Research has shown that j
13、ust three rows of trees near poultry houses can reduce the release of dust and ammonia(氨水)They can also reduce the strong smells of ammonia gas.The trees seize dust, ammonia and smell in their leaves. They also provide shade from the sun, so they reduce cooling costs in summer. And they act as a win
14、dbreak, so they reduce heating costs in winter. Trees can also improve water quality around farms by removing pollutants from soil and groundwater.Traditionally the farms used windows to provide fresh air in the chicken houses. Farmers rarely planted trees or tall crops around the buildings, so ther
15、e would be no barrier to the airflow. But then farms began to use new airing systems. Instead of windows, the new systems used tunnel fans to circulate air. The fans directed airflow from the poultry houses toward the homes of neighbors. Researchers led by George Malone at the University of Delaware
16、 began dealing with the problem in 2000. They found that over a period of six years, planting three rows of trees reduced total dust and ammonia by more than half. And they found that smells were reduced by eighteen percent.The scientists reported their findings in 2008 at a meeting of the American
17、Chemical Society. For the first row nearest the fans, they generally suggested trees that lose their leaves in the fall or trees with waxy leaf surfaces. They suggested evergreen trees for the other two rows. Some trees work better than others. And what works in one area of the country may not work
18、as well in others. Farmers may think trees will take too long to grow and be effective. But some trees can grow quickly. At least onethird of the Delmarva farms have planted trees, technically known as vegetative environmental buffers(缓冲). The idea offers a way to cut pollution, save money and energ
19、y, and make the neighbors happy.31The trees around the poultry farms can help do all the following EXCEPT _.Astopping the strong smells from releasing from poultryBpurifying the quality of air and water around the farmCincreasing barrier to reduce the airflow with outsideDmaking the neighbour feel m
20、ore comfortable32What do the farmers usually do to provide fresh air for their poultry?AThey planted a lot of trees around their farms. BThey dug a lot of tunnels in their poultry houses.CThey planted a great many tall crops around the farms.DThey built windows and tunnel fans in the poultry houses.

23、entists in the United States and other countries have been working to explain the mysterious disappearances of bees. Now, a new study suggests that several viruses may act together. Scientists from the University of Illinois and the United States Department of Agriculture did the study. The team com
24、pared bees from affected colonies with those from healthy colonies. They were looking for differences in gene expression in the guts(肠) of the bees.The scientists found that the affected bees had a number of viruses from a group called picornalike viruses. The infections observed in the bees include
25、d Israeli acute paralysis(瘫痪) virus and deformed wing virus.Tiny insects likely play a big part in spreading the viruses. Varroa mites have been causing serious problems in bee colonies in the United States since the late 1980s. These mites carry picornalike viruses. The viruses appear to harm the b
26、ees ability to use their genetic material to produce proteins needed to fight infections. Researcher Reed Johnson, now at the University of NebraskaLincoln, says the study suggests that the damaged proteins are unable to respond effectively when attacked. University of Illinois Professor May Berenba
27、um says it appears that bees could deal with one or two viruses at the same time, but not three or four. She says the picornalike viruses “hijack” the ribosome(核糖体) in cells. Ribosomes are structures in which proteins are made. As a result the ribosome produces only viral proteins. The professor say
28、s ribosome is central to the survival of any organism. If it is compromised, then the bees could not defend themselves against pesticides or fungal infections or bacteria or poor nutrition.35The scientists working on the colony of bees in order to_.Aguide the beekeepers to keep bees wellBdevelop a n

31、al English Health Report.Leprosy(麻疯病)also called Hansens diseaseis a bacterial disease that causes skin wounds and nerve damage. The disease can severely disfigure victims and cause death. Untreated patients can spread the bacteria from their nose and mouth through the air to people who are near the
32、m a lot. But doctors have been able to treat leprosy since the 1940s. Today they use a combination of three drugs. Experts say after the first treatment, patients can no longer infect others. At the start of this year there were two hundred thirteen thousand cases of leprosy reported in one hundred
33、twentyone countries. The World Health Organization says there were almost two hundred fifty thousand new cases last year. But the drug combination can cure the disease within six to twelve months. The number of new cases has been falling in many countries. But there are places where leprosy is still
34、 spreading quickly. These include areas of Angola, Brazil, Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo and India. Other areas are in Madagascar, Mozambique, Nepal and Tanzania. Leprosy is an ancient disease. Its victims have been highly stigmatized(非难)often blamed for their condition
35、and made to feel unclean. In India, leprosy has traditionally been considered a punishment for something bad done in a former life. Other cultures have considered it a sign of evil.James Staples teaches at Brunel University in Britain. He tells us that modern knowledge about leprosy does not necessa
36、rily reduce the stigma(污名). Public health campaigns spread the message that leprosy is curable and not highly infectious. Yet he says this message is often more scary for people than the idea that leprosy is some sort of spiritual punishment. That explanation may not do much for the patients place i

