Being a doctor, you may think I would always suggest a bottle of something for what makes you ill.

【1】, first and foremost, I believe in the “do no harm” motto when it comes to health care. For example, you may first try music before【2】 (take) a pill. It is safe and it does no harm to your money.

For most people, music is already an important part of daily life. Some rely on music 【3】 (get) them through the boring journey to work, while others turn up their favorite music to stay pumped during a ke wan gworkout. Many even have the stereo on when they【4】 (cook), taking a shower, or folding the laundry.

Music is often linked to mood. 【5】 certain song can make us feel relaxed, happy, 【6】 (energy), or sad. Because music can have such an impact 【7】 mindset and well-being, it should come as no surprise 【8】 the connection between music and health has been studied for use in managing different 【9】 (condition). Music 【10】 (believe) to have healing effects, but types of music differ in the feelings they arouse. For example, classical music has been found to cause comfort and relaxation while rock music may lead to discomfort.

But as the death toll today hit a single-day U.K. record of 980-and with the peak death rate still estimated to be two weeks away-the crisis caused by the scale of the pandemic has been worsened here by a new degree of political uncertainty. Prime Minister Boris Johnson was admitted to the hospital on Sunday and has spent his days and nights in intensive care fighting the virus, surrounded by the doctors and nurses of the National Health Service.

The U.K. is not alone in showing new found public affection for key workers, nor in facing an unprecedented public health emergency that has, in Europe, especially affected Italy, Spain, and France. A recent U.K. government appeal for 250,000 volunteers to help the NHS (National Health Service) yielded an army of 750,000 would-be helpers.

But the pandemic finds the U.K. at a politically uncertain moment, as a nation finally emerging from three and a half years of political issue over its chaotic departure from the European Union. A December election that gave a decisive victory to Mr. Johnson and the ruling Conservative Party added clarity to a Brexit mandate and was seen by many as a potential first step in healing deep divisions in Britain’s political and social structure.

Acknowledging the impact of the coronavirus on daily lives, Queen Elizabeth II, in a rare address on Sunday, praised the “national spirit” and thanked NHS and care workers, whose “every hour” of hard work “brings us closer to a return to a more normal time.” Calling on citizens to “remain united and resolute” to overcome the pandemic, she sought to provide comfort. “While we may have still more to endure, better days will return We will meet again,” she said.

One day a young man was walking along the road 【1】 he heard a cry. It seemed to be coming from underneath a bridge. As he approached, the sound got louder and then he saw a pitiful sight.

It has been said of Dickens that he grasped (抓住) the imagination of his readers because his imagination grasped himself. The people in his works were so real that they could make him laugh or cry.
