第三篇
Acceptance of Chronic Illness
Holding on to hope may not make patients happier as they deal with chronic illnesses or diseases.
accorcting to a new study by University of Michigan Health System researchers.
"Hope is an important part of happiness,"said Peter A. Ubel, M. D. director of the U-M Center for
Behavioral and Decision Sciences in Medicine and one of the authors of the happily hopeless study,"but
there's a dark side of hope.Sometimes,if hope makes people put off getting on with their life,it can get in the
way of happiness."
The results showed that people do not adapt well to situations if they are believed to be short-term.Ubel
and his co-authors一both from U-M and Carnegie Mellon University一studied patients who had new
colostomies:their colons were removed and they had to have bowel movements in a pouch that lay outside
their body.
At the time they received their colostomy,some patients were told that the colostomy was reversible一that
they would undergo a second operation to reconnect their bowels after several months.Others were told that the
colostomy was permanent and that they would never have normal bowel function again.The second group一the
one without hope一reported being happier over the next six months than those with reversible colostomies.
"We think they were happier because they got on with their life.They realized the cards they were dealt,
and recognized that they had no choice but to play with those cards,"said Ubel,who is also a professor in the
Department of Internal Medicine.
"The other group was waiting for their colostomy to be reversed,"he added."They contrasted their current
life with the life they hoped to lead,and didn't make the best of their current situation."
"Hopeful messages may not be in the best interests of the patient and may interfere with the patient's
emotional adaptation,"Ubel said."I don't think we should take hope away.But I think we have to be careful
about building up people's hope so much that they put off living their life."

参考答案
参考解析
解析:根据第二段最后一句“Sometimes,if hope makes people put off getting on with their life,it can get in the way of happiness.”可知,有时候,如果希望使人们不能适应自己的生活,那么希望 就会阻碍幸福。也就是说,当人们能适应自己的生活时,就会更幸福。第五段也提到“We think they were happier because they got on with their life.”因此应选D。
根据第三段中“…studied patients who had new colostomies(结肠造口手术)…”可知B项 是正确答案。
根据第五段中“We think they were happier because they got on with their life.”和第六段 可知A项是正确答案。
根据第六段中“The other group was waiting for their colostomy to be reversed”和“They contrasted their current life with the life they hoped to lead and didn't make the best of their current situation.”可知,不幸福的原因是B。
本文的中心意思是希望不一定都能带来幸福,有时在面对现实时,适应不幸才会更幸 福。A项“Giving up hope means giving up happiness.”和C项“Hope is what makes people move on.”都与本文主旨不符。D项“Hope frequently gets in the way of happiness.”中frequently使用 不当,故该命题是错误的。B项“Letting go of hope is at times a better choice.”符合本文主题。第5部分:补全短文

Promising Resnlts from Cancer StudyA new experimental vaccine(疫苗)has shown promising results in the fight against lung cancer.In a small Texas-based study,a vaccine developed by scientists at Baylor University Medical Centre in Dallas,USA,cured lung cancer in some patients and slowed the progress of the disease in others.Researchers have reported encouraging findings from this small study.Forty一three patients suffering from lung cancer were involved in these trials.Ten of these patients were in the early stages and thirty-three in tho advanced stages of the disease.They were injected with the vaccine every two weeks for three months,and were carefully monitored for three years.In three of the patients in the advanced stages of cancer,the disease disappeared and in the others,it did not spread for five to twenty-four months.However,no great difference was seen in the patients in the early stages of the illness.This new vaccine uses the patient's own immune system.It is made specifically for each patient and is injected into the arm or leg.It stimulates(刺激)the body's immune system, which then recognizes that the cancer cells are harmful,and attacks and destroys them.The vaccine could be effective against other forms of cancer.It offers great hope for the treatment of cancer in general,although further studies are needed before such treatment can be widely used.All the patients were from Dallas.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

资料:Poor health is not only damaging to employees, it is detrimental to businesses." Corporations pay a heavy cost for stress-related illnesses, such as hypertension, gastrointestinal problems, and substance abuse." says Rubin.
"Up to 90% of all doctor visits in the United States are for stress-related illnesses, "according to Dr. Mehet Oz of the Dr. Oz Show.
Chronic stress has a variety of negative side effects such as weight gain, lower immune system, increased risk of disease, and fatigue. Employers should encourage employees to reduce stress levels and improve their overall health.

