Many people are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (constant) waiting for their life to start. They always say, “When I am older I will do this.” {#blank#}3{#/blank#} “In a few years, I will do that.” They think the life they {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (experience) is boring and {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (mean). Who has never viewed himself or herself as worthless and unattractive?

    All of us may suffer {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (depress) and frustration, lose guidance and support, and need aids physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Just think like this way: This too shall pass. Horrible feelings I am feeling will eventually go away. I need to stop feeling so sorry for myself and actually want to change. I am {#blank#}7{#/blank#} incredibly lucky person {#blank#}8{#/blank#} has come from a family who love and support my whole life. I had to be the one {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (make) the decision to change my way of thinking. All the good things and all the wonderful people in my life would pass eventually too. While I am feeling miserable, my life is still going on and I am missing out on appreciating those precious {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (moment).

    Increasingly, Americans are becoming their own doctors by going to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies(药店).Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care, especially{#blank#}1{#/blank#} they lack health insurance. Or they may stay away because they find it{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(embarrass) to discuss their weight, smoking, alcohol consumption or couch potato habits. Patients may also fear what they might learn about their health, or they distrust physicians because of negative {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (experience) in the past. But{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(play) doctor can also be a deadly game.

Every day, more than six million Americans turn to the Internet{#blank#}5{#/blank#}medical answers— and most of them aren't nearly sceptical enough of what they find. A 2002 survey by the Pew Internet &American Life Project found that 72 percent of those{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(survey) believe all or most of what they read on health websites. They shouldn't look up “headache” and the chances of finding {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(rely) and complete information, free from a motivation for commercial gain,{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (be) only one in ten, reports an April 2005 Brown Medical School study. Of the 169 websites the researchers rated, only 16 scored as “high quality”. Recent studies found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders, causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete, inaccurate and even dangerous{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (inform) exists on the Internet.

    The problem is most people don't know the safe way to surf the Web. “They use a search engine like Google, get 18 trillion choices and start clicking. But that's risky, because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative ( 权威的), so it's hard to know if what you're reading is {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(reason) or not,” says Dr. Sarah Bass from the National Cancer Institute.

    When I left for the United States to study, I had butterflies in my stomach. I was nervous because I was going to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} new place with new people and new customs. I couldn't even understand {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (they) language. Everything was different {#blank#}3{#/blank#} my own country. There was nobody that I could talk to. I just had my husband, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} was a new person for me, too.

    It was a sad moment when I had to say goodbye to my family and friends. I didn't want {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (leave) my hometown because I grew up there and had wonderful {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (memory) of the place. So, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(think) about all these changes made me nervous and I was {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (worry) about my new life. But studying abroad was a {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(decide) that I made myself. I had to continue and accept the challenge. I looked forward to {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (visit) my family in the summer vacation.
