问题     The Chinese have used a method called acupuncture (针炙) to perform operations for about4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep. This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.
    To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training, But to be skillful requires greater time. (79) The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.
    Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. (80) They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a nee die in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.
    A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep. It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.
Which is implied but not stated in the passage?

选项 A、The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.
B、The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.
C、The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.
D、Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.

答案B

解析 推理判断题。可用排除法。文章并未提及针灸治疗的是常见病还是疑难杂症,所以A不对。文章也没有涉及到针灸在世界的推广问题,所以C也不能选。患者在手术前麻醉时喜欢针灸胜于化学药物,而不是更喜欢用针灸治病,所以D不对。从第三段可推测出,随着中医对针灸研究的不断加深,他们一定会更加熟练、更加有效的。
