Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri-beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri-beri. He raised some chickens.
He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.
Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins
from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills. 12 The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin C. a kind of germ D. a kind of rice 13. Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens?
A. To eat them.
B. To carry out his experiments.
C. To give the Javanese a surprise. D. To make money by selling them. 14. If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.
A. eat more rice B. eat more meat C. eat some chicken D. eat vitamin pills 15. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. beri-beri was caused by chickens B. the Javanese didn’t like vitamins C. Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successful D. the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germ

Were you the first or the last child in your family? Or were you a middle or an only child? Some people think 41 matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that oldest children, 42 are smart and strong-willed, are very likely 43 (succeed). The reason 44 this is simple.
