Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive (重新體驗(yàn)) these experiences in nightmares.
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase (抹去), the effect of painful memories.
In
November, experts tested a drug on people in the
The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war.
They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. "Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry (精神病學(xué)) at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."
But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特質(zhì)). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we'd want to wipe those memories out," said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist (倫理學(xué)家).
Some people fear that although the
drug would first be used in only very serious cases, it would become more and
more common. "People always have the ability to misuse science," said
Joseph LeDoux, a

D. The research has caused a heated argument.
54. The underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refers to “_____”.
A. the new drug B. the research into the drug
C. the memory D. the chemical in the drug
55. Which of the following is not the opinion of the supporters?
A. The pill can erase all the memories in the past.
B. Some memories can ruin people’s life. The pill can relieve emotional suffering.
C. The pill can also help many other types of people who suffer from terrible memories.
D. The pill can prevent or treat troubling memories in soldiers after war.
56. Which of the following is not the opinion of the opponents (反對(duì)者)?
A. Our memories give us our identity.
B. The memories help humanity avoid mistakes of the past.
C. The drug should be used in only very serious cases.
D. People may not be sure whether they want to wipe the memories out.

At one time it was the dream of many little girls to become a nurse. Today, however, America is facing its worst nurse shortage since World War I. Recently about 2,000,000 nurses are needed and 60 percent of all hospitals in the US have shortages large enough to threaten the quality of care provided. The demand for nurses spreads widely throughout the nursing field.
What has become of these women in white? The answer lies in not one but several causes. One possibility is the fact that woman have greater career options. In the past, women who chose to work outside the home had two basic choices: nursing or teaching. Today, more women than ever are in the work force, but their options have greatly increased. There are women doctors, lawyers, firefighters and police officers. In fact, women today are found in nearly every field of work. Nursing has been left behind, as women move on to jobs with higher pay and greater status. A woman or man in the nursing field is often looked down upon as“merely a nurse”. Teachers may be also at fault. Many high school students are actually being steered away from nursing, told by teachers that they are“too bright to be a nurse”.
Americans are living longer than ever and requiring more medical attention. In fact, the number of elderly patients has almost doubled in the past twenty years. Obviously a larger population requires more nurses. AIDS and other diseases have caused more and more people to need nursing care. Usually fatal diseases mean long hospital stay, that is to say, more nurses are needed to care for these patients. It is estimated(評(píng)估) that the demand for nurses will be doubled the supply in the coming ten years.
57.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A.How nurses have been looked down upon.
B.Why women have chosen many different jobs.
C.What has caused nurse shortage.
D.How teachers have influenced their students.
58.The passage tells us that high school teachers are at fault for .
A.not
mentioning the worst nurse shortage in the
B.introducing jobs with higher pay and greater status to their students
C.not asking the government to raise the nurses’ payment
D.persuading the students not to be nurses
59.The author wrote this passage in order to .
A.describe
the unequal treatment of women in the
B.warn people to pay more attention to the nursing problem
C.tell us women’s free choice of jobs today
D.call on women to choose different kinds of jobs
60.It can be seen from the passage that .
A.high school students think themselves too bright to be nurses
B.women in
the
C.of all the hospitals in the world 60 percent more nurses are badly needed
