21、Dynamic clearing
Dynamic clearing policy means stamping out an outbreak whenever it occurs and doing so in a relatively short time frame so it won’t lead to community spread. It does not mean the whole country has no infected cases. 【1】.
Putting people first
China’s dynamic clearing approach is characterized by its adherence to the principle of “people and life first”. The number of deaths attributable to the Omicron variant of the virus is more than those caused by the Delta variant. The WHO has rightly called the death toll “beyond tragic”.
With the largest senior population in the world, China has a sizable number of people with chronic underlying diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. 【2】.
A scientific approach
The dynamic clearing policy China has adopted is a scientific approach to fighting the novel coronavirus in line with its national conditions. It is wrong to consider the Omicron variant of the virus as no worse than the virus that causes the common flu.
It is irresponsible for some politicians to compare infections of the Omicron variant to a “flu”. 【3】. They do so out of a cynical need to cover up their failure in responding to it.
【4】
Dynamic clearance measures change in accordance with the situation. If an outbreak is detected early, health workers only need to quarantine and treat patients while keeping an eye on quarantined close contacts.
Under the policy, so long as there is no community spread it is acceptable for cases to exist in quarantine because they are temporarily isolated.
Supporting the global economy
The dynamic clearing policy has so far proved successful in striking a delicate balance between maintaining economic and social development and controlling the spread of the virus.
【5】, enabling it to resume its economic activities and keep transmission of the virus localized whenever a cluster of infections appears.
A.A timely strategy.
B.Changing the world.
C.It is not supported by any scientific evidence.
D.Here are some reasons to stick to dynamic clearing policy.
E.It is this policy that has made it possible for China to control the virus most rapidly.
F.This has enabled China to continue to serve as the bedrock of the global supply chain.
G.China’s public health system would face unbearable pressure from a nationwide outbreak.
22、 Gray wolves will no longer be protected under the Endangered Species Act in most of the US, federal officials announced this week.
“After more than 45 years as a listed species, the gray wolf has reached all conservation goals for recovery,” Interior Secretary David Bernhardt said.
This move was criticized by wildlife advocacy groups and environmentalists who decided to challenge the decision.
“Abolishing protections for gray wolves is irresponsible,” said Defenders of Wildlife President and CEO, Jamie Rappaport Clark. “Gray wolves occupy only a small part of their former range and need continued federal protection to fully recover. We will be taking the US Fish and Wildlife Service to court to defend this species.”
The new rule will officially publish next week, and go into effect 60 days after that. Then, states will assume control of gray wolves and accept for Mexican wolves, a subspecies that will remain protected under the Endangered Species Act.
Over the years, there has been a back-and-forth between conservation groups and the Fish and Wildlife Service over whether the gray wolf should be delisted (除名) as an endangered species. The last attempt was under the Obama administration, but was met with fierce opposition and was later withdrawn.
There was also a lot of opposition to the recent delisting of the gray wolf, with more than 837,000 comments noted online. According to the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), the organization submitted more than 1. 8 million comments opposing the rule.
While the federal government is removing protections, at least one state is hoping to add them. There is currently a question on the vote in Colorado about a gray wolf recovery program, which would reintroduce the animal in the state. The proposal would reintroduce and manage gray wolves by the end of 2023.
"Wolves remain absent from about 70% of currently suitable habitat in the lower 48 states, and this rule could have terrible consequences for their future,” Amanda Wight, Program Manager of Wildlife Protection said.
【1】How does Bernhardt feel about the gray wolf recovery?
A.Urgent.
B.Worrying.
C.Successful.
D.Impossible.
【2】What will environmentalists do to defend gray wolves?
A.Set more protection rules.
B.Call on environmentalists to donate.
C.Ask the government to set up more reserves.
D.Accuse the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
【3】What can we know about the delisting of the gray wolf?
A.The related rule has been in effect.
B.It has been under debate for years.
C.Many people vote to support it.
D.Colorado will be the first to carry it out.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.The Endangered Species Act is going into effect
B.The number of gray wolves is largely increasing
C.Gray wolves will lose Endangered Species Act protection
D.The Endangered Species Act will meet great change
23、In a touching story, a family was shocked to find that a stranger had secretly paid for more than half of their Christmas gifts.
