specialists in big cities.telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. some health care systems in the united states now offer virtual urgent care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home.diana rae is a nurse educator in the western state of washington. she recently showed how virtual urgent care works. she used an ipad tablet and skype the video chat service.doctor green has the patient describe her symptoms, then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. doctor green decides that the problem is a silence infection. for medicine, he prescribes an antibiotic. he says about 3 out of 4 patients have health problems

company called carena to add virtual urgent care by skype or phone. carena is one of several companies doing this kind of work around the country. but a company official says state rules have not kept progress with developments in telemedicine. the workers who provide virtual urgent care must be separately licensed in each state where the company does business. for now, that means carena doctors

does it feel like you just cant stop your emotions defeating you completely when you are in the middle of a heated discussion with someone, and you particularly want to make clear strong points and express yourself effectively?many people think that someone who bursts into tears during an argument or a quarrel is trying to handle the situation by bringing emotion into it. but the person who wells up tears during some heated discussion is not in control of those tears. they just cant control blushing（脸红）or stop themselves breaking out in a sweat if they feel nervous.the body has a number of such automatic responses that switch on without your decision that you want to respond like this. these instinctive behaviors have evolved over millions of years to protect us. basically, our brains make associations between things that seem similar, which is important for automatic responses. for example, a snake is a potentially dangerous creature, and you can see why it might be useful if, whenever you see a snake, you will run like crazy. and you can see why it might still be useful if you see a flexible stick and get the same reaction.however, these very simple associations can sometimes be really unhelpful. its not useful to try to calmly argue an important point with someone, and suddenly find tears running down your cheeks. tears can generally make you seem weak, or foolish, and less credible. whos going to take what you say seriously if youre crying?but if these reactions are not under your control, what can you do about it? the good news is that although you cant control automatic reactions directly, you can unlink unhelpful associations. and that means that an unwanted reaction wont get started, and so wont happen. besides, you can try the following: begin to notice a change in how you feel about previous times when you were defeated by emotion; develop a growing sense of confidence and optimism about how things will go in the future.50. according to paragraph 2, whats the authors opinion on crying? a. it is a natural response to stress. b. it should be thought highly of. c. it is harmful to peoples health. d. it is a useful way to end arguments.51. what matters when people are making some automatic responses? a. firm determination. b. great imagination. c. rich knowledge. d. different personalities.52. what can we infer from the passage? a. arguments should be avoided. b. social activities are vital for mental health. c. automatic responses dont always make a difference. d. tears can help people handle arguments more calmly.53. according to the last paragraph, in order to control automatic reactions in arguments, peoplecan try _. a. explaining strong points patiently b. ending arguments as quickly as possible c. pretending to be determined and credible d. learning to be hopeful about what will happen later54. the best title is probably _. a. overcome our fears b. avoid tears in arguments c. express our feelings clearly d. communicate with people cryingdwhen the residents of buenos aires want to change the pesos they do not trust into the dollars they do, they go to an office that acts as a front for thriving illegal exchange market.as the couriers carry their bundles of pesos around buenos aires, they pass grand buildings like the teatro colon, an opera house that opened in 1908, and the retiro railway station, completed in 1915. in the 43 years leading up to 1914, gdp had grown at an annual rate of 6%, the fastest recorded in the world. in 1914 half of buenos airess population was foreign-born. its income per head was 92% of the average of 16 rich economies.it never got better than this. its income per head is now 43% of those same 16 rich economies; it trails chile and uruguay in its own backyard.the countrys dramatic decline has long puzzled economists. “if a guy has been hit 700,000 shots its hard to work out which one of them killed him,” says rafael di tella. but three deep-lying explanations help to throw light on the countrys decline. firstly, argentina may have been rich 100 years ago but it was not modern. the second theory stresses the role of trade policy. thirdly, when it needed to change, arge
