As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded “Is there a doctor on board?” announcement. I’ve been 36 only once-for a woman who had merely fainted. But the 37 made me quite curious about how 38 this kind of thing happens. I wondered what I would do if 39 with a real mid-air medical emergency-without access 40 a hospital staff and the usual emergency equipment. So 41 the New England Journal of Medicine last week 42 a study about in-flight medical events, I 43 it with interest.
The study estimated that there are a(n) 44 of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not 45 ; fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints. 46 13% of them-roughly four a day-are serious enough to 47 a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies 48 heart trouble, strokes, and difficult breathing.
Let’s face it: plane rides are 49 . For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly 50 they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty 51 , but passengers with heart disease 52 experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood. 53 common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis（血栓）-the so-called economy class syndrome（综合症）. 54 happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation（立法）, flights with at 55 one attendant are starting to install emergency medical equipments to treat heart attacks.

Be careful of those who use the truth to deceive (cheat). When someone tells you something that is true, but 36 important information that should be included, he can create a false 37 .
For Example, a man once told me, “I just won a hundred dollars on the 38 . It was great. I 39 that ticket back to the store and turned it in 40 one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner, right? May be, may be not. Then 41 I discovered that he bought two hundred tickets, and only one was a 42 . He was 43 a big loser!
He didn’t say anything that was false, 44 he left out important information 45 . That’s called a half—truth. Half—truths are not technically 46 , but they are just as dishonest.
Untrustworthy candidates in political campaigns often use this 47 . Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her 48 lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she sought another 49 . One of her opponents put an ad saying, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s 50 . However, an honest statement would have been quite different.
Advertisers will sometimes use half—truths. It’s 51 the law to make false claims, so they 52 to mislead you with the truth. An ad 53 blow its own horn, “Nine out of ten doctors lend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It fails to mention that they only ask ten 54 , and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of 55 deception happens too often. It’s a fact of life: lies are lies, but sometimes the truth can lie as well.
36. A. makes out B. leaves out C. tries out D. puts out
37. A. chance B. expression C. impression D. translation
38. A. spot B. lab C. competition D. lottery
39. A. took B. turned C. went D. looked
40. A. with B. as C. like D. for
41. A. later B. formerly C. hardly D. generally
42. A. loser B. winner C. shame D. surprise
43. A. wrongly B. usually C. really D. right
44. A. since B. what’s more C. therefore D. but
45. A. on purpose B. by accident C. in time D. at first sight
46. A. chats B. lies C. failures D. consequences

The “Monday morning feeling” could be a crushing pain in the chest which leaves y
ou sweating and gasping for breath. Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday mornings and doctors blame the stress of returning to work after the weekend break.
The risk of having a heart attack on any given day should be one in seven, but a six-year study helped by researchers at the Free University of Berlin of more than 2600 Germans showed that the average person had a 20 percent high chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on any other day.
Working Germans are particularly not protected against attack, with a 33 percent higher risk at the beginning of the working week. Non-workers, by comparison, appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.
A study of 11000 Italians proved 8 a.m. on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart, and both studies showed that Sunday is the least stressful day, with fewer heart attacks in both countries.
The findings could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks, according to Dr Stefan Willich of the Free University. “We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and cholesterol (胆固醇) but we don’t know what actually causes heart attacks, so we can’t give clear advice on how to prevent them,” he said.
Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes rapid change from sleep to activity, and from the relaxing weekend to the pressures of work.
“When people get up, their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal (内分泌) changes in their bodies,” Willich explained. “ All these things can have an unfavorable effect in the blood system and increase the risk of a clot (血凝块) in the arteries (动脉) which will cause a heart attack.
“When people return to work after a weekend off, the pace of their life changes. They have a higher workload, more stress, more anger and more physical activity,” said Willich.
72．Monday morning feeling, as this passage shows, _________.
A．is not so serious as people thought
B．is harmful to working people in developed countries
C．is the first killer in Germany and Italy
D．is created by researchers in Germany and Italy
73．To protect people from heat attacking, doctors have paid much attention to __________-.
A．people’s working time B．people’s living place
C．people’s diet and life style D．people’s nationalities
74．It can be learned from the passage that heart attack has nothing to do with __________.
A．blood pressure B．heart rate C．hormonal changes D．blood group
75．If the researchers give us some advice to avoid Monday morning feeling, what might it be?
A．Stop working on Monday B．Create a pleasant working environment
C．Get up late on Monday morning D．Do to work with a doctor |

The sun was shining when I got on No. 151 bus. We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one 36 . That’s one of the unwritten rules 37 we see the same faces every day, we prefer to 38 behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using them to keep 39 distance.
As the bus came near the Mile, a 40 suddenly rang out, “Attention! This is your 41 speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your 42 down, all of you.” The papers came down. “Now, turn and 43 the person next to you.”
Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an old woman. I saw her 44 every day. We waited for the next 45 from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning, neighbor!”
But our voices were a little 46 . For many of us, this was the 47 word we had spoken that day. When we said them together, like 48 to people beside us, we couldn’t help 49 . There was the feeling of relief. Moreover, there was the sense of ice being 50 . To say the three words was not so 51 after all.
The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t 52 to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter, a 53 sound I had never heard before in this bus.
When I 54 my stop, I said goodbye to my seatmate, and then 55 the bus. That day I was starting happily.

In a small open courtyard, outside a school building, there were flowers here and there. In the sunshine, a 36 was lying on the grass, reading a book with 37 concentration. Near her, another child was carefully watering the flowers, while a third was 38 with his back against a tree and had a 39 on his knees. He appeared to be drawing or writing something on it. He was _40 in his task, like the first child.
