For questions 6–10, choose the best answer for each space from the list A–F for each sentence (6–10).•Mark the correct letter A–F on your answer sheet.Young Athletes: Injuries and Prevention1High profile events like the Olympics bring the hope that witnessing and celebrating dedicated athletes at the top of their game, will inspire young people to take up sport and physical activities that help them develop confidence, lead more satisfying lives, and not least, secure long-term health by reducing their risk for developing chronic illness like diabetes, obesity, cancer and cardiovascular diseases.But unfortunately, if they don't take appropriate measures, young athletes can instead, end up in pain, on a different path to poor health, due to avoidable sport injury.2According to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, which is part of the National Institutes of Health in the US, the most common sport injuries are due to accidents, poor training practices or using the wrong gear or equipment. People can also hurt themselves because they are not in shape or because they don't warm up or stretch enough. Some injury experts in the US have said they are also seeing more and more young athletes injured because of overuse and doing too much, and this may partially explain the growing numbers that drop out of sport by the eighth grade. The most common sport injuries are: knee injuries, sprains and strains, swollen muscles, Achilles tendon injuries, pain along the shin bone, and fractures and dislocations. 3Prehabilitation, is a relatively new idea in sports medicine and therapy. It is a personalized exercise program that is individually designed for athletes to help them prevent injury in their given sport. The aim of prehab is to avoid injury by compensating for the repetitive movements and stresses of regular, often daily, training. In some respects, you can view athletic training for peak performance in a sport as a form of repetitive strain, with the potential to result in injury in much the same way as computer operators can get occupational injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome and shoulder problems. With repetitive use, muscles become tight, the body develops imbalances in strength and muscle coordination. These happen naturally during activity, but because training is repetitive, they become repeatedly reinforced with each workout, unless that workout also incorporates some compensating activity, such as in a prehab routine.4To ensure the best chance of success with prehab, the athlete should start practising it before injury occurs. But unfortunately the usual route to prehab is via injury. A typical scenario is the athlete injures him or herself, goes to a sport therapist or specialist trainer for rehabilitation (rehab), and the therapist then persuades them to sign up for prehab to stop it happening again. Another way to keep prehab useful and working for the athlete, is to ensure it continually evolves with the needs and changing fitness and ability of the individual. The exercises should be progressive and re-evaluated regularly. There is also the important need to challenge and motivate the athlete, and stop them becoming bored, or habituated to the program.5 A successful prehab program is one that forms a regular part of an athlete's training routine. The therapist needs to have a detailed knowledge of the athlete's sport, theirstrengths and weaknesses, and be able to have frank, open conversations with the individual.1 Paragraph 1 _____2 Paragraph 2 _____3 Paragraph 3 _____4 Paragraph 4 _____5 Paragraph 5 _____6 If they don't take appropriate measures, young athletes can end up in pain due toavoidable __________.7 More and more young athlete injuries may partially explain the __________ that dropout of sport by the eighth grade.8 The aim of prehab is to avoid injury by compensating for the __________ andstresses of regular, often daily, training.9 The athlete injures him or herself, goes to a sport therapist or specialist trainer for__________.10 A successful prehab program should form a regular part of an athlete's __________.A extreme limitsB sport injuryC growing numbersD rehabilitationE training routineF repetitive movementsPart 2Questions 11 – 17•Read the following article about life of student doctors.•For questions 11–17, choose the answer (A, B, C or D)which you think fits best according to the text.•Mark your answers on the answer sheet.Student DoctorsIn comparison with the lives of other postgraduate students, the life of a student doctor is far from easy. Despite the heavy workload, it seems that the more you learn, the more you realize what you still need to study. As a result, it is not unusual for students to drop out. Misguided teachers attempt to simplify matters in an environment that demands the very best of its practitioners.The situation is little better in the year or two years after qualifying. Poorly paid for such long hours, many junior doctors find themselves becoming disillusioned with medicine. The more depressed they become, the more likely they are to look elsewhere for a career, wasting up to sever years of training and education. An unfortunate statistic is that of those that qualify as doctors, 18% do not remain in the profession for more than three years.The problem can be more clearly defined by considering specific examples. In New Zealand and Britain, for example, the exodus of medical graduates is leaving the remaining newly qualified doctors with responsibilities that are beyond their capacity. In statistics from 1998 over half the graduates from one medical school in New Zealand left the country immediately after qualifying, and hospitals are really beginning to feel the shortage. Certain hospitals in Auckland, for example, do not have enough staff to cover the timetable, and some of the newly qualified doctors are finding themselves on call for 48 hours straight. In Britain, the situation is equally bleak.The structure of the health service itself is the most important factor to be taken into account when considering the number of migrating British medical graduates. Junior doctors are required to take mentors, more senior doctors (often consultants), to act as supervisors. They are entrusted with the educational supervision of doctors in their first year of practice and are responsible for ensuring the application of the principles of good medical practice. However, when interviewed, slightly less than 60% of junior doctors had any positive feedback on the relationship. The remaining respondents described situations in which a consultant was accused of making unreasonable demands, bullying, being unfair, or being sexist. In more extreme cases, the consultant was portrayed as incompetent, insensitive or negligent towards patients.In New Zealand, the situation, although having essentially the same effect of fewer junior doctors, has different causes. There are two main factors which explain this mass migration of medical graduates from New Zealand. The first factor is the student loans system where a medical graduate can leave university having accumulated a loan of anything up to NZ$60,000 in the course of training. By leaving the country, such graduates have the option of at least delaying the repayment of those loans. The other reason is the long hours. The stories of working hours a week being almost in the three-figure mark are often not exaggerated, and this is a situation which is worsening the fewer junior doctors there are.11 The reasons why some student doctors don‘t want to remain in their professioninclude all the following except _________.A heavy