I.异域风情
1.Bringing Art into Hospitals The medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play an important role in helping patients to get better.
As part of nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the museum and into public places,some of the country’s best artists have been called in to change older hospitals and to soften the hard edges of modern buildings.Of the 2 500 national health service hospitals in Britain,almost l00 now have very valuable collections of present art in passages,waiting areas and treatment rooms.
These recent movements first started by one artist,Peter Senior,who set up his studio at a Manchester hospital in northeastern England during the early 1970s.He felt the artist had 1ost his place in modern society,and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience. A common hospital waiting room might have as many as 5 000 visitors each week.What a better place to hold regular exhibition of art! Senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the outpatients waiting area of the Manchester Royal Hospital in 1975.Believed to be Britain’s first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that a team of six young art school graduates soon joined him.
The effect is striking.Now in the passages and waiting rooms,the Visitor experierices a full view of fresh colors, playful images and restful courtyards. The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an i11ness.A study has shown that patients who had a view onto garden needed half the number of strong painkillers compared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at. 2.Possible Spread of SARS at Workplace The respiratory(呼吸的) virus known as SARS has appeared to spread in the United States only to family members of health workers with close contact(接触)to a sick person.
On Thursday,the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said there might be a case of severe acute respiratory(呼吸)syndrome(症状)spreading through the workplace.
Dr.Julie Gerberding said a suspected SARS virus patient who became ill after traveling to Asia might have infected a co—worker in Florida,which made her “very worried ”.
So far, a dozen people—nine family members and three health workers—were infected(感染)after coming into close contact with the person with SARS.The rest of the 166 suspected American cases have something to do with the person with SARS.The rest of the 166 suspected American cases have something to do with people who were infected while traveling in Asia.
In the Gainesville,Fla.area,a 47一year-old woman was believed to have been infected at work by a 60一year-old woman who was the nation's first suspected SARS case,said Tom Belcuore,director of the Alachua County health department.

Since the World Health Organization announced a worldwide warning last month about SARS,the United States has started infection control in hospitals and among families of suspected cases. Florida officials said a school in okaloosa County went through a cleaning after a 6一year-old boy suspected of having SARS appeared at school with slight symptoms.“Health officials are watching the boys “contacts at school to make sure no one else is infected.”said Rob Hayes, health department spokesman, “The boy may have been infected from a family member, ”Hayes said, “We immediately became aware of it and had the child sent home.He's staying at home with his family until 10 days after symptoms disappear.”
The researchers guessed that the virus might have come from animals.However,the scientists have not ruled out the possibility that some other microbe(微生物)might also help make SARS more serious or easier to catch. Ⅱ.知识归纳 1.wish 用法归纳
