burying our head in a good book.Whether its a crime story ora biography of someone5s amazing life,its good to read a book to switch off from the distractions of everyday lifeand help us relax.Maybe thafs why some of them are actually described as a therapy to sickness.It may seem obvious that reading is good for us.It can be educational,and,as some say,it can broaden themind.A good novel can make us happy or sad,or make us cry as we sympathize with characters.The power ofbooks was recognized a few years ago by the British charity Reading Agency,who published a list of books thatdoctors could offer to patients,concerning topics from depression to chronic（慢性的）pain.It called this“bibliotherapy“and its become so successful that ifs about to be extended to children as well.Professor Philip Davis studies the effects of literature and is author of a book called Reading for Life.Hestudied people in reading groups and found that its reading literature written works thought to have artisticvalue,that has the best effect.When reading something for pleasure,the brain begins to work from different parts,from a different hemisphere and it gets excited,it gets pre-emotional and you can see the brain coming to liffe.”he said.Of course,its easy in our smartphone generation to desert a good book and play with our phones instead.Butopening up a paperback could be a simple way to help boost or maintain our mental health.It?s thought they canhelp you set targets and find fbcus.And they may allow you to see that awkward situation youve been anxiousabout for weeks from someone elses perspective.If youre not a keen reader it can be hard to know where to begin.If the Reading Agency book list doesntappeal,you could read book reviews,visit a library or bookshop or ask a friend.Once youve found the right text,youll be attracted!And if you still love your technology,you could always use an e-reader.8.What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?A.Books are a better way to cure sickness.B.Reading allows one to focus on daily life.C.”Bibliotherapy”has proved effective fbr adults.D.Reading Agency first realized the power of books.9.What is the purpose of the

Phillip Davi s,.A.not all literature has artistic value B.written works have educational valueC.literature is a main source of pleasure D.reading literature can activate the brain11.What is the advantage of paperbacks over smartphones?A.They are less addictive.B.They are more accessible.C.They benefit your mental health.D.They rid you of awkward situations.DPeople dont like new things.It is not any different in health care.It took plenty of time until the stethoscope(听诊器),the symbol of health care was accepted by the medical community back in the 19th century.Theinstrument was invented by a French physician,who published its description in 1819,but it took several decadesuntil doctors actually started using it.I dont expect any difference with artificial intelligence(AI).After many of my talks,physician colleagues askme whether AI might replace them in their jobs and whether it can eventually become better at identifying the exactcause of an illness.Both will happen but not the way they imagine it.Huge waves are coming to health care.Whilesome of physicians tasks will be taken over by AI,they will deal with patients with real care and more patience.Doctors will not have to struggle with being up-to-date in medical research,with administrative tasks,withconsultation or making notes.They do not have to have a headache about how to choose the best treatment.What even the most learned professors know cannot match cognitive（认知的）computers.As the amount ofinformation they accumulate grows,the assistance of computing solutions in medical decisions is approaching.AIwill help doctors on the personal level as well as hospitals and other medical institutions on the structural level.Onthe institutional level,the most obvious use of AI will be data management.It could also analyze entire health caresystems quickly and easily.AI will gradually appear in more and more hospitals and get through the initial stage very quickly.Although itis coming,it will need the medical communitys understanding,initiative（主动，性）and drive for a better health carein order to work its best.If we introduced AI everywhere from Bolivia to Harvard,health care would not change abit.There are many reasons for it but everyone in health care should play their part to improve those elements.12.Why does the author refer to the stethoscope?A.To show it has many limitations.B.To imply it will give way to AI.C.To explain it is widely used in treating disease.D.To illustrate people refuse to accept new things.13.How will AI influence physicians?A.They neednt do medical research.B.Theyll spare more time fbr patients.C.TheyUl have difficulty with treatments.D.Theyre likely to lose their jobs to AL14.What does the author intend to convey in Paragraph 3?A.AI will face uncertainties in the future.B.Cognitive computers do better than man.C.Existing health care has its disadvantages.D.AI will open a new dimension for health care.15.What will the following paragraph（s）probably talk about?A.When health care will be improved.B.How people can promote the change.C.What benefits AI will bring about.D.How AI will transform health care.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。S ome lucky people are born with artistic talent,while others have to study to become expert in art.16 S ome people just let
