PRACTITIONERS
　　Jacqueline Felice de Almania(c. 1322) highlights the suspicion that women practicing medicine faced. Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery. In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully. In spite of the court hearing testimonials(证明) of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine. 　　James Barry(c. 1789-1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine. She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas. Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man.
　　Tan Yunxian(1461-1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents. Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships(学徒期) with doctors. However, Tan passed the official exam. Tan treated women from all walks of life. In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician. 　　Rebecca Lee Crumpler(1831-1895) worked as a nurse for eight years before studying in medical college in Boston in 1860.

　　“I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture(针灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he'll have the last laugh. He's one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians(兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine—combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic(按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.
Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture,an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.
Leigh Tindale's dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber's treatments eased her dog's suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.
Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That's my job.”
4.What do some of Farber's coworkers think of him
A.He's odd.　　　B.He's strict.
C.He's brave.　　　D.He's rude.
5.Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets
A.He was trained in it at university.
B.He was inspired by another veterinarian.
C.He benefited from it as a patient.
D.He wanted to save money for pet owners.
6.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A.Steps of a chiropractic treatment.
B.The complexity of veterinarians' work.
C.Examples of rare animal diseases.
D.The effectiveness of holistic medicine.
7.Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association
A.To prove Farber's point.
B.To emphasize its importance.
C.To praise veterinarians.
D.To advocate animal protection.

高考真题练
A
◎语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四位女医生。
1.C　细节理解题。本题问Jacqueline和James有什么共同点。根据Jacqueline Felice de Almania部分的“she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery”以及James Barry部分的“She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas.”可知,Jacqueline和James都做外科手术(Performing surgery)。故选C。
2.A　细节理解题。根据Tan Yunxian部分中的“In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician.”可知,谈允贤曾经写过一本介绍自己从医经历的书《女医杂言》。再对比其他三位女医生的介绍可知,她们都没有写书。故选A。
3.D　细节理解题。根据题干关键词the first African American with a medical degree可定位到Rebecca Lee Crumpler部分。根据“Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree.”可知,Rebecca Lee Crumpler是第一位获得医学学位的非洲裔美国黑人。故选D。
【高考词汇站】　1.unlawfully　2.ability　3.medical
4.official　5.在国外,在海外　6.祖父,祖母,外祖父,外祖母　7.从事,执业
长难句
原句　Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery.
分析　本句是主从复合句。where引导定语从句,修饰先行词Paris。过去分词短语Born to a Jewish family in Florence作状语。
译文　她出生在佛罗伦萨的一个犹太家庭,后来搬到了巴黎,在那里她成了一名医生,并做外科手术。
B
◎语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个外国兽医借鉴中医技术,通过针灸医治动物的故事。
4.A　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods(他的一些同事偶尔会嘲笑他不寻常的方法)”可推知,一些同事认为他奇怪。故选A。
5.C　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.(然后,他尝试了针灸——一种古老的中国疗法,并惊讶地发现,经过两三次治疗,他的病情有所好转。对他有效的方法似乎对他要治疗的宠物也有效。因此,在学习了几年这些技术后,他开始把此方法应用在宠物身上。)”可推知,Farber背疼时针灸疗法对他有效,因此,他才将这项疗法使用到宠物身上。故选C。
6.D　主旨大意题。根据第三段可知,Farber使Leigh Tindale的宠物狗减轻痛苦,多活了五个月,并让Priscilla Dewing的马行动更轻便,骑起来更舒适,这些都说明整体医学疗法对于动物治疗的有效性。故选D。
7.A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time(Farber确信,随着时间的推移,整体疗法将越来越受欢迎)”和后文提及的“自1982年以来,美国整体兽医协会的会员已经从30个增长到700多个”可以推断出,作者提及美国整体兽医协会是为了证明Farber认为整体疗法将越来越受欢迎的观点。故选A。

长难句
原句　After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber's treatments eased her dog's suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months.
分析　本句是并列复合句。but 连接两个并列分句。在前一分句中,after引导时间状语从句;在后一分句中,so...that引导结果状语从句。
译文　Tindale说,Charlie心脏病发作后,她准备让其安乐死,但Farber的治疗大大减轻了她的狗的痛苦,以至于她能够让它多活五个月。
