9、Next of kinson, Jeremy Reading Part 1Questions 1 5l Read the following text and the list of headings.l Choose a heading from the list A-F that best fits the meaning of each numbered part of the text (1-5)l The first paragraph is not numbered.l Mark the correct letter A-F on your answer sheet.Example

10、: 0 Improve the results of the medical experiment Answer: A. Research about intestinal gas B. Remain healthy while making dietary changesC. Medications for the relief of gas D. Necessity for eliminating excessive intestinal gas E. Avoid certain foods to eliminate gas F. Change the manner of eating o

11、r drinking What can I do about intestinal gas?Intestinal gas is no laughing matter, unless you happen to be a pre-adolescent boy, in which case its just about the funniest thing on the face of the planet. For those who live in the adult world, however, a reduction in the dreaded bloating, belching,

12、and flatulence(肠胃胀气) inherent to all humans would be considered a major blessing. Unfortunately, intestinal gas is simply a result of digestion. If you eat, you will have gas. In fact, youll have quite a lot of it.1._According to research done at the prestigious Mayo Clinic, a typical adult will pro

13、duce somewhere between one and four pints (2.20 to 8.80 cup MET) of intestinal gas in any given twenty-four hour period. That translates into passing said gas between fourteen and twenty-three times per day. If you chew gum, drink lots of soda, rush through meals, or smoke, you can figure on being a

14、t the high end of that scale.2._No one can eliminate gas, but steps can be taken to reduce it. Mostly, this is accomplished via dietary changes. Cheese, ice cream, milk, and other foods high in lactose are contributing factors to gas, as are foods containing fructose(果糖). These would include onions,

15、 wheat, and almost all soft drinks. Sorbitol, a sugar alcohol found in peaches, apples, pears, candy, and chewing gum are major offenders, as are raffinose-heavy vegetables like Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and beans.3._Obviously, most of these foods are essential to ones general health and well bein

16、g. Still, to reduce intestinal gas, you can alter your diet and still remain healthy. For instance, an enzyme known as lactase(乳糖酶) is necessary for the digestion of milk and milk products. If a person is lacking in lactase, she can cut back on the milk and take calcium supplements. Also, some store

17、s sell milk products that are infused with extra lactase.4._Another method consists simply of changing the manner in which you eat or drink. Quite a lot of intestinal gas is worsened by our air intake when swallowing. Eat more slowly, dont smoke, and refrain from sucking on candy or chewing gum. Som

18、e of the most prominent players in the build-up of intestinal gas are carbonated beverages. If you do drink them, dont drink them through a straw. By sipping on a straw your air intake rises dramatically, and you are adding fuel to the fire. 5._Finally, there are many over-the-counter products that

19、work very well for the relief of excess intestinal gas. Contrary to popular belief, those heavily advertised pills containing antacids and simethicone (二甲基硅油) dont really have any impact on the amount of intestinal gas one produces. They do pull gas bubbles together, however, and may allow you to qu

20、ietly belch your gas into the atmosphere.Part 2Questions 6 10l There are 5 short paragraphs below. l For each paragraph put the italicized sentence into one of the three positions marked (A), (B), and (C).l Mark the correct letter on your answer sheet.Example:0 C The Red Cross is an international or

21、ganization.6 From your very first moment with the patient, be alert to any clues that might reveal the nature of his condition.To help plan a newly admitted patients treatment, the physician depends on the admitting nurses ability to collect meaningful data about that patient. (A) A skilled nurse ne

22、eds excellent powers of observation, and a systematic approach to information gathering. (B) For example, you might observe that he has an abnormal skin condition (such as a rash, or bruises); that he is breathing with difficulty; that he seems confused or agitated; or that his abdomen is distended.

23、 (C) To tie these observations together and help determine what is significant, youll need to interview the patient.7 The blood used in a transfusion must work with your blood type.Every person has one of the following blood types: A, B, AB, or O. (A) Also, every person's blood is either Rh-posi

24、tive or Rh-negative. (B) So, if you have type A blood, it's either A positive or A negative. (C) If it doesn't, antibodies (proteins) in your blood attack the new blood and make you sick. 8 Normally, urine contains a small number of cells and other debris shed from the inside of the urinary

25、tract.The urine may be examined under a microscope to check for the presence of red and white blood cells, crystals, and casts. (A) The acidity of urine is measured by dipstick. (B) Sediment in urine can be examined under a microscope to provide information about a possible kidney or urinary tract d

26、isorder. (C) A person who has a kidney or urinary tract disorder usually sheds more cells, which form sediment if urine is allowed to settle.9 In addition, researchers can synthesize chemical compounds.(A)Plants, animals, and other organisms, along with minerals, can all yield compounds that may be

