19、the selfless stem cell donor who came to her rescue.Monica, 67, said: “I couldnt bear the thought that other families standing by a hospital bed, being told the transplant couldnt go ahead because the stem cells couldnt get through.”Helen was diagnosed (诊断) with Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2010.

27、ering stem cells.D. A successful stem cell transplant.CTo communicate with others, we, the people, have different languages. But what about other animals and plants? Well, according to a scientist, plants talk to each other using language.Jim Westwood, a Virginia Tech scientist, made this discovery
28、by looking at the interactions between a parasitic (寄生的) plant called a dodder and two types of host plants, a small flowering plant and a tomato plant. Dodders use a rootlike part to enter their host plants and feed on their nutrients.In previous studies, Westwood had discovered that during this in
29、teraction, RNA molecules (分子), which play a crucial role in translating information passed down from DNA, were being passed between the two species.And recently, Westwood looked into the possibility that a special type of RNA molecules, mRNA or Messenger RNA, were also being exchanged between the pa
30、rasitic and host plants, mRNA molecules send messages within cells, instructing them on which actions to take and when. Through this exchange, the parasitic plant may be instructing its host to lower its defenses so that the parasitic plant can more easily attack it.Besides giving us a much deeper i
31、nsight into the behaviour of plants, this information could help scientists come up with better solutions to fight the parasitic weeds that threaten food crops. Parasitic plants are serious problems for crops that help feed some of the poorest regions in Africa and elsewhere. In addition, it has exc
32、iting implications for the design of novel control strategies based on interrupting the mRNA information that the parasite (寄生虫) uses to reprogram the host.“The beauty of this discovery is that this mRNA could be the Achilles heel for parasites,” Westwood said. “This is all really exciting because t
33、here are so many potential implications surrounding this new information. Now that we have found that they are sharing all this information, the next question is, What exactly are they telling each other?.”8. Whats Westwoods new discovery?A. RNA can translate DNA information.B. Parasite plants can c

36、l.B. A weak point.C. An opportunity.D. An achievement.DThe space community is taking the orbital debris (碎片) threat increasingly seriously these days. Multiple satellite “mega-constellations (巨型星座)” are in the works, making space traffic management and space-junk removal more pressing issues than th
37、eyve ever been.For instance, SpaceX has already launched more than 1,700 satellites for its Starlink broadband constellation. The company ultimately wants to launch around 30,000Starlink satellites into orbit. One Web has launched more than half of the satellites for its planned 648-member constella

This opening of the final frontier is generall
39、y a good thing, but it further highlights the need for responsible action when it comes to satellite operation. In 2019, for example, the Space Safety Coalition (SSC) laid out a set of proposed voluntary guidelines designed to control space junk over the coming years.One recommendation is that all s
40、atellites operating above 250 miles be equipped with propulsion(推进) systems, allowing them to get away from possible collisions (碰撞). The SSC also recommends operators who control satellites in low Earth orbit should include in their launch contracts a requirement that rocket upper stages should be
41、got rid of in the atmosphere shortly after liftoff.More active debris-fighting strategies could also be part of the solution. Removing just a handful of rocket bodies or dead satellites every year could help us keep our space-junk problem under control, according to some studies. And researchers aro
42、und the world are developing and testing ways to do just that, using nets, harpoons(鱼叉) and other methods.The space-junk issue is a global one, so governments around the world should have conversations about how to deal with it. Lets hope the talks, the decisions and the tech end up outpacing the pr
