          Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first
    person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize
    winner.
         Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies' two daughters. Along with nine
    other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her
    mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of S?vign? in
    Paris.
         Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics.
    When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities (设备) to
    help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in
    military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognised in the form of a Military's
    Medal by the French government.  
         In 1918, Irene became her mother's assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic
    Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in

    years later.
         Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel
    Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia
    because of her work with radioactivity(辐射能). Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17,
    1956.(www.yygrammar.com)

         There are three branches of medicine. One is called "doctor medicine" or "scientific medicine".
    Scientific doctors try to observe sickness,  look for logical pattern,  and then find out how the human
    body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed
    to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is successful,  in the ancient this approach(方
    法) probably did not cure many patients.
         The second kind of medicine is called "natural cures" or "folk medicine",  in which less educated
    people try to cure sickness with various herbs(中草药). These folk healers also use observation and
    logic,  but they are not so aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work,  
    and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished(兴起) long before the development of scientific
    medicine and was more successful in ancient times.
         The third kind is called "health spas" or "faith healing". Sometimes this may be as simple as touching
    the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times,  a magician may make you a magic charm,  
    or say a spell(咒语),  to cure you. Some religious groups organize healing shrines(圣坛) for the sick.
    In these places people rest,  get plenty of sleep,  eat healthy food,  drink water instead of wine,  and
    exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests(牧师) and pray to the gods. If you are feeling
    depressed or you have been working too hard,  going to these places may be just the right thing to
    make you feel better.
    1. Doctor medicine_________.
    A. has a longer history than folk medicine
    B. has been practiced for around 2, 400 years
    C. bases its treatments on observation and logic
    D. was very successful in curing sicknesses in ancient times
    2. According to the passage,  which of the following is NOT used in health spas?
    A. Magic power            
    B. Various herbs
    C. Religious faith        
    D. A healthy life style
    3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
    A. Folk healers choose different herbs to cure diseases without any sound basis.
    B. People who practice folk medicine need lots of formal education on herbs.
    C.The success of folk medicine led to the development of doctor medicine.
    D.Natural cures worked better than scientific medicine in ancient times.
    4. The author's primary purpose in this passage is to_______________.
    A. describe different types of medicine
    B. argue for the importance of medicine in health care
    C.show the important role religion plays in medical treatments
    D.compare the educational background of three different types of patients

         Doctors say anger can be an very harmful emotion(情绪)unless you learn how to deal with it. They
    warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease,  stomach problems,  headaches,  emotional problems
    and possibly cancer.
         Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a
    calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger,  losing control of themselves. But other people repress
    their anger
    . They cannot or will not express it.
         For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than
    expressing it. They said that when a person is angry,  the brain gives off the same hormones(激素)that
    are produced during tense situations. They speed the heart rate,  raise blood pressure,  or sugar into the
    blood and narrow the blood vessels(脉管)to the interstices(空隙). In general,  the person feels excited
    and ready to act.
         Doctors said that repressing these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to
    many medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent these problems by letting the anger out
    by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors held a different view. They said that people who
    express anger repeatedly and violently did become,  in fact,  more and not less angry.They said this, too,
    can cause medical problems.
         Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that
    those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease,  and they believe that
    those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
         Doctors say the solution(解决办法)is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to
    admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger,  and then decide if the cause is
    serious. If it is,  they say: "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down
    and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably. "
    1. What does the phrase" repress anger" mean in Paragraph 2?
    A. Forget one's anger.                    
    B. Express one's anger openly.
    C. Treat one's anger calmly and reasonably.
    D. Keep one's anger inside.
    2. When you get angry,  which of the following should you do for the good of health?
    A. Repressing the anger.          
    B. Expressing the anger.
    C. Learning how to make a deal.  
    D. Treating the anger properly.
    3. What is the central topic of this passage about?
    A. The different ways of dealing with anger.
    B. The dangers of anger and the solution.
    C. New medical discoveries.
    D. The argument between the new and old views about anger.

         Many students eat their breakfasts on the way to school or in the dinning-room.  But some of them
    don't really know how to eat well when eating out.  
          Here is some important advice.  The first is to eat less fast food.  The most obvious harm of eating
    too much fast food is weight gaining because of too much fat.  Young people and adults are at risk of
    disease related to weight.  Too much fast food can drag your body down.  French fries, for example,
    were recently found to contain much more acrylamide(丙烯酰胺) than other food.  This may cause
    cancer.  Actually, deep fried food all contains acrylamide.  So don't eat it too often.  
         Soda is another thing you should watch out for.  Cokes and other sodas contain a lot of sugar and
    can slow down a person's calcium absorption, so it's best to drink as little soda as possible.  
         Food in the dinning-room may not be as tasty as fast food, but it's actually easier to make healthy
    choices.  Human bodies need variety.  You can have a dinner that balances lean proteins, vitamins and
    complex carbohydrates(碳水化合物).  In other words, a meal with fish or meat, vegetables and some
    bread or rice will provide you with most nutrients that the body needs.  
         Some snacks, on the other hand, will help keep you going until your next big meal.  It is natural for
    teenagers, especially boys, to feel hungry during school time.  Don't forget to take some foods, like
    whole-grain biscuits or low-fat milk in your school bag.
