Medicine
The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing. Medicine is the science or practice of the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease. It encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.
Medicine can involve art, science, or both. It has existed for thousands of years, during most of which it was an art that frequently had connections to the religious and philosophical beliefs of each culture. For example, a medicine man would apply herbs and say prayers for healing, or an ancient philosopher and physician would apply bloodletting according to the theories of humorism.
In recent centuries, since the advent of science, most medicine has become a combination of art and science (both basic and applied, under the umbrella of medical science). Thus, while the perfect stitching technique for suturing an artery is still an art that surgeons learn by practicing, the knowledge of what happens at the cellular and molecular level in the tissues being stitched comes from science. The older, prescientific forms of medicine are now known as traditional medicine and folk medicine. Although they are no longer the sole type of medicine, they are still used to complement scientific medicine and are thus called complementary and alternative medicine. For example, although acupuncture and herbal medicine are ancient arts that include unscientific components, they can still sometimes provide relief of pain, symptoms, or anxiety and are thus still valued by many patients regardless of the chemical or physical mechanisms by which they work. Thus they continue to have value in health care, within the limits of safety and efficacy. Contemporary medicine applies biomedical sciences, biomedical research, genetics and medical technology to diagnose, treat, and prevent injury and disease, typically through medication or surgery, but also through therapies as diverse as psychotherapy, external splints and traction, prostheses, biologies, pharmaceuticals, ionizing radiation among others.
选项
A、It is the prescientific form of medicine.
B、It is no longer the sole type of medicine.
C、It is still used to complement scientific medicine.
D、It used to be complementary or alternative centuries ago.
答案
D
解析
根据原文“Although they are no longer the sole type of medicine,they are still used to complement scientific medicine and are thus called complementary and alternative medicine”可知,过去传统医学一统天下,现如今却风光不再,但仍然被用来补充现代医学。D选项说传统医学在过去就是一种替代性医学,这是不符合事实的,故D为正确答案。
