Is there anything more important than health I don’t think so. "Health is the greatest wealth," wise people say. You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.
If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor.
The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest Xrayed. After that, he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.
Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.
He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: "Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is." The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked much more cheerful and much happier. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.
"But you know, doctor," the man went on saying, "it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age./

Passage Two
A jury in Northern California has found a doctor caused elder abuse. Family thought the doctor did not give enough pain medication to a dying patient. The jury gave one-and-a- half million dollars to the patient’s family.
The patient’s children say they were sure they would lose. But the jury said the doctor was reckless and caused elderly abuse.
The patient’s son says he wanted to tell the true story. His father had too much pain.
The 85-year-old patient, William Bergman, died of cancer patient in February 1998. He spent six days at a hospital in Castro Valley, California. His children say he had too much pain because Dr. Wing Chin didn’t give enough painkillers.
The trial lasted one month. Dr Chin said he used the usual pain control system. Dr. Chin’s lawyer said that the doctor used the usual standard of care.
Family members said they didn’t directly ask the doctor for more medication. They trusted that the doctors knew how to control the pain.
The problem of not enough pain medication is widespread. Doctors might be more careful in the future.
California laws don’t allow pain and suffering awards for the people who have died. This case was for elder abuse. The jury’s award of one-point-five million dollars is likely to be reduced to 250-thousand dollars because the state has a cap on awards.
A:the doctor guilty of murder B:B, the family guilty of elder abuse C:the family guilty of doctor abuse D:the doctor guilty of elder abuse
Passage Three
The most important thing you can do for a family member or friend who is depressed is to help him or her get an appropriate diagnosis and treatment. This may involve encouraging him or her to stay with treatment until symptoms begin to abate. On occasion, it may require making an appointment and accompanying your loved one to the doctor. It may also mean monitoring whether he is taking medication. Encourage your friend to obey the doctor’s orders about the use of alcoholic products while on medication. The second most important thing is to offer emotional support. This involves understanding, patience, affection, and encouragement. Do not despise feelings expressed, but point out realities and offer hope. Do not ignore remarks about suicide. Report them to your friend’s therapist. Invite your friend for walks, outings, to the movies, and other activities. Be gently insistent if your invitation is refused. Encourage participation in some activities that once gave the person pleasure, such as hobbies, sports, religious or cultural activities, but do not push him to undertake too much too soon. Do not accuse your friend of faking illness or of laziness, or expect him "to snap out of it". Eventually, with treatment, most people do get better. Keep that in mind, and keep reassuring him that, with time and help, he will feel better.
If you’re unsure where to go for help, check the Yellow Pages under "mental health", "health", "social services", "suicide prevention". You can also click the Web sites listed on the right. People and places that will make referrals to, or provide, diagnostic and treatment services include: family doctors, community mental health centers, university -- or medical school -- affiliated programs, and local medical or psychiatric societies. In times of crisis, the emergency room doctor at a hospital may be able to provide temporary help for an emotional problem, and will be able to tell you where and how to get further help.
A:Internet B:emergency room doctor C:university D:family doctor
Where did the doctor meet one of his patients
A:In the doctor's houses. B:In the patient's house. C:On the road side. D:In the hospital.
The doctor wanted the garage ______.
A:to repair his car B:to sent him to a hospital C:to pull his car back D:send for another doctor
