Text 4Over the last decade, demand for the most common cosmetic surgery procedures, like breast enlargements and nose jobs, has increased by more than 400 percent. According to Dr. Dai Davies, of the Plastic Surgery Partnership in Hammersmith, the majority of cosmetic surgery patients are not chasing physical perfection. Rather, they are driven to fantastic lengths to improve their appearance by a desire to look normal. “What we all crave is to look normal, and normal is what is prescribed by the advertising media and other external pressures. They give us a perception of what is physically acceptable and we feel we must look like that.”In America, the debate is no longer about whether surgery is normal; rather, it centres on what age people should be before going under the knife. New York surgeon Dr. Gerard Imber recommends “maintenance” work for people in their thirties. “The idea of waiting until one needs a heroic transformation is silly,” he says. “By then, you’ve wasted 20 great years of your life and allowed things to get out of hand.” Dr. Imber draws the line at operating on people who are under 18, however. “It seems that someone we don’t consider old enough to order a drink shouldn’t be considering plastic surgery.”In the UK cosmetic surgery has long been seen as the exclusive domain of the very rich and famous. But the proportionate cost of treatment has fallen substantially, bringing all but the most advanced laser technology within the reach of most people. Dr. Davies, who claims to “cater for the average person”, agrees. He says:“I treat a few of the rich and famous and an awful lot of secretaries. Of course, ￡3,000 for an operation is a lot of money. But it is also an investment for life which costs about half the price of a good family holiday.”Dr. Davies suspects that the increasing sophistication of the fat injecting and removal techniques that allow patients to be treated with a local anaesthetic in an afternoon has also helped promote the popularity of cosmetic surgery. Yet, as one woman who recently paid ￡2,500 for liposuction to remove fat from her thighs admitted, the slope to becoming a cosmetic surgery Veteran is a deceptively gentle one. “I had my legs done because they’d been bugging me for years. But going into the clinic was so low key and effective it whetted my appetite. Now I don’t think there’s any operation that I would rule out having if I could afford it.”第36题：1. According to the text, the reason for cosmetic surgery is to _____.［A］ be physically healthy［B］ look more normal［C］ satisfy appetite［D］ be accepted by media
According to the third paragraph, Dr. Davies implies that_____.［A］ cosmetic surgery, though costly, is worth having［B］ cosmetic surgery is too expensive［C］ cosmetic surgery is necessary even for the average person［D］ cosmetic surgery is mainly for the rich and famous
It can be inferred from the text that____.［A］ it is wise to have cosmetic surgery under 18［B］ cosmetic surgery is now much easier［C］ people tend to abuse cosmetic surgery［D］ the earlier people have cosmetic surgery, the better they will be
The text is mainly about _____.［A］ the advantage of having cosmetic surgery［B］ what kind of people should have cosmetic surgery［C］ the reason why cosmetic surgery is so popular［D］ the disadvantage of having cosmetic surgery

共用题干第一篇Do Patients Trust Doctors Too Much?Earlier this year,the American College of Surgeons,the national scientific and educational organizationof surgeons,conducted a nationwide survey that found that the average patient devotes an hour or less to re- searching his or her surgery or surgeon.While prospective patients worry about the costs or complications of an operation,they don't necessarily look for information that would address their concerns.In fact,more than a third of patients who had an operation in the last five years never reviewed the cre- dentials of the surgeon who operated.Patients are more likely to spend time researching a job change(on average,about 10 hours)or a new car(8 hours)than the operation they are about to submit to or the surgeon who wields（支配）the knife. And many patients are satisfied with the answers they receive from their sur -geons or primary care doctors,whoever those individuals happen to be.I felt curious about the survey,so I called Dr. Thomas Russell,executive director of the American College of Surgeons."There is a tendency for patients not to get particularly involved and not to feel com-pelled to look into their surgery or surgeons,"he told me.There are consequences to that kind of blind trust."Today,medicine and surgery are really team sports,"Dr. Russell continued,"and the patient,as the ultimate decision-maker,is the most important mem- ber of the team.Mistakes can happen,and patients have to be educated and must understand what isgoing on."In other words,a healthy doctor-patient relationship does not simply entail good bedside manners and re-sponsible office management on the part of the doctor. It also requires that patients come to the relationshipeducated about their doctors,their illnesses and their treatment."If we are truly going to reform the health care system in the U.S.,"Dr. Russell said,"everybody hasto participate actively and must educate themselves.That means doctors,nurses,other health careprofessionals , lawyers , pharmaceutical（制药的）companies , and insurance companies. But most of all , it means the patient."Trust is important. But as Sir Francis Bacon,who was among the first to understand the importance of gathering data in science,once observed,knowledge is power.Medicine and surgery are now really team sports in which__________.A:patients and doctors play equally important rolesB:the patient does not have an active role to playC:doctors have the final say in almost everythingD:the patient has the most important role to play

