14.Evaluating Sources (来源) of health Information
Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation.A key firs t step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information.Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information,how to separate fact from opinions,how to recognize poor reasoning,and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources.(1)G 
Go to the original source.Media reports often simplify the results of medical research.Find out for yourself what a study really reported,and determine whether it was based on good science.Think about the type of study.(2)DWatch for misleading language.Some studies will find that a behavior"contributes to"or is"associated with"an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result.(3)FCarefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.
Use your common sense.If a report seems too good to be true,probably it is.Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements.(4)BEvaluate"scientific"statements carefully,and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).
(5)A Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration,but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.

9.Music is particularly popular in the medical profession,especially among surgeons(外科医生).A recent survey shows that 90% of surgeons in the UK put music on the sound system in the theatreduring operations.Plastic surgeons(整形外科医生)play the most music; it appears that ear,nose,and throat specialists the least.
But it isn't only in surgeries(外科手术) where music is popular.In another recent survey,one-third of the 1,613people said they listen to music while working.And 79% of them said that humming(哼歌)along improves their job satisfaction or productivity.
Is listening to music at work a good idea?Yes,say the experts.Many surgeons say that music helps to create a"calm atmosphere",and a third of them added that it avoids getting bored!Also,listening to music raises the levels of a brain chemical that can help people focus.Office workers say it improves job satisfaction.Several studies suggest that it's also good for hospital patients.Those listening to music through headphones during surgery require less anesthetic(麻醉剂),up to 50% less in some cases,and recover more quickly afterwards."Sure,music reduces anxiety before surgery,"says Zeev Kain,an anesthetist at Yale University.
So,what type of music should we be listening to?Surgeons from the previous survey preferred rock,pop music and classical.And hip-hop is popular too.However,whatever the kind,it appears that self-selected music is the best choice.Pennsylvania State University research showed that when people chose their own music there was more stress reduction(下降).And other researchers found that when listening to self-selected music,surgeons did the maths faster and more accurately (精确)than when they were listening to music chosen for them.
32.The underlined word"theatre"in Paragraph 2probably meansC.
A.a waiting room in a hospital     
B.a rest room for surgeons
C.an operating room             
D.a building where shows are performed
33.The surveys mentioned in the passage showA.
A.music is popular in some professions   
B.most surgeons in the UK are fond of singing
C.office workers learn a lot from listening to music
D.fewer than half of the people listen to music at work
34.What are the advantages of listening to music at work?D.
①improving memory   ②keeping people relaxed
③improving job satisfaction   ④improving eyesight
A.①④
B.①②
C.②④
D.②③
35.The passage is mainly aboutD.
A.how to choose music wisely         
B.where to find the best music
C.the popularity of music in hospitals    
D.the benefits of listening to music at work.