workloadB high demand of the professionC being poorly paidD no chance for career development12 According to the passage, teachers of student doctors _________ the complexity oftheir living condition.A overestimateB underestimateC know exactlyD ignore13 For student doctors, which of the following is not true?A Medical courses are more difficult than many other postgraduate courses.B The more they learn, the more they realize what they still need to learn.C A number of graduates are not remaining in the medical field.D Once qualified, the situation for junior doctors slightly improves.14 What does the word ―exodus‖ (Line 2, in the 2nd sentence of the 3rd paragraph) mean?A Declaration.B Expression.C Departure.D Deduction.15 What is the main factor for the migrating of student doctors in Britain?A The structure of the health service.B Full work timetable.C Dissatisfaction with their mentors.D Incompetence for their work.16 According to the interview, _________ student doctors had nothing positive to sayabout their mentors.A slightly less than 60%B slightly more than 60%C slightly less than 40%D slightly more than 40%17 The root of the problem in New Zealand and Britain is _________.A essentially the sameB similarC quite differentD analogousPart 3Questions 18 – 25•Read the following article on the organization, Doctors Without Borders.•Are sentences 18–25on the next page ―Right‖ or ―Wrong‖? If there is not enough information to answer ―Right‖ or ―Wrong‖, choose ―Not Mentioned‖.•For each sentence 18–25, mark one letter A–C on your answer sheet.Doctors Without BordersDoctors Without Borders, French Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), is an international humanitarian group dedicated to providing medical care to victims of political violence or natural disasters, as well as to those who lack access to such treatment. The group was awarded the 1999 Nobel Prize for Peace.Doctors Without Borders was founded in 1971 by 10 French physicians who were dissatisfied with the neutrality of the Red Cross. The doctors believed they had the right to intervene wherever they saw a need for their assistance, rather than waiting for an invitation from the government, and they also felt they had a duty to speak out about injustice, even though it might offend the host government. In 1972 Doctors Without Borders conducted its first major relief effort, helping victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua. Other significant missions were undertaken to care for victims of fighting in Lebanon (1976), and Afghanistan (1979). Doctors Without Borders has continued to work to relieve famine, offer medical care to casualties of war, and deal with the problem of refugees in many countries throughout the world. In 2003 Doctors Without Borders was a founding partner in the organization Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative (DNDi), which works to create medicines for such diseases as malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS.Doctors Without Borders works in more than 70 countries. Headquartered in Brussels, the organization has offices in some 20 countries. It was an integral part of the emergency relief efforts in Haiti after the earthquake of 2010, though all three of the organization‘s hospitals in that country had been destroyed by the quake.In addition to providing medical assistance, Doctors Without Borders has a reputation as a highly politicized group, particularly skillful in achieving publicity for its efforts. Its vocal opposition to perceived injustice led to its expulsion from several countries.Doctors Without Borders is a neutral and impartial humanitarian organization that aims first and foremost to provide high-quality medical care to the people who need it the most. It does not promote the agenda of any country, political party, or religious faith, and, as such, endeavors to communicate its history, background, and capabilities to all parties in a given situation so that it may gain the necessary access to populations in need. ―It is saving a lot of people–children and adults–who might otherwise have died, from malnutrition or from preventable causes. There are no other agencies anywhere near here, and we are the only organization providing assistance–in terms of both health care and food–in this region. We have been doing this for years.‖18 Doctors Without Borders is a governmental organization, known for its continuousefforts in providing medical care around the world.A RightB WrongC Not Mentioned19 Doctors Without Borders believes that all people have the right to medical careregardless of race, religion, creed or political affiliation.A RightB WrongC Not Mentioned20 Doctors Without Borders was once a branch of the Red Cross, but later cut its tieswith it because of financial problems.A RightB WrongC Not Mentioned21 Doctors Without Borders was founded in Paris, France in 1971.

Five sentences have been removed from the article.•Choose from the sentences A–F the one which fits each space (26–30). There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use.•For each space (26–30), mark one letter A–F on your answer sheet.When Sadness Is a Good ThingIn the 1960s, the pharmaceutical company Sandoz marketed its new tranquilizer Serentil with ads in medical journals suggesting the drug be prescribed to ―the newcomer in town who can't make friends, the woman who can't get along with her new daughter-in-law or the executive who can't accept retirement.‖ But the FDA stopped the ads. Drugs are supposed to treat illnesses, the agency said, not the vicissitudes of living.Isn't that a quaint idea?(26)…………….But today 7% of Americans are on antidepressants (many more have tried them), and ads have touted the drugs for ordinary problems like fatigue, loneliness and sadness. Still, drug companies aren't the (sole) villain in this story. As Allan Horwitz and Jerome Wake-field point out in their incisive new book.The Loss of Sadness: How Psychiatry Transformed Normal Sorrow into Depressive Disorder, we now have a ―legal drug culture‖ built around the widely accepted idea that feeling blue is an illness.Horwitz, dean of social and behavioral sciences at Rutgers, and Wakefield, an expert on mental-illness diagnosis at New York University, agree that depression can have biological roots. (27)……………. They also point out that the human capacity to feel sad is an evolutionarily selected trait that we might not want to drug away.We've been living in an age of melancholy for at least two decades. Outpatient treatment of depression rose 300% between 1987 and 1997. But while it‘s tempting to blame our culture—fear of terrorists, too much caffeine, living by BlackBerry—there's a more straightforward explanation for the boom in dejection. In 1980 the American Psychiatric Association published a new definition of depression in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders—usually shortened to DSM—the compendium used by mental-health professionals to make diagnoses.(28)……………The much longer 1980 definition (which is still used, with slight modifications) omitted the requirement that symptoms be ―excessive‖ in proportion to cause. In fact, the revised manual said nothing about causes and listed symptoms instead.To be diagnosed with major depressive disorder today, you need have only five symptoms for two weeks, which can include such common problems as depressed mood, weight gain, insomnia, fatigue and indecisiveness. The DSM does make an exception for bereavement: if you recently lost a loved one, such symptoms are not considered disordered. But the manual doesn't make exceptions for other things that make us sad—divorce, financial stress, a life-threatening illness.Still, is there anything wrong with medicating normal sadness if you don't mind side effects? Horwitz and Wakefield take no position on this.