Doctor Rosen reported that the study findings could show how the brain might help people suffering from a number of health problems. These include pain, unexplained worry and sadness and some disorders of the stomach and intestines. The findings also may aid people who are fighting dependence on substances like illegal drugs.
Doctor Rosen led a team that studied about twenty healthy people. The team examined the people with functional magnetic resonance imaging devices. MRI's can show changes in the flow of blood and the amount of oxygen in the blood. They studied the people before, during and after acupuncture. The researchers placed acupuncture needles in the skin on the people's hands. They chose places linked to pain relief in traditional Chinese acupuncture.
Meat of the people reported that their hands felt heavy after the needles were placed. Blood flow to some areas of the brain decreased quickly in these people. Doctor Rosen said that was a sign that the acupuncture was working correctly.
But a few of the people said their hands hurt. Their needles were probably not placed correctly. Their MRI's showed an increase in blood in the same areas of the brain where the other people showed a decrease.
According to the findings by the American researchers, what is of help in relieving patients' pain and worry？
A．Brain.
B．Skin.
C．Medicine.
D．A sharp needle.
A．She asks him to have injections.
B．She asks him to have an operation.
C．She asks him to have a good rest.
D．She asks him to have some herb medicine and a treatment with rays.

Relieving the Pain
"Exercise may be thebest treatment of chronic pain, "say doctors at a new clinic for dealingwith pain. "People with chronic pain need to stop lying around,go outmore, and start exercising. "The in- stinctive reaction to acute pain isto stop moving and to try to protect the source of pain. But it seems that thisis often not productive, especially in the case of back pain. Back pain, afterheadaches and tiredness,has become the third most common reason for people tovisit their doctors. Painful backsnow account for millions of days off work.
Lumbar(腰部的)pains are partly theprice humans pay for taking their forelimbs off the ground, but they aremade worse by a sedentary(久坐不动的 ) lifestyle. Lack of exercise slowly decreases theflexibility and strength of muscles, sothat it is more difficult to take pressure off the site of pain. Exer- cise isessential. It releases endorphins (内啡肽) , the body's "feel-good"chemicals, which are naturalpainkillers. In fact,these are so important that researchers are now looking for drugs that canmaintain a comfortable level ofendorphins in the body.
Most people who go to afamily doctor complaining of pain are prescribed pain-killing drugs rather thanexercise. Since finding the cause of backache is not so easy,doctors frequentlydo not know the precise cause of the discomfort,and as the pain continues,sufferers end up taking stronger doses or a series of different drugs."It's crazy, "says Dr. Brasseur,a therapist at the InternationalAssociation for the Study of Pain. "Some of them are taking differentdrugs prescribed by different doctors I've just seen a patient who was takingtwo drugs which turned out to be the same thing under different names. "
A generation of new painclinics now operates on the basis that drugs are best avoided. Once pa- tientshave undergone the initial physical and psychological check up, theirmedication is cut down as much as possible. Taking patients off drugs alsoprepares them for physical activity.
In some pain-reliefclinics,patients begin the day with muscle contraction and relaxationexercises, followed by an hour on exercise bikes. Later in the day, they practice tai chi(太极 ) , self-defense, and deep thought. This compares with anaverage of two-and-a-half hours' physiotherapy(理疗)a week in a traditional hospital program. "The idea is tostrengthen and to increase long-lasting energy,flexibility, andconfidence,"explains Bill Wiles,a consultant pain doctor in Liverpool. "Patients undergoing this therapy getback to work and resume healthy active lifestyles much sooner than thosesubjected to more conservative treatment. "
To treat pain, patients should stop moving around
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
And many sufferers don't know the cause or the solution to their problem.
The majority of our patients at the clinic tend to be women. They are especially vulnerable because of pregnancy but also because of osteoporosis, which I personally believe to be the major cause of problems for women. I have many women patients who say they have completely given up exercise because the pain makes them so miserable. But of course that starts up a vicious circle. Bed rest, giving up exercise and pain killers are traditional responses to back pain but, although there are many excellent drugs on the market, at our clinic we are beginning to realise the unique benefits of relaxation therapy. Other specialists in the field make a strong case for certain types of exercise, but in our experience they are easily mishandled and can lead to more harm than good.
Now, let's look at some of the reasons why back pain is developing into such a unique menace. In general, the body is pretty good at self-repair. A strain or a blow to a limb, though painful at the time, generally resolves itself. But the body's response to back injury can be very counter-productive. When pain strikes, we attempt to keep the back as immobile as possible, which makes the muscles tense up. Research shows that they often go into spasm, which cause further twisting of the spine. A vicious circle is underway.
The second mistake we often make when stricken with extreme back pain is to go to bed and stay there. Although at the clinic we recognise that a short rest in bed can be helpful… up to two days… any longer makes our back muscles become weaker and unable to hold up our spine. The pain therefore becomes worse.
Another problem is being overweight. Anyone a stone or more overweight who already has back pain is not doing himself any favours: though it won't actually set it off in the first place, the weight will increase the strain and make things worse. The British diet could be partially to blame for the increase in back pain: over the last ten years the average weight of men has risen by 11 lbs. and of women by 9 lbs..

