10、中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AWhen somebody gets sick or is hurt in an accident, there are several different ways that doctors can try to help them. One of these is to give medicine that fights the sickness or helps the sick persons body to fight it. However, if some parts of a body are very sick or damaged
11、, then doctors might need to remove them. Another way doctors can help is to grow new tissue to replace what is sick or damaged. This is called regenerative medicine (再生医学). Regenerative medicine sounds like something from a science fiction movie but it is not a new idea. Inside our bones, we have s
12、omething called marrow, which makes our blood and keeps us healthy. Doctors have been giving sick people the bone marrow from other healthy people for the last 30 or 40 years, and this is a kind of regenerative medicine.Newer developments in regenerative medicine include growing new skin in a labora
13、tory and using it to help people who have been hurt in fires or accidents. Another example of regenerative medicine is a technique developed from studying frogs and mice. When cells are old, like in adults, they cant change what they do in our bodies. For example, a skin cell cant change into an eye
14、 cell. But when cells are very young, they can become any cell type. These young cells are called stem cells, and doctors can use them to grow any type of tissue, such as skin, heart or eye. John Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka won the 2012 Nobel Prize for their studies in this area.Professor Fiona Watt,
15、 from the Centre for Regenerative Medicine at Kings College London, believes that regenerative medicine is so exciting because many different kinds of experts need to work together. New bones may be printed by expert 3D printers, who need to work closely with university scientists and the surgeons w
16、ho do the operations in hospitals. We cannot yet grow new arms or legs for people, but the science fiction dream of regenerative medicine may be closer than we think. Perhaps in the future, doctors will be able to grow whole new bodies for us.21. Why is marrow in bones very important in regenerative
17、 medicine?A. It can grow into new skin for those who have been hurt in fires.B. It can be used to grow new tissue.C. It makes blood for our body.D. It has been used for 40 years.22. Which of the following is right according to this passage?A. Regenerative medicine is a new science in medicine.B. Fio
18、na Watt and Shinya Yamanaka won the 2012 Nobel Prize for medicine.C. Stem cells, very young cells, can be used to grow any type of tissue.D. Doctors and scientists now cooperate to grow new skin for frogs and mice.23. Whats the writers attitude to the development in regenerative medicine?A. Pessimis
19、tic. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Subjective.BGorilla Study Reveals New ConnectionHumans and gorillas (大猩猩) shared evolution for 23 million years. Their paths separated only six million years ago. Research on how gorillas communicate can help us understand human language development. Understanding
20、 how the brain works helps us see a connection between language development and non-verbal signs. These signs or movements include things like the way we move our hands or bodies or the different expressions our faces have in different social situations. A new study on gorillas revealed that right-h
21、andedness- preferring to use the right hand instead of the left hand for most physical activities-may have a connection with communication.Two cameras were used to film all of one apes movements. One of the first results was that gorillas use their right hands more when they are doing actions with t
22、heir heads or mouths at the same time. This shows that there is a connection between how our brains work and the reason we use one side of our body more than the other. In addition, we can use the results of the study and our knowledge about brains to help us understand more about how language first
23、 developed in humans.Dr Forrester, who did the study, says the results can be useful in other ways, such as understanding language development in children. For example, some children have a serious illness called “autism” which can stop them communicating normally with people. It might be possible t
24、o use the same study method to find out which children have this illness when they are very young. Doctors will then be able to start treatment early. 24. When did the evolution of gorillas and humans separate?A. More than 5 million years ago. B. 7 million years ago.C. 23 million. D. Its not known.2
25、5. Right-handedness in apes may have a connection with A. intelligence. B. communication. C. social success. D. convenience.26.

27、microbiology, after her father sold his land to pay for some of his daughters tuition to help her to be part of Indias growing middle class.Verma finished high school at 7 and earned an undergraduate degree at age 13 with the encouragement of her uneducated and poor parents. “They allowed me to do w
28、hat I wanted to do,” Verma said, “I hope that other parents dont make their children accept their choices.”Sushma lives with her family in a crowded single-room apartment in Lucknow. Their only income is her fathers daily wage of up to 200 rupees (less than $ 3. 50) for laboring on construction site
29、s. Their most precious possessions include a study table and a second-hand computer. It is not a great atmosphere for studying, she admitted. But having no television and little else at home has advantages, she said. “There is nothing to do but study.”Her first choice was to become a doctor, but she
30、 cannot take the test to qualify for medical school until she is 18. “So I chose the masters of science and then I will do a doctors degree,” she said.In another family, Sushma might not have been able to receive higher education. Millions of Indian children are still not enrolled in grade school, a
31、nd many of them are girls whose parents choose to hold them back in favour of advancing their sons. Some from conservative (守旧的) village cultures are expected only to get married. “The girl is an inspiration for students who are born with everything”, said Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak of Sulabh International, who decided to help after seeing a local television program on Sushma. She is also receiving financial aid from well-wishing civilians and other charities.28. Which word can best describe Sushma Vermas father?A. Strict. B. Educated. C. Understanding. D.
