10、 work for the federal governments Public Health Service. Physicians are among the best-paid professionals in the United States. In the 1980s, it was not uncommon for medical doctors to earn incomes of more than $100,000 a year. Specialists, particularly surgeons, might earn several times that amount
11、. Physicians list many reasons why they deserve to be so well rewarded for their work. One reason is the long and expensive preparation required to become a physician in the United States.

For the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer optimism was fundamentally wrong banal and corrupting, while the father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud simply declared it to be neurotic. 2. Experience shows that lookin
19、g on the bright side of life does have advantages and recent scientific evidence points to the positive mindset(思想倾 向 ) as being beneficial to health. In other words optimists live longer. 3. That was the conclusion reached by experts at the Mayo Clinic in the US State of Minnesota who evaluated ans
20、wers given by people to a set of questions in the 1960s. Of the 729 candidates, 200 had died and according to scientists, there were a disproportionate number of pessimists among them. 4. The points more on the pessimism scale-that was the difference between “slightly pessimistic“ and “averagely pes
21、simistic“-were enough to boost a persons chances of dying by 19 percent, according to the study by prominent psychologist Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania. 5. The study does not say why pessimists die but an older survey taken among children in San Francisco and Los Angeles makes it
22、 clear that personal attitude towards the world is a key factor in the longevity equation. 6. The latest evidence to support the theory that optimists tend to cope better with illness of all kinds has been provided by professor Ralf Schwarzer of Berlins Free University who questioned 600 heart and l

There have been suggestions that optimists do not stay healthier but rather turn into optimists later because they
24、enjoy good health. Numerous surveys have taken into account a persons state of health at the outset (最初 ) and the effect remains the same. 8. Studies have shown that optimists do not blind themselves to reality either. They thus interpret it in a positive way. “Sublimating (vi.升华 ) and denying thing
25、s tend to alter reality but illusions are a way of seeing reality in the best light,“ said California. 9. German science journal Bild der Wissenschaft, which carries a major article on the topic in its current March issue, commented on “the right attitude“ to having a tumor. 10. It seems psychothera

It has been
32、 estimated that some 30,000 different diseases attack our economic plants; forty are known to attack com, and about as many attack wheat. The results of unchecked plant diseases are ail too obvious in countries that have marginal food supplies. The problem will soon be more widespread as the populat
33、ion of the world increases at its frightening rate. Even in countries that are now amply fed by thek agricultural products there could soon be food shortages. It is easy to imagine the consequences of some disastrous attack on one of the major crops; the resulting famines could kill millions of peop
34、le, and the resulting hardship on other millions could cause political upheavals disastrous to the order of the world. Some plants have relative immunity to great many diseases, while others have a susceptibility to them. The tolerance of a particular plant changes as the growing conditions change.
35、A blight may be but a local infection easily controlled; on the other hand it can attack particular plants in a whole region or nation. An example is the blight that killed virtually every chestnut tree in North America. Another is the famous potato blight in Ireland in the last century. As a result
36、 of that, it was estimated that one million people died of starvation and related ailments. Plant pathologists have made remarkable strides in identifying the pathogens of the various diseases. Bacteria may include invade a plant through an infestation of insect parasites carrying the pathogen. A pl
37、ant can also be inoculated by man. Other diseases might be caused by fungus which attacks the plant in the form of a mold or smut or rust. Frequently such a primary infection will weaken the plant so that a secondary infection may result from its lack of tolerance. The symptoms shown may cause an er
38、ror in diagnosis, so that treatment may be directed toward bacteria which could be the result of a susceptibility caused by primary virus infection. 31 How many diseases are known to attack wheat? ( A) Around 30,000. ( B) Around 140. ( C) Around 29,960. ( D) Around 40. 32 According to this passage,
39、which of the following would a plant disease result in if left unchecked? ( A) A world war. ( B) Border conflicts. ( C) Relations of grain and meat. ( D) Social upheavals. 33 What is the main idea of the second paragraph? ( A) Some plants have relative immunity to a great many diseases, while others
40、 have a susceptibility to them. ( B) The tolerance of a particular plant changes as the growing conditions change. ( C) A blight killed virtually every chestnut tree in North America. ( D) A blight may be a national infection. 34 According to the passage, some plant diseases can be prevented by_. (
41、A) killing parasites ( B) inoculation ( C) killing insects ( D) improving growing conditions 35 Which of the following statements is NOT true? ( A) Some plant diseases may be caused by bacteria. ( B) Some plant diseases may be caused by pathogens. ( C) Some plant diseases may be caused by fungus. (
42、D) Symptoms are always helpful in identifying diseases. 36 Male and Female Pilots Cause Accidents Differently Male pilots flying general aviation (private) aircraft in the United States are more likely to crash due to inattention or flawed decision-making, while female pilots are more likely to cras
43、h from mishandling the aircraft. These are the results of a study by researchers at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health. The study identifies the differences between male and female pilots in terms of circumstances of the crash and the type of pilots error involved. “Crash
44、es of general aviation aircraft account for 85 percent of all aviation deaths in the United States. The crash rate for male pilots as for motor vehicle drivers, exceeds that of crashes of female pilots,“ explains Susan P. Baker, MPH, professor of health policy and management at the Bloomberg School
45、of Public Health. “Because pilot youth and inexperience are established contributors to aviation crashes, we focused on only mature pilots, to determine the gender differences in the masons for the crash.“ The researchers extracted data for this study from a large research project on pilot aging and
46、 flight safety. The data were gathered from general aviation crashes of airplanes and helicopters between 1983 and 1997, involving 144 female pilots and 267 male pilots aged 40-63. Female pilots were matched with male pilots in a 1:2 ratio, by age, classes of medical and pilot certificates, state or
47、 area of crash, and year of crash. Then the circumstances of the crashes and the pilot error involved were categorized and coded without knowledge of pilot gender. The researchers found that loss of control on landing or takeoff was the most common circumstance for both sexes, leading to 59 percent
48、of female pilots crashes and 36 percent of males. Experiencing mechanical failure, running out of fuel, and landing the plane with the landing gear up were among the factors more likely with males, while stalling was more likely with females. The majority of the crashes-95 percent for females and 88
49、 percent for males-involved at least one type of pilot error. Mishandling aircraft kinetics was the most common error for both sexes, but was more common among females(accounting for 81 percent of the crashes) than males (accounting for 48 percent). Males, however, appeared more likely to be guilty of poor decision-making, risk-taking, and inattentiveness, examples of which include misjudging weather and Visibility or flying an aircraft with a known defect. Females, th
