One night, the duty doctor gave him an injection of saline salt water instead, and it worked. The doctor explained what she had done, and thought this would convince him that the problem was
14、psychological. But Michael then said, “Can I get that new medicine next time, its really effective!”译文译文MindoverbodytheplaceboeffectDigging2 The phenomenon which Michael experienced is known as the placebo effect, where something fake in this case the saline becomes something real seemingly because
15、someone believes in it. On this occasion, the placebo effect was working in two ways. First, the doctor was using it to highlight the power of the mind over the body to Michael. Secondly, despite the doctors explanation, and even though its effect was imaginary, Michael still believed in the new med
16、icine so much that the physical pain faded away.译文译文Digging3 But the placebo effect is merely part of a much more extensive phenomenon called the Mind-Body effect. The term refers to the effect of beliefs and fears on physical health, and has been described as a special form of hope. For centuries p
17、hysicians and most members of the general public have been aware of the importance of good emotional health. We know either consciously or unconsciously how our thoughts, feelings and behaviour can make us feel better, as well as how fatigue and stress can be tackled by developing certain strategies
18、, such as how to breathe and to relax.译文译文Digging4 Yet the placebo effect remains one of the most mysterious aspects of the Mind-Body phenomenon. In fact, it covers a complex scale of benefits. It goes like this: The placebo effect of a white sugar pill, which of course has no qualities for treating
19、 illness or injury, is inferior to that of a green one. Capsules are more effective than tablets. One pill a day is not as good as three. Expensive pills intensify the effect more than the cheaper ones. An injection presents a stronger image than pills, tablets or capsules, and works better than pla
20、cebo pills. And placebo surgery, where the surgeon actually makes a cut in the patient but goes no further, is the best placebo treatment of all.译文译文Digging5 Patients responses to the placebo effect take us beyond the world of emotional and physical well-being into areas such as branding or cultural
21、 association. There is research that shows when a patient is given aspirin in either a brand-name bottle or a bottle with no label, it worked better if it was a brand they recognized, even though the active ingredient is exactly the same. 译文译文Digging译文译文DiggingPills to treat anxiety are usually colo
22、ured green because of its association with calm and peace; painkillers are often packaged in red and orange boxes. The placebo effect lies beyond the chemical effect: Its the ceremony and cultural meaning of the treatment which is more important.译文译文Digging6 Furthermore, since the placebo is in effe
23、ct something fake, it raises an ethical dilemma: Should a doctor deceive their patients? Surely this would undermine our belief in medicine, and challenge the doctors code of conduct. At least Michaels doctor revealed her deceit after the treatment. But should she have practised it in the first plac
24、e?译文译文Digging7 This recent insight into the Mind-Body effect has taught both doctors and patients that their relationship has undergone a change. Its no longer one which is restricted simply by the reactions of the body to chemicals. It has become a human relationship where the doctor interacts with
25、 us, the patients. The doctor is someone who is caring for us, and offering to help. Its a relationship which may explain to us why we feel sick and what we can do to get better. 译文译文DiggingWe get hope, support and human warmth. The meaning of the treatment becomes more important than its chemical e
26、ffects, and this may lead to a genuine reaction, where our pulse rate drops, we relax, and our stress levels decrease.8 Once doctors begin to make use of the placebo effect and patients respond to it, society becomes more aware of the greater extent of the Mind-Body effect. Its a society where ordin
27、ary people become more aware of their emotional health and its consequences on their physical health. All this becomes part of a collective common sense, and society as a whole becomes more healthy.译文译文DiggingDifficult sentences As the examples which follow show, patients feel even better if the sha

66、使他相信他的问题是心理上的。但迈克尔却说：他的问题是心理上的。但迈克尔却说：“我下次可我下次可以用这种新药吗？它真的很有效！以用这种新药吗？它真的很有效！”原文原文Translation 迈克尔的这种现象被称为安慰剂效应，即某迈克尔的这种现象被称为安慰剂效应，即某种虚假的东西种虚假的东西在这个病例中是生理盐水在这个病例中是生理盐水因为某个人相信它，就似乎成真的了。在这个案因为某个人相信它，就似乎成真的了。在这个案例中，安慰剂效应从两个方面起了作用。第一，例中，安慰剂效应从两个方面起了作用。第一，医生用它来证明精神力量对迈克尔身体的作用；医生用它来证明精神力量对迈克尔身体的作用；第二，尽管医生作
