  What is in the drug that makes you sick or dead ? For example ,cocaine is harmful ,but what makes it harmful?

  I can’t tell you all about drugs ,but I can   1   you think about them in this   2   way. Your body is a very complicated(复杂的) machine,   3   a lot of chemical machinery, all of which is finally turned   4   it all works together . Special chemicals, which we call drugs ,can affect it in many different ways.

  Some drugs are   5  when your body has a problem, as with disease-causing bacteria. Then someone may give you aspirin to keep your temperature from going too  6  or some penicillin(青霉素)  7  it stops the growth of some kinds of bacteria.  8  ,all drugs are really poison,  9  if you take too much ,so you must always use them  10  .

  Why do some people take drugs like cocaine ? For a little while they seem to make you feel better ,or happier .But  11  their effects have  12  ,your body has to pay an extra  13  to get back to normal. That makes you want to get  14  of the drug .

  Drugs like cocaine have their special effects because they act as  15  for your nervous system. They cut off some of your nerve pathways and take away some of your senses and your  16  .They make you want always more . And just a little too much can even   17  nerves to your heart and stop its beating .

  Many of us worry about the   18  around us and what pollution does to us .How about your internal(内在的) environment, and what goes on   19  you ? You control that all by yourself in what you put into your   20  . Most drugs are pollutants .You would not want pollutants in the air and water around you . Why would you want pollutants in your body ?

I was cleaning out an old box when an old card caught my eye:Queen City Casket Company.“What is it?” I wondered.I  36  it over.There,in faded ink, was a hand-scrawled(手写的)  37 . Immediately my mind traveled  38   many years.
I was nine years old, walking down the cold,wet streets of Springfield,with a bag of magazines on my shoulder.On my   39  that day.I came to that Company finally, whose owner, Mr. Rader,had always taken me there to ask his workers  40  they wanted any magazines.
