                                    B 

          History tells us that footwear was one ot the first things ancient people learned to make. Footwear helped them across rocky paths or hot sands without injuring themselves. The earliest footwear we know of was simply a piece of plaited(編織的) grass or leather tied to the feet.

          The ancient Egyptians seem to have inyented the first footwear with a firm sole(鞋底) 一 sandals. Egyptian royalty usually wore sandals that had a different style from those with lesser status (身份) , while slaves were not allowed to wear anything on their feet. The sandal is still the basic form of footwear in many countries, particularly those with a hot climate,whereas in cold climates,an entirely different type of shoe appeared — the moccasin — a slipper-shaped shoe made of soft but strong leather.

          The Greeks were the first to develop shoes with heels (鞋跟) . Then,in the Middle Ages,shoes with long points at the toe became very chic for the nobilitv These shoes were often very difficult to wear. Other trends followed,with square-toed shoes,wide shoes,and even shoes that could make a woman stand two feet taller. Not surprisingly,these sometimes led to accidents. Even today,fashion rather than comfort often leads to the kind of shoes women wear.

           Mechanical shoemaking appeared in the 1800s in North America. Until then,shoes had been made with the same kinds of hand tools used by the ancient Egyptians. And in 1858,a machine was invented that could stitch (縫合) the sole of a shoe to the upper part. Now it was possible to make shoes that were shaped to fit either the left or right foot. Toward the end of the 1800s came a new type of shoe that was specifically designed for sports — the sneaker — and it soon become an all-time favorite.

25. What did shoes often show in ancient times?

   A. The rich resources.

   B. all the shoe patterns made by the Greeks were the same

   C. the only function of footwear was to protect peoples feet

   D. people wore the same-shaped shoes on their two feet

                               B 

            Many doctors know the story of Mr Wright .In 1957 he was diagnosed(診斷) with cancer,and given only days to live. He heard that scientists had discovered a new medication, Krebiozen, which was effective against cancer and he begged the doctor to give it to him. His physician,Dr Philip West finally agreed. After Mr Wright had been given an injection on a Friday afternoon,the astonished doctor found his patient out of his “death bed”.

            Two months later,Mr Wright read medical reports that the medication was fake. His condition immediately got worse again. “Don’t believe what you read in the papers,” the doctor told Mr Wright. Then he injected him with what he said was “a new super-refined double strength” version of the drug. Actually,there was no drug,just a mix of salt and water. Later,Mr Wright was the picture of health for another two months until he read an official report saying that Krebiozen was worthless. He died two days later.

             This story has gone unnoticed by doctors for a long time and the idea that a patient's beliefs can make a disease go away has been thought of as too strange. But now scientists are discovering that the placebo effect(寬慰作用) is more powerful than anyone has ever thought. They are also beginning to discover how such unbelievable results are achieved. Through new techniques of brain imagery,it can be shown that a thought,a belief or a desire can cause chemical processes in the brain which can have powerful effects on the body. Scientists are learning that some body reactions are not caused by information coming into the brain from the outside world,but by what the brain expects to happen next.

              Placebos are “l(fā)ies that heal”,said Dr Anne Harrington,a historian of science at Harvard University. “The word ‘placebo’ is Latin for ‘I shall please’ and it is typically a treatment that a doctor gives to anxious patients to please them,” she said. “It looks like medication,but has no healing ingredients whatsoever."”

25. After being injected Krebiozen for the first time,Mr Wright.

   A. got cancer    B. almost died

   C. felt better   D. gave up What caused

26. Mr Wright's death according to the story?

   A. The fake drug.

   B. His own beliefs.

   C. His damaged brain.

   D. The doctor's wrong diagnosis.

27. What's the purpose of Paragraph 3 ?

   A. To explore the biology of human brains.

   B. To explain why people get cancer.

   C. To analyse how placebos work.

   D. To question Mr Wright's story.

28. What does Dr Anne Harrington think of the placebo effect?

   A. It is limited.

   B. It is effective.

   C. It can cheat patients.

   D. It goes against science.
