Doctors" moonlighting is becoming popular in hospitals around China. It has not only raised a lot of heated discussions in the media, but also has caught the attention of the central government in Beijing. On December 26, a spokesman of the Ministry of Health stressed that the ministry was firmly against doctors" moonlighting, while strict regulations should be applied to doctors taking parttime jobs, the Xinhua News Agency reported. Last year, the Ministry of Health sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed up the reform of their personnel systems. According to the notice, medical organizations can hire medical experts as parttime doctors, but such activities should take place under the hospital"s management and regulations. As for moonlighting-meaning that a doctor provides medical service without the permission of the original hospital-such activities go against the Law on Practicing Doctors of the People"s Republic of China, the Xinhua News Agency reported. In China, doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital. However, as China"s medical personnel system reform developed, it has been recognized that medical human resources, just like human resources in other areas, should be shared by the whole society. But on the other hand, doctors" taking parttime jobs should follow the relative regulations applied in the medical field. First of all, they should follow relative government laws and regulations. They should also follow the rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for. In addition, they should pay taxes for their income from the parttime jobs. What matters most is that they should first finish their regular jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensure qualified and safe medical treatment. |

Grammarphobia is the fear of grammar. This fear attacks almost everybody at one time or another, and it"s most likely to strike during English or language arts classes. Even people who love reading and writing have been known to get feverish and insecure when they are aware of the possibility of turning in homework with grammar or spelling mistakes. Though writing may be enjoyable, being corrected is definitely not! Grammarphobes, it"s time to put your fears behind you.Grammar isn"t that dreadful (可怕的). Here"s why. Let"s assume you like hearing and telling stories and that you enjoy joking with friends. You probably also like emailing and instantmessaging. Well, what do you think makes all these possible? Grammar! Grammar is simply the art of putting words together to make sentences. Whenever you use words to express yourself, you"re using grammar. You do this all the time without even thinking. So why think about it? Because good grammar helps you convey the ideas you intend. If your words aren"t right, or if they are not in the right order, the person you are talking to might get the wrong idea. This can have embarrassing results. Grammar helps us understand each other. It"s like a manual (手册) for assembling the words in your head. You have to put your words together the right way if you want them to make sense. They can"t do what you want if they aren"t put together correctly. What if everybody you know had a different manual? How would you agree on what others" words mean? People with different grammar manuals might be speaking different languages. Communicating is similar to playing cards. To make sense, we have to play the same game, by the same rules. What are the rules for playing the game of English? You already know most of them without having to open a book. |

Far more people in India have access to a mobile phone than to a toilet, according to a UN study. India"s mobile users totaled 563.73 million at the last count, enough to serve nearly half of the country"s population. But just 366 million people-around a third of the population-had access to proper sanitation (卫 生设施) in 2008, said the study published by the UN University, a UN thinktank. "It is a tragic irony (讽刺) to think in India, a country now wealthy enough that roughly half of the people own phones, so many people cannot afford the basic necessity and quality of a toilet, " said UN University director Zafar Adeel. Adeel heads the UN University"s Institute for Water, Environment and Health, based in the Canadian city of Hamilton, which prepared the report. Worldwide, an estimated 358 billion dollars is needed between now and 2015 to achieve the UN Millennium Development Goal (MDG) of halving the proportion of people with inadequate (不充分的) sanitation from 2000 levels. "Proper sanitation could do more to save lives, especially those of young people, improve health and help pull India and other countries in similar circumstances out of poverty than any alternative investment, " Adeel said. Poor sanitation is a major contributor to waterborne diseases (水传播疾病), which in the past three years alone killed an estimated 4.5 million children under the age of five worldwide, according to the study. The report gave a rough cost of 300 dollars to build a toilet, including labour, and materials.The world could expect a return of up to 34 dollars for every dollar spent on sanitation through improved productivity and reduced poverty and health costs, said Adeel.He said improving sanitation was an economic and humanitarian opportunity of historic proportions. |

Each year about a quarter of a million Americans study abroad. For many of them, a summer or a semester in a foreign country now involves more than just sitting in classrooms and hanging out with other American students. Instead, they are encouraged and sometimes required to be involved in the local communities they are studying in. "It"s absolutely important that they know something about how people in other parts of the world live and think, and how they behave," says William Finlay, head of the sociology department at the University of Georgia. In 2008, he co-founded a study abroad program with South Africa"s Stellenbosch University. It combines traditional academic in-class learning with community involvement. "We"ve been working with a non-government organization in the township. Our students typically either work with little children in day care centers or work in the library and teach very basic computer skills to young children," says Finlay. The three-week program proved to be an unforgettable experience for Hillary Kinsey. She says, " It was interesting to learn the history of the area and then talk to these people and see what the social dynamics were, and how certain groups felt about other groups." When Hillary Kinsey returned home from South Africa, she and other students in the program established a non-profit group. Kinsey says the group wants to contribute to advancing education and development in South Africa. "One of the purposes of the group is that we hope to raise money and awareness about the situation where those people live and help to promote any sort of educational development that we can, " Kinsey added. While many study abroad programs focus on helping Americans to learn foreign languages, others take a more intensive approach. "In all of our locations, we place students with local roommates," says Mark Lenhart, director of CEF Academic Programs, which sends more than a thousand students to China, Korea and other countries each year. He says American students benefit from such one-on-one interactions, in spite of the challenges they face. Lenhart says, "They have to adjust to the local life. This will enable students to become more employable when they graduate." |

The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun, but the man with the portable computer in business class. In the last 15 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference. The source of this interference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers, radio and cassette players and mobile telephones. RTCA, an organization which advises the aviation(航空) industry, has recommended that all airlines ban such devices from being used during "critical" stages of flight, particularly take-off and landing. Some experts have gone further, calling for a total ban during all flights. Currently, rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines. And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are reluctant to enforce a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flights. The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft"s computers. Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not. The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable (易受损的) to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio system in order to damage navigation equipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger who can"t hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music"s too loud.

3. Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because _______. |
A. they don"t believe there is such a danger as radio interference. B. the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be proved. C. most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette players. D. they have other effective safety measures to fall back on. |
4. Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplane"s computers?______ |
A. Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane. B. Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with. C.

Many Chinese have been greatly shocked by the traffic accident caused by the drunk driver Sun Weiming, who has killed five and injured some others in Chengdu, Sichuan. However, such a case is not rare. Today, traffic accidents may have been regarded as a social problem. The car has killed and disabled more people in its brief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of the blood on the street flows actually from rude behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless but just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one"s actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even far beyond carelessness that can be imagined. Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can change drivers" reactions, slow their judgment, and make them blind to the dangers that might otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep his/her emotions under control. Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem isn"t only put upon drivers. Street walkers regularly ignore or break traffic regulations. They are blamed in most vehiclewalker accidents, and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road. Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicles have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through regular road inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to make people believe that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road. |
1. Traffic accidents may be regarded as a social problem because _____. |
A. auto driving has become dangerous and harmful in today"s society B. people usually pay no attention to law and morality when driving C. they have caused serious psychological problems among drivers D. the car has killed and disabled more people than any weapon in history |
2. Who are NOT mentioned to be responsible for the road accidents in the passage? |
A. Careless bicycleriders. B. Careless people walking in the street. C. Irresponsible auto drivers. D. Irresponsible auto manufacturers. |
3. By discussing solutions to traffic accidents, the author seems to be _____. |
A. doubtful and hopeless B. angry and disappointed C. objective and concerned D. anxious and annoyed |
