My father, at the death of his father, was six years old, and he grew up without education. He moved from Kentucky to Indiana when I was seven. We reached our new home about the time the state came into the Union. It was a wild area, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. I grew up there. There were some so called schools, but what required (需要)of a teacher never went beyond “reading, writing, and adding.” If a stranger supposed to understand Latin happened to live for a time in the area, he was looked on wizard (奇才). There was simply nothing to excite a desire for education. Of course, when I grew up, I did not know much. Still, somehow, I could read, write, and add, but that was all. The advance I have now made is on this store of education, which I have picked up under the pressure(压力)of necessity.

People today expect to be examined when they enter a doctor's office. At least they expect their blood pressure and temperature to be measured. However, as recently as two hundred years ago, a doctor's treatment depended on talking with the patient. In general, the communication(交流)between doctors and patients was the most important part of medical methods(方法). The modern age of medicine began with the stethoscope, an instrument(仪器)for listening to patient's heartbeat and breathing. Before that, a doctor did not touch a patient. In fact there was no such thing as a medical examination. All treatment was the result of the patient's telling the doctor what the problem was and the doctor's being able to understand it.
The stethoscope…and all the other medical instruments…had a section effect on the practice of medicine. Doctors became better at finding the medical problems. More lives were saved. At the same time, doctors give less importance to the communication between patients and doctors. Some doctors actually stopped talking to their patients. It is easy to understand why some sick people thought of themselves as broken machines.
51. Today doctors ________.
have to be more skillful than they used to be
mainly depend on their reservation of the patients
can satisfy their patients with various tests
are less respected by their patients than before
52. About 200 years ago, doctors did not know ________.
the importance of deserving the patient's breath
the relation between heartbeat and illness
the methods of how to question their patients
the necessity of asking patients about their health

A doctor needs to have more instruments than before.
Now communication between doctors and patients is not as important as before.

an instrument for checking health conditions
a kind of medicine for treating coughs
a kind of heart disease
a new medical treatment
55. The best title for this passage is ________.
A. The Stethoscope B. The Development of Medical Methods
C. The Medical Methods of Two Hundred Years Ago
D. How Doctors Treat Their Patients Today
