It has made great contributions to the development of China. The most commonly used are Chinese herbal medicine (草药) and acupuncture. Here is an e-mail from John to his sister which tells about acupuncture (针灸). Dear Sis,      How are things back home? Everything’s going great here!      Today, I had acupuncture for the first time! I woke up this morning with a bad backache, so I called the hotel reception desk and asked if they knew of any nearby hospitals. They gave me a list of some places I could go to, and it included an acupuncture clinic (诊所) that was right next door, so I decided to have a try.      I was surprised when the clinic staff started putting in needles (针), because I hardly felt anything at first. I thought it would hurt, but in fact I didn’t even know that I had any needles sticking in me. Then I started feeling a warm sensation in my lower back, and I became very relaxed.      I think it must have helped, because my back stopped hurting. Afterwards, I went to a shop next door that sells Chinese herbal medicines. I was amazed because there were huge glass jars full of all kinds of roots, leaves, and plants, and all sorts of things I cannot even describe. Then behind the counters was a large cupboard going all the way up to the ceiling (天花板), full of wooden drawers containing different kinds of ingredients. I didn’t know what to buy, so I ended up buying two boxes of dried ginseng (人参) — one for me, and one as a gift for you. I’ll give it to you when I get back. Love, John 78．What was wrong with John that morning? 79．Where did he go to solve his problem? 80．How did John feel when the clinic staff started putting in needles? 81．John knows Chinese herbal medicines very well, doesn’t he? 82．What do you think of TCM? 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 David is an American boy.

They gave me a list of some places I could go to, and it included an acupuncture clinic (诊所) that was right next door, so I decided to have a try.      I was surprised when the clinic staff started putting in needles (针), because I hardly felt anything at first. I thought it would hurt, but in fact I didn’t even know that I had any needles sticking in me. Then I started feeling a warm sensation in my lower back, and I became very relaxed.      I think it must have helped, because my back stopped hurting. Afterwards, I went to a shop next door that sells Chinese herbal medicines. I was amazed because there were huge glass jars full of all kinds of roots, leaves, and plants, and all sorts of things I cannot even describe. Then behind the counters was a large cupboard going all the way up to the ceiling (天花板), full of wooden drawers containing different kinds of ingredients.

In 1935, twins Dulcie and Nancie sent letters into a Sydney radio station. They wanted the host of a radio program to take their mail to Los Angeles to find them pen pals. Eighty years later, the sisters are still exchanging letters. Their pen pals are also twins. "I have one very large box full of letters and photos taken over the 80 years," Nancie said. "The letters are very interesting to read, especially the childhood ones. "The first letter asked me if I knew Shirley Temple （秀兰·邓波儿）. And of course I did. “The letters have been extremely interesting, especially over the war years. " Dulcie and Nancie first met their pen pals Barbara and Beatrice in Sydney, 50 years after they first started writing. "We've had $o many photos of them that, when they came down the stairs at the airport, I recognized them at once," Dulcie said. "We're still going. I received three letters in the last month. " Dulcie's daughter became a pen pal with Beatrice's daughter when she was eight.
