The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely“not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the bodys special needs.Both types have simply been called “well” In recent years, ho

26、wever, some health specialists havebegun to apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively attempting tomaintain and improve their health.

27、perhaps, peoplewho are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people whohave a physical disease or handicap (缺 陷 ) may be “well”, in this new sense, if they make aneffort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physicallimitations.“We

28、llness” may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but asan ideal that people can struggle for.

29、an have a beneficial influence on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.29.

33、第 二 段 Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺 陷 ) maybe ”well”， in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they canin the face of their physical limitations.(根 据 这 些 新 定 义 ， 即 使 那 些 有 生 理 残 疾 的 人 ， 也 可 以 被认 为 是 “ 健 康 ” 的 人 。 )又 在 下 文 总 结 了 这 一 点 ， 根

34、 据 这 种 新 的 定 义 ， 健 康 的 人 就 应 该 是 那些 无 论 身 体 有 何 局 限 ， 只 要 努 力 追 求 最 有 可 能 的 健 康 状 态 的 人 。 与 C 选 项 相 符 。答 案 ： C DGrowing up in Puerto Rico, our family was no different from so many others. My parents gotmarried after my father came back when the war ended. Both of my parents were struggling withthe h

35、ard economic realities of the time. But somehow, they found time to cherish those culturalvalues that shaped our everyday life.In our daily life, we celebrated together with our friends or family members every birthday,every graduation, and all holidays with music and dancing， and typical foods. Whe

36、n we visited ourfamily in the countryside a trip that took about two hours in a car, with five children fighting asto who would get a window or the front seatwe would break into song, and somehow the tripwould turn into one full of happiness and fun. We would sing not only interesting childrens song

37、sbut also beautiful love songssongs about the love of the country though we didnt understand themeaning of the words many times.I came to Philadelphia for the first time in 1973 to do a residency(实 习 ) in family medicine.

39、liar rhythms,and the words spoke to my heart. I had found a space to express, celebrate, and share my culture inPhiladelphia. Therefore, I believe diversity is seen as an advantage and not as a disadvantage. As aPuerto Rican, I am a mixture of races and I believe in my strength because of this.32. W

42、 可 知 ， 作 者 一 家 人 一 路 欢 歌 ， 尽 管 他 们 很 多 时 候 还 不 懂 歌 词 的 意 思 ，但 他 们 享 受 其 中 的 欢 乐 。 再 结 合 全 文 的 内 容 可 知 ， 作 者 提 及 这 一 段 旅 程 的 目 的 是 说 明 文 化 价值 观 带 来 的 乐 趣 。 故 答 案 选 B 项 。答 案 ： B34.

47、use they thought if they did sailout beyond the horizon they would fall off the edge. 36The “fact” remained undoubted until Columbus questioned common knowledge and asked “what if?” 37In spite of our tendency to think of reality as the fixed basis of our experience, the definitionof reality changes

48、every time someone pushes the boundary of traditional wisdom. 38When Chuck Yeager flew the X1, he broke the myth that there was such a thing as a sound barrier.His training and instincts(本 能 ), combined with the new technology of the day, not only enabled him to go beyond the speed of sound, but rei
