Dr. Shetty came from a rich family in India. He had a good education and then trained as a doctor in India. After qualifying（具备资格）, he went to Birmingham in the UK where he received his first training in heart surgery（外科；手术）. Later, he moved to London where he worked as a cardiologist in Guy's Hospital. He enjoyed working in England but he knew that there was a great need for cardiologists in India. Dr. Shetty knew that there were very few hospitals in India providing good medical care for poor people.
Many very poor people cannot afford the cost of hospital care so they cannot receive good health care. Dr. Shetty believed that this was wrong and he set out to provide hospital care for poor people. In Kolkata there are well-equipped hospitals but they only provide health services for those who can pay. In 1987, he set up a hospital in that city and, in 1997, he founded the Manipal Heart Foundation with 450 beds for patients who need heart operations.
Later, he was able to set up the Rabindranath Tagore International Institute of Cardiac Sciences in Kolkata. This center provides general health care but in particular it provides treatment for patients with heart diseases. However, he wanted to do more; he wanted to provide for people in the countryside. Now he has set up Coronary Care Units (CCUs) in the far-away areas of the northeast of India which are linked（联系）by television to the hospital in Kolkata. Patients can now go to a local hospital with a CCU and receive treatment from a doctor far away through this link.
The cost of running the hospital is far cheaper than in many other countries. One of the reasons for this is that the doctors are specialists in particular operations. They may perform five heart operations in one day while in other countries a heart specialist will only perform one a day. Dr. Shetty's idea is clear. He says,“I have never practised medicine for my personal gain. I began as a social worker and I am continuing in that way. I dream, breathe and live healthcare.”He operates free on children and has conducted more than 5000 operations on young people from poor families out of more than 13000.

[ ]

George Lucas’ answer
Well, I would say you have to be persistent first of all, because it’s a very hard thing to get into, and it’s very hard to make it because the odds are against you. So you have to really love it; kids who get into it because they think they’re going to make a lot of money or be famous or tell a lot of people what to do all the time will never make it. But if you’re obsessed with film and you love to tell stories and you love writing in that medium, then that will give you the strength to be persistent and make it happen.

Tom Fontana’s answer
I’ve never had writer’s block. I’m trying my luck because I’m hoping never to have it. As far as suggestions, I don’t know. If you write at the same time every day, your brain and your heart will be there, ready to go to work. It’s like how you eat at the same time over the course of the day – you should be available to write at the same time every day. If you have nothing to write, you should still write. Whether you write your name 100 times or describe a banana. If you write for five minutes, and you just get the words down, at least you’re doing something.

Drew Barrymore’s answer
I would just say to persevere and find people who are safe and honest and who will give you tough love and guide you through, because you really can’t do everything on your own. You need love and support around you, and to believe that you will get past these hard times. You will overcome. Things will get better. Life is a series of ups and downs, and the good news is that when you’re in a low, it will always go up again. Life is not a free journey. There are a lot of lessons you have to learn along the way, but just appreciate the gift of it and find people who will be honest with you.

Richard Seltzer’s answer
Become a doctor first because a writer doesn’t make a living – you have to support yourself and your family. But writing is a very individual thing. It’s like your fingerprint – on one else has exactly your style. A lucky writer will discover his or her style but an unlucky one will always be trying to force himself into an unnatural writing style. It’s uncomfortable, and for them, writing is painful. I’ve never suffered. My life has been a series of small, everyday events. If I feel I have rendered on little bit of life in the most compelling language I can find and am satisfied with it, that is an event I cherish.

Ms. Jamie Hobart’s answer
It is a long road after medical school and internship but my job is different every day and very interesting. Not everyone can do this job. Autopsies are very different from any other medical job. Here we don't really let anyone under 18 watch or participate in an autopsy. So take a basic anatomy course in college and if you don't mind the cadavers, then you might follow it further. You have to have a very strong stomach and a strong interest in the science. If you decide you really like forensics (the work of scientists who examine evidence in order to help the police solve crimes) but don’t want to do autopsies there are lots of other things in the forensic field like the DNA labor various evidence – related specialties. 查看习题详情和答案>>

阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
Back in the old days, when I was a child, we sat around the family round table at dinner time and exchanged our daily experiences. It wasn't organized, but everyone was recognized and all the news that had to be told was told by each family member.
We listened to each other and the interest was not put on; it was real. Our family was a unit and we supported each other, cared for each other, and liked each other, and
we were even willing to admitwe loved each other.
Today, the family roundtable has moved to the local fast - food franchise (特权) and talk is not easy, much less encouraged.
The working parent is far too beaten down each day to spend evening relaxation time listening to the sandbox experience of an eager four - year- old child.
So family conversation is no longer in existence and parental questions such as “What have you been doing, Bobby?” have been replaced by “I'm busy, go to watch television.”
And watch TV as they do?
But it's usually not children's television that children watch. Saturday morning, the children's hour, amounts to only about 8 percent of their weekly viewing.
But wait! Where are they to be found? Watching adult television, of course, from the Match Game in the morning, to the afternoon at General Hospital, from the muggings and battles on the evening news right through the family hour and past into Starsky and Hutch. That's where you find our kids, over five million of them, at 10 p.m., not fewer than a million until after midnight! Ad of this is done with parental permission.
Television, used well, can provide enriching experiences for our young people, but we must use it with some judgement. When the carpet is clean, we turn off the vacuum cleaner. When the dishes are clean, the dishwasher turns itself off.
It is not the same with the television, which is on from the sun in the morning to the moon at night and beyond!
Parents must exercise some control and interest themselves in the cultural influence on the child when a program not intended for that child is viewed. Parents need to be intervened (干预). Nonintervention may be a popular policy in international affairs, but the results of parental nonintervention will not be welcome at the United Nations or anywhere else.
1．From the first two paragraphs one may infer that the writer's attitude towards “the old days” is ________.
[ ]
2．The working parent is not willing to listen to her (his) four - year- old child talking about his sandbox games because she (he) is ________.
[ ]
3．If we use television with some ________ television can provide our young people with much knowledge.
[ ]
4．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
[ ]
A．Nonintervention may be a good policy in international affairs.
B．Parents must exercise some control and interest themselves in the cultural influence on the children.
C．Parents have rights to intervene.
D．Parental nonintervention will have a bad effect on international affairs
