Nurses have saved almost 800 lives in just one year by using iPads, iPods and mobile phones to record patients' vital (至关重要的) signs instead of paper charts.
Death rates at two major hospitals dropped by more than 15% after the nursing stall started using hand-held devices instead of paper notes to monitor (监督) the condition of patients, according to the research published recently.
Nurses recorded patients' blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels and other indicators on tablets and mobiles. Specialist software, called VitalPAC, automatically told them if the patient was deteriorating. If this is happened the nurse was warned to increase the frequency of their monitoring of the patient and, in some cases, to warn a doctor or a response team.
The introduction of the new system led to a fall of almost 400 patient deaths in just 12 months at Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth, and a drop of more than 370 in the same period at University Hospital, Coventry, according to the study in BMJ Quality & Safety. An editorial in the journal described the research as "an important milestone" in improving patient safety and said the lowering of mortality (死亡率) at these two hospitals "represents a truly dramatic improvement".
Data recorded on the hand-held devices is automatically uploaded to a hospital-wide system allowing nurses, doctors and managers to monitor the health of patients across all wards. Staff on ward rounds have instant access to information from any device connected to the hospital network.
The system is now installed in 40 hospitals across England and could eventually be rolled out across the whole of the NHS. The system was developed by doctors and nurses at Portsmouth working together with health improvement company The Learning Clinic.
Dr. Paul Schmidt, of Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust, one of the leaders of the project, said: "Observing patients and making accurate records provides a safety net to guard against their deterioration. We believed traditional paper charts were not doing the job well enough so we designed an electronic system to support staff. This study shows its introduction was followed by a significant drop in deaths."
1.What can be learned about VitalPAC?
A.It was designed by The Learning Clinic independently.
B.It works with the hand-held devices.
C.It can replace the nurses to take care of patients.
D.It was applied by all the members of the NHS.
2.The underlined word "this" in Paragraph 3 refers to the situation where .
A.the specialist software is out of order.
B.the patient's condition is getting worse.
C.the patient's vital signs are uploaded.
D.the patient's indicators are difficult to record.
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The significance of VitalPAC. B.The improvement of Vita1PAC.
C.The rules of operating VitalPAC. D.The brief introduction of VitalPAC.
4.Where does the text probably come from?
A.A fashion magazine. B.A story book.
C.A news report. D.A science fiction.

Having a smart phone may not be as smart as you think.They may let you surf the Internet,listen to music and take photos wherever you are…but they also turn you into a workaholic（工作狂）,it seems.
A study suggests that,by giving you access to emails at all times,the smart phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Experts found that British people work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.The study shows the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours,but 2 more hours is spent responding to or sending work emails,or making work calls.
Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers say they are on call almost 24 hours a day. Nearly two-thirds say they often check work emails just before they go to bed and as soon as they wake up, while over a third have replied to one in the middle of the night.The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m and 7 a.m, with more than a third checking their first email in the period, and a quarter checking them between 11p.m.and midnight.
Ghadi Hobeika,marketing director of Pixmania,said:“The ability to access millions of Apps has made smart phone invaluable for many people.However,there are disadvantages.Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week,and smart phones mean that people cannot get away from work.The more frequently in contact we become,the more is expected of us in a work capacity.”
1.With a smart phone the average UK working day is .
A.11 to 12 hours B.9 to 10 hours
C.8 hours D.2 hours
2.We can learn from the text that the British people .
A.prefer to check emails in the morning B.are crazy about different smart phone
C.work more hours with smart phones D.shorten their normal working hours
3.What does the underlined word “invaluable” mean?
A.useless B.necessary
C.expensive D.cheap
4.What does Ghadi Hobeika feel about smart phones?
A.They are unimportant for most of people.
B.They have disadvantages for some companies.
C.They are useful to improve a work ability.
D.They make it impossible for people to rest.

Nowadays we feel that we have become dependent on our computers, mobile phones and other media, and that we need these things to think and act creatively. But a recent study seems to indicate that the best thing we might be able to do for our creativity is leave all of these high-tech (高科技) toys at home and just take a walk in the woods.
In the study, David L. Strayer and his fellow researchers worked with 30 men and 26 women who were about to go on a four-day hike, during which they would be taken away from all of the creative toys mentioned above. Before the hike began, Strayer gave the participants (参与者) a standardized Remote Associates Test, which is often used to test creativity and creative problem-solving abilities. After the hike, they were given the test again. The result showed that there was a 50% improvement in the participants’ creative problem-solving abilities. As Strayer says, “This is a great effect.”
This study is the first to document systematic changes in higher-level cognitive (认知的) function connected with entering nature. The researchers suggest that the effect nature seems to have on improving creative thinking is due to the lack of distractions (分心的事) in the natural environment — there are no ringing phones, noisy computers, etc. Other studies have shown that the colour green — the colour of much of nature — is felt by the brain as relaxing, and that increased relaxation may be one of the factors that improve creativity.
None of this is exactly news. The benefits of nature for the mind have been known for centuries. The philosopher and author Henry David Thoreau spoke eloquently (富于表现力地) about the two years he spent in the countryside. The experience certainly seemed to develop his creativity — he went on to write almost 50 books. Given this recent study, it looks as if his advice in Walden to “simplify, simplify, simplify” is good — if you want to relax your mind and make it become more creative, take a walk in the woods, and leave your cellphone behind.
1.What can we learn from the passage?
A. High-tech toys are useless for creativity.
B. There is much news about nature’s effect on human mind.
C. Participants were asked not to take their cellphones during the hike.
D. Strayer’s study is the first to deal with nature’s effect on creativity.
2.Which of the following can encourage creativity according to the study led by Strayer?
A. The colour green.
B. Feeling relaxed in nature.
C. The silence in the natural environment.
D. Learning more knowledge about nature.
3.Henry David Thoreau suggested that people ________.
A. live a simple life
B. throw away their high-tech toys
C. take a walk in the woods every day
D. live in the countryside rather than the city