(29)……………But the authors also note that ―loss responses are part of our biolog ical heritage‖. Nonhuman primates separated from sexual partners or peers have physiological responses that correlate with sadness, including higher levels of certain hormones. Human infants express despair to evoke sympathy from others.(30)……………It also teaches us that whatever prompted the sadness—say, getting fired because you were always late to work—is behavior to be avoided. This is a brutal economic approach to the mind, but it makes sense: we are sometimes meant to suffer emotional pain so that we will make better choices.A These sadness responses suggest sorrow is genetic and that it is useful attracting socialsupport, protecting us from aggressors.B The FDA was worried back then about an overmedicated society; in 1956, 5 % ofAmericans were on tranquilizers.C But they persuasively argue that many instances of normal sadness—the kind thatdescends after you lose a job or get dumped—are now misdiagnosed as depressive disorder.D The new definition was a radical departure from the old one, which had described―depressive neurosis‖ as ―an excessive reaction of depression due to an internal conflict or to an identifiable event such as the loss of a love object.‖E If you struggle with constipation or diarrhea, something is wrong and you are contributing tothe toxic overload and poisoning of your body.F They point out that women giving birth take painkillers even though pain is a normal part ofthe process.Part 5Questions 31 – 40•Read the following text on administering medications.•Choose the best word (A, B, C or D) for each space.•For each space 31–40, mark one letter A–D on your answer sheet.31A over B beyond C through D on32A desired B great C contrast D fast33A additive B placebo C contrary D adverse34A for B as C with D on35A as B through C against D for36A commission B omission C emissions D transmission 37A Because B Whereas C Although D Despite38A frequently B consequently C definitely D undoubtedly 39A conscious B ignoring C neglecting D aware40A refined B dominated C noticed D definedIII WritingQuestion 41●Write an essa y of about 150 words on the topic ―Should Doctors and Nurses Lie?‖ You shouldbase your essay on the clues given below.●Please write your essay on the Answer Sheet.Should Doctors and Nurses Lie?1. 医生、护士向绝症病人撒谎隐瞒病情的现象很常见2. 但有些医生护士对此持反对观点3. 你的看法METS第三级考试听力录音文本This is METS 3 Listening Test.There are four parts in the test. Parts One, Two, Three, and Four.You will hear each part twice.We will now stop for a moment before we start the test.Please ask any questions now because you must not speak during the test.Pause (10 seconds)Now, look at the instructions for Part One.Pause (3 seconds)You will hear five extracts from conversations in different clinical departments.For questions 1-5, choose from the list A-F to show which case each doctor is talking about. Use the letter only once. There is one extra letter which you do not need to use. You will hear each recording twice.Pause (3 seconds)Now we are ready to start.Pause (3 seconds)Conversation 1Hello, Mr. Hartley. Come and sit down. The tests show that it is probably a condition called chronic glomerulonephritis which has damaged the kidney. The condition is irreversible – nothing can be done to put it right at this stage I‘m afraid. You‘ve undoubtedly had it for a long time. We‘ll need to keep an eye on you. There are fortunately treatments to make up for the kidney damage.Pause (30 seconds)Conversation 2Well, the X-ray doctor found irritability and distortion of the duodenum although there was no actual ulcer visible on the X-ray. This does not necessarily mean that you have no ulcer. We have to decide the best way of treating it. There are two ways: medical and surgical. In young people we try to avoid operations and we hope that medical means will help. There is no risk attached to the operation and most patients get better after it and have no side effects. But with young people we usually persist with medical treatment.Pause (30 seconds)Conversation 3I can‘t find anything seriously wrong with you. I think this is due to the weakness of the muscle at the lower end of your gullet which is allowing acid to come back into your gullet. We‘d better do an X-ray of the stomach and gallbladder as you have this tendency in your family. We‘ll check on the blood as well. Avoid bending. The stomach should not be empty of food for too long. Try to eat little and often. I‘ll give you some medicine to take after meals. I‘ll see you in three weeks when I‘ve got the results of the X-rays and tests.Pause (30 seconds)Conversation 4Well, one of these would clear the chest in the morning. All you do is shake it and puff. One puff isusually sufficient. You must not have more than two puffs and no more for three hours. These are absolutely safe if you stick to that dose. This would help to clear your chest and before you go up a hill you could have a puff. I‘ll write to your doctor about that, shall I?Pause (30 seconds)Conversation 5It‘s difficult to say just now exactly what‘s wrong. Try to relax and keep calm. Now I would like to transfer you to the Isolated Ward. Please wait until we get the result of the blood test and the X-ray. If you are suffering from SARS indeed, you will be all right after proper treatment in most conditions, although the process may be slow.Pause (30 seconds)Now you’ll hear Part 1 again.This is the end of Part OnePause (3 seconds)Now look at Part Two.You will hear a conversation between two doctors.Are the following statements “R ight” or “W rong”? If there is not enough infor mation to answer “R ight” or “W rong”, choose “Not M entioned.”You will hear the recording twice.Pause (3 seconds)Doctor A: I am Dr. Linda Austin. I am interviewing Dr. Harry Drabkin who is the Chief of Hematology-Oncology here at the Medical University of South Carolina. Dr.Drabkin, I know that your own area of specialty is in kidney cancer, or renalcancer. How common is that cancer?Doctor B: Approximately, I would say, 35,000 to 38,000 cases in the U.S. every year. And it tends to be a fairly silent disease. It is an internal organ. It is not something thatyou feel getting bigger. Most people have fairly no symptoms with early disease.The symptoms they develop are usually late, things like back pain. Blood in theurine, I would say, probably is one of the more common things for late diseases,when the tumors are large. Many tumors today are discovered incidentallybecause of a CT scan that was done for some other reason. It is a greattechnique. It is very accurate. We are picking up more and more small tumors.Those tumors, by and large, tend to be not metastatic. So, the ones that I see,that have spread to some place else, like the lung, or bones, or liver, or someplace like that, are these late tumors. It is much like ovarian cancer in terms of notproducing symptoms until it is very late.Doctor A:So I guess one take-home point, then, is anytime one has visible blood in the urine, it certainly is time to call your doctor right away.Doctor B:Absolutely. And it doesn‘t have to be kidney cancer. It could be a bladder infection. It could be a stone in the bladder. It could be a tumor somewhere in thesystem from the bladder to the ureters, to the kidney, whatever. But the importantthing is, it should never be left alone, always should be looked at.Doctor A:You mentioned that often these tumors are picked up incidentally. The doctor may have ordered a scan for something else and sees a small tumorin the kidney that has not spread. In that case, is it a pretty simple matter ofjust operating on it?Doctor B:It is a simple matter. And the surgery these days for small tumors is pretty simple.For the most part, it can be laparoscopic-based. So, instead of having a bigincision, you have a couple of small holes in your belly where the surgeons go in,stick the scopes, fill the belly up with air and take these tumors out. People are out。

