Have you ever suffered a broken bone? The medical term for a broken bone is a fracture.But there are different kinds of fractures.A single fracture is when a bone is broken in just one place.You may have heard the term hairline fracture.This is a single fracture that is very small,like the width of a hair.A complete fracture is when the bone comes apart.

When a bone is broken in more than two places or gets crushed,the name for it is a comminuted fracture.

Still another kind is a bowing fracture.This happens with a bone that bends but does not break.It happens mostly in children.

Have you ever heard of a greenstick fracture? This is when a bone is bent and breaks along only one side,like a young stick of wood.

Another kind of break is an open or compound fracture.This is when the bone breaks the skin.This is very serious.There is both bone damage and a risk of infection in the open wound.

A lot of things happen as the body reacts to an injury  like a  broken  bone.You  might  suddenly  feel lightheaded.You might also feel sick to your stomach.

People who are seriously injured can go into shock.They might feel cold and unable to think clearly.Shock requires immediate medical attention.

But while broken bones can be painful,they are generally not life­threatening.Treatment depends on the kind of fracture.A doctor takes X-rays to see the break and sets a broken bone to make sure it is in the correct position.

Severe breaks may require an operation to hold the bone together with metal plates and screws.

Next,a person usually gets a cast put arount the area of the break.Casts are usually worn for one to two months.The hard bandage holds the bone in place while it heals.

In some cases,instead of a cast,a splint made of plastic or metal will be placed over the area to restrict movement.

Doctors say broken bones should be treated quickly because they can restrict blood flow or cause nerve damage.Also,the break will start to repair itself,so you want to make sure the bone is lined up correctly.

Bones need calcium and vitamin D to grow and reach their full strength.Keeping your bones strong with exercise may also help prevent fractures.

Wearing safety protection like elbow pads and leg guards during activities is a good idea.If you think these might be restrictive ,try a cast.

Most people know that they will feel homesick when they go to live in another country,but many people do not think about the cultural adjustment or changes they will have to make.When people go to another country to study,work,or live,they have to adjust to many differences.They have to change the way they eat,dress,travel,talk,and even think.

Adjusting to the new culture and becoming comfortable in it takes time.Kalvero Oberg,a researcher,has found that most people go through similar stages of cultural adjustment although the stages are longer or shorter for different people.These stages are called the “Honeymoon Period”,“Culture Shock”,“Initial Adjustment”,“Mental Isolation”,and“Acceptance and Integration”.Each stage has certain characteristics.

In the first stage,the newcomers enjoy the new culture.All the new experiences are exciting for them.

In the second stage,they begin to feel homesick and suffer other problems of cultural adjustment.They feel lonely or sad.Everyday life seems filled with problems.Simple activities like making a phone call,paying a bill,traveling to work or school,or shopping seem filled with problems.The newcomers feel completely exhausted.They are too tired to think or even do anything.

In the third stage,the newcomers begin to adjust and life seems easier.

In the fourth stage,the newcomers realize that they still miss their own culture,especially their family and friends.They may not yet be able to communicate easily in the new culture.Feelings of isolation and loneliness return.The newcomers may feel like an island.unconnected to the people and culture around them.

In the final stage,the newcomers accept the difficulties and problems of everyday life.They accept the culture and people around them and establish a daily routine.Then they find that they have adjusted to their new life and enjoy their new friends and life.

An old woman went suddenly blindness. She promised a doctor      1.    

a lot of money if he could make her to see again.“If you fail,”     2.    

she said,“you will get nothing.”The doctor agreed.

The doctor soon discovered what is wrong with her, but he decided     3.    

not to cure her right away. Instead of, each time he visited, he secretly 4.    

took some of his things. When he had taken everything he wanted       5.    

he cured her blindness and set her a large bill. Now when the old woman  6.    

could not see again, she noticed that all her things had gone and she   7.    

refused to pay the bill. So the doctor brought her before a judge.     8.    

“What the doctor says is true,” she said to a judge, “but I say I am not cured,

9.    

because I still cannot see any of the things in my house.”

The old woman won her case and the doctor went away unhappy without getting his pay.     10.
