5] Read the passage then answer the questions:
Today, many people use natural ways to cure illnesses that dont cause side effects.
Acupuncture and biofeedback are two popular methods. Doctors have been using
acupuncture in China for over two thousand years. It involves pushing needles into the skin
at special points around the body. Ancient Chinese philosophers believed that they were
connected to different organs and could cure diseases.
Today, acupuncture is used in many countries, and studies show that it works especially
for headaches, backaches and smoking. Since the 1950s, doctors in China have also been
using acupuncture in major operations. Patients are awake and know what is happening in
the operation but they feel little or no pain. Scientists think that the needles make the body
produce a chemical called endorphin that helps to reduce the feeling of pain.
Another natural way to cure illnesses is biofeedback. It uses technology to help people
control their internal organs. For example, if a person has problems with sleeping, he/she is
connected to a special computer that shows the activity of the brain. The person then is
asked to do some mental exercises to relax. When the brain activity falls and the person is
relaxed, the computer makes a noise. Slowly, the person learns what type of mental
exercises can help him/her to reduce the activity of the brain.

these other kinds of art.
Posters and other forms of advertisements are all around us, especially in towns and cities,
and we cannot help seeing them. If they are successful advertisements, they make us want

attractive. We can say that different forms of art are all around us and have a big effect on
our everyday life.
