26、Technology has become so advanced that the previously impossible seems to occur on a daily basis. And yet — we still have no cure for the common cold.
According to Peter Barlow, a scientist at Edinburgh Napier University in the UK, the main challenge lies in the many different types of cold viruses. There are at least 160 types. They changed so easily that they quickly become resistant to drugs, or learn to hide from our immune systems. In other words, a single cure isn’t likely to work on every type of cold.
However, researchers from Stanford University have found a possible answer. They discovered a protein that the viruses need. Without it, they can’t spread inside your body. To identify the gene(基因) which produces the specific protein needed by the viruses, researchers used a gene-editing technique to test all genes. These modified (改变的) cells were then exposed to a range of viruses, including ones causing the common cold. All the viruses were unable to replicate (复制) inside cells without a gene that produces that specific protein.
Then, they tested genetically modified mice, which were completely unable to produce the protein. The mice were able to live normal lives without the protein. “Lacking that gene protected the mice completely from viral infection,” associate professor Jan Carette, from Stanford, told the BBC. “These mice would always die, but they lived through and we saw a very strong reduction in copying viruses and very strong protection. We have identified a fantastic target that all cold viruses require and depend on. Take that away and the virus really has no chance. ”
Carette said the plan is to find a drug which can temporarily control the protein, instead of producing genetically modified humans.
【1】Which of the following can best describe common cold viruses?
A．Severe and deadly.
B．Mysterious and stubborn.
C．Diverse and changeable.
D．Challenging and oversized.
【2】How does the protein work?
A．Help viruses spread.
B．Reduce physical infection.
C．Fight against other viruses.
D．Strengthen the immune system.
【3】What can we learn about the genetically modified mice?
A．They caught cold easily.
B．Their health worsened.
C．They produced more protein.
D．They were able to survive,
【4】What is purpose of the research?
A．To control certain genes.
B．To conquer the common cold.
C．To test a new drug.
D．To cure genetically modified mice.
27、 Pets are an important part of our lives, staying with us and providing unconditional love. We find so much joy with them. 【1】. But some useful tips may help you get through the loss of a beloved pet.
【2】. The death of your pet may be a heavy blow to you. You may experience a range of feelings, from sadness to anger, guilt to despair for a long time. Our sadness is a proof to how much we love our pets. It’s important to give yourself as much time as you need to recover.
Talk to a sympathetic listener. 【3】, so it’s not surprising that many people see the loss of their pets as comparable to losing human friends or relatives. For many, talking to a sympathetic listener can help them accept their loss. Seek help from those who understand or have experienced your emotions if necessary.
Consider a ceremony. The love for your pets never has to end. They can live on in your heart and memory forever. Although you miss them deeply, it can be helpful to honour them and celebrate the wonderful time you spent together. Many people choose to hold some sort of ceremony. 【4】. You might have a simple and personal ceremony between family members or a bigger, more celebratory occasion that involves a wider circle of friends. For some of us, having a larger ceremony is a way to express how much a pet is a central part of daily life. 【5】.
A．Recover with Dr. Time’s help
B．Beat the heavy blow with confidence
C．That’s why we feel deep sorrow when a pet dies
D．But there is no one-size-fits-all response to death and loss
E．Pets are increasingly viewed as important family members
F．Pets, as everybody knows, help their owners get rid of loneliness
G．Making photo books of your pets can be another way of remembering them
28、 One day，a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school，found he had only one thin dime (十分硬币) left，and he was hungry.He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.However，he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door.Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water.She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk.He drank it slowly，and then asked，“How much do I owe you？” “You don't owe me anything，” she replied.“Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness.”He said，“Then I thank you from my heart.”

29、“If the world ends one day, these collections will bring hope of a new beginning to life on Earth,” said Li Pei, a staff member at the Germplasm Bank of Wild Species, or GBOWS, in Yunnan province.
Founded in 2007, GBOWS is a research and preservation facility for rare and endangered plants and animals. It is the largest in Asia in terms of species.
According to China Daily, GBOWS has preserved 85,046 seed types from 10,601 species and 60,262 biosamples of 2,203 wild animal species and domestic animal breeds.
“The number of seed accessions is close to that of the world’s biggest seed bank — the Millennium Seed Bank in the United Kingdom,” Li said.
With two in five plant species at risk of extinction, she said it is a race against time to protect the nation’s incredible plant life.
So how does the bank work? Scientists collect endangered and useful wild species and send them to the seed bank. For future study, collectors have to record details of the plant, including where it was found, its size and the number of individual plants in the habitat.
Once the seeds arrive at GBOWS, they’re dried and preserved in a room with 15 percent humidity. Next, they’re cleaned and separated from pieces. After that, X-rays confirm that the seeds are undamaged and no insects are hidden inside. The seeds are then frozen, stored in glass bottles and placed in huge freezers at -20℃ for long-term storage. Each container has a barcode that can be scanned to enable scientists to view information about the seeds inside.
The bank in Yunnan works with international partners on collecting backup (备份) samples, exchanges and research. It holds 2,176 sets of seeds from 45 countries and regions, with each set containing thousands of individual seeds.
“As China has rich and unique biological resources, we aim to further enhance our collections and conduct deeper research, in expectation of contributing more to biodiversity conservation, not only in China but the world,” Li Pei said.
【1】What does the underlined word “extinction” mean in Paragraph 4?
A．Disappearance.
B．Collection.
C．Movement.
D．Development.
【2】How does GBOWS work for the seeds?
A．The seeds are kept in containers made of plastic.
B．The seeds are put under very hot and wet condition.
C．The seeds are dried before being cleaned and separated.
D．The seeds are confirmed just by human eyes to ensure their healthy condition.
【3】Which of the following statements is an accurate description of GBOWS?
A．2176 seeds are held in it.
B．All the seeds held in it are from China.
C．Only endangered wild species are collected in it.
D．Its number of seeds is close to the Millennium Seed Bank’s.
【4】According to the passage, what is Li Pei’s attitude about GBOWS?
A．Indifferent.
B．Disappointed.
C．Hopeful.
D．Critical.
30、Dogs have facial expressions to use on humans
Scientists have discovered that dogs produce more facial movement when a human is paying attention to them—including making their eyes appear bigger—than when they _________(ignore).
This new research goes _________ the belief that animal facial expressions are largely unconscious reflections of internal feelings—rather than a way to communicate.
“Facial expression is often seen as _______ driven by emotion, instead of something that animals can change _______(depend) on their circumstances,” said Bridget Waller, professor of evolutionary psychology at the University of Portsmouth, and an author of the study.
The research joins a number of studies exploring the extraordinary relationship between humans and their dogs, including some research that suggests that dogs understand not only words spoken by humans—but also the tone of voice.
A study published _________ Scientific Reports describes the use of a video camera to record the facial movement of 24 dogs. In this experiment, humans _________ faced the animals, or faced away, and presented the dog with tasty food, or did not.
The recordings were then examined by the team frame by frame _______ (determine) changes in the facial muscles of the dogs. The results reveal that the dogs produced far more facial expressions when the humans were facing them, _________ when they turned away.
“The research tells us that their facial expressions are probably responsive to humans—not just to other dogs,” said Waller. He also said that it told us something about how domestication had shaped dogs, and _______ it had changed them so that they __________ be more communicative with humans.
