A moment’s drilling by the dentist may make us nervous and upset．Many of us cannot stand pain．To avoid the pain of a drilling that may last perhaps a minute or two，we demand the “needle” —— a shot of Novocain （一种麻醉药） —— that deadens the nerves around the tooth.
Now it’s true that the human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it．This helps us adjust to the world．Without our nerves——and our brain．Which is a bundle of nerves —— we wouldn’t know what’s happening．But we pay for our sensitivity．We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body．The history of torture（酷刑）is based on the human body being open to pain.
But there is a way to handle pain．Look at the Indian fakir（苦行僧）who sits on a bed of ails．Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm，and feel no pain．This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain．The big thing in withstanding（经得起）pain is our attitude toward it．If the dentist says, “This will hurt a little,” it helps us to accept the pain．By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation, we can handle the pain without falling apart．After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.
1．A system of nerves enables us to
A．suffer pain B．avoid pain C．feel pain D．enjoy pain
2．The sentence “But we pay for our sensitivity.” in the second paragraph implies that .
A．we should pay a debt for our feeling
B．we have to be hurt when we feel something
C．our pain is worth feeling
D．when we feel pain, we are suffering it
3．The author uses the Indian faki as an example to show that .
A．Indians are not at all afraid of pain
B．people may be senseless of pain
C．some people are able to handle pain
D．fakirs have magic to put needles right through their arms
4．_______ helps us most to handle pain.
A．Attitude B．Interest C．Nerves D．Life
5．The author's attitude towards pain is______.
A．pessimistic B．optimistic C．critical D．practical

Without a moment’s delay, he fixed a few needles into the skin on my head here and there, Before long, I felt thoroughly relieved(缓解疼痛).

79 Mayfair Road
Plumton, Kent
October 10th
Dear Rosemary,
I was very glad to get your letter this morning. I really ought to have written to you---it was my turn, I know----but I have been terribly busy. The children seem to take up all my time. I am thinking of sending Ann to a nursery school. She’ll be four next month. Baby has just started to walk and doesn’t give me a moment’s peace. But you know what it is like! How are all your children? I’m sure they love living in the country.
I’m afraid we can’t come over to see you next Sunday, as you suggest. Tom’s mother is coming to spend the day with us. What about the Sunday after that----- the twenty-second? We are free that day and should love to come. We’re longing to see your house.
Let me know, then, if the Sunday after next suits you. May we come for lunch? We’d like to leave fairly early in the evening to avoid the heavy traffic on the roads.
Love from us all,
Edna
