22、 to the American Indian nations. The nation of the Cherokees lived in what is now the southeastern part of the United States. After the white man came, the Cherokees copied many of their ways.

Then he took the 85 sounds that made up the language. Using his own imagination and an English spelling book, Sequoyah i
24、nvented a sign for each sound. His alphabet proved amazingly easy to learn. Before long, many Cherokees knew how to read and write in their own language.

38、e chance that a healthy, older man will suffer from a heart attack.The study offered two new results from earlier findings. It said taking one aspirin pill every other day helped only healthy men over the age of fifty. It also said aspirin gave the greatest protection against heart attacks to men wi
39、th low blood cholesterol(胆固醇)levels.Earlier studies showed that aspirin reduced the chance of heart attacks in men with heart disease. But there was no proof that aspirin would do the same for healthy men.Researchers in the United States began a major aspirin study in the early 1980s. It included 22
40、,000 healthy male doctors. All were between the age of forty and eighty-four. More than 11,000 of the doctors took one aspirin pill every other day. Each pill contained 325 milligram of aspirin. The other 11,000 doctors took a harmless pill that contained no drug. The men did not know which kind of
41、pill they were taking.The doctors who took aspirin suffered 44 percent fewer heart attacks than those taking the harmless pill. 139 men who took aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Ten of them died. 239 men who did not take aspirin suffered form heart attacks. Twenty-six of them died.The researcher
42、s said the doctors study provides clear proof that taking aspirin can prevent a first heart attack in healthy, older men. They said, however, the result do not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. They said aspirin cannot help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarett
43、es and who are fat. The researchers said men who think they would be helped by taking aspirin should talk with their doctors first.67The passage tells us that the new use of aspirin is .Ato treat heart diseaseBto reduce pain while one suffers form a heart attackCto help old people to be more healthy
44、Dto reduce the chance of a heart attack in healthy old men68Aspirin can help those who .Awork as doctorsBare under 40 years old Care fat and smoke cigarettesDare older and healthy69At last the researchers advise us to take aspirin .Awith careBas much as we likeCevery dayDonly considering the age70Fr
