  Want a glance of the future of health care? Take a look at the way the various networks of people about patient care are being connected to one another, and how this new connectivity is being exploited to deliver medicine to the patient - no matter where he or she may be.

  Online doctors offering advice based on norman symptoms(症状)are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis(远程诊断)will be based on real physiological data(生理数据)from the actual patient. A group from the University of Kentucky has shown that by using personal data assistance plus a mobile phone ,it is perfectly practical to send a patient’s important signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipement, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.

  Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural (countryside) care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster need - especially after earthquakes. On the whole, the trend is towards providing global access to medical data and experts’ opinions.

  But there is one problem. Bandwidth(宽带) is the limiting factor for sending complex (复 杂 )medical pictures around the world,—CU photos being one of the biggest bandwidth users. Communication satellites say be able to deal with the short - term needs during disasters such as earthquakes or wars. But medicine is looking towards both the second - generation Internet and third generation mobile phones for the future of remote medical service.

  Doctors have met to discuss computer - based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should start a new time when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, experts’opinions and diagnosis are common.

 The writer chiefly talks about ________ .

  A. the use of telemedicine

  B. the on -lined doctors

  C. medical care and treatment

  D. communication improvement

 Which of the following statements is true according to the text?

  A. Patients don’t need doctors in hospitals any more.

  B. It is impossible to send a patient’s signs over the telephone.

  C. Many teams use telemedicine dealing with disasters now.

  D. Broadband communications will become cheaper in the future.

The“problem”in the fourth paragraph refers to the fact that ________ .

  A. bandwidth isn’t big enough to send complex medical pictures

  B. the second - generation of Internet has not become popular yet

  C. communication satellites can only deal with short - term needs

  D. there is not enough equipment for spreading the medical care

  Every August on the island of Heimaey, off the southern coast of Iceland, young people often take a walk along the street throughout the night.What’s more, their parents allow them to stay out.Why? The children of Heimaey are going to save young puffins-small black-and white seabirds.

  The cliffs above the town are home to a large group of puffins.The birds dig holes all around the cliffs.These holes are their homes.Their young stay in the holes for about seven weeks.Then they begin to leave.Some move slowly on their undeveloped wings and fell down to the northern Atlantic Ocean that surrounds Heimaey.There they swim, which they can do naturally, and learn to dive for fish.Others, however, may lose their way at night and find themselves in the town instead.On the ground, the young seabirds are in trouble.Because their wings are not fully developed, they cannot take off quickly to sea and safety.The birds then become a good meal for cats and other animals.

  For many years, islanders have helped the young puffins.Early at night in late August, children carrying thick paper boxes and lights hurry to the seashore to catch puffins.They spend most of the night running after the birds.They put the birds they’ve caught in boxes and take good care of them.

  The next morning the children take the puffins to the ocean and set them free.The birds will live at sea until they are at least two years old.Then they will return to the cliffs to build homes of their own for their families.

  Will the children of Heimaey always come to save puffiness? “Yes, ”answered the boy.“We look forward to it.The best time for us is setting the birds free.”

The last day of the final examination arrived. In a large eastern university, on the steps of one building, a group of students were talking about the exam that was going to begin in a few 26. On their faces was confidence. This was their 27 exam—then on to graduation and jobs.

  Some talked of jobs they already had, others talked of jobs they 28 get. With the certainty of four years of college, they felt 29 and able to take control of the world.

  The coming exam, they knew, would be a(n) 30 task, as the professor had said they could bring 31books or notes they wanted, requesting only that they did not 32 each other during the test.

  33 they entered the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. And smiles 34 on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.

  Three hours had passed 35 the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class.

  He looked at the 36 faces before him, and then asked, “How many completed all five questions?” 37 a hand was raised.

  “How many answered four?” Still no hand.

  “Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats.

  “One, then? Certainly somebody finished 38 .”But the class remained silent.

  The professor put down the papers. “That is exactly what I 39 ,” he said. “I just want you to know that, although you have completed four years of study, there are 40 many things about the 41 you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are relatively common in 42 practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all 43 this course, but remember—even though you are now college graduates, your education had just 44 .”

The years have weakened the name of the professor, but not the 45 he taught.

  When they get to school age they have not learnt any self control or discipline.Teachers continually complain   8   this problem and measures   9  (take)to combat the situation.But I think the situation to the problem lies with the families,   10   need to be more aware of the future consequences of spoiling their children.
