21、Is your doctor telling you the truth? Possibly not, according to a new survey in Health Affairs of nearly 1,900 doctors around the country.
The researchers found that 55% of the doctors said that in the last year they had been more positive about a patient s prognosis (预断) than his medical history. And 10% said they had told their patients something that wasn’t true. About a third of the doctors said they did not completely agree that they should disclose medical errors to their patients, and 40% said they didn’t feel the need to disclose financial ties to drug companies.
Really? The study’s lead author, Dr. Lisa Iezzoni, a medicine professor at Harvard Medical School and director of the Mongan Institute for Health Policy at Massachusetts General Hospital, was surprised to learn how dishonest her colleagues were. “Some of the numbers were larger than I expected they might be,” she says.
Why the white lies? In some cases, Iezzoni says it was for self-protection. Nearly 20% of the doctors admitted that they didn’t disclose a medical error to their patients because they were afraid of being punished for improper treatment. In other cases, it may have been for the patient’ s benefit. Some might spare an anxious patient from hearing about the slightly abnormal results of a lab test, for example, if it has no negative effect on the patient’s health.
“After all doctors are human too,” says Iezzoni. “They don’t want to upset their patients, they don’ t want their patients to look unhappy or burst into tears. But they also need to be professionals; so they need to tell themselves that if there is a difficult truth they need to tell their patients, they need to work out a way of communicating that effectively.”
That’s important for doctors to appreciate, because as well-intentioned as their lies may be, other studies consistently show that patients prefer the truth, and would rather hear unpleasant news than remain ignorant about an awful medical condition. Being fully informed is a way that patients can prepare for whatever might occur. Therefore, it is necessary for doctors to learn to express themselves.

22、In July 1984, the famous author and runner Jim Fixx died of a heart attack while running. One lesson from his death: just because you run does not mean you are safe from heart problems.
Thirty-five years later, Boston Marathon race director Dave McGillivray is repeating that message. “Being fit and being healthy aren’t the same things,” he says.
McGillivray, a lifelong runner, should know. Six months ago, he had heart surgery (手术) after having heart pain and shortness of breath while running.
McGillivray’s family had a long history of heart problems. “I honestly thought that through exercise, proper medicine, good sleep and the right diet, I’d be fine,” he says. “But that’s not true.”
Exercise such as running, walking, cycling and swimming is known to make many health problems become better. But new research is questioning the value of “extreme exercise.”
In a study, researchers in Spain found that full marathons (马拉松) might hurt the heart.
“Running is a good activity, but the act of running doesn’t make you too strong to field. People who have a family history of heart problems should talk with their doctor before running a marathon, especially, men who are older than 40,” Dr. Kevin Harris, a cardiologist, says.
McGilivray says his doctor allowed him to race in the Boston Marathon. He has joined in it every year for 47 years. “My new experience is:” he says, “If you feel something, do something. You might not get a second chance.”
【1】Jim Fixx was also a/an ________ except running a marathon.

【2】What happened to McGillivray while running?

A.discuss running is quite a good exercise
B.question the value of “extreme exercise”

D.show running makes you strong enough
23、For young kids, sharing isn't easy to understand.However, this skill is important for kids as they begin to socialize with their peers, and at last have an increased sense of self-awareness and understanding.More often than not, parents can easily think of a moment in their kid's childhood where shouts of "No!" or "Mine!" played a regular role in their daily life.
Socializing your kids early by getting them to connect with schoolmates or kids who are around the same age as them is the first step. You might find that kids naturally learn many things by observing one another. While argue may happen from time to time, learning to play well with others will help your kids become more aware of the effects of their actions.
Sharing is often linked with kids' understanding of fairness, so teaching kids to take turns with toys or other hems that you might want them to share, and they will reduce their natural control over something. Remind kids that they will get their turn, which means that they must learn to be patient.
In their early years, kids learn more than you might think from simply observing the actions of those around them. If you have older kids, give them the opportunity to take the lead by having them share items like snacks or toys with their younger sisters or brothers. Experiencing generosity and sharing first hand will be a major help when it comes to learning to do it themselves.
Most importantly, kids should form the habit of sharing. When you see your kids using their new skills by sharing items with their friends or family members, be sure to advert to their actions. By noticing your kids' progress, there will only be room for further improvement of their sharing.
【1】Waiting for toys to play with can help young kids ________.
A.become more patient

【3】The underlined part "advert to" in the last paragraph most probably means " ________".

【4】What's the main idea of the text? ________
