Bringing Art into Hospitals.
The medical world is slowly realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play an important role in helping patients to recover(康复).
As part of a nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the museums and into public places, some of the country’s best artists have been called in to change older hospitals and to soften the hard, modern buildings. Of the 2500 national health service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have collections of art in passages(走廊), waiting areas and treatment rooms.
These recent movements were first started by one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970’s. He felt the artist had lost his place in modern society, and that art should be enjoyed by more people.
A common hospital waiting room might have as many as 5000 visitors each week. What a good place to hold exhibitions(展览) of art! Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975. Believed to be Britain’s first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates.
The effect is amazing. Now in the passages and waiting rooms the visitors experience a full view of fresh colors, playful images(形象) and restful courtyards.
The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. A study has shown that a patient who had a view onto gardens needed half the number of strong pain killers compared with(与……相比) patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at.
【小题1】Some best artists of Britain have been called in to_____

A.set up new hospitals
B.make the corners of hospital collect paintings
C.bring art into hospitals
D.help patients recover from serious illness
【小题2】After the improvement of the hospital environment, _____
A.patients no longer take drugs to kill their pains
B.patients don’t have to stay long in hospital
C.patients need fewer pain killers when they suffer from an illness
D.patients feel happy in hospital
【小题3】It can be inferred from the passage that_____
A.the role of hospital environment is being recognized
B.hospital artists have done more than doctors
C.exhibitions attract more people in hospitals than in museums
D.the hospitals is a better place for people than the museum in Britain

Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed. When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to get rid of. It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits. Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live. Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.  
There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help. Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.
  Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on. These are all easily formed habits. Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided(避免).
  We should keep away from(远离) all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.
【小题1】________ are formed little by little.

A.Good habitsB.Bad habits
C.Both good habits and bad habitsD.Either good habits or bad habits
【小题2】The underlined word "them" in the first paragraph refers to ________.
A.bad habitsB.good habitsC.children D.other persons
【小题3】Generally speaking, it's difficult for one _____ and easy for them _____which should be avoided.
A.to form bad habits; to form good habits
B.to form good habits; to form bad habits
C.to form such habits as will be good; to get rid of bad habits
D.to get rid of bad habits; to form good habits
【小题4】Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits?
A.Because habits are of great help to every one of us.
B.Because a man can never get rid of a habit.
C.Because it's hard and sometimes even impossible to throw away bad habits.
D.Because we are forced to do them again and again.

A team of scientists proved that seals had a very good sense of hearing. These men trained blind seals to expect food when they heard sounds. The seals always began snapping(猛咬) when a strong signal was sounded.
It was proved that even a soft signal, a considerable distance away, could make these sea animals respond. That should make the fisherman who makes much noise while working, or talks loudly, start thinking.
The same team of scientists also trained seals to recognize different sounds. One bell-tone meant food ,two bell-tones meant no food. In the beginning, the seals made mistakes when the two bell-tones were sounded. They were given a light tap after each mistake. The seals were good learners. They easily learned to tell the difference between the sounds.
67.Why was it necessary to use blind seals? Because they______.
A. were unable to use sight for clues    B. had better hearing
C. were waiting to be fed             D. were the only animals to be found
68. To those seals strong signal meant_____.
A. snapping     B. nothing      C. food       D. a light tap
69. The article doesn’t say directly but suggests that fishermen usually think______.
A. seals have no good sense of hearing   B. seals have good sense of hearing
C. seals can only recognize bell sounds   D. seals can not hear soft or long distant sounds
70. Which title will be the best to suit the article?
A. Clever Seals                      B. Smart Learners 
C. An Underwater School             D. An Unknown School

E
In the old days, children were familiar with birth and death as part of life. Now this is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters who have never been close by during of the birth a baby and have never experienced the death of a family member.
  Nowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we send them to a hospital, where children are forbidden to visit patients— even when those patients are their parents. This deprives(剥夺)the dying patient of family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experience.
  Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed about 500 in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcome.
  It is important for family members, and doctors and nurses to understand these patients’ communication in order to truly understand their needs, fears and fantasies. Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly, and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their reat need to be informed, to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to deal with the coming of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance before death.
82.The elders of today's Americans________ .
  A. are often absent when a family member is born or dying
  B. usually see the birth or death of a family member  
C. are unfamiliar with birth and death
  D. have often experienced the fear of death as part of life
83.Children in America are deprived of the chance to________.
  A. visit a patient at hospital                                 B. visit their family members
  C. look after the patients                                              D. learn how to face death 
84.The need of a dying patient for people to accompany him shows________.
  A. his wish for communication with other people               
B. his fear of death
  C. his unwillingness to die                          
D. he feels very upset about his condition
85.It may be concluded from the passage that________.
  A. dying patients should be truthfully informed of their condition
  B. dying patients are afraid of being told of the coming of death
  C. most patients are unable to accept death until it can’t be avoided
D. dying patients are not likely to be informed about their condition
