醫學英語視聽說教程（簡體書）

《醫學英語視聽說教程》內容簡介：隨著我國大學英語教學改革的不斷深入開展，21世紀中國大學英語教育將逐步向專門用途英語（ESP，English for Specinc Purposes）方向發展，專門用途英語將成為中國大學英語教育的主流。醫學英語（EMP, English for Medical Purpose）是專門用途英語中非常有特色的一個分支。在醫學專業學習、醫學科學研究、臨床醫學工作、國際醫學學術交流活動等方方面面，醫學英語都表現了它在專門用途英語教學和醫學發展過程中越來越重要的作用。如何將大學英語教學與醫科學生的專業培養結合，如何將英語語言學習融合于醫學專業學習之中，這是廣大醫學英語教學工作者面臨的一項極富挑戰性的工作。《高等院校新概念醫學英語系列教材》正是適應這種新形勢和挑戰的產物。

《醫學英語視聽說教程》是高等院校新概念醫學英語系列教材之一。

The kidneys are the main organs of the excretory system. They are a little larger than a bar of soapand are shaped like kidney beans. They are located just above the waist with one on each side of the spinal column. The two kidneys are protected by layers of fat and by the bottom ribs. They are behindthe stomach. They are the body's filtration system. The kidneys help to maintain a balance among theelements inside the body. This balance is referred to as homeostasis.
The kidneys perform the following important jobs. They remove urea and other wastes fromthe blood, regulate the amount of water in the circulatory system, and adjust the amounts of certain substances in the blood. The kidneys filter wastes and poisons from the blood at an incredible rate.They filter about one fourth of a liter of blood per minute as it is sent to them through arteries of the circulatory system. This means that the entire blood supply passes through the kidneys once every 30 minutes. Within each kidney are an estimated one million microscopic nephrons where the filtering actually takes place.
This complex network of capillaries and nephron tubes is illustrated here. Each nephron contains acluster of capillaries called a glomerulus. A cup-shaped sac called a Bowman's capsule surrounds each glomerulus. The blood that flows through the glomerulus is under great pressure. This causes water,urea, glucose, and minerals to move into the Bowman's capsule. Red blood cells, white blood cells,and proteins remain in the blood. As the blood continues through the blood vessels it winds around therenal tubule.
