Recently a man came to me, because he was told that there is fluid(积液) around his heart. After trying many drugs which were of no use to reduce the fluid, the doctor told him the only other choice was to have an operation. He refused because he knew that every illness has a mental cause and that if he had the operation but did not clear the mental cause, the fluid would return. At last, he searched the Internet to find a metaphysical healer(玄学治疗师), and he found me.

       The mental cause of his disease was an experience of breaking up five years ago with several friends, whom he had known for over twenty years. This experience broke his heart. Not knowing how to “mend” his broken heart, his body created a “repair” by surrounding his heart with fluid to protect it from the sad feelings.

       Our work focused on reminding him of the feelings of being loved and forgiving his friends. Months later, his hearts was mended and the fluid disappeared. He left my office after the final session with a smile on his face and a spring in his step.

       The key is: to create a healthy body, you must be healthy not only in body, but also in mind.

       To be mentally healthy, you need to build up strong relationships. Creating strong relationships will insure that you are accompanied by a network of loving persons. It is important for building a support system that lifts your spirits. Even when you are alone, you will not feel lonely or upset. Strong relationships are not spaceships——they are not hard to build.

In order to cure his illness, which of the following ways did the patient try?

       ?? taking many medicines            ?? having an operation

?? seeing a metaphysical healer     ?? visiting different doctors

A. ????                        B. ????                 C. ??????                     D. ????????

The underlined word “It” in Paragraph5 refers to “________”.

       A. a mentally healthy body                         B. a repaired heart

       C. a network of loving persons                   D. a support system

What is the main idea of the passage?

       A. Loving others will keep you in good spirits.

       B. Heart illness can be cured without operation.

       C. Creating strong relationships will keep you healthy.

       D. Spiritual health is necessary for physical health.

Which of the following views may the writer agree to?

       A. Old friendship is easy to lose.                 B. A good friendship is a useful medicine

       C. The best doctor is your own body           D. It needs many efforts to build relationships

If this passage is continued with another paragraph, what would it be probably about?

       A. How to build strong relationships           B. How to protect your heart

       C. How to keep healthy mentally                D. How to live a healthy life

It’s certain that the following tale is a nice example that can teach us a good lesson. One day, a young man  36 begged from door to door along the street.  37  an old wallet in hand, he was asking for a few coins to buy something to eat. He kept complaining about his bad 38  and kept wondering why those who had so much money were never   39  and were always desiring more.
“As for me, if I had only enough to eat and to wear, I would not want anything more."
Just at that moment Goddess Fortune  40  the beggar among the crowd and approached him, greeting, “Hi, young man, I have wished to   41  you for a long time. If you open your wallet, I will pour my gold into it. But keep in mind that I will do that only on this   42 : All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold belonging to you; but every piece falling upon the ground 43  become dust, worth nothing. Are you clear?”
“I see. Now I’m ready. ” said the beggar with confidence.
“Then you should   44 ! It’s obvious that your wallet is a/an   45 one, so don’t load it too heavily,” said the Goddess Fortune. 
The excited beggar could hardly   46 to have gold. He quickly opened his wallet, and a   47  of yellow coins was poured into it. The wallet became heavier and heavier.
“Is that enough? Isn’t it cracking? Will your wallet strong enough for more?” warned the Goddess.
“Never  48 .It’s still strong enough now” replied the beggar firmly.
The wallet was filled with so many coins that the beggar’s hands began to   49 . “Ah, if only the golden stream would   50  forever! Just a little more,” said the beggar, “  51  just a handful or two.”
“There! It’s full. The wallet will   52 .” warned the Goddess again, but the beggar insisted, “ I know it will  53  a little more, just a little more.”
One more piece was added and the wallet split. The   54  fell upon the ground and became dust. The greedy beggar had now   55  but his broken wallet.
