　　Using the mind to fight diseases

　　Psychology has a new application in the field of medicine. Many doctors, together with their

　　patients, are looking for alternative methods of treatment of physical problems. In large hospitals and research centers, modern methods of therapy seem to focus on the physical disease without considering the patients' mental state. Patients may feel that they are being treated impersonally, like broken machines. Some doctors have recognized this as a problem. They are now using psychological therapy with patients to use their own minds to fight their diseases. Because the patient is working with the medicine and the doctors against the disease, his or her attitude changes. The patient does not wait for the medicine and treatment to cure him or her, but instead the patient joins in the fight.

　　Mental therapy

　　The doctor knows that a disease affects a patient's body physically. The body of the patient (in this case, a man) changes because of the disease. He is not only physically affected, but as the physician knows, he also has an emotional response to the disease. Because his mind is affected, his attitude and behavior change. The medical treatment might cure the patient's physical problems, but the patient's mind must fight the emotional ones. For example, the studies of one doctor, Carl Simonton, M. D., have shown that a typical cancer patient (in this case, a woman) has predictable attitudes. She typically feels depressed, upset, and angry. Her self-image is poor and she feels self-pity. As a result, her behavior changes. Because of her constant depression, she acts unfriendly toward her family, friends, doctors, and nurses. Such attitudes and behaviors prevent the patient from getting well. Therefore, a doctor's treatment must help the patient change her attitudes. Simonton's method emphasizes treatment of the whole patient by treating both the body and the mind.

[NextPage]

　　The attitude of a cancer patient who is receiving radiation therapy, an X-ray treatment, can become more positive. The physician who is following Simonton's psychological treatment plan suggests that the patient imagine that he or she can see the tumor(肿瘤)in the body. In the mental picture, the patient "sees" a powerful beam of radiation like a million bullets of energy. The patient imagines the beam hitting the tumor cells and causing them to shrink. For another cancer patient, Dr. Simonton might make another suggestion. This patient, with a different kind of cancer, needs to take capsules and pills several times a day. The doctor asks the patient to imagine the medicine going from the stomach into the bloodstream and to the cancer cells. The patient imagines that the medicine is like an army fighting the diseased cells and sees the cancer cells gradually dying. His or her blood carries away the dead cells. Both the medical therapy and the patient's positive attitude fight the disease.

　　Doctors are not certain why this mental therapy works. However, this use of psychology does help some patients because their attitudes about themselves change. They become more confident because they use the power within their own minds to help stop the disease.

　　Suggestion therapy

　　Another application of using the mind to help cure disease is the use of suggestion therapy. Before making the suggestion, the doctor helps the patient to concentrate deeply. The patient (in this case, a man)thinks only about one thing. He becomes so unaware of other things around him that he seems to be asleep. He is said to be in a trance (催眠状态). Then the physician makes "a suggestion" to the patient about the medical problem. The patient's mind responds to the suggestion even after the patient is no longer in the trance.. In this way, the patient uses his mind to help his body respond to treatment.

　　Suggestion therapy helpful for both adults and children

　　Doctors have learned that this use of psychology is helpful for both adults and children. For example, physicians have used suggestion to help adults deal with the strong pain of some disease. Furthermore, sometimes the adult patient(in this case, a woman) worries about her illness so much That the anxiety keeps her from getting well. The right suggestions may help the patient to stop being anxious. Such treatment may help the patient with a chronic(慢性的)diseases. Asthma (哮喘)is an example of a chronic disorder. Asthma is a disease that causes the patient to have difficulty in breathing. The patient starts to cough and sometimes has to fight to get the air that he or she needs. Psychology can help relieve the symptoms of this disorder. After suggestion therapy, the asthma patient breathes more easily.

　　Physicians have learned that the psychological method is very useful in treating children. Children respond quickly to the treatment because they are fascinated by it. For example, Dr. Basil R. Collison has worked with 121 asthmatic children in Sydney, Australia, and had good results. Twenty-five of the children had excellent results. They were able to breathe more easily, and they did not need medication. Another forty-three were also helped. The symptoms of the asthma occurred less frequently, and when they did, they were not as strong. Most of the children also felt better about themselves. Doctors have also used suggestion to change habits like nail-biting, thumb-sucking, and sleep-related problems.

　　Response from the medical world

　　Many professional medical groups have accepted the medical use of psychology because they recognize its value. Nobody knows how suggestion works; however, doctors have learned that psychology has important applications in medicine.

　　注意：此部分试题在答题卡2上作答。

　　Passage One

　　Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

　　A detailed and thorough research project undertaken by the Open University recently reported that their evidence appears to show that competition between nearby schools does not significantly improve academic standards. Indeed, their report inclines to the opposite outcome; the exam results may actually decline where competition is fiercest.

　　When the further education sector was " privatized" a few years ago, competition between colleges became truly fierce, at least in urban areas where potential students could choose between several of them. Colleges appointed highly paid marketing directors and gave them large budgets; some even "bribed" interested students with promises of hundreds of pounds if they completed certain courses satisfactorily.

