At least they expect their blood pressure and temperature to be measured. However, as recently as two hundred years ago, a doctors treatment depended on talking with patients. In general, the communication between doctors and their patients was the most important part of medical methods. The modem age of medicine began with the stethoscope, an instrument for listening to patients heart beat and breathing. Before that, a doctor did not touch a patient. In fact, there was no such thing as a medical examination. The stethoscope (听诊器)and all other medical instruments-had a serious effect, on the practice of medicine. Doctors became better at finding the medical problems. More lives were saved. At the same time, doctors gave less importance to the communication between patients and doctors. Some doctors actually stopped talking to their patients. It is easy to understand why some sick people thought themselves as broken machines. 41. A stethoscope can be used to_. A. check health conditions B. cure some illness C. measure temperature D. treat heart disease 42. Doctors gave less importance to the communication between patients and doctors mainly because_.

When he found he could jump a little higher than most students, he decided that jumping over a high bar would be his specialty.Tim continued his learning interest in history which included serious college study, and a Masters degree. He is now a university professor at a small university in Los Angeles. In the United States there are many schools that have history departments.

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”51. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understanding B. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; common D. hopeful and helpful; careless52. According to the context we can guess that a genius is _ while an idiot is _.A. a normal person; a funny person B. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded person D. a famous person; an ordinary person53. A person _ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are clever B. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachers D. born with a good brain and putting it into active use54. It is better for parents _.A. to praise and encourage their children more often B. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to do D. to give their children as much help as possible55. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their childrens growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.短文填空。（共10分；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 One morning, I was waiting at the bus stop, worried about _56_ (be) late for school.
