14.The Making of a Surgeon
How does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a"surgeon"?As my year as chief resident (进修医生) drew to a close,I asked myself this question on more than one occasion.
The answer,I concluded,was(50)D.When you can say to yourself,"There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently (胜任地),treat just (51)B or better than any other surgeon"--then,and not until then,you are indeed a surgeon.I was (52)D that point.
Take,(53)A,the emergency situations that we met almost every night.The first few months of the year I had (54)C the ringing of the telephone.I knew it meant another critical resolution to be (55)A.Often,after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular (56)D,I'd have trouble getting back to sleep.I'd (57)B all the facts of the case and,often,wonder if I had made a poor decision.More than once at two or three in the morning,after lying (58)A for an hour,I'd get out of bed,dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself.It was the only way I could find the (59)A of mind I needed to relax.
Now,in the last month of my residency,(60)C was no longer a problem.Sometimes I still couldn't be sure of my decision,but I had learned to accept this as a (61)B problem for a surgeon.I knew that with my knowledge and experience,any decision I'd made was certain to be a (62)C one.It was a nice feeling.
This all sounds conceited (自负的) and I guess it is--but a surgeon needs conceit.He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he's bothered by the (63)D and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine.He has to feel that he's as good as and probably better than any other surgeon in the world.Call it conceit--call it self-confidence; whatever it was,I had it.And it is,I am sure,what a person has to make a(n) (64)B in life.

50.A.self-serviceB.self-appreciationC.self-respectD.self-confidence
51.A.more thanB.as well asC.other thanD.as long as

Young children may face serious health risks from popular energy drinks,such as Monster,Red Bull and Rock Star,(41)G causing heart problems and other life-threatening conditions,according to the findings of new researches.
During a presentation at the annual Cardiac Scientific Sessions 2014 meeting of the American Heart Association (AHA),researchers warned about the risk of allowing young children(42)Kto the energy drinks,which contain high amounts of caffeine(咖啡因) and other stimulants.
Researches  (43)Ehat the energy drinks are not intended for young children and are not safe for them to consume.Steven Lipshultz,M.D.,lead author of the study,is calling for a warning on all energy drink cans and bottles,warning parents of the risk of allowing children to drink them.
Researchers say it is difficult to know exactly how much caffeine is contained in each can or bottle of energy drinks,since they are often (44)A as dietary supplements (补充物),which allow the manufacturers to avoid FDA regulations.
Energy drink manufacturers have compared the amount of caffeine in their products to that in hot drinks sold in coffee houses,but their products are often packaged in very large sizes and they are not sold in (45)Fnvironments like coffee houses,which typically would not serve young children.Energy drinks are widely available in (46)I stores next to traditional soft drinks,typically packaged in very similar cans and using similar marketing techniques.
Some energy drinks in many of the popular lines can contain up to 400mg of caffeine per can.In comparison,a cup of coffee typically has around 100mg of caffeine.Caffeine poisoning can occur in adults at levels higher than 400mg a day; however,children under 12can (47)B  caffeine poisoning at only 2.5mg per 2.2pounds of body weight.
A study published in September (48)Jup the new findings,revealing energy drinks may cause serious heart problems.French researchers revealed the popular energy drinks may be linked to (49)C risk of irregular heartbeats and even sudden death.
The FDA is  (50)H investigating health concerns surrounding the drinks after numerous negative event reports have been made in recent years connecting energy drinks to severe injuries and deaths.

6.The high-protein,low-carbohydrate(碳水化合物) diets many people turn to for weight loss might have potentially harmful long-term effects on the  colon,a small study indicates.
In the study,UK researchers found that a protein-heavy,low-carb diet created certain changes in the colon that could contribute to colon cancer risk.The study itself does not show whether high-protein diets really raise the risk of any colon diseases,but the findings raise that possibility.
Diets relatively high in protein and lower in carbs have been shown to help heavy people lose weight."People should not be discouraged from losing weight,"Dr Flint said.However,he added,they should make sure that any weight loss plan includes adequate amounts of fiber and a high protein intake over months to years might have ill effects on the colon.
The findings are based on 17overweight men who followed three short-term diets:a one-week menu plan to keep their weight; a four-week high-protein diet with reasonable amounts of carbohydrates; and a four-week high-protein diet low in carbs.
On average,the study found when the men were on the high-protein diets,they had higher levels of substances known as N-nitroso compounds(亚硝基化合物) and other metabolites(代谢物) that have been linked to cancer.And when they were on the high-protein,low-carb diet,they had lowered amounts of fiber-originated compounds thought to be protective against cancer.
Exactly what those changes might mean for a person's health is not clear,But Flint said that the findings suggest that people should be cautious about consuming too much protein and too little fiber over a long period.In general,experts recommend that adults get about 28grams of fiber per day-though it's not known whether that's enough for someone on a high-protein weight-loss diet.

