Sticking needles into the correct points can help "qi" flow again and make the person well.
    Doctors today are not sure how acupuncture really works.They have not found any proof that these pathways of energy really exist.Some think that needles cause the body to produce pain killing substances.________(50)Some also say that acupuncture only works because patients believe in it.

    _________（50）
    A:In many places,especially outside of Asia,only doctors are allowed to perform acupuncture.
    B:The earliest written record of acupuncture is found in the Huangdi Neijing.
    C:Doctors have even used acupuncture to stop pain during an operation.
    D:The points can also be very far away from the place of pain.
    E:Others think that the needles block pain signals that travel along the nerves to the brain.
    F: It is an old Chinese form of healing in which your skin is pierced with thin needles to relieve pain.

    答案：E
    解析：
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。第一句泛泛介绍针灸，接着就对针灸做了一个较为详细的定义：这种古老的中国疗法采用针刺进皮肤的方式来缓解疼痛。让对针灸不了解的人对于“什么是针灸”有个较为具体的概念。因此选F。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。第二段主要介绍针灸的疗效，前一句中说：有些医生采用针灸结合常规方法来治疗哮喘、高血压或者是精神紧张。后一句说：有人认为针灸可以治疗抑郁症，甚至可以帮助人们戒烟。由此推断中间这句依然讲的是针灸在医学治疗领域的作用。因此选C，有些医生甚至使用针灸来实现手术过程中的止疼。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。该段主要讲的是针灸师的行医资格。因此选A，在很多地方尤其是亚洲以外的地方，只有医生才能够进行针灸治疗。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。下一句：例如你会将针扎入手部来治疗胃部的毛病。可以推断这个例子是为了说明前面的论断，即D选项：这些穴位有可能离疼痛的位置很远。
    本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解。本段主要讲医生们依然不知道针灸产生疗效的科学原理是什么，人们纷纷进行推测，前一句和后一句中都出现some，因此介于二者中间的这句应该也是关于这个疗效原理的推理，即E选项：其他人则认为针会阻止疼痛信号沿着神经抵达大脑。并且some和others形成一个句式：有些人······其他人······

    Music Used as a Healing Therapy
    1 .Music has long been used to treat patients suffering from different problems.In 400 BC,its healing properties were documented by the ancient Greeks. More recently,in both world wars in the last century, medical workers used music therapy（疗法）with people suf-fering from trauma（外伤）.Currently, it is used as a treatment for many diseases, such as cancer,and it has also been used with patients with long-term pain and learning disabilities.
    2 .There is growing evidence that music can caused physical changes to the body which can im-prove our health. In the Welcome Trust study,which took place over three years at the Chelsea and Westminster hospital in London,patients were asked to listen to musical perform-ances. As a result,it was found that stress levels were significantly reduced,recovery times were improved,and fewer drugs were needed.
    3. These very positive results are partly due to general well-being（良好的健康状况）.It is already accepted that when people feel happy and have a positive approach to life,they are more likely to feel better and recover from disease quickly. Music increases this feeling of joy and adds to the recovery process.
    4 .However,not all these benefits can be attributed to an increase in general well-being. Music has other effects which have not yet been understood.

  • 第16题：

    The traffic lights were red when the driver reached them．To the surprise of his passenger,the ear did not slow down．Unexpectedly the passenger was thrown forward in the vehicle as the driver put on his brakes at the last moment．The car stopped just in time.
    "Sorry,I didn't notice the light．I thought it was green until I saw that it was the top light which was shining."
    This strange story is quite true．About ten men in every hundred are color blind in some way;women are luckier--only about one in two hundred suffers from color blindness.
    In some cases,a man may not be able to see deep red．He may think that red,orange and yellow are all the same as green.
    People often like one color more than others．Blue is the color of the sky and sea．Green makes us think of fields and trees．Red is the color of blood and makes some people think of danger．Black is the color of night．In the dark we cannot see what is around us so we are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color.

    Among the traffic lights,red light is placed__.