When Ayers went to make a payment toward the $283 balance for her family’s Christmas gifts at Walmart, her money was refused. According to a Walmart employee, a woman had paid a part of Ayers’ bill after seeing her shopping in the store. The unknown woman also left Ayers a touching note, which left the mother of two in tears.
Ayers, whose sons are 11 and 3, says the stranger’s great generosity came at the perfect time for her family. Before the anonymous payment was made, Ayers had worried she would not be able to get her kids’ toys in time for Christmas.
Ayers is still looking for the woman who helped pay for their Christmas gifts for her kids. She took a picture of her receipt with the headline: This stranger paid 4 gifts for us. I wish I could thank her for helping give our kids a Merry Christmas!
For thousands of families like Ayers’, feeling this financial pressure around Christmastime is nothing new. These families who still have a roof over their heads and food on their tables often slip through the cracks — they can afford all the necessities, but the “extras” are harder to come by. Considering that Americans are estimated to spend $882 on Christmas gifts this year, it makes sense that a family with a few financial problems would have a hard time filling the stockings for their kids.
Realizing how common this Christmas problem really is makes Ayers’ story even more special. These random acts of kindness around the holidays, often from nameless strangers, can determine what a family’s Christmas looks like. Christmas may not be all about the material stuff, but for families, and especially for kids, it’s the little things that can make the biggest difference.
【1】Why did the Walmart employee refuse Ayers’ money?
A. She was too poor to afford it.
B. Her money was not enough.
C. Someone had paid for her.
D. The charismas gifts were free.
【2】Why is Ayers still looking for the nameless woman?
A. To say thanks to her.
B. To pay her money back.
C. To praise her online.
D. To make friends with her.
【3】 Which of the following best describes families like Ayers’?
A. They value Christmas very much.
B. They try their best to buy kids gifts.
C. They hate to spend Christmas.
D. They live from hand to mouth.
【4】What’s the author’s attitude towards the acts of kindness?
A. Praiseful. B. Helpful.
C. Troublesome. D. Useless.
24、 In a major medical breakthrough, Tel Aviv University researchers have “printed” the world's first 3D vascularized (有血管的)engineered heart using a patient’s own cells and biological materials. Their findings were published on April IS in a study in Advanced Science.
“This is the first time anyone anywhere has successfully engineered and printed an entire heart,” says Prof. Tal Dvir of Department of Materials Science and Engineering, who led the research for the study. “This heart is made from human cells and patient-specific biological materials. In our process, these materials serve as the bioinks, something made of sugars and proteins that can be used for 3D printing of complex tissue models,” Prof, Dvir says. “People managed to 3D print the structure of a heart in the past, but not with cells or with blood vessels (血管).Our results demonstrate the potential of our approach for engineering personalized tissue and organ replacement in the future.”
According to Prof. Dvir,the use of “ native ” patient-specific materials is important to successfully engineering tissues and organs.
The researchers are now planning on culturing the printed hearts in the lab and “ teaching them to behave” like hearts, Prof. Dvir says. They then plan to transplant the 3D-printed heart in animal models.
“We need to develop the printed heart further,” he concludes. “The cells need to form a pumping ability ; they can currently contract (收缩),but we need them to work together. Our hope is that we will succeed and prove our method’s efficacy (功效)and usefulness. “Maybe, in ten years, there will be organ printers in the finest hospitals around the world,and these procedures will be conducted routinely. ”
【1】What does Prof. Dvir think of an early 3D-printed heart?
A.It was highly practical. B.It was too expensive.
C.It was personalized. D.It was too simple.
【2】What do we know about the latest 3D-printed heart?
A.It can be cultured in the lab.
B.It can match a patient perfectly.
C.It has been transplanted in animals.
D.It has been widely used in hospitals,
【3】What is Prof, Dvir's attitude to the development of the printed heart?
A.Ambiguous. B.Positive.
C.Disapproving. D.Cautious.
【4】What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A.To explain the basic principle of 3D technology.
B.To introduce a breakthrough of medical research.
C.To doubt the medical value of a new invention.
D.To prove the effectiveness of the new technology.
