What is the single largest cause of sick leave in the UK? The answer is not the common cold or flu, but back pain. Back pain affects one in three British adults, costs the country over £ 5billion every year and is difficult to treat.

As an【52】to acupuncture, patients will be able to opt for either a course of spinal manipulation (脊椎推拿), or a【53】of special exercise sessions. In the UK, acupuncture is classed as a complementary therapy, which is the term given to a medical procedure which hasn’t been【54】to the strict trials by which scientists prove some treatments work.
While many experts have【55】the move to make acupuncture available on the NHS, some are still skeptical about its effectiveness.

Employers, on the other hand, will be hoping it gets them back to work.
A) active F) traditionally K) convinced
B) subjected G) officially L) treatment
C) method H) creative M) welcomed
D) solution I) series N) cure
E) effective J) confirmed O) alternative
选项
答案
K
解析
前一句说“一些人仍持怀疑态度”以及此处的while可推断此处表示怀疑的态度,故选K)conyinced“使信服”。J)confirmed为干扰项。
