Many doctors know the story of Mr Wright .In 1957 he was diagnosed(诊断) with cancer,and given only days to live. He heard that scientists had discovered a new medication, Krebiozen, which was effective against cancer and he begged the doctor to give it to him. His physician,Dr Philip West finally agreed. After Mr Wright had been given an injection on a Friday afternoon,the astonished doctor found his patient out of his “death bed”.
Two months later,Mr Wright read medical reports that the medication was fake. His condition immediately got worse again. “Don’t believe what you read in the papers,” the doctor told Mr Wright. Then he injected him with what he said was “a new super-refined double strength” version of the drug. Actually,there was no drug,just a mix of salt and water. Later,Mr Wright was the picture of health for another two months until he read an official report saying that Krebiozen was worthless. He died two days later.
This story has gone unnoticed by doctors for a long time and the idea that a patient's beliefs can make a disease go away has been thought of as too strange. But now scientists are discovering that the placebo effect(宽慰作用) is more powerful than anyone has ever thought. They are also beginning to discover how such unbelievable results are achieved. Through new techniques of brain imagery,it can be shown that a thought,a belief or a desire can cause chemical processes in the brain which can have powerful effects on the body. Scientists are learning that some body reactions are not caused by information coming into the brain from the outside world,but by what the brain expects to happen next.
Placebos are “lies that heal”，said Dr Anne Harrington,a historian of science at Harvard University. “The word ‘placebo’ is Latin for ‘I shall please’ and it is typically a treatment that a doctor gives to anxious patients to please them,” she said. “It looks like medication,but has no healing ingredients whatsoever."”

A. got cancer B. almost died
C. felt better D. gave up What caused
26. Mr Wright's death according to the story?

A. To explore the biology of human brains.
B. To explain why people get cancer.
C. To analyse how placebos work.
D. To question Mr Wright's story.
28. What does Dr Anne Harrington think of the placebo effect?

Single-sex schools are better than mixed schools Message 1 — posted by Jane,Amsterdam
I think mixed-sex schools are the only way for children to leam,because it's natural. In higher education and their working life,they will be mixed so it makes sense for them to be mixed at school. School should reflect the real world.
Message 2 — posted by Hans,Germany
My reaction to this is very clear. For me,single-sex schools are much better,and the statistics show that they get better exam results,particularly at secondary level. Anything which helps children pass exams must be a good thing.
Message 3 — posted by Bill, USA
Boys and girls learn in very different ways. I feel that they should be educated separately so teachers can focus on their different needs. The way I see it is that if you have a zoo,you don，t put the lions in with the zebras!
Message 4 — posted by Martin,London
My view on this is that it doesn，t really matter. What is important is the curriculum (课程) , and keeping students interested. I was a teacher and we had a lot of truancy (逃学) to deal with,and problems with students missing lessons because they found them boring. Never have a timetable with Maths as the first class on Monday morning!
Message 5 — posted by Emily,Sydney
I don，t think there is any question that mixed schools are better. There is too much competition at single-sex schools,which often means that students don't make enough progress. I also think there is more bullying (欺凌) at single-sex schools, where children are picked on because of the increased competition. Single-sex schools lead to a “dog eat dog” situation.
32. What is Jane's attitude towards single-sex schools?
A. Negative. B. Favorable.
C. Objective. D. Unconcerned.
33. Both Hans and Bill hold that.
A. boys and girls should be taught separately
B. teachers should meet students’ different needs
C. schools should focus on students’ exam results
D. mixed schools are better than single-sex schools
34. Martin stresses the importance of .
A. school management
B. students’ time awareness
C. training students to obey rules
D. exciting students’ interest in courses
35. Emily uses “dog eat dog” to show .
A. her support for single-sex schools
B. students，determined effort to succeed
C. the fierce competition in single-sex schools
D. the better education results in single-sex schools