Once employees know about health topics such as stress, exercising, and healthy eating. start a health related competition such as the Biggest Loser. This offers employees motivation and a support system. If the entire office is involved, employees will be more likely to accomplish their goals.
To help employees make positive lifestyle changes, have a kitchen equipped with a refrigerator and microwave to prepare healthy amounts of exercise throughout the day are beneficial.
According to Dr. Oz, "Exercise releases serotonin and dopamine. the feel-good hormones that become blocked during stress. Walking stairs is a great workout. One study showed that walking stairs 7 minutes a day reduces the risk of heart disease by two-thirds."
If possible, offer a company discount on gym memberships. This will encourage to make positive choices outside of the office and to exercise regularly.
Which of the following statement is not true?A.In companies where good health is promoted, employees are more likely to be loyal and productive.
B.Offering seminars, starting competitions and offering discount on gym memberships will be costly, so companies should not pay much attention to these activities.
C.Exercise plays an important role of building a strong body.
D.Chronic stress in the workplace might be harmful to the company's interest.

S. to Start $3.2 Billion Child Health Study in JanuaryA study that will cost $3.2 billion and last more than two decades to track the health of 100,000 U.S.children from before birth to age 21 will be launched in January,U.S.health officials said on Friday.Officials from the U.S. government's National Institutes of Health said they hope the study,to be conducted at 105 locations throughout the United States,can help identify early-life influences that affect later development,with the goal of learning new ways to treat or prevent illness.The study will examine hereditary(遗传的)and environmental factors such as exposure to certain chemicals that affect health.Researchers will collect genetic and biological samples from people in the study as well as samples from the homes of the women and their babies including air,water,dust and materials used to construct their residences,the NIH said.Officials said more than $200 million has been spent already and the study is projected to cost $3.2 billion."We anticipate that in the long term(从长远说来),what we learn from the study will result in a significant savings in the nation's health care costs,"Dr. Duane Alexander,who heads the NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development,told reporters.The study will begin in January when the University of North Carolina and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York start signing up(使报名从事)pregnant women whose babies will then be followed to age 21.Some of the early findings will be about factors behind pre-term birth(早产),which has become more common in recent years,according to Dr. Peter Scheidt of the NIH,who heads the study.The people taking part will be from rural,urban and suburban areas,from all income and educational levels and from all racial groups,the NIH said.The aim of the study is to find new ways to_______.A:conduct research B:track public healthC:prevent or treat illness D:speed up development

Promising Results From Cancer StudyA new experimental vaccine(疫苗)has shown promising results in the fight against lung cancer. In a small Texas-based study,a vaccine developed by scientists at Baylor University Medical Centre in Dallas, USA,cured lung cancer in some patients and slowed the progress of the disease in others.Researchers have reported encouraging findings from this small study.Forty-three patients suffering from lung cancer were involved in these trials.Ten of these patients were in the early stages and thirty-three in the advanced stages of the disease.They were injected with the vaccine every two weeks for three months, and were carefully monitored for three years.In three of the patients in the advanced stages of cancer,the disease disappeared and in the others,it did not spread for five to twenty-four months.However,no great difference was seen in the patients in the early stages of the illness.This new vaccine uses the patient's own immune system. It is made specifically for each patient and is injected into the arm or leg. It stimulates the body's immune system,which then recognizes that the cancer cells are harmful,and attacks and destroys them.The vaccine could be effective against other forms of cancer. It offers great hope for the treatment of cancer.in general,although further studies are needed before such treatment can be widely used. The vaccine may be useful for treating other cancers.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
