Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world.

Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to　 acupundure，cupping and massage (针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on US.swimmer Michael　 Phelps' back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016.

As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment.It is therefore disheartening to know that-while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture，not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs.

Herbs, are made into pills,powder　 and soup, and the kind of herbs uscd1 their quality and　 quantity, and the processing of the　 ingredients jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately,standardization has improved in recent decades, with an　 increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs.

Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription　 drugs is the lack of creativity, While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyour's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria(疟疾）treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time.

A.he was injured in his swimming.

B.cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment.

C.westerners know a little about TCM.

2.Why don't some member countries of WIIO recognize Chinese herbal medicine?

A.Because Chinese herbs can　 get rid of diseases

B.Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture

C.Because western medicine 15 more effective

D.Because medicine made out or Chinese herbs develops slowly

3.Compared with Western medicine，what is the main weak point of TCM ?

A.The methods of processing herbs.

B.The effectiveness of prescription.

Chinese Ministry of Education (教育部) is changing its traditional policy of encouraging schools to give special admission (入学) opportunities to those students with special talents in sports, music and art, even though their grades didn’t reach the standard.

The policy was flawed because some parents expose their not-so-talented child to plenty of expensive and demanding training courses in order to improve their child’s slim chances of approaching a good school. And then there was the problem of corruption (贪污腐败), which means some local officials selling the talent certificates (证书) and medals to those ambitious parents. According to a press conference held by the Ministry of Education in March, 2018, the “special talent” policy is expected to be completely called off by 2020.

Although the policy is ending, it should not imply that students should give up developing their talents and interests. These extracurricular (课外的) activities may not have a direct effect on academic performance, but they are ways for students to begin building a “talent stack” that will help them in their future careers.

The idea of a “talent stack” comes from the American cartoonist Scott Adams. According to Adams, people shouldn’t focus on the goal of becoming the best at something because very few people are actually the best. There are not many Michael Jordans or Albert Einsteins. Instead, people should cultivate a variety of skills that work well together.

Jack Ma (马云) is a typical example of what Adams is talking about. Ma liked English and became an English teacher. He learned some business skills by operating an English language training school. He also had an interest in computers. On a visit to the United States, he discovered the internet and the way it was being used to buy and sell things. Although Ma wasn’t the best English speaker or a computer expert, he was able to “stack” them —to put them together—to learn about internet trading and then start Alibaba, the world’s largest online trading website.

Although you may not realize it, you have already begun building your talent stack by learning English. If you have other interests like art and sports, you should continue to develop them. They will add to your talent stack and give you an advantage in the job market. Your unique set of skills, even if you may not be the best at any of them, may also lead you into new careers you may not have previously considered. Having a talent may no longer give students a shortcut in getting into a good school, but developing that talent will have long-term benefits as part of your “talent stack.”

1.What does the word “flawed” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.perfect. B.complicated. C.imperfect. D.pointless.

2.Which of the following statements about the “talent stack” is NOT true?

A.It was carried out by an American cartoonist.

B.Michael Jordan and Albert Einstein has one of the best talent stacks in the world.

C.Studying a foreign language is an effective way to build one’s “talent stack”.

D.The power of talent stacks may be beyond your imagination.

3.Why does the author take Jack Ma’s personal experience as an example?

A.To prove that Jack Ma is good at running a business.

B.To show that one’s “talent stack” has nothing to do with his academic performance.

C.To tell the readers that mastering English is the most efficient means to build one’s “talent stack”.

D.To point out that “talent stack” can helps a person take advantage of benefits from different professional fields.

4.What can we infer(推断) from the article?

A.Students with special talents will have fewer opportunities to study in good schools in two years.

B.Having talents and interests doesn’t help a student’s academic performance at all.

C.Developing a talent in sports, music or art is certain to cost a lot of money.

D.The author holds a negative attitude towards the newly-launched policy.

A traditional Chinese cough syrup (糖浆), called Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa (念慈庵川贝枇杷膏), is flying off the shelves in New York stores this flu season, following a US news report.

According to a report in The Wall Street Journal last week, Mr. Alex Schweder, a professor of design at Pratt Institute suffering a cough for about 10 days, felt better 15 minutes after he drank a bottle of Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa. It had been recommended by his girlfriend, who first learnt about the cough syrup 30 years ago when she was living in Hong Kong.

Mr. Schweder was shocked by the magical effects of the cough syrup, and recommended it to many people. This, together with other factors, soon made the Chinese medicine popular in New York City.

A 300ml bottle is now sold at US$13.29 on Walmart’s website. This is more than double the former price in some pharmacies (药店) in Manhattan’s Chinatown, selling at about US$6 per bottle. “The number of Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa we sold over the past few days was much more than usual,” said Winnie, a sales staff member of Buy-rite pharmacy in Chinatown. “More and more Westerners are accepting this medicine because it is effective,” she said.

According to the Kingworld Medicines Group’s official website, Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa is made of “valuable Chinese herbs and honey, and has surprising effects in treating coughs.” However, experts warn that taking the cough syrup can carry health risks, including when it is used with other medicines, used too much or taken instead of prescription medication (处方药).

Dr. Keith Brenner, a specialist in pulmonary medicine at Columbia University Medical Centre New York Presbyterian Hospital, said, “I think people who use these things may not even tell the doctor about them, and it’s a problem.”

1.What does the underlined phrase “flying off the shelves” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A.Being stolen. B.Being removed.

C.Being in trouble. D.Being on hot sale.

2.How did Mr. Alex Schweder get to know Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa?

A.He used to have it in Hong Kong.

B.He searched for it on the Internet.

C.His girlfriend introduced it to him.

D.He heard of it from a news report.

3.What can be learned about Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa?

A.It is priced at US$6 per bottle.

B.It is getting cheaper but very effective.

C.It is made of some foreign herbs and honey.

D.It is sold in pharmacies as well as online.

4.Dr. Keith Brenner’s words in the last paragraph show his ________.

A.hope B.concern

C.anger D.surprise
