Almost everyone suffers from a headache sometimes.But some people suffer from repeated, frequent headaches.
What is headache? What causes it? What can be done about a headache? What research is being done on headaches?
The dictionary defines(下定义) headache simply as “a pain in the head.” What most people mean by headache is a pain which lasts several minutes or hours.It covers the whole head, or one side of it, or perhaps the front or the back of the head.To add to the confusion(困惑) about a definition, some people call tight feeling in the head a headache.
A headache is important because it can be the first warning of a serious condition which probably could be controlled if discovered early.If a person removes the warning, day after day, with a pain-killer, he may pass the point of easy control.
The professional name for covering up a symptom(症状) is “masking” (遮蔽).A headache specialist once said, “Masking symptoms is not the best way of treatment.” He compared taking a pain-killer for a headache before a cause is known with taking iron pills for anemia(贫血症) while bleeding continues undiscovered.He added, “Sometimes it is wiser to stand still than to advance in darkness.”
A headache is important also because it affects normal, happy living.The employee with a headache does less work.In a flash of temper he may upset his fellow workers or customers, causing a direct or indirect loss to his organization.The mother with a headache suffers and disturbs the family.She upsets her husband and children.

(答案→)C 解析：本文主要讲述的是头痛病的概念和症状，以及头痛病对人的影响。【小题1】C 细节题。根据文章第3段第二句What most people mean by headache is a pain which lasts several minutes or hours.可知C正确。【小题2】B 推理题。根据本句He compared taking a pain-killer for a headache before a cause is known with taking iron pills for anemia(贫血症) while bleeding continues undiscovered.He added, “Sometimes it is wiser to stand still than to advance in darkness.”可知有些人使用止痛药来治疗头痛，事实证明这样的做法是不够明智的，明智的做法是忍着，不去治疗。故B项正确。【小题3】A 推理题。本文主要讲述的是头痛的概念和症状，接下来要讲得应该就是如何对头痛病进行治疗。故啊正确。【小题4】B 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段和最后一段可知本文主要讲述的就是头痛病的概念和对人的影响。故B正确。

对的，就是这个意思
