A fit and healthy teenage rugby player died 12 hours after taking treatment for acne (粉刺), an officer, Mary Hassel, said today. She said Shaun Jones, 14, died “as a result of complications (并發(fā)癥) of medical treatment”.
Shaun, who was described by his mother as “vain” about his appearance, saw Dr Jones, his family doctor, about spots on his back and shoulders after learning his friends had been given medication to deal with similar problems.
The boy, who had previously used Clearasil to treat the spots, was diagnosed with mild acne and given a prescription. But when he went to his local chemist’s with his mother, he was told the drug was not available. They said they had contacted Dr Jones (in fact they didn’t), and Shaun could be given different pills which were the same as the drug originally prescribed.Mrs. Jones noticed there was no safety instructions included in the box, but thought nothing of it at the time.
Shaun took the drug just before going to bed at 10:30 pm. Little more than an hour later, he complained of shortness of breath and tightness in his chest. Mrs. Jones initially contacted an out-of-hours GP service but was told no doctor was available. When Shaun’s condition became worse, he was rushed to the Royal Glamorgan Hospital by ambulance in the early hours of the next morning.
Despite treatment there, and at the University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, where he was transferred, Shaun died at 10:40 am the following day. Doctors at the hospital believe an unusual reaction to the acne drug could have caused his death.
Hassel said she would write a report to the Lord Chancellor’s office underlining the importance that “doctors prescribe drugs and doctors make adjustments and patients receive drugs with the correct information attached”.

A.there were no doctors available at his local hospital

Facebook means never having to say goodbye. The social media web site has earned a reputation for reconnecting old friends. Last week, a guy whom I hadn’t seen since my bachelor party five years ago sent me a friend request. I accepted and waited for “Easy E” to send me a greeting of some kind. He had sought me out, after all.
I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son. However, I’m pretty sure we won’t ever write wall-to-wall, let alone e-mail each other. But he’ll remain a friend of mine until one of us makes a point of removing the other from his official list.
My pool of friends consists of family members, college buddies, co-workers from past and present, and friends of friends. There are 35 in all. If I spent some time uploading old e-mail addresses, I’m confident that I could increase my friend count actually.
A person could make a mission out of reconnecting with childhood friends, former classmates, distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better. And some people can even handle hundreds of on-screen relationships, keeping up with the daily happenings of their small army of companions. After all, there are worse fates than having too many friends.
Thanks to e-mail, the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a friendship must come to a close. But even with e-mail, people will lose touch if one or both parties stop writing back. That’s normal. People move from school to school, job to job, city to city. You never have to feel guilty for breaking away.
Every day, the masterminds of Web 2.0 find new ways of making human communication easier. However, convenience can be a crutch(拐杖). Some things shouldn’t be simplified. When it comes to friendship, there can be no shortcuts.
1.According to Paragraph 1, the web site is famous because ___________.
A.it has an interesting name of “Facebook”
B.it helps people get in touch with old friends
C.it can send people a greeting of some kind
D.it reminds people of the events in the past
2.From the second paragraph we can learn that the writer _____________.
A.would write to the friend quite often
B.a(chǎn)sked the friend to email him only
C.did get some information on the friend
D.would keep in touch with the friend forever
3.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.There are 35 people in the author’s list of friends right now.
B.The author communicates with all the 35 friends by e-mails.
C.The list of 35 friends doesn’t include the old e-mail addresses.
D.It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count.
4.What does the writer mean by saying “However, convenience can be a crutch”?
A.The masterminds of Web 2.0 also sell crutch on line.
B.Taking a crutch is a new way of making friends on line.
C.Convenience is dangerous for human communication.
D.Convenience is not really good for human communication.
5.What does the author think of the convenience of communicating on line?
A.The technology could not keep true friendship forever.
B.The social web site of Facebook means nothing at all.
C.There will be no ways of making real friends on line.
D.People will not lose friends with the help of the Facebook.
