17.What is the single largest cause of sick leave in the UK?The answer is not the common cold or flu,but back pain.Back pain affects one in three British adults,costs the country over 5billion pounds every year and is very difficult to treat.But now Britain's National Health Service(NHS)will be offering a new solution:acupuncture.The ancient Chinese needle therapy(疗法)has been around in the UK for many years,but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS's advisory body,the National Institute for Clinical Excellence(NICE).
Traditionally,doctors in the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active,do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary and in more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with therapeutic substances.
NICE,however,say there is evidence that acupuncture may be more effective than expensive X-rays or injections,so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice.As an alternative to acupuncture,patients will be able to choose for either a course of spinal manipulation(脊柱推拿术),or a series of special exercise sessions.In the UK,acupuncture is classed as a complementary therapy,which is the term given to a medical procedure which hasn't received the strict trials by which scientists prove some treatments work.
While many experts have welcomed the move to make acupuncture available on the NHS,some are still doubtful about its effectiveness.Research from the US earlier this month found that using toothpicks could be as good as using real needles.So while some are yet to be convinced,back pain sufferers will be hoping that acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy and mobile again.Employers,on the other hand,will be hoping it gets them back to work.

32.What can we learn from the first paragraph?B
A.The British have come to know acupuncture recently.
B.About thirty percent of the British suffer from back pain.
C.NICE has been arguing against Chinese needle therapy.
D.The British ask for sick leave mostly because of cold or flu.
33.The traditional ways to treat back pain in the UK includeC.

C.receiving X-ray treatment 
D.avoiding physical exercises
34.In treating back pain,acupunctureA.
A.may cost less than X-rays    
B.works surely better than injections
C.has gone through strict scientific tests 
D.will replace the traditional ways in the UK

A.They think highly of it.    
B.Most of them are against it.
C.Few recognize its usefulness.
D.They differ on its effectiveness.
4.Professor Wiseman expects thousands of people to take part in an experiment in controlling dreams.
Participants will download a specially designed iphone app that turns their phone into a dream factory.Placed on the bed,the phone can monitor when a sleeper is not moving,which suggests the onsetof dreaming.It then plays a carefully crafted(精心制作的)"soundscape"designed to produce pleasant scenes such as walking in the woods,or lying on a beach.The idea is that this will influence dreaming,causing dreamers to form fantasyland inspired by the sounds they are hearing.At the end of the dream the app sounds a gentle alarm to wake the dreamer,who submits a brief description of the dream to a"dream catcher"database(数据库).
Prof Wiseman,from the University of Hertfordshire,who is best known for his research on sleeps,said,"Getting a good night's sleep and having pleasant dreams promotes people's productivity,and is necessary for their mental and physical well being. Despite this we know very little about how to influence dreams.This experiment aims to change that."
As many as 10,000 people are expected to take part in the study,declared at the Edinburgh International Science Festival.Prof Wiseman teamed up with app developers YUZA,which created the"Dream:ON"software.Participants will be encouraged to share their dreams via Facebook and Twitter.
A national survey conducted for the experiment found that 21% of people had trouble sleeping and 15%suffered from unpleasant dreams.Prof Wiseman said people feeling low dreamed far more than others,and often had negative dreams."Perhaps improving their dreams might help them,"he added.
The"Dream:ON"app can be downloaded for free from iTunes or via the project site,http://dreamonapp.com.
64.What is the special function of the"Dream:ON"software?B
A.Recording the process of dreams.    B.Sweetening dreams.
C.Stopping unpleasant dreams.         D.Waking up dreamers.
65.Why does professor Wiseman carry out the experiment?D
A.To improve the quality of sleeping.
B.To analyse mental effect on dreamers.
C.To set up a worldwide dream database.

In the United States,Hurricane Sandy affected 24 states,including the entire eastern seaboard from Florida to Maine and west across the Appalachian Mountainsto Michiganand Wisconsin,with particularly severe damage in New Jersey and New York.Its storm hit New York City on October 29,flooding streets,tunnels and subway lines and cutting power in and around the city.Damage in the US is estimated at over 63 billion.
