You might not know it, but there is something wonderful at your fingertips(指尖). You can make people happier, healthier and more hardworking just by touching their arms or holding their hands.
Doctors say that body contact (接触) is a kind of medicine that can work wonders. When people are touched, the quantity of hemoglobin(血红蛋白)—a type of matter that produces that red color in blood—increases greatly. This results in more oxygen reaching every part of the body and the whole body benefits. In experiments, bottle - fed baby monkeys were separated from their mothers for the first ten days of life. They became sad and inactive. Studies showed the monkeys were more probable to become ill than other babies that were allowed to stay with their mothers.
Human bodies react in much the same way. Some years ago, a scientist noticed some well-fed babies in a clean nursery(托儿所) became weak. Yet babies in another nursery were growing healthily, even though they ate less well and were not kept as clean. The reason, he concluded, was that they often had touches from nurses.
Experiments show that most people like being touched. And nearly all doctors believe touches help to reduce patients' fear of treatment. Of course, there are times when a touch is not welcome. But even if we don't like being touched, a smile can make us feel better. Smiling increases blood flow and starts the production of“happy”brain chemicals.
1.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
[ ]
A.if people aren't touched, they'll surely become ill
B.touches usually benefit those who receive them
C.touches often make people who got them angry
D.if there are no touches, there'll be no more hemoglobin
2.If we add a sentence to the passage, which should be the best?
[ ]
A.So why not offer and receive more touches and smile more often?
[ ]
B.Don't you believe the stories of the monkeys and the children?
C.So touch everybody you meet from now on.
D.So don't get angry next time you are touched.
3.The title that best suits the passage should be ________.
[ ]
A.Wonders of Medicine
B.Always Touching Each Other
C.Keeping in Touch
D.Wonderful Touches
