Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences.
Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase the effect of painful memories.
In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.
The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldier’ troubling memories after war.
They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry（精神病學(xué)）at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”
But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity（特性）. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past. “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I’m not sure we’d want to wipe those memories out,” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist（倫理學(xué)家）.
Some people fear that although the drug would first be used in only very serious cases, it would become more and more common. “People always have the ability to misuse science,” said Joseph Le Doux, a New York University memory researcher. “All we want to do is to help people have better control of memories.”
What’s the main idea of this passage?
A．People often suffer from bad memories.
B．American researchers are trying to develop a pill.
C．Forget bad memories, and be happy.
D．The research has caused a heated argument.
The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to “ ”.
A．the new drug B．the research into the drug
C．the bad memory D．the chemical in the drug
Which of the following is NOT the opinion of the supporters?
A．The pill can erase all the memories in the past.
B．Some memories can ruin people’s lives. The pill can relieve emotional suffering.
C．The pill can also help many other types of people who suffer from terrible memories.
D．The pill can prevent or treat troubling memories in soldiers after war.
Which of the following is NOT the opinion of the opponents（反對者）？
A．Our memories give us our identity.
B．The memories help human avoid mistakes of the past.
C．The drug should be used in only very serious cases.
D．People may not be sure whether they want to wipe the memories out.

Every person leaves a footprint. That’s what I learnt when I started to work as a private investigator 10 years ago．People pay restaurant bills with their bank card，check into hotels or travel around. In every case，they leave a trace．And because of this，I’m able to track them down even when they don’t want to be found．
The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighbourhood where he used to live．It’s human nature to tell stories―which is why neighbours will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses．Sometimes，someone even talks about his friend’s dishonesty．Then I produce a pattern of my subject’s life：if he likes to have a holiday in Spain or in Italy，if he prefers two- or three- star hotels and where he might hide his assets(資產(chǎn))．When I’ve got this life pattern，I start my rescarch．
Nine times out of l0，I find the people I’m looking for．I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed ￡500,000 to a subcontractor(分包商)．The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier．I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son，who founded a new company offering the same product．It was a11 done within the law．There was no money to be got from that operation．
However, I asked the son if I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldn’t be back for a while．It didn’t take me long to find out that the father wasn’t in Spain．
I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria,and I found him doing winter sports in a beautiful mountain area．He was 1iving in a big house on a 1arge piece of land he had bought for є 400，000．This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was loooking for．
52．We learn from the text that a private investigator is one who_______.
A．follows people reports on what they do
B．helps people start businesses
C．gives advice to people about the law
D．settles arguments between companies
53．Why does the author visit the place where his subject used to stay？
A．To find out hi hidden assets．
B．To gather information about him．
C．To discover why he is dishonest．
D．To find out where he spends his holiday．

A．pass on his debt to his son
B．double the business of his company
C．le this son take over his lorry business
D．prevent paying back the money he owed
