Throw the bottles and boxes of drugs out of your house. A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad for your health, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis.

Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, x-rays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors.

We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some “everyday complaints” such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xanax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga, you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our bodies. It is a simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained.

Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these patients spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they take. Actually, it is common knowledge that except for when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.

I believe in miracles(奇迹)because I've seen so many of them．One day，a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old．“There’s a 36 in my upper jaw，”she said．“I told my own dentist it's nothing，but he   37 I come to see you”
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her．He would 38 to add something，but she stopped him．She wanted to tell everything herself．I found a large cancer that spread over much of the
39 of her mouth．A careful examination later   40 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer．
During her next appointment，I explained to her the   41 of the problem She clasped my
hand in hers and said，“I know you’re worried about me，but I’m just 42 ．”
I thought otherwise．After considerable 43 on my part，and kindness on her part because she wanted to 44 me，she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon．She saw him，but as I expected， 45 treatment．
About six months later she returned to my office，still energetic and 46 ．
“How are you?”I asked．
“I’m just fine，honey，”she responded 47 high spirits．“When can I get stared on fixing
my dentures(假牙)?”
Surprised to see her at all，I answered   48 ，“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll
see about it. ”
I couldn’t believe my eyes．The cancer that had 49 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness 50 ．
I had read of such things happening，but had 51 seen them with my own eyes．That was my first miracle．Since then I've seen many others，because they keep getting 52 to see．In fact，miracles are daily events for me now．And people are n miracle， 53 through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to 54 the miracles of one another．
Since my first miracle，I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it．

Junk food advertising is “monopolising(垄断)” the Internet as television advertising comes under examination. Among 315 children’s websites, ads for soft drink, ice-cream, fast food and sugar are more than those for healthy foods by two to one.
Researchers looked at every food reference on 119 websites of companies active in advertising food and drink to children. They found that food references—anything from a picture or an article to an ad or a game—appeared on 44 per cent of popular children’s websites. Two-thirds of these were for unhealthy foods. Unhealthy products were three times more likely to be branded.
Many of the techniques used on food product websites for companies that included Cadbury, Nestle and Kellogg strengthen the food brand and make children spend more time seeing the product. More children spend more time on the Internet which captures and maintains children’s attention. It makes the Internet a powerful marketing medium.
Researchers found that 29 per cent of sites used advergames—in which the branded product is integrated (融入)into a computer game.The number of games per site varied. The Wrigley’s Candystand website contained 67   games. Those sites aiming at younger children and adults had a higher rate of advergames than those for preschool-age children, as did those sugary drinks , ice-cream and chocolate.
Kathy Chapman, the senior nutritionist at the Cancer Council, said, “The marketing is becoming a lot more complex. It used to be a couple of things; now it’s a whole range. The companies use different kinds of ways to promote their products and make them known. There’s a lot more things going on.”
68. According to the passage, television advertising about junk food      .
A. is more popular than the Internet advertising
B. is becoming more and more varied
C. is being controlled at present
D. will be replaced by the Internet advertising

A. The Internet is becoming more popular with children than the other medium
B. The children believe in the advertisements on the Internet.
C. The techniques make junk food more attractive.
D. The number of children watching TV has dropped a lot.
70. What can we know about the advergames?
A. They are new websites to advertise junk food.
B. Most of the children’s websites have advergames.
C. They are popular advertisements for children.
D. Children can get the junk food advertisements through advergames.
71. What does the passage mainly talking about?

“I don’t think I can do this any more.” “Yes, you can. You only have five more radiation treatments to go. ” I held my wife Becky close.

Ever since the breast cancer diagnosis (诊断), she had tried hard to be strong for the kids and for me. When her diagnosis came, my first thought was there was no way I could lose my wife. The doctors assured us the cancer was discovered early so we were feeling positive.

Becky had received an operation and was recovering from it. After six weeks of radiation therapy(治疗), she was facing her final five treatments. She was weak and tired, in low spirits. Seeing her suffering, I felt so helpless and powerless.

