Exercise 8. Read and translate the text paying attention to Complex Subject Constructions. Put questions to the underlined words. From the Classical Period to the Medieval Period, the body and the soul were believed to be intimately connected, based on several theories put forth by the philosopher Plato. Wounds on the body were believed to correlate with wounds to the soul and vice versa; wounds were seen as an outward sign of an inward illness. Thus, a man who was wounded physically in a serious way was said to be hindered not only physically but spiritually as well. If the soul was wounded, that wound may also eventually become physically manifest, revealing the true state of the soul. Wounds were also seen as writing on the " tablet" of the body. Wounds acquired in war, for example, told the story of a soldier in a form which all could see and understand, and the wounds of a martyr told the story of their faith. *a martyr ['ma: t ə ] мученик

Exercise 6. Read and translate the text: SHOCK Shock is a life-threatening medical condition as a result of insufficient blood flow throughout the body. Shock often accompanies severe injury or illness. Medical shock is a medical emergency and can lead to other conditions such as lack of oxygen in the body's tissues (hypoxia), heart attack (cardiac arrest) or organ damage. It requires immediate treatment as symptoms can worsen rapidly. Medical shock is different than emotional or psychological shock that can occur following a traumatic or frightening emotional event. The main symptom of shock is low blood pressure. Other symptoms include rapid, shallow breathing; cold, clammy skin; rapid, weak pulse; dizziness, fainting, or weakness. Depending on the type of shock the following symptoms may also be observed: eyes appear to stare, anxiety or agitation, seizures, confusion or unresponsiveness, low or no urine output, bluish lips and fingernails, sweating, chest pain. There are several types of shock: Septic shock results from bacteria multiplying in the blood and releasing toxins. Common causes of this are pneumonia, intra-abdominal infections (such as a ruptured appendix) and meningitis. Anaphylactic shock is a type of severe hypersensitivity or allergic reaction. Causes include allergy to insect stings, medicines or foods (nuts, berries, seafood), etc. Cardiogenic shock happens when the heart is damaged and unable to supply sufficient blood to the body. This can be the end result of a heart attack or congestive heart failure. Hypovolemic shock is caused by severe blood and fluid loss, such as from traumatic injury, which makes the heart unable to pump enough blood to the body. Neurogenic shock (spinal cord trauma) is caused by spinal cord injury, usually as a result of a traumatic accident or injury. Treatment for shock depends on the cause. Tests will determine the cause and severity. Usually IV fluids are administered in addition to medications that raise blood pressure. Septic shock is treated with antibiotics and fluids. Septic shock is a serious condition with a mortality rate of 24%-50%. The sooner the infection is treated and fluids are administered, the greater the chances of success. Anaphylactic shock is treated with diphenhydramine (Benadryl), epinephrine (an " Epi-pen"), and steroid medications (solu-medrol). Cardiogenic shock is treated by identifying and treating the underlying cause. Cardiogenic shock has a poor prognosis, with only 1/3 of patients surviving. Because this type of shock results from injury or dysfunction of the heart it is often difficult to treat and overcome. Hypovolemic shock is treated with fluids (saline) in minor cases, and blood transfusions in severe cases. Hypovolemic shock and anaphylactic shock respond well to medical treatment if initiated early. Neurogenic shock is the most difficult to treat as spinal cord damage is often irreversible. Immobilization, anti-inflammatories such as steroids and surgery are the main treatments. Spinal shock also has a very poor prognosis because the spinal cord mediates so many important bodily functions. There are currently very few effective treatments but medical research is making advances in the treatment of spinal injuries. Shock prevention includes learning ways to prevent heart disease, injuries, dehydration and other causes of shock. Medical shock is a medical emergency. If you suspect shock after an injury, even if the person seems stable get him to an emergency department immediately. Prompt treatment can save a person's life. The sooner shock is treated, the better. When treated quickly there is less risk of damage to a person's vital organs. Self-Care at Home · Call emergency for immediate medical attention any time a person has symptoms of shock. Do not wait for symptoms to worsen before calling for help. Stay with the person until help arrives. · While waiting for help or on the way to the emergency room, check the person's airway, breathing and circulation (the ABCs). If the person is breathing on his or her own, continue to check breathing every 2 minutes until help arrives. · Do NOT move a person who has a known or suspected spinal injury. · Have the person lie down on his or her back with the feet elevated above the head (if raising the legs causes pain or injury, keep the person flat) to increase blood flow to vital organs. Do not raise the head. · Keep the person warm and comfortable. Loosen tight clothing and cover them with a blanket. · Do not give fluids by mouth, even if the person complains of thirst. There is a risk of sudden loss of consciousness. · Give appropriate first aid for any injuries. Direct pressure should be applied to any wounds that are bleeding significantly.

Exercise 6. Read and translate: TYPES OF TUMOURS Cancer /ˈ kæ nsə /, known medically as a malignant neoplasm, is a broad group of various diseases, all involving unregulated cell growth. In cancer, cells divide and grow uncontrollably, forming malignant tumors, and invade nearby parts of the body. The cancer may also spread to more distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. Not all tumors are cancerous. Benign tumors are considered to be non-cancerous. They rarely are life- threatening and do not spread to other parts of the body. They can often be removed. There are over 200 different known cancers that afflict human the most of them may be classified into five broad groups: 1. Carcinomas are characterized by cells that cover internal and external parts of the body such as lung, breast, and colon cancer. 2. Sarcomas are characterized by cells that are located in bone, cartilage, fat, connective tissue, muscle, and other supportive tissues. 3. Lymphomas are cancers that begin in the lymph nodes and immune system tissues. 4. Leukemias are cancers that begin in the bone marrow and often accumulate in the bloodstream. 5. Adenomas are cancers that arise in the thyroid, the pituitary gland, the adrenal gland, and other glandular tissues. Determining what causes cancer is complex. Many things are known to increase the risk of cancer, including tobacco use, certain infections, radiation, lack of physical activity, obesity, and environmental pollutants. These can directly damage genes or combine with existing genetic faults within cells to cause the disease. Approximately five to ten percent of cancers are entirely hereditary. Cancer can be detected in a number of ways, including the presence of certain signs and symptoms, screening tests, or medical imaging. Once a possible cancer is detected it is diagnosed by microscopic examination of a tissue sample. Cancer is usually treated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. Most people don't realize that cancer is preventable in many cases. Learning what causes cancer and what the risk factors are is the first step in cancer prevention. Many cancer risk factors can be avoided, thus reducing the likelihood of developing cancer. Cancers that are closely linked to certain behaviors are the easiest to prevent. For example, choosing not to smoke tobacco or drink alcohol significantly lower the risk of several types of cancer - most notably lung, throat, mouth, and liver cancer. Even if you are a current tobacco user, quitting can still greatly reduce your chances of getting cancer. Some cancer prevention is based on systematic screening in order to detect small irregularities or tumors as early as possible even if there are no clear symptoms present. Breast self-examination, mammograms, testicular self-examination, and Pap smears are common screening methods for various cancers.
