Psychology tries to explain why people act, think, and feel the way they do. It is a young and growing science that covers a broad range of human activities.

Psychologists are interested not only in how individual minds work but also in the various interactions ( 交互作用 ) of minds in society.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Background Information

The whole field of psychoanalysis originated with the research of the Austrian doctor, Sigmund Freud (1856-1939).

Sigmund Freud

According to his theories, people are driven by irrational forces or primitive ( 原始的 ) instincts ( 本能 ). Much of Freud’s work was based on his interpretation of dreams and sexual instincts.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Background Information

How does behavior therapy work?

♣ Behavior therapy teaches patients to quell the anxiety that arises from social situations, and to face these situations rather than avoid them.

♣ It is not something done to a patient; it is a structured set of techniques that a patient learns to employ whenever anxiety, panic, discomfort, disfunction or avoidance arises.

♣ It focuses on specific steps a patient can take to reduce anxiety and keep it from returning.

1. Pre-Reading Questions1. Pre-Reading Questions

When you have any health problems, will you always go to the doctor? If so, what do you expect from the doctor?

You can refer to the following words and expressions:

diagnose the problem comfort me

write a prescription time consuming

give some tests a serious case

get over the problem more water

Part Two: In-Class Reading >>Global Reading

Page 9: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

When I have health problem, I will go to the

doctor. I want the doctor to examine me, to

diagnose the problem, to write a prescription or to

tell me if there is anything I should or should not do.

I want the doctor to give me some necessary tests.

Above all, I always expect the doctor to tell me that I

will be able to get over the problem or recover

quickly.

Sample 1

Part Two: In-Class Reading >>Global Reading

Page 10: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

I usually avoid going to the hospital because to see a doctor is really tiring and time-consuming. So when I don’t feel well and it’s not a very serious case, what I usually do is to have a good rest. For example, when I have a cold, I will drink a lot of water and stay in bed. If it’s a serious health problem and I can’t recover by taking a good rest, I’ll go to the doctor and get some medicine. Just like most people, I hope the doctor will comfort me besides prescribing me the medicine.

Is there really a doctor in the body? If so, who do you think is the doctor? Why?

I think there is a doctor in the body and it is the mind. Usually if we are quite confident, we will react as if everything will go well. That is to say, if we are mentally sure that we will get better, the body will start functioning better. Otherwise we will lose heart and our illness will probably get worse. I really believe in the power of “mind over matter”.

It depends. If I got better, I would feel lucky to have been given a placebo instead of real medicine because medicine often has some side effects. However, if I didn’t feel better, I would be very angry and probably would never go back to that doctor.

  Is there a Doctor in the Body?

When you go to the doctor, you like to come away with a prescription. It makes you feel better to know you will get some medicine. But the doctor knows that medicine is not always needed. 1Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance

that all will be well. In such cases the doctor may prescribe a placebo.

2A placebo is a sugar pill, a harmless shot, or an empty capsule. Even though they have no medicine in them, these things seem to make people well. The patient thinks it is medicine and begins to get better. How does this happen?

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Detailed Reading

Page 24: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

The study of the placebo opens up new knowledge about the way the human body can heal itself. 3It is as if

there was a doctor in each of us. The “doctor” will heal the body for us if we let it.

4But it is not yet known just how the placebo works to heal the body. Some people say it works because the human mind fools itself. 5

These people say that if the mind is fooled into thinking it got medicine, then it will act as if it di

d, and the body will feel better

.

Other people say this is not so. 6

They say that the placebo makes the wish to get better become reality. The placebo will not work if the patient knows it is a placebo. This shows that the body is not fooled by it.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Detailed Reading

Page 25: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

It seems that if patients think they have been given medicine, they will have hope. They feel that they are getting some help. This gives them a stronger will to get better, and that is what helps to heal them.

Placebos do not always work. The success of this treatment seems to rest a lot with the relationship between the patient and the doctor. If the patient has a lot of trust in the doctor and if the doctor really wants to help the patient, then the placebo is more likely to work. So in a way, the

doctor is the most powerful placebo of all.

An example of the doctor’s role in making the placebo work can be seen in this study. Some patients with bleeding ulcers were put in two groups.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Detailed Reading

Page 26: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

The first group were told by a doctor that they had been given a new drug which, it was hoped, would give them some relief. 7

The second group were told by a nurse that they had been given a new drug but that not much

was known about how it would work

. As a result, 70 percent of the people in the first group got much better. Only 25 percent of the people in the second group got better. And both groups had in fact been given the same thing—a placebo.

The placebo has been found to work with a lot of different cases. It helps such things as seasickness, coughs, colds, and even pain after an operation. And there was an experiment done to see if a placebo could help old people stay healthy and live longer.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Detailed Reading

Page 27: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

The test was done in Romania with 150 people over the age of 60. They were put in three groups with 50 people in each group. The first group were given nothing at all. The second group were given a placebo. The third group were given a real drug and told that it would help with the problems of old age. (In fact, it was not a drug for old age at all.) The three groups were studied for many years. The first group showed no changes from the way old people in that village had always been. The second group (with the placebo) had much better health and a lower death rate. The third group (with the real drug) showed much the same results as the group that took the placebo.

Part Two: In-Class Reading >> Detailed Reading

Page 28: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

A placebo can also have bad effects. If patients expect a bad reaction to medicine, then they will also show a bad reaction to the placebo. 8

This would seem to show that a lot of how you react to medicine is in your mind rather than

in your body. Some doctors still think that if the placebo can have bad effects it should never be used. They think there is still not enough known about it.

And yet, the use of the placebo has been well known for hundreds of years in other countries. Tribal doctors in some African countries have known for a long time that patients will get better if they think they are going to. Many of the “treatments” they use do not seem able to make a sick person better, and yet such treatments work.

Page 29: In-Class Reading Is There a Doctor in the Body? Part Two: In-class Reading Background Information Global Reading Detailed Reading Post-Reading.

The strange power of the placebo does seem to suggest that the human mind is stronger than we think it is. There are people who say you can heal your body by using your mind. And the interesting thing is that even people who swear this is not possible have been healed by a placebo. (839 words)

1. Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance that all will be well.

有时病人所需要的只是一个一切都会好的保证。

“That all will be well” is the appositive clause of “reassurance”. Other words such as “fact, opinion, notion, suggestion, proposal, thought, news, truth, report”, can also be followed by appositive clauses.