问答题To help, or not to help? That has become a dilemma in modern China. According to a recent survey by China Youth Daily, 76.1 percent of the respondents say that our current society provides a “bad environment” for good people doing good deed. The following article is about the prevalent fear of helping old people in China. Read it carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should: 1. summarize briefly the article; 2. give your comment on this phenomenon. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Lately, China’s Ministry of Health issued guidelines on how to handle cases of elderly falling. But instead of addressing the worrisome legal liability issue, it focuses mainly on medical consequences of a fall and offers technical solutions to different fall scenarios, while also telling people to overcome embarrassment and psychological fear of helping. This has further inflamed citizens who feel in a dilemma between wanting to help, and having fear of being taken advantage of for their kindness. Falling down is a leading cause of death for Chinese citizens aged 65 and above, according to Yang Maowei, Associate Professor of the First Hospital of China Medical University. However, in recent years, there have been frequent reports of such deaths in public places with no one helping the victims, Yang said. It seems that Chinese people have become reluctant to help because they worry that the person they help may later turn around and sue them, as that is what’s been happening a number of times in recent years. As a consequence, several elderly have been left to die in the streets with people passing by or watching, but not helping them. One line in the guidelines that particularly irked netizens said, “whether or not to lend a hand depends on the situation.” After the Ministry’s guidelines came out, Sina Weibo conducted a poll, asking people whether they are still willing to help an elderly who has fallen, considering the Ministry’s guidelines. Of the 5,031 who voted, only 20 percent said yes, while 43 percent said no, and the remaining 38 percent said, they’re not sure. Some people left comments expressing their inner conflicts and disillusionment over China’s sliding moral values: “I dare not help, but I’ll run to a public phone booth to call 120, the emergency number in China, and ask for an ambulance.” “I can’t even protect my own safety. How can I have the ability to take care of others? It’s really funny!” “To put it frankly, it reflects the degeneration of society’s morality. The culture has no direction, the morality has no bottom line, and the trust between people, and between people and the government is too low.” “Unless I were Bill Gates, I would help for sure.” “I would certainly help before. Now I’m really a bit afraid.” “In today’s Chinese society, traditional values and virtues have been eradicated completely. No matter what guidelines are issued, when one really stands at a critical point, the law will not protect the poor people.” “There’s no way out. The state educates us this way, and now it turns around to accuse us of having no morality. Isn’t that ridiculous? Whether to help is not a moral issue, but the crux of China’s current education” “At present, China’s social values are lost, and morality is ruined to the point of national doom.”
问答题Practice 9 Millions of elderly Germans received a notice from the Health Social Security Ministry earlier this month that struck a damaging blow to the welfare state. The statement informed them that their pensions were being cut. The reductions come as a stop-gap measure to control Germany's ballooning pension crisis. Not surprisingly, it was an unwelcome change for senior citizens such as Sabine Wetzel, a 67-year-old retired bank teller, who was told that her state pension would be cut by $12.30 a month. “It was a real shock,” she says.” My pension had always gone up in the past.” There's more bad news on the way. On March 11, Germany's lower house of Parliament passed a bill gradually cutting state pensions- which have been rising steadily since World War Ⅱ— from 53% of average wages now to 46% by 2020. And Germany is not alone. Governments across Western Europe are racing to curb pension benefits. In Italy, the government plans to rise the minimum retirement age from 57 to 60, while France will require that civil servants put in 40 years rather than 37.5 to qualify for a full pension. The reforms are coming despite tough opposition from unions, leftist politicians, and pensioners' groups.