Hypnosis(催眠)
1 Increasing numbers of American doctors are using a technique known as hypnosis. They say hypnosis often can help persons suffering pain and stress. It also can help speed the healing of bums, and treats some forms of asthma and some skin diseases. Hypnosis is not new. It has been used for many years both in scientific research and to please crowds at public gatherings,
2 Hypnosis is commonly described as a condition similar to sleep. But, experts say it is more a form. of deep thought. The thought becomes so intense that it is longer just a thought. To the per son, it becomes reality.
3 Hypnotized patients are reported to have increased self-control and a reduced sense of pain. Some doctors use hypnosis to limit pain during a medical operation. Hypnosis is used mainly when the patient may have problems with usual anesthetic or pain-killing drugs.
4 Experts say there is little chance that a patient will awaken during such an operation. But, if this happens, the operation is temporarily halted, and the patient hypnotized again. Doctors may advise hypnosis for women who are giving birth. Dentists may use it in place of traditional pain-killing drugs, such as novocaine (麻醉药).
5 Hypnosis also has been used to treat burn victims. Researchers have found that bum victims who are hypnotized improve faster that those who are not. But, they are not sure why this happens.
6 Hypnosis can reduce or end a patient's pain. But experts say this does not mean the patient is cured. The problem that caused the pain still must be treated.
7 Experts also say persons cannot be forced to do something they would normally oppose. That is why hypnosis often is not effective in treating cigarette smokers and persons who eat or drink too much. The success of the technique depends on how much someone wants it to succeed.

