17.Many people think that listening is a passive business.It is just the opposite.Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work.It is because they do not realize this,or because they are not willing to do the work,that most people do not listen well.Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else.An essential part of listening well is the rule known as‘bracketing'.Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires,to experience as far as possible someone else's world from the inside,stepping into his or her shoes.Moreover,since listening well involves bracketing,it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person.Sensing this acceptance,the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener.True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.
Most of the time we lack this energy.Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well,what we are usually doing is listening selectively.Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder,as we listen,how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us.Many of us are far
more interested in talking than in listening,or we simply refuse to listen to what we don't want to hear.
It wasn't until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) In about a quarter of the patients I saw,surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法),before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained.There are several reasons for this phenomenon,but chief among them,I believe,was the patient's sense that he or she was being truly listened to,often for the first time in years,and for some,perhaps for the first time ever.

Nowadays.millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications and other drugs.Research by the American National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA,1999)shows that around 2% of the population over age 12were using drugs non-medically.

NIDA views medications as a powerful force for good in the contemporary world.They reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease.They make it possible for doctors to perform complicated surgery to save lives.Many people afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active,contributing citizens.NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drags use them in a responsible.
78.A
Nevertheless.overuse of drugs such as opioids,central nervous system (CNS) depressants and stimulants does lead to harmful reliance in some people and is therefore becoming a serious public health concern.Although this abuse affects many people worldwide,particular trends of concern to the medical profession in the US appear among older adults,teenagers arid women.
79.F
Though it may be a surprise to many,the misuse of medications may be the most common form of drug abuse among the elderly.Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University,North Carolina states that although the elderly represent about 13% of the US population,those aged 65and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs.People in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general population and have poorer compliance with instruction for use.In another study of elderly patients admitted to treatment programs,70% were women who had overused medicines.
80.D
Unfortunately,this trend among women does not only affect those aged over
In general,among women and men who are using either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative,women are twice as likely to become addicted.In addition,statistics compiled for 12-17year olds show that teenage girls are more likely than teenage boys to begin overusing psychotherapeutic medication such as painkillers,tranquillisers,stimulants and sedatives.
