People who are used to taking drugs or medicine when they are ill, or who expect to have an operation in a hospital, find the idea of acupuncture very strange.
【R1】______It began in ancient China, and although it seems to be "unscientific" to Western minds, its principles are precise, and based on a belief that man is spiritual creature, as well as a physical one.
According to acupuncture, the human body contains twelve invisible path ways, or lines, which pass through it.【R2】______These meridians carry a "life force", which must be able to flow easily through the body.【R3】______
The skilled acupuncturist learns where the meridians are, and how each one influences different parts of the body and the mind.【R4】______Normally, the patient feels no pain. The needle starts a current — to imagine this, think of an electric current — when travels through the meridian to the physical nervous system. The part of the body, which is ill, then responds to the impulse carried on the current. The acupuncturist inserts the needle or needles in different places, according to the effect he wants to produce.【R5】______To an acupuncturist, the parts of the body work together in a way that Western medicine cannot understand.
【R6】______It is difficult for Westerners to understand Yin and Yang, but we can think of the complementary opposites — such as male and female, night and day, positive and negative electrical charges, birth and death.【R7】______Disease and illness of the body occur when the balance of Yin and Yang in it is upset. Acupuncture can help to restore this balance.
What can this form of medicine cure? Its followers say it can treat many illnesses — including stomach disorders, spinal diseases and headaches. It can be used as an anesthetic, and in one hospital in Britain, women giving birth are offered acupuncture instead of pain-killing drugs. 【R8】______
A. If it can’t, the body becomes ill.
B. This can mean that a needle is inserted into the back of the knee to treat headaches, for example.
C. However the most important aspect of acupuncture for Westerners is that it can help where allopathy has failed.
D. In fact, acupuncture is a much older form of medicine than allopathy, which is what most doctors practice in the West.
E. To the Chinese, everything in the world is either Yin or Yang, and the balance of the two forces is essential for peace and harmony.
F. Behind the healing power of acupuncture are the ancient Chinese ideas of Yin and Yang — two forces which both oppose and complement each other.
G To treat a patient, he puts a needle(made of copper, gold or silver)into the skin at an exact place on a meridian.
H. These path ways are called "meridians", and they are quite different from the physical nervous system well-known to Western doctors.
【R2】
选项
答案
H
解析
第2段介绍了人体里的12条path ways(经络),空格的后句出现了一个新名词:meridians。那么空格处也应该具体解释这些经络与meridians的关联。选项H:“这些经络被称为子午线,与西方医生所熟知的神经系统不同。”是一个很好的衔接句。
