3、f meddling with cholesterol.A：1. The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels. But many researchers remain confident that drugs to boost levels of good cholesterol are still one of the most promising means to com

4、bat spiralling heart disease.B：2. Drug company Pfizer announced on 2 December that it was cancelling all clinical trials of torcetrapib, a drug designed to raise heart-protective high-density lipoproteins (HDLs). In a trial of 15000 patients, a safety board found that more people died or suffered ca

5、rdiovascular problems after taking the drug plus a cholesterol-lowering statin than those in a control group who took the statin alone.C：3. The news came as a kick in the teeth to many cardiologists because earlier tests in animals and people suggested it would lower rates of cardiovascular disease.

Washing, brushing and varnishing fossils all standard conservation treatments used by many fossil hunters and museum curators alike vastly reduces the chances of recovering ancient DN2. Instead, excava

9、tors should be handling at least some of their bounty with gloves, and freezing samples as they are found, dirt and all, concludes a paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences today. 3. Although many palaeontologists know anecdotally that this is the best way to up the odds of extr

10、acting good DNA, Eva-Maria Geigl of the Jacques Monod Institute in Paris, France, and her colleagues have now shown just how important conservation practices can be. This information, they say, needs to be hammered home among the people who are actually out in the field digging up bones. 4. Geigl an

11、d her colleagues looked at 3,200-year-old fossil bones belonging to a single individual of an extinct cattle species, called an aurochs. The fossilA：Warm and wet13. Geigl herself believes that, with cooperation between bench and field researchers, preserving fossils properly could open up avenues of

12、 discovery that have long been assumed closed. 14. Much human cultural development took place in temperate regions. DNA does not survive well in warm environments in the first place, and can vanish when fossils are washed and treated. For this reason, Geigl says, most ancient DNA studies have been d

13、one on permafrost samples, such as the woolly mammoth, or on remains sheltered from the elements in cold caves including cave bear and Neanderthal fossils. 15. Better conservation methods, and a focus on fresh fossils, could boost DNA extraction from more delicate specimens, says Geigl. And that cou

A TRIP to the supermarket may not seem like an exercise in psychological warfarebut it is. Shopkeepers know that fi

18、lling a store with the aroma of freshly baked bread makes people feel hungry and persuades them to buy more food than they had intended. Stocking the most expensive products at eye level makes them sell faster than cheaper but less visible competitors. Now researchers are investigating how “swarm in

19、telligence” (that is, how ants, bees or any social animal, including humans, behave in a crowd) can be used to influence what people buy.B：2. At a recent conference on the simulation of adaptive behaviour in Rome, Zeeshan-ul-hassan Usmani, a computer scientist from the Florida Institute of Technolog

20、y, described a new way to increase impulse buying using this phenomenon. Supermarkets already encourage shoppers to buy things they did not realise they wanted: for instance, by placing everyday items such as milk and eggs at the back of the store, forcing shoppers to walk past other tempting16.Rogu

21、e theory of smell gets a boostA：1. A controversial theory of how we smell, which claims that our fine sense of odour depends on quantum mechanics, has been given the thumbs up by a team of physicists.B：2. Calculations by researchers at University College London (UCL) show that the idea that we smell

22、 odour molecules by sensing their molecular vibrations makes sense in terms of the physics involved.C：3. Thats still some way from proving that the theory, proposed in the mid-1990s by biophysicist Luca Turin, is correct. But it should make other scientists take the idea more seriously.D：4. This is

23、a big step forward, says Turin, who has now set up his own perfume company Flexitral in Virginia. He says that since he published his theory, it has been ignored rather than criticized.E：5. Most scientists have assumed that our sense of smell depends on receptors in the nose detecting the shape of i