    A.at the bottom
    B.in the middle
    C.at the top
    D.below the green light

    答案：C

    Text l How,when and where death happens has changed over the past century.As late as 1990 half of deaths worldwide were caused by chronic diseases;in 2015 the share was two-thirds.Most deaths in rich countries follow years of uneven deterioration.Roughly two-thirds happen in a hospital or nursing home.They often come after a ctimax of desperate treatment.Such passionate intervention can be agonising for all concerned.These medicalised deaths do not seem to be what people want.Polls find that most people in good health hope that,when the time comes,they will die at home.They want to die free from pain,at peace,and surrounded by loved ones for whom they are not a burden.But some deaths are unavoidably miserable.Not everyone will be in a condition to toast death's imminence with champagne,as Anton Chekhov did.What people say they will want while they are well may change as the end nears.Dying at home is less appealing if all the medical kit is at the hospital.A treatment that is unbearable in the imagination can seem like the lesser of two evils when the alternative is death.Some patients will want to fight until all hope is lost.But too often patients receive drastic treatment in spite of their dying wishes~by default,when doctors do"everything possible",as they have been trained to,without talking through people's preferences or ensuring that the prediction is clearly understood.The legalisation of doctor-assisted dying has been called for,so that mentally fit,terminally ill patients can be helped to end their lives if that is their wish.But the right to die is just one part of better care at the end of life.The evidence suggests that most people want this option,but that few would,in the end,choose to exercise it.To give people the death they say they want,medicine should take some simple steps.More palliative care is needed.Providing it earlier in the course of advanced cancer alongside the usual treatments turns out not only to reduce suffering,but to prolong life,too.Most doctors enter medicine to help people delay death,not to talk about its inevitability.But talk they must.Medicare,America's public health scheme for the over-65s,has recently started paying doctors for in-depth conversations with terminally ill patients;other national health-care systems,and insurers,should follow.Cost is not an obstacle,since informed,engaged patients will be less likely to want pointless procedures.Fewer doctors may be sued,as poor communication is a common theme in malpractice claims.
    A ceniury ago,death was characterized as being_____

    A.quick
    B.slow
    C.medicalised
    D.peaceful

    答案：A
    解析：
    [信息锁定]第一段首句总括：一个世纪以来，死亡的方式、时间及地点都发生了变化。随后各句具体解释变化的具体内容：全球一半、甚至三分之二的死者都因慢性病致死，富裕国家的死者多半历经多年不规则的衰竭过程，三分之二的死者在医院或疗养院离世前都接受过一次强过一次的绝望治疗。由此可见，一个世纪以来的死亡更为“长期而缓慢”、“死干医院或疗养院”，借此可反推过去一个世纪里，死亡应该具有“短暂、突然、死于家中”的特征，故A.正确。[解题技巧]B.为一个世纪以来死亡特征；C.源自第二段②句lhese medicalised deaths，借其回指功能可知它实指一个世纪以来的死亡特征．D.源自第二段④句at peace，而该句实质以当前人们愿望“愿安详离去”反衬医疗化死亡的”痛苦”，但并不能由此推知一个世纪以前的死亡就是“安详的”，因为其后⑤句明显指出了“有些死亡是不可避免地要遭受痛苦”。

  • 第24题：

    问答题
    Some people think that parents should plan their children's leisure time carefully. Others believe that children should decide for themselves how to spend their free time. Which opinion do you agree? Write a composition of about 400 words to state your view.

    正确答案：
    Childhood is a decisive period in the process of one's growth. Therefore, many people think that parents should carefully plan not only their children's school education but also their spare time. Other people, however, argue that children should have the freedom to plan their own extracurricular life. On balance, I would side with those parents who respect children's freedom and independence.
    If children have the freedom to make decisions on how to spend their spare time and develop their interests, they will gradually form a sense of responsibility and become more capable in the world. Take myself as a good example. My parents are like good teachers and helpful friends in my life. As I remember, they never excessively interfered with my life and always left enough freedom to me so that I could embark upon what I liked to do in my spare time. They quite understood that my weekdays were occupied with a heavy workload, and that only in my spare time I could have a change of pace. Meanwhile, although mutual understanding and tolerance were an important part of my childhood life, in no way does it mean that they spoiled me. They were austere teachers when I made mistakes, and helpful friends when I came across difficulties. Owing to their understanding, tolerance, guidance, and above all, love, I have grown up to be a person of self-confidence, optimism, and independence, ready to meet any challenges in my life. Without the free family environment that my parents carefully designed for me, I wouldn't have lived such a happy life.
    On the contrary, some parents expect too much of their children, depriving them of all their independence and freedom. These parents would rather sacrifice their children's interests and happiness for nothing but good scores, thus resulting in serious misunderstanding between parents and children. Some parents even went so far as to plan their children's schedule, filling every minute with study task. In this ease, children are deprived of happiness because they are bound hand and foot by endless homework, numerous exams and boring evening or weekend classes. Furthermore, having no freedom to plan their own life, these children are more likely to become introvert, heavily dependent on their parents when they grow up. This will definitely affect their growth. For one thing, since they have no opportunity to develop their independent thinking and explore their potential, they will find it very difficult to adjust themselves to the competitive society. For another, confining them in an ivory tower will make it hard for them to communicate with others. This will affect their career development in the future because the communication between people plays a major role in the workplace, and is one of the most important elements in achieving career success. Obviously, parents' excessive interference with children's after-school life, if carried to the extreme, can cause serious damage to both their happy childhood and their career in the future.
    To sum up, I believe that parents should leave enough freedom and privacy to their children with a view to cultivating their character. As long as parents allow their children the necessary freedom accompanied by careful guidance, their children will grow up to be independent, responsible and successful.
