On the other 6 , the major disease threatening Americans today are cancer, stroke, high blood pressure, coronary (冠心病) disease, etc. 7 them, the doctor's bag of tricks is limited.

　　So the first important lesson is not to 9 too much from drugs. If you can accept the 10 that the war against many of our most devastating (有破坏性的) diseases is, at best, a holding operation 11 than an inevitable (不可避免的) victory, it will do a great deal to ease your life as well as 12 of your doctor. Too many 13 employ great pressures 14 doctors to prescribe for every symptom (病状) 15 when such treatment is necessary or dangerous.

　　Unfortunately, the medical profession is guilty of taking part, to a certain 16 , in the wrongful action. The patient 17 demands a shot of penicillin for every sniffle and sneeze may be 18 the injection (注射) by an unwilling physician 19 he is certain that if he does not, the patient will search until he 20 a doctor who will.