As soon as I was outside, long-held frustration and anger erupted in me like a volcano. I took a hammer and suddenly was swinging as hard as I could, beating heavily on the front porch(门廊). While doing so, I imagined I was beating my wife’s cancer. With all my strength, I destroyed the porch.

During the treatment, my wife had been very brave. She said she had it easy, but I don’t think it was easy for her.

Seeing the porch gone, Becky shook her head at the window. I came into the room, not knowing how she would react to what I had done.

“Becky, are you mad at me?” She looked at me in surprise. “For what?” I pointed at the gate. “For tearing down the porch.” She laughed. “Look how sunny this room is now. I love that it’s bright in here.”

“You comforted me in my darker hour, Vince. You’ve found a way to deal with your own frustration. By destroying the porch, you let the sunshine in.”

As I looked around the brightened room, I realized the light that filled the space was the light of hope that shone so bright after the darkness. We never did re-build the porch.

A. the author had little hope that his wife would survive

B. the author was determined to save his wife’s life

C. the author’s wife refused to receive radiation treatments

D. the author felt lucky that his wife’s disease was not serious

2.The author went outside to destroy the porch because _______.

A. he wanted to release his frustration

B. he was disappointed with his wife

C. he intended to let sunshine in

D. his wife didn’t like it at all

3.How did the author’s wife feel about him seeing the porch gone?

A. Sympathetic B. Angry

C. Understanding D. Happy

4.What lesson can we learn from the passage?

A. Tragedy cannot separate loving couple

B. A day without sunshine is like night

C. True love is based on understanding

D. Nothing is impossible for a willing heart

One genetic mutation(基因突变)occurs on average for every 15 cigarettes that a typical lung-cancer patient smokes, according to a study that has found for the first time all of the mutations happen during the lifetime of a cancer patient.

Scientists have completed a full genetic examinations of the genomes（基因组） of cancer patients, and hope the information will lead to a basic understanding of the causes of cancer—and possibly drugs and treatments—by making out the mutations that turn a healthy cell into a cancerous tumor cell.

They studied a lung-cancer patient who had about 23,000 DNA mutations in his lung cells that were connected with exposure(暴露) to the toxins found in cigarette smoke and had built up over his lifetime.

They also looked at a patient with malignant melanoma(恶性黑色肿瘤), the most dangerous form of skin cancer, who had got 30,000 special mutations known to be connected with exposure to sunlight.

Scientists believe this new finding into the genetics of cancer will finally lead to new drugs and perfect treatments that aim at the specific changes to the gene that cause the disease, as well as new techniques for discovering following cancers that have escaped from treatment in other parts of the body.

“For the first time, we have a complete map of all mutations in a cancer cell,” said Dr. Peter Campbell, who led the Cancer Genome project to work out the whole DNA system of tumor cells in order find the mutations.

A similar method was performed on the cells of a patient with skin cancer, which is how the researchers were able to show that the malignant skin cells contained changes that resulted from exposure to light.

“These are the two main cancers in the developed world for which we know the chief exposure. For lung cancer it is cigarette smoke, and for malignant melanoma it is exposure to sunlight,” Professor Campbell said.

1.What can the genetic examination of the genomes of cancer patients be used for?

A.To help the professors to win the Nobel Prizes.

B.To advance the study of reason and cure of cancer.

C.To make the medicine industries earn more money.

D.To help the cancer patients reduce their pain.

2.The underlined word in the third paragraph can be placed by_____.

A.smoke B.sunlight C.cell D.poison

3.Which of the following statements is right according to the passage?

A.The lung-cancer patient had 30,000 mutations in his lung cells.

B.The genetics of cancer will finally lead to new drugs soon.

C.It’s the first time that people mapped mutations in a cancer cell.

D.Dr. Peter tries to invent a new drug with the DNA system.

4.What’s the similarity between malignant melanoma and skin cancer of patients?

A.Their smoking too much in daily life.

B.Their receiving too much sunshine.

C.Their refusing to accept treatment.

D.Their interest in travelling abroad.
