spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars Often they relieve these experiences in nightmares Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience They hope it might reduce or possibly wipe out the effect of painful memories In November experts tested a drug on people in the US and France The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced not that the memories are wiped out They are not sure to what degree people s memories are affected The research has caused a great deal of argument Some think it is a bad idea while others support it Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after war They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories Some memories can ruin people s lives They come back to you when you don t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare They usually come with very painful emotions said Roger Pitman a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School This could relieve a lot of that suffering But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people s memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are I m not sure whether we want to wipe those memories out said Rebecca Dresser a medical ethicist 56 The passage is mainly about A a new medical invention B a new research on the pill C a way of wiping out painful memories D an argument about the research on the pill 57 The drug tested on people can A cause the brain to fix memories B stop people remembering bad experiences C prevent body producing certain chemicals D wipe out the emotional effects of memories 58 We can infer from the passage that A people doubt the effects of the pills B the pill will certainly stop people s emotional memories C taking the pill will do harm to people s physical health 6 D the pill has already been produced and used by the public in America 59 Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph A Some memories can ruin people s lives B People want to get rid of bad memories C Experiencing bad events makes us different from others D The pill will reduce people s sufferings from bad memories B Much of European train travel is about efficiency and comfort leaving and arriving on time and having a

happen overnight During the time of quitting smoking you might get into some situations driving you to smoke again Here re some ways to deal with them If you are hungry between meals food is the
