There are three branches of medicine . One is called “doctor medicine” , or “scientific medicine”. Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses , look for logical patterns , and then find out how the human body works . From there they figure out what treatments may work . This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is successful , in the ancient world this approach probably did not cure many patients .
A second kind of medicine is called “natural cures,” of “folk medicine ,” in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs . These folk healers also use observation and logic , but they are not so aware of it . They try things until they find something that seems to work , and then they keeping doing that . Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine .
The third kind is called “health saps,” or “faith healing.” Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed . Other times , a magician may make you a magic charm , or say a spell , to cure you . Some religious groups organize special healing shrines for the sick . In these places people rest , get plenty of sleep , eat healthy food , drink water instead of wine , and exercise in various ways . They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods . If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard , going to these places may be just the right thing to make you feel better .

Net library is a library that lends out digital books. It treats a digital book like a paperback copy. It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of the total income.
From the consumer’s point of view, this means that if more than five people want the latest Danielles Steel romance novel, other people who request that book will get a message saying the title is unavailable. It’s a model many publishers seem to have embraced. More than 350 gave the company rights to hand out their digital works, and McGraw Hill Corporation and Houghton Mifflin Corporation have out money in the company. The California public libraries and about 1,800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library services.
Some librarians criticize the New Library model. Stanford University librarian Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital works, which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet.
Keller and some other librarians argue for the e-book vision set forth by Ebrary. Ebrary is starting a service that lets us users read books for free.
But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to print out the material or a copy and paste it into a different file or tries to download a copy onto a computer.
Christopher Warnock, chief executive of Ebrary, believes most consumers won’t want to buy entire books, only the parts that interest them.
“There’s not really a lot of good in owning an electronic file and having to store it and manage it. It doesn’t make sense,” he said.
5. The word “embraced” in the third paragraph means __________________.
A. tried out something hard B. disliked something badly
C. taken something willingly D. held something tightly
6. From the second paragraph we can see consumers __________________.
A. complain about the limited number of the new books
B. don’t care if they are charged money
C. don’t like other people borrowing books
D. enjoy the service of the Net Library
7. How do publishers get money from the net Library?
A. They get the money from the readers.
B. They get the money by cutting the cost of the books.
C. They get the money from selling their books to the Net Library.
D. They share the money with the net library.
8. What does the last paragraph mean?
A. It’s reasonable to charge the consumers money for copying some pages.
B. There is no need for consumers to have a whole book.
C. Net Library is not a good way for the consumers.
D. Ebrary is not a good library for the consumers.
