Most Americans never take a bath. They soap and rinse off under the shower. The English always take a bath. First, they sit in a bathtub full of warm water. Then they soap themselves, and finally, they rinse off the soap, all in the same water. The Japanese, on the other hand, first wash with soap in the shower. Then they go and sit in a bathtub full of warm water for twenty minutes or more. Later, others in the family use the same water to sit and relax in.The Thai do not get into a shower or a bathtub. They stand in a room or area of ahouse where there is a big jar full of water. With a bowl they pour water from the jar on themselves. The Thai always wear a long piece of cloth called a pasin around their bodies so that other people do not see their bodies. They wear this when they are bathing.Everyone gets clean in a different way. We know that washing is good and healthy for us. But this was not true in the past. Up to 1800, most Americans did not bath because they thought it was bad for them.50. Which people like to sit in a large container where they sit to wash their whole bodies?A. The AmericansB.

Many of them have already turned to medicines to fight against sleeplessness and fear about the future, two of the signs of long-term stress and depression. In Britain, people spend 650 million pounds a year on different kinds of medicines. About one-third of this is spent on those medicines dealing with stress and depression. People take three million sleeping tablets every night. Although these “drugs of the mind” can be extremely u seful in case of crisis, most patients would be better off without them.There are many cause of stress: uninteresting work, unemployment, poorhousing, family problems, over-crowding and financial worry are all important factors. Nevertheless, doctors believe that if people learnt to breathe properly, took more exercise, used their leisure time more actively and expressed their anger instead of holding it in, they would not depend so much on drugs, which treat only the outward signs and not the cause of the stress. If doctors refused prescriptions(处方) more often and discouraged patients with minor illnesses from visiting them. The country would have more money to spend in improving leisure facilities and adult education, which are at present inadequate in many parts of the country. Moreover, doctors would have more time to spend on those patients in real need of their help.53.