71.What is the best title of the text?B
A.Plan a Healthy Diet
B.Take Care of Your Colon
C.How to Lose Weight
D.How to Protect against Cancer
72.The underlined word"colon"in Paragraph 1probably refers to"A".
A.an organ     B.intelligence   C.a habit    D.behaviour
73.The study shows that high-protein,low-carb diets mayC.
A.affect your mood     B.lower cancer risks
C.harm your body       D.keep your figure
74.It can be inferred from the text thatD.
A.we shouldn't take the study seriously
B.weight problems are hard to solve
C.it is better to follow a low-carb diet
D.people should be cautious to lose weight
75.The author is intended toB.
A.advise how to lose weight
B.introduce a scientific finding
C.describe a research process
D.talk about healthy diets.

3.One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister.On this occasion,the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girl friend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later,I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.
I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out.I called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful,grateful voice on the other end of the line,all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
It was,I should point out,after 10 p.m.,when the two younger children should have been in bed.and when the two older children should have been answering the phone."I'll give him a lesson,"I said.I decided they must be outside.Why they might be outside at 10:30 on a winter night I had no idea,but it was the only explanation I could come up with.
Finally,in desperation,I called his girlfriend's house.After what seemed like countless rings,his girlfriend answered."Yes,"she said brightly,"He's right here."
He came on the phone.I was not my usual calm,rational(理智的)self.After all,one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can't trust modern teenagers."Where are the children?"I said.He said they were with him.They had done nothing wrong.My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend's house just for ice cream and cake.This was too good to be believed.Well,it turns out that I shouldn't have believed it.It was only part of the truth.
The following Saturday evening we were at my parents home,celebrating my birthday.My oldest son gave me the children's gifts.Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children,dressed in their best clothes,and wearing their most wonderful expressions.They are pictures to treasure a lifetime,all taken by the father of my son's girlfriend.

A.two younger children had already been in bed
B.the children were preparing a birthday gift for her

D.there was no one answering the telephone

A.The author didn't believe what her son had told her.
B.The author had complete confidence in her son.

4.It's usual for the coins we carry around in our pockets to have the head of a famous person on them.It is usually the head of a leader or a renowned (有名望的) figure from the country's past.
The UK's royal mint (皇家造币厂),however,has just done something unusual:It has released a limited number of coins featuring a rabbit.Not a real-life animal,but a storybook rabbit.Peter Rabbit,the beloved character invented by British illustrator (插图画家) Beatrix Potter (1866-1943),can now be seen on the shiny brand new British 50pence coin.
Peter Rabbit,for those who don't know,first became known to the public in 1902.Potter published The Tale of Peter Rabbit in that year after inventing her charming bunny years before to comfort a sick child.Peter Rabbit is young and naughty.He's famous for stealing vegetables.In the tale he ignores his mother's orders and sneaks (偷溜) into Mr McGregor's garden,eating as many of Mr McGregor's carrots as he can.Peter appears in other books by Potter too.He always gets into scrapes (困境),whether on his own or with others.But he never learns!
The image of Peter is as famous as his stories.Like other characters from Potter's books,he's a very human-looking animal.He wears a blue jacket with golden buttons (纽扣) just like a young boy.The closeness of Peter to real children is,of course,why his books have been so successful.The Peter Rabbit series has sold more than 150million copies in 35languages.
The new Peter Rabbit 50pence coin will mainly be available in the Lake District,a very beautiful region of lakes and mountains in the Northwest of England.Many tourists visit this part of Britain just because of the Beatrix Potter connection.Her best-known creation,Peter Rabbit,has come a long way since he first appeared as a playful,always-hungry young rabbit in 1902!
