Daily Medications When people feel sick they usually go to see the doctor. Doctors write a pr
56、escription for different medicines. Besides the doctor prescribed medicines there is a large category of medicines for daily use which are called over-the-counter medicines. We have to read the medicine label information before using such medicines including painkillers, cold tablets, eye drops or d
57、ifferent cold medicines. The information tells the dosage, warnings, whether to or not to take with food, and possible side effects of the medicines for instance, taking a painkiller for a headache or for pains in your body. The medicine label information will tell you how much medicine and when to
58、take it, things you should not do, and side-effects the medicine may cause. Although the daily use of medicine is very convenient, seeing a doctor is always a much better choice. If you have to self-prescribe, be sure to read the medicine label information carefully. Reference SampleLesson 2Lead-inL

82、he government should do to deal with the spread of AIDS?Text CText Understanding the structure of the textInferential QuestionsVocabulary Exercise33Text CTesting for AIDSFrom The New York TimesAt the time this essay was published, William Bennett was secretary of education and Gary Bauer a White Hou
83、se aide. The names and positions have changed, but the argument continues. The editorial was published in 1987. Para 1 Why do not we compel everyone to be tested for AIDS as the basis for halting further spread of the virus? That is a natural first thought to anyone who ponders the deadly epidemic.
84、But it is only a first thought. That some senior administration officials argue for mandatory AIDS testing shows how late in the day they have arrived at step one. William Bennett, the secretary of education, wants AIDS tests to be given to everyone admitted to the hospital or applying for a marriag
85、e license, Gary Bauer, a senior White House aide, says opponents of such tests are promoting ”a bizarre type of enforced ignorance.” The Public Health Service now says that all immigrants will be screened for AIDS virus. There are at least five reasons for believing that advocates of general forced
86、testing are opinionated, hasty or poorly informed.Text C Para 2 Lesson One: Do not drive victims underground. Homosexuals and intravenous drug abusers, the principal victims, are not mainstream Americans. Living at the edge of social tolerance in many states, they face plenty of discrimination alrea
87、dy. Their cooperation in changing their own behavior is crucial in slowing the diseases spread to other groups. Mandatory testing is the surest way to discourage them from contact with health authorities. Para 3 Lesson Two: A consensus is not a conspiracy. No one should lightly deny public health of
88、ficials the tools they need to combat AIDS, including use of the AIDS antibody tests. What public officials want, for the reason cited above, is more voluntary testing, not mandatory testing. Mr. Bennett seems to believe that the federal public health agency has fallen under the influence of homosex
89、uals who oppose mandatory testing for self-interested reasons. But the reason for agreement is not conspiracy. Both groups believe voluntary testing is the better way of halting AIDS.Text C Para 4 Lesson Three: Why in hospitals? Hospital patients are predominantly the elderly and the very young, two
90、 categories least likely to have AIDS. Why does Mr. Bennett propose to look there for the virus instead of among high-risk groups? Because hospitals are where testing is easiest. So too argued the drunk driver who lost his keys in the dark and explained he was searching for them under the lamppost b
91、ecause the light was better. Para 5 Lesson Four: False alarms have grim consequences. The two present tests for AIDS virus are highly specific but even in conjunction are not totally accurate. The danger of “false positives”, diagnosing individuals as exposed to AIDS when they are not, is probably m
92、inute with high-risk populations. But the danger grows rapidly when screening large populations at low risk. According to a paper to be published shortly by Michael J. Barry and colleagues at the Harvard School of Public Health, the two standard AIDS tests would identify 28 true positives, 2 false n
93、egatives and 11 false positives when applied to a low-risk population. What those figures say is that, for every 28 cases correctly diagnosed, the tests risk falsely informing 11 individuals that they earn the virus of a deadly disease and should never have children. Without guarantees of confidenti
94、ality, the insurers, employers, landlords and classmates of these 11 individuals may also learn, and act on the false information. What a burden for mandatory testers to bear.Text C Para 6 Lesson Five: AIDS makes a poor political football. Mr. Bauer believes that public health officials have few dou
95、bts in urging explicit sex education for young children, offensive as that may be to conservatives. But when it comes to testing, “the lefts political agenda takes over,” He says, “Either this is potentially the Black Death or it isnt.” In fact, no one knows how widely AIDS will spread, but its prud
96、ent to take precautions. Teaching teenagers safe sex is an effective precaution, and mandatory testing is not. 11 AIDS is a medical issue. Those who politicize it, or see political motives where none exist, are seriously delaying national policy on AIDS and measures to save lives. Para 7 The only kn
97、own way to curb AIDS is to persuade people to change behavior. The administration still has not mounted a massive public education program of the sort already under way in several European countries. The secretary of education should be leading the charge for education about AIDS and voluntary testi
98、ng. Mandatory testing should be his last thought, not his first.
