Once I was travelling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us.The man on the space on my side of the table at all. I was angry.

【題目】 Now and then we get ill. Then we usually go to a doctor. Doctor knows a lot about what can makes us ill. They may give us some medicine to take. The medicine often makes us well again.

But sometimes the doctor’s medicine doesn’t work. A sick person does not get well. The pain will not go away. This happened to Jimmy. He was in hospital, but he was not getting well. Then he found a new “doctor” inside himself. This “doctor” was his own sense of humor (幽默). He saw funny films. He read funny books. And then something wonderful happened. Laughing took away his pain. Then he was able to sleep and rest. His own happy feeling helped him to feel well again. He said laughing was his best “medicine”. His doctor thought so, too.

Another man, Mario, was ill. And he had a terrible pain in his back. The doctor could not stop it. So the man began to “picture” his pain. In his head he “drew” a picture of a dog. He imagined it was a real dog. And he made friends with the dog. And his pain went away!

These stories may surprise you. But more and more people are getting well in this way. So visit the “doctor” inside your own head and you can stay happy and well.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子正誤。正確的用“A”表示,不正確的用“B”表示。

1Medicine can make sick people well again all the time.

2Jimmy’s new “doctor” was his own sense of humor.
