20、nts)Text 1For centuries, medical pioneers have refined a variety of methods and medicines to treat sickness, injury, anddisability, enabling people to live longer and healthier lives.“A salamander (a small lizard-like animal) can grow back its leg. Why can*t a human do the same?” asked Peruvian-born

21、 surgeon Dr. Anthony Atala in a recent interview. The question, a reference to work aiming to grow new limbs for wounded soldiers, captures the inventive spirit of regenerative medicine. This innovative field seeks to provide patients with replacement body parts.These parts are not made of steel; th

22、ey are the real things living cells, tissue, and even organs.Regenerative medicine is still mostly experimental, with clinical applications limited to procedures such as growing sheets of skin on burns and wounds. One of its most significant advances took place in 1999, when a research group at Nort

23、hCarolinas Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine conducted a successful organ replacement with a laboratory-grown bladder. Since then, the team, led by Dr. Atala, has continued to generate a variety of other tissues and organsfrom kidneys toThe field of regenerative medicine builds on work

24、 conducted in the early twentieth century with the first successful transplants of donated human soft tissue and bone. However, donor organs are not always the best option. First of all, they are in short supply, and many people die while waiting for an available organ; in the United States alone, m

25、ore than 100,000 people are waiting for organ transplants. Secondly, a patients body may ultimately reject the transplanted donor organ. An advantage of regenerative medicine is that the tissues are grown from a patients own cells and will not be rejected by the bodys immune system.Today, several la

26、bs are working to create bioartificial body parts. Scientists at Columbia and Yale Universities have grown a jawbone and a lung. At the University of Minnesota, Doris Taylor has created a beating bioartificial rat heart. Dr. Atalas medical team has reported long-term success with bioengineered bladd

27、ers implanted into young patients with spina bifida (a birth defect that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord). And at the University of Michigan, H. David Humes has created an artificial kidney.So far, the kidney procedure has only been used successfully with sheep, but there is h

28、ope that one day similar kidney will be implantable in a human patient. The continuing research of scientists such as these may eventually make donor organs unnecessary and, as a result, significantly increase individuals9 chances of survival.1、In the latest field of regenerative medicine, what are

29、replacement parts made of?A.Donated cells, tissues and organs.B.Rejected cells, tissues and organs.C.Cells, tissuesand organs of ones own.D.Cells, tissuesand organs made of steel.2、What have scientists experimented successfully on for a bioartificial kidney?A.PatientsB.RatsC.SheepD.Soldiers3、Why is

31、s attitude towards regenerative medicine?A. Positive.B. Negative.C. Doubtful.D. Reserved.Text 2We human beings need to stay in touch with nature-many studies show how much better people feel when in sight of trees. Yet even more importantly, nature itself needs us to stay in touch. Many politicians

32、and scientists have told us that we can conquer” nature, but in reality nature will always be beyond our control-we do have the power to destroy it. The fate of all the animals and their habitats depends largely on our attitude towards them. Whether or not we ourselves survive depends on how well we

33、 look after the rest. For our sake as well as theirs, we need to consider it seriously.But how can we care at all if we spend our lives indoors? Born in South London at the end of the Second World War, at least I knew what a sparrow was (theyre rare now) and you couldn*t put a spade into our tiny ga

34、rden without cutting a worm in half. We knew, too, that milk comes from cows and that old men can grow amazing carrots on poor land. Ultra-urban （极度 城市化）as we may have been, at least we were in touch.Now we have a generation who frankly are not in touch. So how can they care if the countryside is so

35、ld off to the highest bidders, and used to park helicopters, and our crops come free from Monsanto and our livestock live in factories? They will know no other way.But if we settle for the ultra-urban life, if we allow all wilderness to be compromised and hand our farming over to industrial chemists

36、 then, quite simply, the world will fall apartas it has been doing already. We have to rethink what agriculture is really for, and why conservation matters to us, as well as to other creatures. Changes of strategies begin with attitude and attitude begins with awareness.1、Which of the following opin

37、ions will the author be for?A. Technology will help humans control nature completely.B. Conquering nature is the policy of human society.C. Humans have to find a way to live in harmony with nature.D. We will lose control of nature with the development of society.2、 The second paragraph is intended t

39、high profits can be made by selling city landC. they are cut off from natureD. livestock living in factories are tastier4 From the passage we can guess that Monsanto is likely to beA. a chemical fertilizer plantB a scientist good at farmingC. a construction corporationD. a big agricultural company5、

40、Towards the end of the passage, the author reminds us toA. move to the countrysideB. reflect on our past behaviorsC. leave space for wild animalsD. turn farms into big factoriesText 3This year marks the 170th anniversary of Paul Gauguins birth. He lived for just 54 years but he packed his brief life

41、 with activity.The French painter spent his early childhood in Peru before returning to France. As an adult, he continued to travel a lot. Most famously, he spent much of the last decade of his life in Tahiti, an island in southern Pacific Ocean. Indeed, Gauguin is best known for his colorful painti

42、ngs of Tahitians and their culture.The restlessness of this great painter has been normal among modern artists since the middle of the 19th century. Theyre never satisfied for long with a certain style or way of life. Once something becomes conventional, its turned down.The artistic culture that Gau

43、guin developed from was that of Impressionism （E|J 象派）.Painters like Claude Monet had wanted to paint how they saw the world, not how their teachers taught them it should be seen. Gauguin, and similar artists like his friend Vincent van Gogh, moved even further away from “respectable“ art than the I

44、mpressionists. For them, it was not simply a matter of seeing the world differently, but feeling and thinking about it differently, too.Gauguin saw, felt and thought differently from most members of European society. He thought that European culture was too fancy and not spontaneous. This is why he

45、turned to the traditions of other parts of the world, like Africa, and, eventually, Tahiti. Artists like Gauguin used the word primitive“ for these cultures, but not as a negative term. For him, Europe, in becoming modem, industrial and scientific, seemed less natural than other parts of the world.I

46、n truth, Gauguins paintings may be unconventional but they are certainly not “primitive”. They are the work of a painter with great awareness of what he was doing. It was this awareness that made him such an important painter for those that came after, in the 20th century. When we look closely at th

47、e works of Gauguin we begin to understand Pablo Picasso, and especially Henri Matisse, a little better.1、What can we infer about Gauguins life?A , He had an unhappy childhood.B. He lived most of his life in Peru.C. He enjoyed painting in Tahiti.D. He preferred a traditional life style.2、Whats the ma

48、in purpose of Paragraph 4?A. To explain why Gauguins works were popular.B. To point out where Gauguins inspiration came from.C. To show Gauguins different understanding of painting.D. To compare Gauguins painting style with Vincent van Goghs.3、Which of the following best explains spontaneous“ underlined in Paragraph 5?A. Natural.B. Modern.C. Industrial.D. Scientific.4、The author mentions Picasso and Matisse in the last paragraph to show.
