Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He 13 her at once. He went back to the 14 room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special 15 to her case.
After a long struggle, the battle was 16 . Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then 17 something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was 18 to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill 19 her attention. She read these words…
“Paid in full with a glass of 20 .”
(Singed) Dr. Howard Kelly

We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects(缺陷) that can never be changed. “I’m impatient.” “I’m always behind.” “I always put things 1 !” You’ve surely heard them. Maybe you’ve used them to describe ___2 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been 3 for many years—often from 4 childhood. These stories may have no 5 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me, “Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life.” How did these expectations 6 my development? I was never 7 to work on cars or be around 8 . When I was 18, I took the US Army’s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later, 9 , I was at California University, working on my doctors degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn’t do. On the positive side, I 10 down, “research, writing, analysis, and speaking.” On the 11 side, I wrote, “I have no mechanical skills.”
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 12 and told him about my 13 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked, “ 14 is it that you can solve 15 mathematical problems, but you can’t solve simple mechanical problems?”
Suddenly I realized that I didn’t 16 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 17 . At that point, it wasn’t just my family and friends who had been 18 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn’t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself, “You can’t do this!” I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 19 , if we don’t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 20 we choose.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Is bottled water better for you than tap? Or should you choose vitamin-enriched water? Experts say, skip it all.None of these products is likely to make you any healthier.Below, we look at four major myths about the benefits of drinking water. 1 Experts say there’s an easy way to judge.If you are not thirsty, your fluid intake is likely “just right”
Myth No 1:Drink eight glasses each day.
Scientists say there’s no clear health benefit of drinking so much water a day. 2 “Nobody really knows,” says Dr.Stanley Goldfarb, a kidney expert at the University of Pennsylvania.
Myth No.2:Lots of water equals healthier skin.
The body is already 60 percent water. 3 Adding a few extra glasses of water each day has a limited effect.“It’s such a tiny part of what’s in the body,” says Goldfarb.“ It’s very unlikely that one’s getting any benefit.”
Myth No.3: 4
A more accurate statement may be:Drinking water is a helpful tool for dieters.“Water is a great strategy for dieters because it has no calories,” says Madeline Fernstrom of the University of Pittsburgh.“So you can keep your mouth busy without food and get a sense of satisfaction.” But water is not magical, she adds.“Other zero-calorie options such as diet sodas are fine, too.”
Myth No.4:It’s easy to get dehydrated(脱水的)during a workout.
Dehydration sets in when a person has lost 2 percent of his or her body weight. 5 “It’s also obvious that individuals in hot, dry climates have an increased need for water,” says Goldfarb.“But for a walk in the park, no water bottle is necessary.”
A.So where does the standard advice come from?
B.But it’s unclear whether these changes are clinically significant.
C.So for a 200-pound man, this means losing 4 pounds of water.
D.Drinking extra water leads to weight loss.
E.Drink as much water as you can.
F.So, if you take a 200-pound man, he’s 120 pounds of water.
G.But first, how do you know if you’re drinking enough water?