End Your Back Pain
Like an expensive but temperamental sports car, the human spin is beautifully designed and maddeningly unreliable. If you are a living, breathing human being, you have probably suffered the agony of back pain. And as long as people continue to lead overweight, sedentary and stressful lives, the number of sufferers is unlikely to go anywhere other than up.
As it does, armies of new back-pain sufferers, many desperate and even disabled, will seek relief. When they do, they'll quickly discover just how complicated their problem really is, with its mystifying mix of physical symptoms and psychological underpinnings. The reality is that the agony will often go away on its own — impossible as that may seem when you are writhing (痛苦扭曲) on the kitchen floor. The Great Pain Mystery
Back pain can originate anywhere in the elaborate spinal architecture. Degenerated discs (椎间盘), which many lead to herniation (突出) and compressed nerves, are a common problem. Then there those wrenching pain provoked by muscle injuries, which can drop grown men to the floor. What's most mysterious about back problems is the frequent disconnect between anatomical defects and pain. Unlike blood pressure and cholesterol (胆固醇), which could be measured with arm cuffs and blood tests, lower-back pain has no objective way — the volume of tears？ the intensity of a grimace？ — to be gauged.
Many times, the precise cause of pain remains unknown. Imaging tests found that two people with herniated discs can lead radically different lives: One spends his days popping painkillers, the other waltzes through life. In a well-known study, researchers checked 98 healthy people: Two-thirds had abnormal discs even though none complained of pain. The real issue is why some people have a mild backache and some have really crippling pain. In another research, experts compared a group of patients who reported back pain with a control group who did not. Close to two-thirds if the pain patients had cracks in their discs, so-called high-intensity zones, or HIZs. But so did 24 percent of the non-complainers.
The answer has as much to do with the mind as with the body. In the HIZ study, the best predictor of pain was not how bad the defect looked, but the patient's psychological distress. Depression and anxiety have long been linked to pain; a recent Canadian study found that people who suffer from severe depression are four times more likely to develop intense or disabling neck or low-back pain. At New York's Hospital for Special Surgery, psychiatrist Gregory Lutz says he often sees men who have two things in common: crippling sciatica (坐骨神经痛) and an upcoming wedding date. The problem in their back, possibly a degenerated or herniated disc, likely already existed, says Dr. Lutz, but was intensified by the pre-marriage jitters.
Spine Surgery Breakthrough
Pain is pain, and many want a quick fix and that means surgery. Spinal-fusion surgery, one of the most invasive and costly forms of therapy (about ＄42,000) has more than doubled in the US since 1993, to about 350,000 in 2003. Discectomy, which is done less invasively, has also spiked to 342,000 surgeries per year. But these procedures don't work for everyone.
The increase in all spinal surgery has been promoted in part by technical advances promising better outcomes. Perhaps the most intriguing new development is the artificial cobalt-chrome disc. In October 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first such disc, the Charite, for patients with degenerative disc disease. The three-piece device has a sliding medical-grade plastic core sandwiched between two metal plates, which allows the spine to move. It is believed that, such discs, like knee replacements, will give patients more mobility than traditional fusion surgery. And they will get out of bed a lot sooner too. The key is to be v
A．plain ageing
B．spine defects
C．surgical failures
D．mental stress
Counsellor at Liverpool's famous pain clinic: The Wilton Clinic. Paula...
PAULA CLAYBURG: Do you know what Prince Charles, Seve Ballesteros and Elizabeth
Taylor have in common？ They all suffer from chronic back pain. In fact,
bad backs are one of the most common health problems today,
affecting people in all walks of life. The most recent available figures
show that about a quarter of a million people are incapacitated with 【Q31】
back pain every day.
And many sufferers don't know the cause or the solution to their
problem.
The majority of our patients at the clinic tend to be women. They are
especially vulnerable because of pregnancy but also because of
osteoporosis, which I personally believe to be the major cause of
problems for women. I have many women patients who say they have 【Q32】
completely given up exercise because the pain makes them so miserable.
But of course that starts up a vicious circle. Bed rest, giving up exercise
and pain killers are traditional responses to back pain but, although
there are many excellent drugs on the market, at our clinic we are
beginning to realise the unique benefits of relaxation therapy. Other 【Q33】
specialists in the field make a strong case for certain types of exercise,
but in our experience they are easily mishandled and can lead to more
harm than good.
Now, let's look at some of the reasons why back pain is developing
into such a unique menace. In general, the body is pretty good at self-
repair. A strain or a blow to a limb, though painful at the time,
generally resolves itself. But the body's response to back injury can be
very counter-productive. When pain strikes, we attempt to keep the 【Q34】
back as immobile as possible, which makes the muscles tense up.

twisting of the spine. A vicious circle is underway.
The second mistake we often make when stricken with extreme back

Another problem is being overweight. Anyone a stone or more over- 【Q36】
weight who already has back pain is not doing himself any favours:
though it won't actually set it off in the first place, the weight will
increase the strain and make things worse. The British diet could be
partially to blame for the increase in back pain: over the last ten years the
average weight of men has risen by 11 lbs and of women by 9 lbs. So much
for the causes and aggravations of pain. But what can WE do to help？
There are many ways in which simple day-to-day care can make all
the difference. The first point to watch of course is weight. If you are
overweight, a diet will make all the difference.
Also, studies have shown that just one hour sitting in a slouched
position can strain ligaments in the back which can take months to heal.
At the clinic we have come to the conclusion that the major cause of the
problem is not with the design of chairs, as some have suggested, but
in the way WE sit in them. It can be useful to get special orthopaedic 【Q37】
chairs, but remember the most important improvement should be in
OUR posture.