27、used as medications. (B)This includes synthetic versions of natural compounds along with entirely new drugs. (C)In the lab, analysis of potential medications includes meticulous work to break down their components and understand how they function.10 To prevent catching cold sores, however, you shoul

28、d follow the same precautions you would to avoid catching any viral infection.Cold sores are highly contagious, which makes them rather easy to catch from someone else. (A) When around someone with cold sores, be sure to wash your hands and to avoid touching your face. (B) You should also avoid shar

29、ing utensils, towels, and cups with a person with cold sores. (C) It is best to avoid these practices at all times, because a person with the cold sores virus may be contagious even if he or she is not currently experiencing an obvious outbreak. Part 3Questions 11-15l The following paragraphs are gi

30、ven in a wrong order.l For questions 11-15, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G to fill in each numbered blank.l The first and the last paragraphs have been placed for you.l Mark the correct letter A G on your answer sheet.Example Ord

31、er: G11 B 12 A 13 D 14 C 15 E FA Some of the torn ligaments(韧带) most difficult to repair are those around the knees. Torn ligaments in the knees can seriously impair walking and may as well, end a successful career for professional athletes. Knee replacement is often the preferred method of repair,

32、and though the technology has improved, it still does not provide the benefits of healthy ligament tissue surrounding the knee. B As promising as this research is, stem cell technology is still in its infancy, and it may be quite some time before stem cells would be routinely used to repair torn lig

33、aments. C Frequently, a minor tear is addressed by resting torn ligaments, using icepacks to reduce swelling, and elevating the area where torn ligaments are present. If rest, elevation and icing do not produce a total cure, then surgery may be considered to repair significant tearing.D Recent studi

34、es into stem cell technology are a promising alternative. Certain stem cells, called tenocytes, when injected near the source of an injury, may actually begin to rebuild the tissues that form both tendons and ligaments. Studies in rat populations showed that such injected cells would migrate to the

35、area of torn ligaments and begin to actively work on rebuilding the area.E Studies on this new technology, published in 2006, suggest a completely non-invasive way to repair torn ligaments that has a far greater chance of total recovery of function to affected areas. As well, injection of stem cells

36、 poses less risk to the body than traditional surgery. Injection of stem cells does not require anesthetics and may ultimately replace surgical techniques for repair.F Repairing torn ligaments have posed a significant challenge for physicians in the past. Previous repairs, including grafting tissue,

37、 or placing artificial prostheses to replace ligaments, were relatively unsuccessful. Often patients would have to undergo multiple surgeries to maintain a repair, or would have to have prostheses replaced. G Another common type of repair for torn ligaments uses a graft from the patients body or a c

38、adaver, called an allograph, which is then connected to the tear site. In some cases, minor tears may not be surgically addressed. What we commonly call sprains and strains are usually the result of stretched or torn ligaments or tendons. Order: F11 12 13 14 15 BPart 4Questions 16-22l Read the follo

43、r “Right” or “Wrong”, choose “Not Mentioned”.l For each sentence 23 30, mark one letter A C on your answer sheet.Example0This article is about first aid for a stroke.ARightBWrongCNot mentioned Answer:How do I give first aid for a stroke?If someone experiences sudden numbness in the body, sudden conf

44、usion, sudden trouble seeing, sudden dizziness or sudden loss of coordination, there is a chance that he or she has just suffered a stroke. To give first aid for a stroke, you should survey the victim for signs of a stroke, contact emergency medical personnel as soon as possible and treat the patien

45、t until the medical team arrives.A quick and simple survey of the persons face, arms and speech, as well as a timely response to this medical emergency, is critical. Observe the face of the person, and check to see whether one side droops when he or she smiles. When the person raises his or her arms

46、, observe whether one is lower than the other. Determine whether the person is capable of correctly repeating an easy sentence without slurring or other speech problems. If the person exhibits the signs of a stroke, contact local emergency medical personnel, tell them what you know about the person&

47、#39;s condition and symptoms, then begin first aid for a stroke immediately. If the victim is unconscious, the first step in first aid for a stroke should be to assess his or her breathing and circulation. When breathing and pulse are not present, you should begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)

48、 (心肺复苏). An unconscious but breathing victim should be placed on his or her left side with the chin extended so that he or she can breathe easier and secretions such as saliva (唾液) or vomit can roll out if necessary. It might be a natural response to shake the unconscious victim in order to rouse hi

49、m or her, but this should be avoided because it might rupture the blood vessels.First aid for a stroke in a conscious patient should be handled slightly differently. After contacting emergency services, place the person on his or her back with the head and shoulders slightly raised, so that blood pr

50、essure to the head is reduced. Avoid giving the person anything to eat or drink, because he or she might choke. To save time when emergency help arrives, try to begin gathering information such as the person's name, age, medication being taken and other relevant information related to the person