　　Fully competitive markets being a philosophical foundation of Britain's recent governments, it was no surprise to hear claims that many educational developments of the 1990s would move us towards a free market in secondary education---giving youngsters and their parents a free choice of where to study. However, the secondary sector did not become particularly competitive while, admittedly, the consumers have been given more information, which is one aspect of a truly free market. It is very rare that two nearby schools with at least some empty places are similar enough to be comparable yet different enough to be rankable; only where that occurs can there be true competition.

[NextPage]

　　The Open University research was probably not flawed---but its conclusions are. This is because the team did not really compare areas having true competition (as just defined) with areas that do not.

　　But, let us all breathe a sigh of relief. Secondary schools had started of late to move in the marketing direction----considering allocating scarce resources of staff and money to persuading the pupils that their schools are the best in the area. No schools could afford to do that properly, so it is a relief to realize this research tells us we don't have to.

　　Competition? We haven't got time for it! Let's spend our small budget in teaching and learning, not in competing and marketing.

　　57. It is indicated in the passage that competition between schools results in .

　　A) higher enrollment rate

　　B) lower academic standard

　　C) higher marketing expenses

　　D) privatization of further education

　　58. Real competition can happen only when .

　　A) academic standard is improved

　　B) there are comparable schools with different educational qualities

　　C) students have different interests

　　D) schools of all areas have sufficient budget for their development

　　59. According to the passage, the free market in secondary education .

　　A) only provides consumers with more information

　　B) is more competitive than the higher education market

　　C) means there will be more intensive competition than in colleges

　　D) is a real surprise to Britain's recent government

　　60. The author of the passage feels relieved that .

　　A) secondary schools have to market themselves

　　B) most secondary schools have scarce resources of staff and money

　　C) the research by Open University proves that most secondary schools are the best in its area

　　D) schools needn't prove that they are the best

　　61. What might be the author's attitude towards competitions between nearby schools?

　　A) The author is in favor of various kinds of competition.

　　B) The author is indifferent to any competition and its result.

　　C) The author is not certain of the effect of competitions.

　　D) The author is against inter-collegiate competitions.

[NextPage]

　　Passage 2

　　Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.

　　Going online is a favorite recreation for millions of American children. Almost10 million (14 percent) of America's 69 million children are online. The Internet both entertains and educates children, however, there are some possible negative consequences for children who access kid-based Web sites. Advertising on kid-based Web sites has become both a rapidly growing market for consumer companies and a concern for parents. With a click on an icon, children can link to advertisers and be granted tremendous spending power. Children are an important target group for consumer companies. Children under age 12 spent $14 billion, teenagers another $67 billion, and together they influenced $160 billion of their parents' income.

　　Many critics question the appropriateness of targeting children in Internet advertising and press to require that children be treated as a "special case" by advertisers. Because children lack the analytical abilities and judgment of adults, they may be unable to evaluate the accuracy of information they view, or understand that the information they provide to advertisers is really just data collected by an advertiser. Children generally lack the ability to reject the release of personal Information to an advertiser, an even greater problem for children when they are offered incentives (刺激)for providing personal information, or when personal information is required before they are allowed to register for various services. Children may not realize that in many cases these characters provide hotlinks directly to advertising sites.

　　The Internet does present some challenges for advertisers who want to be ethical in their

　　marketing practices. Many advertisers argue that we underestimate(低估)the levels of media

　　awareness shown by children. By the age of seven or eight most children can recognize an advertisement and know that its purpose is to sell something and are able to make judgments about the products shown in advertisements. However, this somewhat optimistic and decidedly libertarian view of children runs aground when we realize that they are (like a surprising number of adults) unable to judge accurately between entertainment and advertising. Adults can fend for themselves but, as marketers, we should be explicit(明确的) about our purpose when advertising to children on the Internet.

　　62. According to the first paragraph, children as an Internet market .

　　A) are becoming increasingly rational

　　B) are using Internet at an earlier and earlier age

　　C) have created a growing advertising market

　　D) are overtaking the adult market due to their spending power

　　63. Targeting children for advertising is controversial because children .

　　A) are unable to analyze and judge advertisements

　　B) are unable to cooperate since they are too young

　　C) often give off information that may be dangerous to them.

　　D)are not ready to evaluate advertisements or information requests

[NextPage]

　　64. Many advertisers defend the targeting of children because .

　　A) no actual sales take place

　　B ) it is up to parents to monitor their children

　　C) children understand what an advertisement is trying to do

　　D)children are provided a game in return for the information

　　65. One reason why children are unable to resist giving personal information on the Internet isthat .

　　A) they feel they must follow an adult's orders

　　B) it is presented in connection with entertainment

　　C) they do not know that the information is going to be read by someone

　　D) due to their inability to distinguish an advertisement from a non-advertisement

　　66. In the passage the author wants his marketers to understand that .

　　A) advertising to children must stop

　　B) a libertarian view in advertising is unethical

　　C) advertising to children must have a clear purpose

　　D) children must be treated differently when advertising
