Honesty, my mum always used to tell me ,is the best policy. Of course, this didn’t include her when she told me that if I didn’t eat all my vegetables Father Christmas would find out and wouldn’t give me any presents.

But when it comes to medicine, I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients. After all, the doctor-patient relationship is based on trust , and therefore honesty is essential. Or so I thought.

I had just started working in geriatrics (老年病科), Mr. McMahon was brought in when his belly was found very swollen. I took a mcdical history from his daughter who’d accompanied him in the ambulance. She’d been his main carer for years. I stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history. “Has he lost any weight recently?” I asked, “Well, it’s funny you should mention that ,but yes.” she said slowly. There was silence for a few moments. “Why? What are you worried about?” she asked . I hesitated. She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth. “Well, we need to prove it’s not cancer.” I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.

Half an hour later, a nurse called me: “Mr. McMahon’s daughter broke downshe said you told her he had cancer.” My heart sank. By the time I arrived at the ward, my consultant was already there, explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer. I stood silently at the end of the bed. My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr. Mcmahon, she turned to me. “Why on earth did you do that?” she asked to disbelief. I looked at her and bit my lip. “She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.” I said, hanging my head. “And give her more to worry about?” replied my consultant. “You don’t say the word ‘cancer’ until it’s confirmed. Even if you suspect it , think very carefully before you tell people.”

As it turned out, it wasn’t cancer. But I did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one they’re sometimes selective in what they hearand as a doctor it’s important to be mindful of this. In being truthful, I’d made the situation worse.

  59. The purpose of the frist two paragraphs is to show that the author __________.

       A. misunderstood the doctor-patient relationship

B. was anxious to receive Christmas gifts

C. regarded honesty as the best policy

D. had an unhealthy eating habit

  60. The author’s consultant was angry with him because___________.

       A. he told the daughter what he suspected.

B. he delayed running the necessary tests.

C. he failed to confirm the patient’s disease.

D. he forgot what the consultant had advised.

  61. The author hung his head (the underlined part in Para. 4) because he was feeling _______.

       A. guilty                      B. hurt                 C. disappointed           D. helpless

  62. What lesson has the author learnt from his experience?

       A. Learning from parents is necessary.

B. Jumping to a conclusion is dangerous.

C. Telling the truth may not always be the best solution.

D. Selecting pleasant words may not be the perfect policy.

 

C

       In Greek mythology(神话), the gods punished Sisyphus by forcing him to roll a rock up a steep hill for eternity(来世). But he was probably better off than if they’d forced him to sit and stare into space until the end of time, conclude the authors of a new study on keeping busy. They found that people who have something to do, even something pointless, are happier than people who sit around.

       “The general phenomenon I’m interested in is why people are to busy doing what they are doing in modern society,” says Christopher K. Hsee, of the University of Chicago. “People are running around, working hard, the way beyond the basic level.” Sure, there are reasons, like making a living, earning money, and so on. But, Hsee says, “I think there’s something deeper: We have extra energy and we want to avoid idleness.”

       In a study 98 students were asked to complete two surveys. After they had completed the first they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive the next one. They were given a choice of either handing in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. Whichever option they chose, they received a chocolate bar. Not everyone chose to go to the faraway locaton. Two-thirds chose the lazy option. Yet those who chose to stay busy by going to the faraway location were found to be happier than those who had stayed put.

       But if the chocolate bars offered at the  two locations were different, they were more likely to choose the far locationbecause they could make up a good and acceptable reason for the trip, Hsee and his colleagues say.

       Hsee thinks it may be possible to use this principlepeople like being busy, and they like being able to show being busy right or reasonableto benefit society. “If we can find a way for idle people to engage in activity that is at least not harmful, I think it is better than destructive business,” he says. Hsee himself has been known to  give a reserch assistant a useless task when he doesn’t have anything to do, so he isn’t sitting around the office getting bored and depressed.

  63. The author starts the passage with the Greek mythology story to ________.

       A. make it easiar to understand the passage

B. draw readers’ attention to Greek culture

C. show Greek people enjoyed being busy

D. bring about the subject of the passage

  64. According to Hsee, people are busy in modern society because they want to _________.

       A. make others think they are not lazy

B. keep their energy at the basic level

C. earn more money to support their family

D. avoid the state of having nothing to do

  65. The underlined phrase “stayed put” in Paragraph 3 probably means __________.

       A. stayed awake                  B. kept occupied   C. got around              D. remained there

  66. How does Hsee’s assistant probably feel while performing a task?

       A. Blue.                 B. Empty.                     C. Contented.                     D. Trapped.

 

D

       Which are you more likely to have with you at any given moment-your cell phone or your wallet? Soon you may be able to throw your wallet away and pay for things with a quick wave of your smart phone over an electronic scanner.

       In January, Starbucks announced that customers could start using their phones to buy coffee in 6,800 of its stores. This is the first pay-by-phone practice in the U.S., but we’ere likely to see more wireless payment alternatives as something called near field communication (NFC) gets into America’s consumer electronics. Last December, some new smart phones which contain an NFC chip were introduced to the public.

       Already in use in parts of Asia and Europe, NFC allows shoppers to wave their phones a few inches above a payment terminal – a contact- free system built for speed and convenience. But before NFC becomes widely adopted in the U.S., a few problems need to be worked out, like who will get to collect the profitable transaction(交易)fees. Although some credit card providers have been experimenting with wave-and- pay systems that use NFC-enabled credit cards, cell phone service providers may try to muscle their way into the point-of-salePOSmarket. Three big cell phone service providers have formed a joint venture(合资企业)that will go into operation over the next 15 months. Its goal is “to lead the U.S. payments industry from cards to mobile phone.”

       The other big NFC issue, apart from how payments will be processed, is security. For instance, what’s to stop a thief from digitally pick-pocketing you? “We’re still not at the point where an attacker can just brush against you in a crowd and steal all the money out of your phone,” says Jimmy Shah. A mobile- security researcher, “Users may also be able to set transaction limits, perhaps requiring a password to be entered for larger purchases.”

       Still uneasy about this digital-wallet business? Keep in mind that if you lose your smart phone, it can be located on a map and remotely disabled. Plus, your phone can be password protected. Your wallet isn’t.

  67. What is predicted to happen in the U.S.?

       A. The expansion of cellphone companies.

B. The boom of pay-by-phone business.

C. The disappearance of credit cards.

D. The increase of Starbucks sales.

  68. The NFC technology can be used to __________.

       A. ensure the safety of shoppers

B. collect transaction fees easily

C. make purchase faster and simpler

D. improve the quality of cellphones

  69. Three cellphone service providers form a joint venture to __________.

       A. strengthen their relationship

B. get a share in the payments industry

C. sell more cellphones

D. test the NFC technology

  70. According to the passage, what can users do if they lose their smart phones?

       A. Stop the functioning of their phones.

B. Set up a password.

C. Get all the money out of their phones.
