第三次形成性练习之阅读题
It was not until my late thirties that I made this important discovery:
Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting.
giving-away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack
money. This is how I experimented with giving-away. If an idea for improving the window display of a nearby store occur to me, I stepped in(插入,介入) and suggested it to the store-keeper. If something interesting happens, the story of which I think the local Catholic priest could use, I call
him up and tell him about it, though I am not a Catholic myself.
One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in a form that is not expected. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the post office manager a thank-you note. More than a year later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the post office manager appeared in the entrance. He had happened to hear our
conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special envelope to your home?” I said it was. \certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don't know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get
nothing but complaints.\
像大多数人,我长大看待生命是一个过程获得。直到我在30月底,我作出这一重要发现:给予,距离使我们的生活如此更令人兴奋的。您不必担心如果缺乏资金。这是我尝试让-消失。如果一个主意,可以改善窗口显示一个闪烁附近商店给我,我的步骤,并提出上述建议的仓库保管员。一发现我付出,离开是,它几乎是不可能放弃任何在这个世界上,没有得到回报,尽管返回往往在一个意想不到的形式。一个星期天上午,当地邮局作了重要特别的递送信件到我家里,但给我在我的办公室。我写了一份说明邮政的赞赏。一年多后,我需要一个后Office中的一个新的业务,我开始。我被告知的窗口,没有框的左边,我的名字将不得不在很长的等候名单。当我正准备离开,邮政出现在门口。他听到我们的交谈。 “是不是你,我们该信中写道:一年前为客户提供一份特别的递送到您的家? ”我说是的。 “嘿,你肯定将会有一个盒子在这个邮政局如果我们要取得一个适合您。你不知道什么样的信,这意味着给我们。我们通常会只是投诉。 “

Americans this year will swallow 15,000 tons of aspirin(阿司匹林), one of the safest and most effective drugs invented by man. As the most popular medicine in the world today, it is an effective pain reliever. (镇痛药吧)Its bad effects are relatively mild, and it is cheap.
For millions of people suffering from arthritis(关节炎), it is the only thing that works. Aspirin, in short, is truly the 20th century wonder drug. It is also the second largest suicide drug and is the leading cause of poisoning among children. It has side effect that, although relatively mild, are largely unrecognized among users.
Although aspirin was first sold by a German company in 1889, it has been around much longer than that. Hippocrates, in ancient Greece, understood the medical value of the leaves and tree bark which today are known to contain salicylates, the chemical in aspirin. During the 19th century, there was a great deal of experimentation in Europe with this chemical, and it led to the introduction of aspirin. By 1915, aspirin tablets were available in the United States.
A small quantity of aspirin (two five-grain tablets) relieves pain and inflammation. It also reduces fever by interfering with some of the body’s reactions. Specifically, aspirin seems to slow down the formation of the acids involved in pain and the complex chemical reactions that cause fever. The chemistry of these acids is not fully understood, but the slowing effect of aspirin is well-known.
Aspirin is very irritating to the stomach lining, and many aspirin takers complain about upset stomach. There is a right way and a wrong way to take aspirin. The best way to chew the tablets before swallowing them with water, but few people can stand the bitter taste. Some people suggest crushing the tablets in milk or orange juice and
drinking that.

Cancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them.
Are we under-employed(低就业), or overburdened(负担过重) with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be?