医护英语三级考试真题第一套In the realm of healthcare, communication is a pivotal element that ensures the efficacy and safety of patient care. The ability to articulate medical conditions, procedures, and prescriptions in English is not just a skill but a necessity in today's globalized world. This is particularly true in emergency situations where every second counts and clarity in communication can mean the difference between life and death.Imagine a scenario where a patient with a suspected myocardial infarction is rushed into the emergency room. The medical team must work in unison, with each member understanding their role and the condition of the patient. The attending physician calls out for an electrocardiogram (ECG) and blood tests to confirm the diagnosis. Here, the use of standardized medical English terms like 'myocardial infarction' instead of colloquial terms ensures that all healthcare professionals, regardless of their native language, understand the gravity of the situation.Moreover, when discussing the patient's condition with colleagues from around the globe, a nurse must be able to describe symptoms, medical history, and treatment plans with precision. For instance, conveying that a patient has 'hypertension' rather than simply saying 'high blood pressure' provides a more professional and accurate description of the patient's condition.In the context of pharmacology, the precise use of English is equally crucial. A pharmacist explaining the dosage of a medication will use terms like 'milligrams' and'frequency' to avoid any ambiguity. They might say, "Take 100 milligrams of this medication once every eight hours," ensuring the instructions are clear and unambiguous.Furthermore, in medical research, where findings are shared with the international community, the use of technical and scientific English is imperative. Researchers present their studies, methodologies, and results in a manner that is universally understood. This facilitates the exchange of knowledge and advances in medical science.In medical education, students are taught the importance of English proficiency. They learn anatomical terms, such as 'cardiovascular system' and 'gastrointestinal tract,' to ensure they can communicate effectively in their future careers. This education extends beyond terminology to include patient interaction, where empathetic communication is as important as clinical knowledge.In conclusion, the integration of English into medical practice is a testament to the language's role as a bridge between cultures and an essential tool for healthcare professionals worldwide. It enables seamless collaboration, enhances patient care, and contributes to the advancement of medical science. As the world continues to become more interconnected, the importance of English in healthcare will only grow, making it an indispensable part of medical education and practice. 。

The mother was still at home being interviewed by the police. The father had arrived from his place of employment to the emergency department minutes after death was pronounced and not knowing the condition of his son.[C]The child arrived in our emergency department pulseless and cold, with compressions being performed on him in the arms of the paramedic. Further history obtained by the paramedics indicated that the mother had left the infant alone in the home with two young children to watch the child, and upon her return the infant was found in bed not breathing and cold. As a medical team we simultaneously performed multiple procedures, (intubation, administration of epinephrine, cardiac compression), all to no avail. Twenty minutes after he arrived, I declared this 2-month-old child dead with a high suspicion of abuse of neglect. Everyone vacated the room almost immediately, except for the nurse, who never left the child’s bedside. I asked her why she needed to stay, and she looked at me and smiled, “why of course, to be with my patient a little bit longer.”[D]We walked slowly back to the resuscitation room. The infant, who only moments ago lay covered with blood and secretions oozing from every orifice had been transformed. The nurse had left her patient, tending to him, cleaning him, wrapping in soft blankets, and now presentingthe body to the grieving father. He seemed relieved to see his baby, not alive, surely, but at peace and thus the man could begin in the mourning process. I again left the room, tending to the busy emergency department; seeing patients somehow seemed to blunt my emotional response to what had just happened. As I listened to a resident present the next case, I saw the nurse carry the blanketed body of the child to the morgue.[E]The father and I sat with chaplain to explain what we had done for the baby. I could tell from the stunned look on his face that he knew before I finished my story that his child was dead. Despite this I said in muffled voice, “I am so sorry your child passed away.”[F]Just before dawn we received a call that an unresponsive infant was being brought by emergency medical services to our hospital. As the medical team---the paediatric resident, intern, respiratory therapist, nurse and me---prepared for the incoming patient, an eerie silence enveloped the trauma room, an event that frequently precedes a pediatric resuscitation.[G]As I reflect on this episode, I realized that our medical resuscitation of this child was futile, as has been shown in children who present to the emergency department in full cardiac arrest. But it was the compassionate work of the nurse that ultimately made the difference in how we performed our job.Or der: F→1____→2____→3____→4____→5____→APart 2Questions 6 – 20●Read the following three passages.●For questions 6-20, choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which you think fits best according tothe text.●Mark your answers on the answer sheet.Example0 Keeping a diary is for your health according to the passage.A badB goodC easierD difficultAnswer:Passage OneDiary-keeping and HealthKeeping a diary is bad for your health, say UK psychologists. They found that people who regularly keep diaries suffer from headaches, sleeplessness, digestive problems and social awkwardness more than people who don’t.These findings challenge the assumption that people find it easier to get over a traumatic experience even if they write about it.“We expected diary keepers to have more benefit, or be the same, but they were worst of,”says Elaine Duncan of the Glasgow Caledonian University. “In fact, you’re probably much better off if you don’t write anything at all,” she adds.The study, carried out with David Sheffield of Staffordshire University, was presented on Wednesday at a meeting of the British Psychological Society in Edinburgh.The pair studied 94 regular diarists and compared their health with that of 41 non-diarists. The subjects, all students at Staffordshire University, answered questions about their diary-keeping habits, and filled in a standard questionnaire.