23、th, or advice about how to be oneself in society. If I cut the front essay, the opposite one is bound to suffer damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text without the subject.

26、des of a thing which are both desirable like newspaper cutting. It often-occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only after we take up another. The former may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind. I still remember a philosopher s(哲学家) remarks: “When one door shut
27、s, another opens in life. “ So a passive choice may not be a bad one.Whatever we do in our lifetime, wherever life s storm makes us go, there must be something we can achieve, some shore we can land on. Don t forget God always keeps an alternative door open for everyone. While the front door is clos

Scientific doctors try
32、to observe sicknesses, look for logical patterns, 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 world this approach probably did no
33、t cure many patients.The second kind of medicine is called “natural cures“ or “folk medicine“, in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs(草). These folk healers also use observation and logic, but they are not aware of it. They try things until they find something that s
34、eems to work, and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine.The third kind is called “health spas“ or “faith healing“. Sometimes this is as simple as touching the holy man and b
35、eing immediately healed. Other times, a magician may make you a magic charm, or say a spell, to cure you. Some religious groups organize special healing shrines (神坛) for the sick. In these places people rest, get plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in various
36、 ways. They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods.
