第1题：
George Annas would probably agree that doctors should be punished if they ______.
A) manage their patients incompetently
B) give patients more medicine than needed
C ) reduce drug dosages for their patients
D) prolong the needless suffering of the patients
正确答案：D
答案：D
[试题分析] 文章细节事实题。
[详细解答] 题干要求考生回答乔治?安纳斯认为在以下哪一种情况下，医生应该受到制裁。安纳斯所关注的是病人病痛能否得到有效处理，为解决这个问题他认为医生可以采取任何必要的措施和手段。在最后一段，他明确指出，对病人不必要和可预见的痛苦漠不关心的医生应该受到惩罚。因此D选项“延长病人不必要的痛苦”是正确答案。A选项“不能胜任管理病人的工作”太宽泛，文中具体指的是病人痛苦的死亡可被认为是医生不能胜任管理的表现。文章第五段提到，安纳斯认为只要医生开的药物是用于合法的医疗目的，就没有违法，所以B选项“给病人的药物超过所需”和c选项“减少给病人的药物剂量”可排除。

Depression
Although the stigma（耻辱）once associated with mental illness has gradually gone away in recent years,most of the Americans who have clinical depression still don't get treated for it partly because many are too embarrassed to go to a psychologist. In fact,the majority of depressed people who seek professional help turn first not to a psychologist but to their primary care physician.
But do regular doctors really know how to identify depression?A large new scientific review suggests they don't. In a review of 41 previous studies,the authors found that general practitioners make frequent mistakes,missing true cases of depression about half the time and incorrectly diagnosing it in 19%of healthy people.
Alex Mitchell,Amol Vaze and Sanjay Rao of Leicester General Hospital in the U.K. estimate that about 1 in 5 people in developed nations will experience depression in their lifetime.That means that among a general patient population of 100,about 20 will develop the condition,but the typical doctor will find it in only 10 of those who have it. And among the 80 healthy people,the doctor will incorrectly identify depression in 15.
This is significant because depression can make the patient and his or her family weak.Depression also carries an enormous social burden,leading to missed work days,loss of productivity and increases in health-care spending. Further,those misdiagnosed with depression may end up being prescribed medicine that not only costs a lot but can have serious side effects.
The various studies that Mitchell,Vaze and Rao reviewed used different methods to verify whether doctors had missed depression in their patients.Virtually all the studies pointed to the same conclusion:general physicians aren't very good at recognizing the most common mental illness in the world.
Why?One reason is that the typical doctor visit is quite short,usually no longer than 15 minutes.It's hard for patients to open up about their symptoms during that brief period.Doctors should spend more time or schedule follow-up appointments with patients they suspect have depression, which would dramatically increase the rate of accurate diagnoses.Why do general physicians often fail to recognize depression?
A:The diagnoses are made too hastily.
B:General physicians don't treat their patients seriously.
C:Patients are reluctant to tell their symptoms.
D:General physicians are not patient enough.答案：A解析：本题是细节考查题。题干是：大多数抑郁症患者拒绝看心理医生，部分原因是什么？选D的依据是第一段第一句话："…most of the Americans who have clinical depression still don't get treated for it partly because many are too embarrassed to go to a psychologist.”但大多数有临床抑郁症的美国人仍然没有得到医治，部分原因是他们对此觉得很尴尬所以不愿去看心理医生。选项D的意思是他们将看心理医生与尴尬的感受联系在一起，与原文相符。

本题是细节考查题。题干是：第三段第三行的“will develop the condition" 意思是什么？ 选C的依据是第三段第一句：" Alex Mitchell , Amol Vaze and Sanjay Rao of Leicester General Hospital in the UK estimate that about 1 in 5 people in developed nations will experience depression in their lifetime.”来自英国斯特综合医院的艾力克斯·米契尔、阿莫尔·维兹与桑杰·饶估计在发达国家，大约每5个人当中就有1个人在其一生中会出现抑郁症状。题干中的condition就是指本句的抑郁症状，而develop the condition指的是患上抑郁症，选项C 的意思是病人受抑郁症的折磨，与原文相符。
本题是细节考查题。题干是：根据这篇文章，抑郁症可导致什么情况？选 C的依据是第四段第二句和第三句：" Depression also carries an enormous social burden , leading to missed work days,loss of productivity and increases in health-care spending.Further,those misdiagnosed with depression may end up being prescribed medicine that not only costs a lot but can have serious side effects.”抑郁症也会给社会带来巨大负担，导致人们无法上班，生产力下降以及医疗支出增加。此外，被误诊为抑郁症可能最终被开一些药，不仅花很多钱，而且可能有很严重的副作用。选项C的意思是大笔的医疗费，与原文相符。
本题是细节推理题。题干是：为什么普通内科医生不能诊断出抑郁症？选A的依据是最后一段第二句：" It's hard for patients to open up about their symptoms during that brief period.”这么短的时间内，病人很难讲述他们的症状。选项A的意思是医生的诊断做得太匆忙了，与原文相符。 -

58. [C]意为：医师为帮助生命垂危病人摆脱痛苦而采取的致死措施。 本题是一道词义题，但是解题更多的需要涉及到文章中心词，本文第一段从澳大利亚通过的一个关于安乐死法案的新闻入手，下文全部在讨论各界对该法案的反应，同时在文章最后作者以实例表明了自己对安乐死的观点，由此我们可以确定文章的中心是关于安乐死的。而考研文章的任何一道阅读题目的命制都是和文章中心紧密相连的。据此我们可以推断出答案为C。
A意为：医师对垂危病人的同情。
B 医师对垂死病人采取的过激医疗手段。
D 医师为挽救垂危病人的生命而采取的善意的治疗。 另外“euthanasia” 所在句和下面的 In the US and Canada, where the right to die movement is gathering strength, observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling.处于平衡位置，由此我们可以判断“euthanasia”和下句的 the right to die 大意相同,答案可
以锁定 C，四个选项中只有该选项与死亡相关。 -

