7、A.consideredB.decidedC.devotedD.devisedFlu Shots Or Not? It sounded like a good idea when New York Citys mayor, Rudollph Giuliani, advised New Yorkers recently to get a flu shot. After all, 20,000 Americans each year die of influenza. And this year in particular, the mayor suggested, getting a flu s
8、hot might be an especially good idea, since it could help doctors distinguish between flu and the deadly inhalational (吸入的) form of anthrax (炭疽). How? Both anthrax and flu exhibit strikingly similar symptomsfever, chills and muscle achesin the early days of the infection. Physicians would be quick t
9、o suspect anthrax in anyone who was vaccinated (接种疫苗) against flu and still developed fever and chills. That would give them a better chance to identify any new victims of terror while their infection was still in its earliest, most treatable stages. Or so the mayors reasoning went. Unfortunately, t
10、here are a couple of problems with his logic. For one thing, getting vaccinated against influenza doesnt guarantee you wont get sick. Although highly effective, the flu vaccine (疫苗) protects against only the dominant types of the disease and even then does not provide 100% protection. It takes a cou
11、ple of weeks for your body to respond to the vaccine with a sufficient number of antibodies (抗体). Each year thousands of Americans who get the vaccine nevertheless still get the flu. There are also plenty of reasons you might develop fever, chills and muscle aches that have nothing to do with either
12、 anthrax or flu. Indeed, doctors estimate that more than 80% of all flu like illnesses each winter are caused by other groups of viruses. Getting vaccinated against flu cant protect you against suffering from these other illnesses. In the worst case, asking all healthy adults to get vaccinated could
13、 actually have the opposite effect to the one intended, leading to even more deaths if it means we run out of shots for those who are most vulnerable to the infection. Already there have been delays in getting this years shipment of vaccine to clinics and doctors offices. Those who should be at the
14、front of the line include folks who are 65 or older, nursing-home residents and adults and children with chronic health problems as well as anyone who cares for or lives with such people. Flu shots are also important for men and women whose immune system is weakened by HIV (艾滋病病毒) or other condition
15、s. The best reason to get the flu vaccine is that it protects against most flus not that youre worried about getting anthrax. While inhalational anthrax has killed only five people so far, many more could be at risk from flu-related complications. Theres no need to worsen the tragedy by making this

What will she want to be when she grows up? But the biggest question for every parent is “Will she be healthy?“ 2. Our daught
20、er, Ashley Elizabeth Naylor, was born on August 12, 1988. We had a lot of mixed emotions the day of her birth, but mainly we felt fear and despair. The doctors suspected complications (并发病) , which led to a cesarean section (剖腹产手术) , but the exact problem was not known. Two weeks after her birth, ch
21、romosome (染色体) analysis revealed cat cry syndrome. The doctors were uncertain about how the disease would develop. This was a rare disorder, we were told, and little could be offered to help our daughter. The doctors used the words “profoundly slow,“ which cut like a knife through our hearts and our
22、 hopes. It wasnt until a few years later that we realized how little the medical community actually knew about cat cry syndrome and especially about our little girl! 3. Ashley defied all the standard medical labels, as well as her doctors expectations. Her spirit and determination enabled her to wal

With early intervention and education at United Services for the Handicapped, Ashley found the resources and additional encouragement she needed to succeed. In return, Ashley freely offered one of he
24、r best loved and sought after giftsher embraces. Her bright eyes and glowing smile captured the hearts of everyone she met. 4. In May of 1992, Ashleys small body could no longer support the spirit that inspired so many. She passed away after a long battle with pneumonia (肺炎). Her physical presence i
25、s gone, but her message remains: hope. 5. If you are a parent faced with similar profound questions after the birth of your child, do not assume one doctor has all the answers. Search for doctors who respect your child enough to talk to her, not just about her. Above all, find an agency or a school
26、that can help you give your child a chance to succeed. Early education for your child and support for yourself are crucial. 6. If you are a student in a health field, become as knowledgeable as possible and stay current with the latest research, but most importantly, be sensitive to those who seek y

34、the increased risks of several kinds of cancers as well as heart and lung diseases,“ he added. “ In other words, cigars are not safe alternatives to cigarettes and may be addictive. “ “To those individuals who may be thinking about smoking cigars, our advices is dont. To those currently smoking ciga
35、rs, quitting is the only way to eliminate completely the cancer, heart and lung disease risks,“ warned Klausner.

He chooses his food carefully and gets plenty of exercise. He also avoids stress, coca cola and cigarette smoke. Whats more, at
41、 breakfast each morning, the 69-year-old chemical engineer swallows a plateful of pills in the hope of boosting his brain power. Michelle Amove is less than half Fields age, but no less concerned about her memory. While working round the clock to finish a degree in film studies, the 33-year-old New
42、Yorker had the alarming sensation that she had stopped retaining anything. “I couldnt even remember names,“ she says. “I thought, Oh, no, Im over 30. Its all downhill from here. “ Besides loading up on supplements, Amove signed up for a memory enhancing course at New Yorks Mount Siani Medical Center
43、. And when she got there, she found herself surrounded by people who were just as worried as she was. For millions of Americans, and especially for baby boomers (生育高峰出生的人) , the demands of the Information Age conflict with a sense of declining physical power. “When boomers were in their 30s and 40s,
44、 they launched the fitness boom,“ says Cynthia Green, the psychologist who teaches Mount Sinais memory class. “Now we have the mental-fitness boom Memory is the boomers new life-crisis issue.“ And of course a major marketing opportunity.

Anxious consumers are rushing to buy do-it-yourself programs and supplement makers are trying to sell everything but sawdust (木屑) as a brain booster. But before you
46、 get out your checkbook, a few questions are in order. Does everyday forgetfulness signal declining brain function? Is “megamemory“ (超级记忆) a realistic goal for normal people? And if you could have a perfect memory, would you really want it? Until recently, no one could address those issues with much
47、 authority, but our knowledge of memory is exploding. New techniques are revealing how different parts of the brain interact to preserve meaningful experiences. Biologists are trying to understand the underlying (潜在的) chemical processes and neuroscientists (神经系统科学家) are discovering how age, stress a
48、nd other factors can disrupt them. No one is close to finding the secret to perfect recall, but as youll see, that may be just as well. （分数：-1.00）(1).What does Stan Field take at breakfast?（分数：-0.20）A.Food only.B.Nothing.C.Food and pills.D.A plateful of pills only.(2).What is the meaning of “working
