UNIT6What does it feel like to help dying patients through their final days? Experience it through the eyes of hospice nurse Jill Campbell, who does her job with grace, compassion, and gratitude.1.Outside, it's noisy on this busy block of row houses in Baltimore. But inside one tidy living room, all is quiet except for the sound of a woman's raspy breathing. The patient is huddled in an easy chair under a handmade pink-and-blue afghan, a knit cap on her head and booties on her feet. She has trouble staying warm these days. Her cancer has returned with a vengeance and she has only a few weeks to life. Hospice nurse Jill Campbell kneels down beside her patient, listens to her breathing, and then checks her blood pressure. Campbell has already hauled in oxygen tanks, showed family members how to work them, organized the medicine, and assessed how her patient has been eating and sleeping.2.But now is a moment to connect one-on-one. Campbell wraps her hands aro und the woman’s hands and rubs them together to warm them. She looks into her face. “are you feeling a little better?” she asks softly.3.Getting to know her patients and helping them through the toughest time of their lives is what Campbell, 43, appreciates most about being a hospice nurse. “I don’t know of another position where you can do more for people,” she says.4.Her patients have all been told that they have six months or less to live. Rather than continue with often-difficult or painful treatments that probably won’t extend their lives, they have decided to stop trying for a cure. Instead, with the help of hospice care, they’ll focus on comfort and on living whatever they have left of their lives to the fullest ---usually in their own home.5.Being able to die at home is a major part of the appeal of hospice, but patients and family members may not see it that way at first. “A lot of people still view hospice as giving up and letting the disease in,” says Campbell. That’s why the decision to c all in hospice care can be an incredibly difficult one for a family to make. Once they do, though, most patients and their families soon understand the value of having a team of dedicated professionals---including social workers, health aides, chaplains, and nurses---work together to provide not only physical but also emotional and spiritual support. 帮助即将离世的患者度过最后的时光会是怎样的感受呢？让我们借助吉尔·坎贝尔的所见经历这一切吧。

第六单元数学Text A应用数学的新风向菲利普·J·戴维斯请将以下句子补充完整，“这是一个_______的时代？”你会怎么填？每个时代的作家不仅会在空格处填下自己的时代，还会选择过去的某个时代。

1947年，诗人W.H.奥登曾经写下，这是一个“焦虑的时代”。

大约在1970年，拥有占星信仰的作词人认为这是“宝瓶座的时代”，充满爱与人类的善意。

而最近，心理医生丹尼尔·弗里曼写下这是一个“偏执的时代”，到处充满了怀疑与监视器。

我们对这个问题的回答，取决于我们所经历的事情。

我认为，这是一个计算机的时代，或者更加严格地说，这是一个数学化的时代。

计算机占据主导地位，引领着这个时代的运行机制，而在每一个计算机程序中都会存在某种数学结构。

在当前这个时代，应用数学化给我们每个人都带来或好或坏或一般的影响。

而这些影响都需要一段时间才会显现。

如今数学的应用范围之广，以至于不只在一个科系里存在数学授课。

CAD/CAM （计算机辅助设计/计算机辅助制造）已经被运用到牙医学之中。

那么，牙医学的发展是否需要工程学的才能呢？工程学是否也要教授牙医技术？应用数学家或者计算机科学家的基本训练课程应该有哪些呢？这确实需要人们思考。

在我的职业生涯中，有相当一段时间是在所谓的“应用数学的传统科系”度过的。

这里的“传统”指的是这个科系强调的是作为物理现象模型的数学，或者在较小的程度上，通过数据来为社会现象塑造模型。

“传统”这个词也可以体现在这个科系中所教授的专业课程上。

例如，在我任教的布朗大学，应用数学系的研究生课程包括生物物理学模型，基因组学，运筹学，推论统计学，动力系统，以及流体动力学。

这种设置反映了半个世纪以来的变化，因为我们的科系曾是非常有名的固体力学研究中心，研究弹力，可塑性，流变学等等。

而“传统”这个词也可以体现在以下著名的词形变化序列中：描述预测比较再次修补描述但是在另外一种应用数学中运用的是另外一种模型：规定采用监管与社会评估重新制定规定此处有配定式数学的一些简单的例子，有只含数字的，也有非常复杂的系统：●高速公路上的速度限制●特殊职业的法定退休年龄●足球得分系统●决定大学权势等级的运算法则●用以决定抵押贷款实施的老的“分数系统”●美利坚合众国总统选举系统●国家税务系统●国家及国际金融系统类似的例子不胜枚举。

他决定造这样一座房子。

In his mind’s eye, he could see a beautiful house beside the river. He decided tobuild such a house.Practice:在我心目中，她仍然是上次那个我见到过的小女孩。

4.prompt: v. 促进,推动,引起cause or bring about an action or feelingDerivation: prompt n.→ prompt a.→promptly ad.e.g.The Times article prompted him to call a meeting of the staff.My choice was prompted by a number of considerations.5.expatriate: 移居国外v.6.refuel: 补给燃料v.(1) supply a vehicle with more fuele.g.The authorities agreed to refuel the plane.(2) take on a fresh supply of knowledge, information, etc.e.g.In a society of intense competition, people have to refuel every year.7.twinge: (生理或心理上的)剧痛,刺痛n.(1) If you feel a twinge of an unpleasant emotion, you suddenly feel it.e.g.John felt a twinge of fear when he saw the officer approaching.(2) A twinge is a sudden, sharp pain.e.g.I feel a twinge in my back now and again.8.t urn … to:Paragraph 4-99.be exposed to:面临…受到…处于…作用下暴露在…下to subject or allow to besubjected to an action, influence, or condition. If you are exposed to something dangerous or unpleasant, you are put in a situation in which it might harm you.Derivation: expose v.→exposure n.e.g.Poor John was exposed to the wind and rain.The film was damaged after it was exposed to light. 曝光之后，这个胶片就损坏了。

Unit 6：Death and JusticeHow Capital Punishment Affirms LifeBy Edward I. Koch死亡与司法死刑如何肯定生命Edward I. Koch st December a man named Robert Lee Willie, who had been convicted of raping and murdering an eighteen-year-old woman, was executed in the Louisiana state prison. In a statement issued several minutes before his death, Mr. Willie said: “Killing people is wrong… It makes no difference whether it’s citizens, countries, or governments. Killing is wrong.” Two weeks later in South Carolina, an admitt ed killer named Joseph Carl Shaw was put to death for murdering two teenagers. In an appeal to the governor for clemency, Mr. Shaw wrote: “Killing was wrong when I did it. Killing was wrong when you do it. I hope you have the courage and moral strength to stop the killing.”去年12月，一个名叫罗伯特.李.威利的罪犯在路易斯安那州的监狱中被处决，罪名是强奸和谋杀一名18岁的女子。