第三篇
Fight against the Side Effects of Cancer Treatment
Once the hard decisions have been made about how to treat a patient's cancer,doctors face an even more difficult question:how do you help patients deal with the side effects of treatment?
The issue is a challenge for physicians because,unlike with cancer therapies,there are few scientific studies on the most effective ways to handle the side effects一including common symptoms such as poor sleep or fatigue. But addressing these seemingly common complications（并发症）is crucial for helping patients maintain their regular lifestyle,which in turn may even encourage the success of their cancer treatment.
That's why Dr. Karen Mustian of the University of Rochester Medical Center decided to put a favorite practice of cancer survivors一yoga一to the test.In a paper she will present at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (肿瘤学）(ASCO) annual meeting in June, Mustian designed a standardized program based on hatha yoga一a slow-moving form of the discipline一and tested its effect on improving the quality of life for cancer survivors.
Called YOCAS,the four-week program involved sessions of hatha yoga twice a week for 75 minutes each,in combination with breathing exercises and meditation（冥想）.Among the 410 participants,who were divided into yoga and traditional follow一up care groups,those practicing yoga recorded nearly double the improvement in sleep quality and reduction of fatigue compared to those not practicing yoga. They also reported better quality of life overall,Mustian says.
For cancer physicians,the findings will be a welcome addition to their discussions with patients."Many patients ask about complementary (互补的)therapies, whether they are exercise or meditation or yoga," says Dr. Douglas Blayney,medical director of the comprehensive cancer center at University of Michigan and president of ASCO."I often don't know what to tell them because there isn't lot of science on these complementary therapies. Here is a scientific study showing benefit,so at least we can have some assurance in telling women that there is a yoga program,here are its characteristics and it has been shown to have beneficial effects on sleep and quality of life."Why is it significant to help patients deal with the side effects of the cancer treatment?
A:Because it is the most effective way to cure cancer.
B:Because it could shorten the time of the treatment.
C:Because it enables them to do exercise regularly.
D:Because it increases the possibility of their complete recovery.答案：D解析：本题是细节考查题。题干是：在治疗癌症的医生制定治疗计划之后什么问题困扰着他们？选B的依据是第一段：" Once the hard decisions have been made about how to treat a patient's cancer,doctors face an even more difficult question:how do you help patients deal with the side effects of treatment?”医生一旦艰难地为癌症患者确定了治疗方案，就会面对一个更加棘手的问题：如何帮助患者应对因治疗而产生的副作用？选项B的意思是如何有效应对副作用问题，与原文相符。
本题是细节考查题。题干是：帮助癌症病人应对治疗中的副作用的意义在哪儿？选D的依据是第二段最后一句：" But addressing these seemingly common complications （并发症）is crucial for helping patients maintain their regular lifestyle , which in turn may even en-courage the success of their cancer treatment.”而解决这些看似平常的并发症非常重要，它能帮助患者维持正常的生活，继而甚至能够增大癌症治愈的成功率。选项D的意思是因为这样能增加他们完全恢复的概率，与原文相符。
本题是细节考查题。题干是：Mustian设计了一个标准化程序的目的是什么？选A的依据是第三段最后一句："Mustian designed a standardized program based on hatha yoga一a slow-moving form of the discipline一and tested its effect on improving the quality of life for cancer survivors.”马斯蒂安依据哈萨瑜伽——一种缓慢运动的训练形式——设计了一套标准程序并测试其在改善癌症幸存者生活质量上的效果。选项A的意思是观察瑜伽是否能降低癌症治疗的副作用，与原文相符。
本题是细节推理题。题干是：Mustian所做的实验表明了什么？选B的依据是第四段最后两句："those practicing yoga recorded nearly double the improvement in sleep quality and reduction of fatigue compared to shoes not practicing yoga.They also reported better quality of life overall, Mustian says.”练瑜伽的人睡眠质量的改善程度几乎是不练瑜伽人的两倍，疲乏症也大大减轻。马斯蒂安说，报告显示他们的生活质量也总体得到了改善。选项B 的意思是练习瑜伽的确有助于癌症患者改善其生活质量。
本题是细节推理题。题干是：Douglas Blayney博士对YOCAS这个程序的看法是怎样的？选A的依据是最后一段最后一句："Here is a scientific study showing benefit, so at least we can have some assurance in telling women that there is a yoga program,here are its characteristics and it has been shown to have beneficial effects on sleep and quality of life.”这儿有一项科学研究显示了瑜伽的益处，所以至少我们可以有些把握告诉女患者，有一个瑜伽计划，它有这些特点，经证明它能有效提高睡眠和生活质量。选项C的意思是有益的，与原文相符。 -

第18题：
问答题Directions: Whether to tell the truth to a dying person has long been a controversial problem. Describe the two opposite opinions, and give your comment at the end. Your composition should be at least 160 words.正确答案：
Whether it is right or not to tell a person with incurable disease about the truth has long been a controversial issue. And both sides have their reasons.
Some people hold the opinion that it is the patients' human right to be informed of the real condition of his illness. Only when he knows the fact, could he cooperate with the doctor well. He should know what kind of treatment he is receiving and what medicine he is taking, which is also the customers' right. Under such condition, he could communicate better with the doctors. And even if he is in the last days, he could seize the time to fulfill some wills.
However, other people claim that the illness should be kept as a secret to the patient. Telling the dangerous situation to the patient can only make things worse. This may cause hurt to the patient both physically and psychologically. And the latter cannot be healed easily.