“We decided to test the idea that writing is catharti c,” says Duncan. She claims that her study is the first to investigate subjects who write of their own free will. In most other studies, volunteers are actually asked to write about traumatic experiences in a systematic way.The researchers asked the diarists recruited to say how often they made entries and for how long they had kept diaries. They were also asked if they had written about anything traumatic.Statistically, the diarists scored much worse on health measures than the non-diarists. The worst affected of all were whose who had written about trauma. “They were susceptible to headaches and the like,” says Duncan.6. According to UK psychologists, regular diarist are more likely to suffer from the followingEXCEPT .A headaches or insomniaB respiratory problemsC interpersonal problemsD digestive disorders7. The word “cathartic” (Para. 6) probably can be understood as .A awesomeB fantasticC releasingD suffering8. What is special about Duncan’s study?A The subjects were asked to write of their free will.B The subjects were asked to write in a systematic way.C The subjects were asked to say how often they made entries.D The subjects were asked if they had written down anything traumatic.9. According to Duncan’s study, who are scored worst on the health measures?.A The diarists who write of their free will.B The diarists who were students at Stafordshire University.C The diarists who had written about trauma.D The non-diarists who were susceptible to headaches.10. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A The students from Staffordshire University are asked to write diary in a systematic way.B The non-diarists were susceptible to headaches and the like so they should keep writinghabits.C The diarists can release their emotional tension through writing according to Duncan’sstudies.D People take for granted that it is easier to get over a traumatic experience if they writeabout it.Passage TwoGrowth and DevelopmentGrowth and development, considered a single process, continues throughout childhood and into adulthood. Growth is defined as a change in body size and structure; development is a change in body function.Growth and development occurs in an orderly sequence; a person must accomplish a simple developmental task before he or she can attempt another, more complex task. Most children are able to perform certain tasks at about the same age, although normal variations exist.In relation to the body, the process of growth and development follows cephalocaudal (头尾的) and proximodistal (远近的) directions. Cephalocaudal means from head to tail; babies lift their heads before they sit up; they make sounds before they walk. Proximodistal means from the center to the outside; babies roll over before they grasp small objects.Growth and development also progresses from simple to complex; the baby learns to sit before learning to walk, and to babble before learning to speak. Growth and development is inclusive and holistic, involving the entire child and family. Culture, ethnicity, and religion influence the process.All aspects of growth and development are influenced by each other, or interdependent. For example, children cannot learn to control their bowel movements (development) until their muscles are strong enough (growth) and until they can understand what is expected of them (development). Consider the interdependent process of learning to walk:•Walking is controlled by motor development.•Motor development depends on normal bone and muscle growth.•Normal growth depen ds on adequate food and energy.•The nervous system exercises overall control over the process.•Caregivers and loved ones provide the encouragement and emotional support needed for the child to progress.Heredity and environment influence child growth and development.Discussions have persisted for years, and continue today, about which element has a stronger influence or whether they are of equal importance.Hereditary characteristics are inherited from parents and are often called genetic factors. Skin color, eye color, and body build are examples of hereditary characteristics. Environment is the sum of all the conditions and factors surrounding the child. Housing, neighborhood, number of siblings, placement in sibling order, and amount of healthcare available are examples of environmental elements. A baby born into a large family may develop differently from one born into a small family. Religious practices, ethnicity, and location of birth also influence a child’s development.11. Which is a baby more likely to exhibit by following a proximodistal direction?A. Lifting head before sitting up.B. Sitting before walking.C. Rolling over before grasping objects.D. Making sounds before being able to walk.12. Concepts of growth and development include .A. growth from complex to simpleB. growth in an orderly sequenceC. growth from outside to centerD. growth from tail to head13. Which of the following is NOT a hereditary characteristic related to the concepts of growthand development?A. Body build.B. Eye color.C. Cognitive build.D. Skin color.14. Which of the following is an environmental characteristic related to the concepts of growthand development?A. Eye color.B. Number of siblings.C. Body build.D. Skin color.15. Which of the following is NOT true about growth and development?A. Growth and development include heredity, environment, and health status.B. Growth and development are influenced by each other and occur in an orderly sequence.C. Growth and development progress from simple to complex and include the child andfamily.D. Growth and development allow for accomplishment of developmental tasks at exactlythe same age.Passage ThreeWhat Happens to the Brain?Drugs are chemicals that tap into the brain’s communication system and disrupt the way nerve cells normally send, receive, and process information. There are at least two ways that drugs are able to do this: (1) by imitating the brain’s natural chemical messengers, and/or (2) by overstimulating the “reward circuit” of the brain.Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, have a similar structure to chemical messengers, called neurotransmitters, which are naturally produced by the brain. Because of this similarity, these drugs are able to “fool” the brain’s receptors and activate nerve cells to send abnormal messages.Other drugs, such as cocaine or methamphetamine, can cause the nerve cells to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters, or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals, which is needed to shut off the signal between neurons. This disruption produces a greatly amplified message that ultimately disrupts normal communication patterns.Nearly all drugs, directly or indirectly, target the brain’s reward system by flooding the circuit with dopamine(多巴胺). Dopamine is a neurotransmitter present in regions of the brain that control movement, emotion, motivation, and feelings of pleasure. The overstimulation of this system, which normally responds to natural behaviors that are linked to survival (eating, spending time with loved ones, etc.), produces euphoric effects in response to the drugs. This reaction sets in motion a pattern that “teaches” people to repeat the behavior of abusing drugs.As a person continues to abuse drugs, the brain adapts to the overwhelming surges in dopamine by producing less dopamine or by reducing the number of dopamine receptors in the reward circuit. As a result, dopamine’s impact on the reward circuit is lessened, reducing the abuser’s ability to enjoy the drugs and the th ings that previously brought pleasure. This decrease compels those addicted to drugs to keep abusing drugs in order to attempt to bring their dopamine function back to normal. And, they