3、ritings on anatomy and physiology were accepted by medical men for more than a thousand years. Vesalius, a Belgian who went to Paris to study medicine, made the first major successful challenge of the teachings and the theories of Galen. Vesalius shocked his professors by proposing that knowledge of

12、yAHe openly disagreed with Galen.BHe cared on his research secretly.CHe broke a French law.DHe was impolite to his professors. 3.Sleepwalking is a scientific reality. Its one of those strange phenomena that sometimes border in the fantastic. What is certain about sleepwalking is that it is a symptom

13、 of emotional disturbance, and that the only way to care it is to remove their worries and anxieties that cause it. Doctors say that sleepwalking is much more common than is generally supposed. Many sleepwalkers do not seek help and so are never put on record, which means that an accurate count can

14、never be made. The questions：Is the sleepwalker actually awake or asleep Scientists have decided that he is about half-and-half. Doctors think the sleepwalker is awake in the muscular area, partially asleep in the sensory area. In other words, a person can walk in his sleep, move around, and do othe

15、r things, but he does not think about what he is doing. What are the chances of a sleepwalker committing a murder or doing something else extraordinary in his sleep In general, authorities in sleepwalking think that people will not do anything in their sleep that is against their own moral standard.

16、 As for the publicized cases, Dr. Teplitz points out, sleepwalking itself is dramatic-sleepwalkers can always find an audience. I think that some of their tall tales get exaggerated in the telling. In her own records of case histories, there is not one sleepwalker who ever got beyond his own front d

17、oor. To protect themselves, some sleepwalkers have been known to tie themselves in bed, lock their doors, hide the keys, bolt the window, and take all sorts of measures to wake themselves if they should get out of bed. Curiously enough, they have an unusual way of avoiding their own traps when they

18、sleepwalk, so none of their tricks seem to work very well. Some sleepwalkers talk in their sleep loudly enough to wake someone else in the family who can then shake them back to their senses. Children who walk in their sleep usually outgrow the habit. In many adults, too, the condition is more or le

19、ss temporary. If it happens often, the sleepwalker should seek help. Although sleepwalking itself is nothing to become alarmed about, the problems that cause the sleepwalking may be very serious.Which of the following is trueASleepwalking is such a serious social problem that we should make greater

20、efforts to find what cause it.BIn telling sleepwalking stories, people may invent something extraordinary to be added to them for the purpose of finding an audience.CSleepwalking is a sign that the person has a psychological problem. He worries about and fears for something in life.DThe American exp

21、ert on sleep has never seen a sleepwalker walking beyond his own front door. This proves that sleepwalking has no scientific basis of any kind. 4.Galen, Andress Veaslius, and William Harvey were important figures in the history of man s study of his own body. Galen, a Greek who practiced medicine in

22、 Rome in the second century A.D. , contributed immeasurably to the understanding of anatomy (解剖学).

24、hocked his professors by proposing that knowledge of human anatomy should be learned from human bodies.
