Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
Hospitals employ many therapeutic (治疗的) methods, such as
medication (药物), massage (按摩) therapy and music therapy. And
music therapy is growing in popularity.
Sandra Siedliecki is a Senior Scientist at the Nursing
Institute of Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. She says music is a low-cost
treatment. And she says scientists have done a lot of research on music’s effect
on pain. Dr. Marian Good did a lot of studies looking at surgery (外科) patients
and the use of music. In her studies, patients just listened to relaxing music. Dr.
Good found that her surgery patients took fewer painkillers after they listened to
music. Music had a good effect on short-term pain. However, chronic pain, the kind
that recurs (复发) continually, changed a little under the effect of music.
Dr. Linda Chlan was studying something different. She was not interested in
patients’ pain, but instead, their anxiety. She spent a lot of time with people
who were in the hospital because their anxiety was so great that they couldn’t
breathe. People with this condition often have to use breathing machines. Dr. Chlan
said that the machines sometimes did little to improve their condition. Sometimes
they even made things worse. The patients would become more anxious. Dr. Chlan let
nurses tell patients that music was a good choice to make them feel better. They
also placed signs near the patients’ beds — Listen to your music at least twice
a day. The people who listened to music had a reduction (减少) in the amount of
medication they received. In addition, their anxiety reduced by about 36 percent.
Both doctors had similar explanations for why music was so helpful. Music can
be a very powerful distractor (使分心的事物) in the brain when we’re listening to
music that is pleasing and then it interrupts stressful thoughts.
【语篇概述】音乐疗法在许多医院越来越流行。研究表明, 令人感到轻松愉快的音乐可以干
扰人的大脑, 由此减少痛感、减轻压力。