may now require larger amounts of the drug than they first did to achieve the dopamine high—an effect known as tolerance.Long-term abuse causes changes in other brain chemical systems and circuits as well. Glutamate(谷氨酸) is a neurotransmitter that influences the reward circuit and the ability to learn. When the optimal concentration of glutamate is altered by drug abuse, the brain attempts to compensate, which can impair cognitive function. Drugs of abuse facilitate nonconscious (conditioned) learning, which leads the user to experience uncontrollable cravings when they see a place or person they associate with the drug experience, even when the drug itself is not available. Brain imaging studies of drug-addicted individuals show changes in areas of the brain that are critical to judgment, decision-making, learning and memory, and behavior control. Together, these changes can drive an abuser to seek out and take drugs compulsively despite adverse consequences—in other words, to become addicted to drugs.16. What does “reward circuit” (Line 4, Para. 1) mean?A. Mental mechanism.B. Blood circulation.C. Feedback mechanism.D. Systemic circulation.17. What is the meaning of the italicized word “euphoric” in the fourth paragraph?A. Depressing.B. Happy.C. Stimulating.D. Controlling.18. The people will have a tolerance when he requires amounts of the drug than he firstdid.A. largerB. lesserC. identicalD. different19. How do drugs lead to changes in the structure and function of the brain?A. Releasing the special chemical substance to interrupt the system of communication.B. Acting on the special region of the brain to send the similar chemical message.C. Stimulating the communication system and/or understimulating the natural brain’sresponse.D. Imitating the natural brain’s messengers or/and overstimulating the system of brain.20. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The different mechanisms of drugs acting on the brain.B. The similar structures of drugs and neurotransmitter.C. The impact of drugs on the brain when taking drugs.D. The reasons why people are addicted to drugs.Part 3Questions 21 – 25●Read the following passage.●Are sentences 21 –25“Right” or “Wrong”? I f there is not enough information to answer“Right” or “Wrong”, choose “Doesn’t Say”.●For sentences 21 – 25, mark one letter A – C on your answer sheet.Example0 Sleep is a natural state of rest.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t SayAnswer:Understanding the Mechanisms of SleepSleep is a natural state of rest characterized by reduced body movement and decreased awareness of surroundings. Sleep is distinguished from other sleeplike states, for instance, hibernation or coma, because it is easily interrupted by external stimulation, such as a loud noise. While the mechanism of sleep has been studied for decades, sleep researchers have made enormous strides in understanding how sleep occurs in humans and other animals, and the nature of sleep disorders.In the 1950s American physiologists Eugene Aserinsky and Nathaniel Kleitman reported that periods of eye movement and twitching occur during sleep. They named these periods rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Aserinsky and Kleitman found that when subjects were awakened during REM sleep, they reported vivid dreams. Scientists believe that REM sleep is closely related to wakefulness because brain wave activity during REM sleep is marked by short, rapid wave patterns similar to brain wave activity of the waking state.Sleep characterized by little or no eye movement is called nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. During NREM sleep, breathing and heart rates slow down, and body temperature and blood pressure often decrease. When awakened from periods of NREM sleep, subjects are much less likely to report vivid, action-packed dreams. Brain wave activity during NREM sleep is dominated by large, slow waves that contrast markedly to the short, rapid wave patterns characteristic of REM sleep and the waking state.Sleep research shows that certain regions of the brain play critical roles in sleep. The brainstem, the portion of the brain just above the spinal cord, is critical in REM sleep control, while the forebrain is particularly important in NREM sleep control.REM sleep is generated by a region in the brainstem, called the pons(脑桥), and adjacentportions of the midbrain. Researchers have found that chemical stimulation of the pons will induce very long periods of REM sleep, while this area contains neurons that become most active before and during sleep. Animal studies have found that some neurons within the pons and midbrain areactive only in REM sleep while other neurons in this region are entirely inactive only during REM sleep. Together, these neurons control muscle tone and other aspects of REM sleep.The neurons most critical to NREM sleep control are in the basal forebrain, the region of the brain lying in front of the hypothalamus. Researchers have found that people who have suffered damage or injury to the neurons in the basal forebrain have difficulty falling and staying asleep. Animal studies have shown that damage or injury to this brain region can greatly reduce or even prevent REM sleep. Many of these neurons are activated by heat, which explains how a warm bath or a hot day at the beach causes sleepiness.21. Hibernation or coma has the identical states and characteristics with sleep.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t Say22. The person is dreaming during REM sleep and awakens during NREM sleep.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t Say23. The brainstem controls REM sleep while the forebrain manipulates NREM sleep.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t Say24. Sleeplessness contributes to lower mental ability and learning inefficiency.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t Say25. Any damage or injury to the neurons will result in sleep deprivation.A RightB WrongC Doesn’t SayPart 4Questions 26 – 35●Read the following passage on administration of medications.●Choose the best word (A, B, C or D) for each space.●For spaces 26 – 35, mark one letter A – D on your answer sheet.Example0 A live B living C alive D livelyAnswer:Administering MedicationsOne of t he nurse’s most routine and yet most critical responsibilities is the preparation and administration of medications. The responsibility extends (26) preparation and administration. The nurse must know how medicines act, the usual dosage, the (27) effects, and potential side effects so that he or she can evaluate the effectiveness of the medication and recognize (28) effects promptly when they occur. You will acquire this knowledge gradually as you study pharmacology and care for patients (29) varying problems.The major nursing diagnosis to keep in mind when giving medications is Risk (30) Injury. Patients can be injured by medications given in the wrong dosage, at the wrong time, or by an incorrect rout. They also can be injured by the (31) of essential medications, the administration of an incorrect medication, and by incorrect documentation. (32) this nursing diagnosis will not appear on the care plan, it applies to every situation in which a patient is being given medications.Another nursing diagnosis (33) appropriate when administering medications is Knowledge Deficit. In this case the Knowledge Deficit would be related to some aspect of the medication regimen; for example, the need to be (34) of drug interactions when taking antacids.In any healthcare facility, medications are administered according to procedures and polices (35) by that facility.26.