38、gn41From the passage we can infer _.Aleprosy cant be controlled once infectedBleprosy spreads very fast and widelyCleprosy often caused by the habit of being uncleanDThe World Health Organization has much attention to this diseaseDReproductive cloning is expensive and highly inefficient. More than 9
39、0% of cloning attempts fail to produce practicable young. More than 100 nuclear transfer procedures could be required to produce one practicable clone. In addition to low success rates, cloned animals tend to have more compromised immune(免疫的) function and higher rates of infection, tumor growth, and
40、 other disorders. Japanese studies have shown that cloned mice live in poor health and die early. About a third of the cloned calves born alive have died young, and many of them were abnormally large. Many cloned animals have not lived long enough to generate good data about how clones age. Appearin
41、g healthy at a young age unfortunately is not a good indicator of longterm survival. Clones have been known to die mysteriously. For example, Australias first cloned sheep appeared healthy and energetic on the day she died, and the results from her autopsy(验尸) failed to determine a cause of death.In
42、 2002, researchers at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, reported that the genomes(基因组) of cloned mice are compromised. In analyzing more than 10,000 liver and placenta(胎盘) cells of cloned mice, they discovered that about 4% of genes function abnormally. The
43、 abnormalities do not arise from mutations(转变) in the genes but from changes in the normal activation or expression of certain genes.Problems also may result from programming errors in the genetic material from a donor(捐献者) cell. When an embryo(胚胎) is created from the union of a sperm and an egg, th
44、e embryo(晶胚) receives copies of most genes from both parents. A process called “imprinting” chemically marks the DNA from the mother and father so that only one copy of a gene (either the maternal or paternal gene) is turned on. Defects in the genetic imprint of DNA from a single donor cell may lead
45、 to some of the developmental abnormalities of cloned embryos.42Which of the following is the advantage of reproductive cloning?Aexpensive costBinefficient resultClow success rates Dmedical research43Many cloned animals_.Alived not long enoughBwere born unhealthyCdied of a certain deseaseDprovided d
46、ata for research44The reason why the cloned animals are unhealthy is probably caused by the _.Aunhealthy organs Bdonors unhealthy cellCincomplete change Dabnormal genes45From the last paragraph we can infer _.Aa persons genes cant changeBcloning can cause genes development abnormallyCcloning people
47、may have many risksDcloning people is a good way for healthECancer sufferers could be treated with immune cells(免疫细胞)from donors resistant to the disease.US scientists say they have been given the permission by the authorities to test experimental treatment on humans.Zheng Cui and his colleagues at
48、Wake Forest University of Medicine in WinstonSalem,North Carolina,have received permission from the Food and Drug Administration to screen people for their ability to avoid cancer.Immune cells from the best cancer fighters will be given to cancer patients,after being matched for the blood type,the s
49、cientists said.The scientists have discovered that a much larger population of immune cells called granulocytes(粒性白细胞)can also kill cancer and they have shown that immune cells from some people may effectively fight cancer in others.The researchers took blood samples from more than 100 people and mi
50、xed their granulocytes with cervical cancer cells.Granulocytes from one person killed around 97 percent of cancer cells within 24 hours.However,only around 2 percent of cancer cells were killed by those from another healthy individual.Last year,however,the scientists successfully treated a range of
51、different cancers in mice by injecting them with granulocytes from a group of mice that are completely resistant to cancer.“Our preclinical tests have been successful.If this is half as effective in humans as it is in mice it could be that half of patients could be cured or at least given one to two
52、 years extra of highquality life,”Cui was quoted as saying.Everyone has some ability to fight cancer through immune cells called NK cells,which can identify and kill tumors(肿瘤)although the extent of theses cells influence is not known.Cells ability to kill cancer appeared to be lower in blood sample
53、s taken from people over the age of 50 and even lower in people with cancer.It also fell when people were under stress and during winter,according to the scientists.46What do we know from the passage?AGranulocytes from one person may be used to fight cancer in others.BImmune cells from people resist
54、ant to cancer can be given to any cancer patients.CA lot of cancer sufferers have been successfully cured with the help of immune cells.DAs long as cancer patients have the same blood type with cancer fighters,they can be cured.47In order to treat cancer sufferers,scientists should get immune cells
