11、seYou cant beat it, but you dont have to join it. Maybe it got the name “common cold“ because its more common in winter.

12、ling you how to avoid getting one than how to get rid of one.Children are the most common way cold viruses are spread to adults, because they have more colds than adults an average of about eight per year. Why do kids seem so much more easily to get colds than their parents? Simple. They havent had

13、the opportunity to become immune to many cold viruses.There are more than 150 different cold viruses, and you never have the same one twice. Being infected by one makes you immune to it but only it.Colds are usually spread by direct contact, not sneezing or coughing. From another persons hand to you

14、r hand and then to your nose or eyes is the most common route.

15、th a disinfectant soap, especially when children in your household have colds.But even careful hygiene wont ward off every cold.

21、American Medical Association.“The incidence of serious and fatal adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in US hospitals was found to be extremely high, “ say researchers at the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada.They carried on an analysis of 39 ADR-related studies at US hospitals over the past 30 year

22、s and defined an ADR as “any harmful, unintended, and undesired effect of a drug which occurs at doses used in humans for prevention, diagnosis, or therapy. “An average 6.7% of all hospitalized patients experience an ADR every year, according to the researchers. They estimate that “in 1994, overall

23、2,216,000 hospitalized patients had serious ADRs, and 106,000 had fatal ADRs. “ This means that ADRs may rank as the fourth single largest cause of death in America.And these incidence figures are probably conservative, the researchers add, since their ADR definition did not include outcomes linked

24、to problems in drug administration, overdoses, drug abuse, and therapeutic failures.The control of ADRs also means spending more money. One US study estimated the overall cost of treating ADRs at up to $4 billion per year.Dr. David Bates of Brigham and Womens Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, belie

25、ves that healthcare workers need to pay more attention to the problem, especially since many ADRs are easily preventable. “When a patient develops an allergy or sensitivity, it is often not recorded, “ Bates notes, “and patients receive drugs to which they have known allergies or sensitivities with

26、disturbing frequency. “He believes computerized surveillance systems still works-in-progress at many of the nations hospitals should help cut down the frequency of these types of errors.（分数：10.00）(1).Researchers at the University of Toronto believe that _.A.

In terms of the senses, visual experience is present in almost all dreams;

32、auditory experience in 40 to 50 percent; and touch, taste, smell, and pain in a relatively small percentage. A considerable amount of emotion is commonly present, usually a pure and single emotion such as fear, anger, or Joy.Two clearly distinguishable states of sleep exist. The first state, called

33、NREM-sleep (non- rapid-eye-movement sleep), occupies most of the sleep period and is associated with a relatively low pulse and blood pressure, and few or no reports of dreaming. The second type of sleep, known as REM-sleep ( rapid-eye-movement sleep) occurs cyclically during the sleep period with r

34、apid eye movements and frequent dream reports. Typically, a person has four or five periods of REM-sleep during the night, whether the dreams are remembered often, rarely, or not at all; they occur at intervals of about 90 minutes and altogether make up about 25 percent of the nights sleep (as much

35、as 50 percent in a newborn child). Evidence indicates that a dream period usually lasts from 5 to 20 minutes. Sounds and touches working on a dreamer can go into a dream if they occur during a REM-period. Although mental activity may be reported during NREM-sleep, these are usually short pieces of t

36、houghtlike experiences.Modern dream research has focused on two general interpretations of dream content. In one view, dreams have no meaning of their own but are simply a process by which the brain integrates new information into memories. In the other view, dreams contain real meaning symbolized i

37、n a picture language distinct from conscious logical thought. If dreams express important wishes, fears, concerns, and worries of the dreamer, the study and analysis of dreams can help reveal previously unknown aspects of a persons mental functioning.（分数：10.00）(1).There are in general two opinions a

38、bout what we experience m a dream: _.A. one, we “see“ our dreams, and two, we “think“ our dreamsB. one, we are happy, and two, we are angryC. one, dreams put new information into our memories, and two, dreams have real meanings in pictures different from our logical thinkingD. we have pictures in dr

40、ays see different “pictures“ when we are dreaming（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).In your dreams, you _.A. very often feel happy and unhappy at the same timeB. always feel that you are afraid of somebodyC. seldom feel fear now and joy laterD. only feel anger（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).This essay tells us that _.A. peo

41、ple usually dream in a NREM sleepB. people usually dream in an REM sleepC. people always remember what they have dreamed in an REM sleepD. people may have an REM sleep all night through（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Based on what is discussed in this writing, an adult may have at most about _ of the time of h

42、is or her sleep dreaming.A. 90% B. 50% C. 25% D. 20%（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.Warm People Likely to Keep Cold at BayStaying positive through the cold season could be your best defense against getting ill, new study findings suggest. In an experiment that exposed healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, res

43、earchers found that people with a generally sunny disposition were less likely to fall ill.The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style“ can help ward off the common cold and other illnesses. Researchers believe the reasons may be

44、both objective as in happiness boosting immune function and subjective as in happy people being less troubled by a scratchy throat or runny nose.“People with a positive emotional style may have different immune responses to the virus,“ explained lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon

45、University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may interpret their illness as being less severe. “Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less susceptible to catching a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional trait itself

46、had the effect.For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of personality traits, self-perceived health and emotional “style“. Those who tended to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often

47、unhappy, tense and hostile had a negative style.The researchers gave them nasal drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the volunteers reported on any aches, pains, sneezing or congestion they had, while the researchers collected objective data, like d

48、aily mucus production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes, happy people were less likely to develop a cold.（分数：10.00）(1).According to a study author, when people with a positive emotional style do get a cold, they may think _.A. that their illness is very s

49、eriousB. that their illness is not so seriousC. that they do not get any illness at allD. that the illness they get is not a mild one（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).People with a positive emotional style may have all of the following characteristics EXCEPT _.A. happy B. selfishC. easy-going D. energetic（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Which of the following is NOT one of the characteristics that people with a negative emotional style may have?A.