Discounters like Wal-Mart and Target had the greatest success, offering customers early bird specials, while major department stores and clothing chains only met modest sales goals. Online sales were also strong.“It was as expected. It wasn’t a source of great prosperity, but it was a good start,”said Nevill, a man in a US retail consulting firm. He said, “One thing we often heard was that only things marked down (降价) were selling. Consumers want a bargain, especially around the holiday.”Shoppers did seem to like the many markdowns. A lady in the State of Connecticut said, “I’ve never seen so many sales. I feel like a kid in a candy store.”Nevill estimated that discounters had a 4% gain over last year’s Thanksgiving figure, while sales at department stores and mall based clothing chains were up 2% for the weekend. However, the Thanksgiving weekend is not necessarily a good way to judge how retailers will be successful for the season. Over the past few years, the weekend accounted for less than 10% of sales.Online merchants also had a good weekend. Sales were up 61% last Friday, compared to the day after Thanksgiving a year ago.36. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, people bought a lot more than usual because .A. Wal-Mart and T arget offered birds as giftsB. shopping was the major weekend activityC. people had time to go shopping onlineD. they were allowed special discounts37. Retailers have the experience that consumers seem to .A. feel eager to buy discounted goodsB. be hungry for special kinds of goodsC. like to buy new DVD players as giftsD. be interested in major department stores38. From the context we know that Wal-Mart and Target are the names of two .A. food storesB. large retailersC. online servicesD. clothing chains39. By saying “I feel like a kid in a candy store”, the lady in Connecticut probably meansthat .A. she has difficulty choosing form such a wide variety ofgoodsB. she cannot decide whether she should buy some candyC. she is quite interested in buying candyD. she recalls her happy childhood days40. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Online sales were 61% higher than retailers’.B. Online merchants had an average weekend sale.C. Retailers lost much profit because of the discounts they offered.D. Retailers had an increase in sales in the Thanksgiving weekend.Task 2Directions:This task is the same as Task 1.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage AIn modern society, where people are always competing against each other and trying to achieve so much in their lives, almost everybody is said to be suffering from some amount of stress. But stress is not always bad. Some amount of stress in life is actually necessary as it motivates you to perform better. However, you should never allow stress to grow beyond a point where it breaks you down. Therefore, the key to leading a happy life is learning to manage stress effectively.Stress is the root cause of many illnesses. Every year millions of people lose their life because of heart disease, stroke and various forms of cancers caused primarily by overstress. Besides, stress tends to cause constipation or diarrhea which may eventually contribute to such serious conditions as ulcers(溃疡). Chronic stress is also known to weaken the immune system, which makes you prone to frequent colds and upper respiratory infections.Your attitude towards a stressful situation plays an important role in successful stress management. Usually, people who have a negative attitude will report more stress than people with a positive attitude. If you are under the pressure of stress and find it tough to manage, you can spend more time on music, painting, dancing, sports or anything that interests you. Most importantly, do not keep silent. Find someone who supports you. Somebody in your family or your friends will be willing to help you out of stress. If you are still unable to come out of stress, turn to the counselor who can help you to take control of your life and to live positively.61. According to the passage, why do people suffer from stress?[A] Because the society develops very fast.[B] Because people don’t want to get much from their work.[C] Because the competition is fierce.[D] Because people have no time to communicate.62. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the disease caused by stress?[A] Heart attack.[B] Stroke.[C] Ulcer.[D] Lung infection.63.

What can you learn from the passage?[A] Stress is bad to people’s health.[B] Stress should be wiped out completely.[C] We may lead a happy life if we manage stress effectively.[D] Because of stress people are inclined to take a pessimistic view of life.Passage BArthritis refers to the inflammation inside the joints of the body. There are many types of arthritis and in general the causes are still unknown. However, there are some risk factors for arthritis. These may include age, gender, lifestyle, and being overweight. Arthritis is the leading cause of physical disability, and one of the most frequently reported chronic conditions in the US. Those in mid-to-late life are particularly vulnerable to this disabling condition. According to the figure from the National Arthritis Data Workgroup, more than 21% of American adults (46 million) have arthritis and over 60% of arthritis patients are wome n. “The higher prevalence of arthritis in the US may be a consequence of obesity and physical inactivity, particularly in women.” noted Dr. Badley, the spokesman of the group.There are more than 100 different types of arthritis. With age, the cartilage of the joints wears down; and that causes the most common type of arthritis, osteoarthritis. The treatment may vary depending on the type of arthritis the patient has. Treatment for arthritis generally involves pain management, exercise, and relaxation. The goals of arthritis treatment are to avoid pain and further destruction of the joint. One way is to avoid pain-causing activities. When the joint becomes painful, pain-killers and anti-inflammatory medication should be taken to relieve the pain and swelling. A physical therapist may advise routine exercise to help the patient maintain joint mobility. Besides, surgery to cure the joint damage may also be an option.66. Who has the high risk of getting arthritis?[A] M en in their 50’s.[B] Women in their 20’s.[C] W omen in their 50’s.[D] M en in their 20’s.67. According to the data given, how many American arthritis patients are male?[A] About 18.5 million.[B] About 15.5 million.[C] About 10 million.[D] About 27.5 million.68.

