G0xk @SE Y{f;qbEQH' In former times, doctors in Taiwan, whowere considered saviors, were greatly admired. This is not only because theywere able to
51 sick people oftheir pain and save their lives, but also because they demonstrated an
52 willingness to help the sick. However, now inthis industrial world, people are
53 to chase material possessions. This is true
54 doctors, too. The high income of doctors isthe
55 of other people. Many high school graduatesare eager to get into medical colleges, and countless girls consider doctors tobe their best choice of husbands. For many years the public has
56 that doctors in public hospitals demand moneyfrom inpatients. The amount of money the patients give determines the kind of
57 they receive. It has also been said that alarge pharmaceutical factory set up by U.S. investors declared that it wouldstop giving kickbacks
(回扣)to doctors
58 the factory has spent too much money
59 sales over the years. This declaration hascaused quite a stir in our society. We wonder

)Uo)3FAn -]A,SBs Passage One bt-y6,> +E Cells cannot remainalive outside certain limits of temperature, and much narrower limits mark theboundaries of effective functioning. Enzyme (
酶) systemsof mammals and birds are most efficient only within a narrow range around 37oC;a departure of a few degrees from this value seriously impairs theirfunctioning. Even though cells can survive wider fluctuations, the integratedactions of bodily systems are impaired. Other animals have a wider tolerancefor changes of bodily temperature.
'HH[[9Q For centuries it has beenrecognized that mammals and birds differ from other animals in the way theyregulate body temperatures. Ways of characterizing the difference have becomemore accurate and meaningful over time, but popular terminology still reflectsthe old division into “warm-blooded’ and “cold-blooded” species; warm-bloodedincluded mammals and birds, whereas all other creatures were considered cold-blooded.As more species were studied, it became evident that this classification wasinadequate. A fence lizard or a desert iguana (
鬣蜥)—eachcold-blooded—usually has a body temperature only a degree or two below that ofhumans and so is not cold. Therefore the next distinction was made betweenanimals that maintain a constant body temperature, called homotherms
(同温动物), and those whose body temperature varies with their environment,called poikilotherms(
变温动物). But this classification alsoproved inadequate, because among mammals there are many that vary their bodytemperatures during hibernation. Furthermore, many invertebrates(
无脊椎动物) that live in the depths of the ocean never experience a change inthe chill of the deep water, and their body temperatures remain constant.
