It is no longer unusual for a spouse or relative to donate a kidney to a loved one, but the number of Americans who have given a kidney to a friend, a co-worker or even a complete stranger has risen sharply from 68 in 1994 to 176 in 1998. There are many reasons. F

9、irst, its possible to live a normal life with only one kidney. (The remaining kidney enlarges to make up most of the difference.) In addition a kidney from a live donor lasts longer than a kidney taken from someone who has died suddenly. But the biggest change in the past few years is that transplan

10、t surgeons have started using laparoscopic techniques to remove the donor kidney through a much smaller incision, and this can cut recovery time for the donor from six weeks to four weeks. Just because you do something, however, it doesnt mean you should. Donating a kidney means undergoing an operat

So, what are the risks? “As with any major operation, there is a chance of dying, of reoperation due to bleeding, of infection, of

12、vein clots in the legs or a hernia at the incision,“ says Dr. Arthur Matas, director of the renal-transplant program at the university of Minnesota Medical Center in Minneapolis. Even laparoscopy, a relatively new technique for kidney donation, is not risk-free. Doctors estimate that chances of dyin

13、g from the procedure are about 3 in 10,000. Theres no money to be made; selling an organ is illegal. But the recipients insurance normally covers your operation and immediate aftercare. Your costs can include hotel bills, lost pay during recovery or possible future disability. Although transplant ce

Never let anyone, not even a close relative, pressure you into giving up an organ-no matter if youre healthy. “T

15、heres often the feeling that youre not a good friend, father, mother if you dont do this,“ says Arthus Caplan, director of the University of Pennsylvanias center for Bioethics. Some transplant centers will invent a “medical problem“ on behalf of those who are reluctant to donate but feel they cant s

There are many possible cause, but it is still controversial which are most blameworthy. Those factors which have been mentioned most frequently are thepresence of f

21、oreign particles and other irritants in the air (smoke particles, smog, exhaust fumes), and the smoking of cigarettes and cigars. 2 Numerous studies have demonstrated a striking correlation between the death rate from lung cancer and smoking habits. Among heavy smokers 21 to 30 cigarettes per daythe

22、 mortality rate from lung cancer is nearly 17 times the rate from nonsmokers. It is expected the death rate among women will increase as the present high rate of smoking among women has its effect. 3 Sometimes cases of lung cancer are discovered at the time an X-ray is taken for the purpose of detec

23、ting tuberculosis. Too often, however, a current emphasis upon the danger of exposure to radiation from X-ray machines can frighten people away from routine chest X-rays.

29、ter giving birth. “This is obviously a bittersweet time for our family,“ Justin Torres, the womans brother-in-law, said in a statement. Susan Torres, a cancer-stricken, 26-year-old researcher at the National Institutes of Health, suffered a stroke in May after the melanoma (黑瘤 ) spread to her brain.

30、 Her family decided to keep her alive to give her foetus (胎儿 ) a chance. It became a race between the foetus development and the cancer that was destroying the womans body. Doctors said that Torres health was getting worse and that the risk of harm to the foetus finally outweighed the benefits of ex

31、tending the pregnancy. Torres gave birth to a daughter by Caesarean section (剖腹产手术 ) on Tuesday at Virginia Hospital Center. The baby was two months premature and weighed about a kilogram. She was in the newborn intensive care unit. Dr Donna Tilden-Archer, the hospitals director of neonatology (新生儿学

32、 ), described the child as “very vigorous.“ She said the baby had responded when she received stimulation, indicating she was healthy, Doctors removed Torres from life support early Wednesday with the consent of her husband, Jason Torres, after she received the final sacrament (圣礼 ) of the Roman Cat

33、holic Church. “We thank all of those who prayed and provided support for Susan, the baby and our family,“ Jason Torres said in a statement. “We especially thank God for giving us little Susan. My wifes courage will never be forgotten.“ English-language medical literature contains at least 11 cases s

34、ince 1979 of irreversibly brain-damaged women whose lives were prolonged for the benefit of the developing foetus, according to the University of Connecticut Health Center. Dr Christopher McManus, who coordinated care for Susan Torres, put the infants chances of developing cancer at less than 25 per

35、 cent.

Maybe it got the name “common cold“ because its more common in winter. The fact is, though, being

39、 cold doesnt have anything to do with getting one. Colds are caused by the spread of rhinoviruses, and, at least so far, medical science is better at telling you how to avoid getting one than how to get rid of one. Children are the most common way cold viruses are spread to adults, because they have

40、 more colds than adults an average of about eight per year. Why do kids seem so much more easily to get colds than their parents? Simple. They havent had the opportunity to become immune to many cold viruses. There are more than 150 different cold viruses, and you never have the same one twice. Bein

41、g infected by one makes you immune to it but only it. Colds are usually spread by direct contact, not sneezing or coughing. From another persons hand to your hand and then to your nose or eyes is the most common route. The highest concentration of cold viruses anywhere is found under the thumbnails

42、of a boy, although the viruses can survive for hours on skin or other smooth surfaces. Hygiene is your best defense. Wash your hands frequently, preferably with a disinfectant soap, especially when children in your household have colds. But even careful hygiene wont ward off every cold. So, what wor

43、ks when a coughing, sneezing, runny nose strikes? The old prescription of two aspirins, lots of water, and bed rest is a good place to start. But youll also find some of the folk remedies worth trying. Hot mixtures of sugar(or honey) , lemon, and water have real benefits. 32 According to the essay,

44、you may have a cold because_. （ A） it is caused by the cold winter weather （ B） the spread of rhinoviruses gets people infected （ C） because another persons coughing passes the cold to you （ D） because you wash your hands too often 33 The best way to keep yourself from getting colds is_. （ A） to kee

46、t their thumbnails are dirty （ D） they dont like eating lemon 35 When you are having a cold, _. （ A） it is always the same kind of cold that you had last time （ B） it may be the same kind of cold that you had last time （ C） it is certainly not the same kind of cold that you had last time （ D） it is

47、probably not the same kind of cold that you had last time 36 When one is having a cold, he often has some symptoms EXCEPT_. （ A） coughing （ B） having a sore throat （ C） having a runny nose （ D） having a stomachache 36 Do Patients Trust Doctors Too Much? Earlier this year, the American College of Sur

48、geons, the national scientific and educational organization of surgeons, conducted a nationwide survey that found that the average patient devotes an hour or less to researching his or her surgery or surgeon. While prospective patients worry about the costs or complications of an operation, they don

49、t necessarily look for information that would address their concerns. In fact, more than a third of patients who had an operation in the last five years never reviewed the credentials of the surgeon who operated. Patients are more likely to spend time researching a job change (on average, about 10 hours) or a new car (8 hours) than the operation they are about to submit to or the surgeon who wields (支配 ) the knife.