Which of the following is NOT the way of avoiding pain?[A] Doing less physical exercises that cause pain.[B] Taking pain-killers.[C] Taking anti-inflammatory medicine.[D] Avoiding the swelling of the joint.70. What does physical therapist do?[A] Help the patient to do more exercise.[B] Operate on patient.[C] Do physical examination for patient.[D] Prepare medicine.Passage CThanks to medical and drug research, there are thousands of drugs that us lead healthier and happier lives. Antibiotics and vaccines help to cure many diseases that were formerly fatal. Medicines can lower blood pressure, treat diabetes, and reduce pain.However, a drug may be helpful or harmf ul. When people talk about the “drug problem,”they usually mean abusing legal drugs or using illegal drugs. Today, drug abuse has already become a worldwide disaster, and it occurs in almost every country. Therefore, how to stop drug abuse has already become a problem of the world’s common concern.The first step to stop drug abuse is to know why people start using drugs. The reasons people abuse drugs are as different as people are from one to another. But there seems to be one common thread: people seem to take drugs to change the way they feel. They want to feel better or feel happy or to feel nothing. Sometimes, they want to forget or to remember. People often feel better about themselves when they are under the influence of drugs. But the effects won’t last long because drugs can’t solve problems. They just postpone them. No matter how far drugs may take you, it’s always around trip. After a while, people who miss drugs may feel worse aboutthemselves, and then they may use more drugs.If someone you know is using or abusing drugs, you can help. The most important part you can play is to be there. You can let your friends know that you care. You can listen and try to solve the problems behind them and reduce their reliance on drugs. Studies of heavy abusers in the United States show that they felt unloved and unwanted. They didn’t have close friends to talk to. When you or your friends take the time to care for each other, you’re all helping to stop drug abuse. After all, what is a friend for?71. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?[A] Modern medical and drug research contribute to the growing problem of drug abuse.[B] Using drugs is one of the ways to treat some fatal diseases.[C] The problem of drug abuse has already attracted widespread attention.[D] Friend is the last person a drug abuser can turn to.72.

What is the passage mainly about?[A] The treatment of drug abuse.[B] A hot topic in drug abusing.[C] Ways to help people stop using drugs.[D] Pharmaceutical technology and drug abusing.Passage DThe Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) plays an important role in basic patient care activities in hospitals, nursing homes, and other health care settings, including home health care.Actually, the CNA nurses assist in the basic human needs of the healthcare profession. They may help to bathe patients, feed them, change diapers or beds, empty bedpans, and help patients tobathroom or toileting facilities. They are also trained to take vitals, which are measurements of pulse, blood pressure, and respiration, and are responsible for charting vitals several times during each shift. The nursing assistant also needs to be fully aware of any changes in vitals, and any significant changes in a patient’s condition, and report them to the nursing staff.In facilities where patients are hospitalized for long period of time, it is usually the nursing assistant who will help patients turn over every couple of hours so that the patients wo n’t develop bedsores. A nursing assistant may be the first responder when a patient calls for help, and the job can require some pretty heavy lifting when patients who are ill or recovering need to get up to walk around, change their clothing, or get to the bathroom. It requires some physical strength and knowledge of safe lifting tactics(方法)to work as a nursing assistant.Some nursing assistants may additionally support patients by helping them with prescribed physical or respiratory therapy exercises. In long term care facilities, nursing assistants can be trained to help exercise patients who are paralyzed or in coma. These health care workers may also work with patients in home care settings, and may be the primary caretakers for patients recovering from conditions or who have long term disabling conditions.The many jobs a nursing assistant performs free up nurses to provide care that requires greater training, like administering IV medications and starting IVs, giving appropriate medications on time, charting and noting significant changes in a patient’s health, and alerting doctors to potential problems. In many nursing centers, the higher patient-to-nurse ratio in recent years is a matter that can be somewhat resolved by more skilled nursing assistants. As the population ages and more people enter nursing homes, the certified nursing assistants are going to be more in demand than ever.76. According to the passage, when the patient calls for help, who probably might be the first to come and have a look?[A] A doctor.[B] A nurse.[C] A nursing assistant.[D] A registered nurse.77. According to the passage, all of the following are the nurses’ job EXCEPT___________.[A] to administer appropriate medications[B] to help patients turn over every couple of hours[C] to chart and note significant changes in a patient’s health[D] to alert doctors to potential problems78. According to the passage, which of the following nursing item does NOT require greater training?[A] Starting and administering IV medications.[B] Planning and giving appropriate medications.[C] Charting vital signs many times during each shift.[D] Monitoring and reporting significant changes and potential problems.79. What does the phrase “the higher patient-to-nurse ratio” (Para. 4) probably mean?[A] There are more patients than nurses in the unit.[B] Fewer patients are cared for by the individual nurses in the unit.[C] Individual nurses care for more patients in the unit.[D] Individual patients are cared for by more than one nurse in the unit.80. Which of the following can we infer from the passage as the role of CNA?[A] They are responsible for charting vitals and fully aware of any changes in patients’ vital signs.[B] They help to reduce nurses’ workload by providing some cares that require not much training.[C] They support patients by administering medications to them.[D] They report any significant changes in a patient’s condition to the doctors and nurses.Section ⅣTranslation (10%)(15 minutes)Directions:Translate the following sentences from the reading passages into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your Answer Sheet.81.
