22、Scientists have transfused lab-made red blood cells into a human volunteer in a world-first trial that experts say has major potential for people with hard-to-match blood types or conditions such as sickle cell (镰状细胞) disease. The research could someday mean an end to long searches for compatible (兼容的) donors or dangerous transfusion reactions.

The experimental transfusion was done at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, England, as part of a collaborative (合作的) effort among UK scientists to understand how lab-made blood transfusions could work.

The scientists took whole blood from donors in a UK database and separated out the stem cells. These are the body’s raw materials — the cells from which all specialized cells, like a red blood cell, can generate. The researchers grew red blood cells from those stem cells and transfused them into two healthy volunteers. The transfusions involved only a tiny amount of blood: the equivalent of one or two teaspoons. A standard blood transfusion would involve many hundred times that amount. This stage of the trial involves two mini transfusions at least four months apart, one with a standard donation of red cells and the other with lab-made cells from the same donor.

The researchers are closely monitoring the volunteers to determine whether the process was safe. They say there have been with “no side effects” so far. They’re also watching how long the lab-grown cells last compared with an infusion (灌输) of standard red blood cells. Red blood cells typically last about 120 days, but a transfusion from a standard donation contains cells that are a variety of ages because the bone marrow (骨髓) continuously makes these cells.

Previous tests have shown that manufactured cells function like normal cells and that these lab-made cells are likely to survive longer overall while in circulation. This study will determine for the first time whether that’s true. Further trials will be necessary to determine whether there could be a clinical use of this lab-grown product.

The research could eventually make a difference to people with sickle cell disease, those who develop antibodies (抗体) against most donor blood types, or those with genetic disorders in which their body can’t make red blood cells or the blood cells they make don’t work well.

【1】What function is expected of the lab-made red blood cells transfusion?

A．It may make it easier to get blood donors.

B．It may grow red blood cells from the stem cells.

C．It may end the dangerous transfusion reactions.

D．It may develop antibodies against many donor blood types.

【2】What can be inferred about the experimental procedure?

A．It is widely considered not safe despite many experiments.

B．The two mini transfusions shouldn’t be carried out closely together.

C．The researchers transfused stem cells into volunteers to monitor them.

D．A standard blood transfusion only need to involve a tiny amount of blood.

【3】Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A．The process of lab-made blood transfusions proves safe so far.

B．Lab-made cells survive longer overall than normal cells in circulation.

C．There are two mini transfusions with lab-made cells in the experiment.

D．The stem cells, as the body’s raw materials, can’t produce red1 blood cells.

【4】What’s the passage mainly about?

A．A small amount of blood can make a difference.

B．Lab-made cells outweigh normal cells in a transfusion.

C．Lab-made cells can contribute to blood-related diseases.

D．Lab-made cell transfusions can replace normal blood donations.

23、   Be careful of those solid gold pieces of advice. The friend who advises you to, say, stay in your relationship or leave your job may well be looking out for you; but she' s inescapably looking out for herself, too, whether she realises it or not.

Moreover, research suggests that people will generally advise you to act more cautiously than they would act themselves in a similar situation — perhaps because they don’t want to feel guilty if you take a daring leap and fall flat on your face.

There's a happy side to this, though, for parents, teachers, managers and anyone else who finds themselves in the position of needing to motivate others: far better than giving them advice is to give them the opportunity to give advice. A new study found that American middle-school pupils were much more enthusiastic about doing their homework after giving advice on the topic to younger children, as compared with after receiving advice from teachers. This motivational effect lasted weeks, and was also observed among adults who were attempting to lose weight, save money, control their temper or find a job. This result isn’t all that surprising, 1 suppose, when you consider how happy it feels to be invited to give advice. Faced with a challenge, we tend to assume we need to seek advice in order to obtain more knowledge about how to give advice; yet the truth, very often, is that we know exactly what we need to do — we just lack the confidence to do it.

This, by the way, is another good reason to keep a journal: you can use it to advise yourself. Your friends may have limited patience with your habit of lecturing them on their lives in order to feel better about your own, but a leather-effect notebook never complains.

Finally, this is a reminder that there are few bigger compliments (恭维) you can pay another person than to ask for their advice. Benjamin Franklin famously observed that to flatter (奉承) someone, it’s better to ask for a favour than to perform one: the favour-doer will come to think of you as the likable sort for whom they do favours.

【1】Why should you be careful of those solid gold pieces of advice?

A.They may be practical.

B.They may be rewarding.

C.They may be demanding.

D.They may be conservative.

【2】The examples in Paragraph 3 suggest that people giving advice   .

A.become more motivated to act

B.should turn to others for advice

C.are superior to the professionals

D.usually lack relevant knowledge

【3】What does the author want to convey by mentioning Benjamin Franklin?

A.Keeping a journal is a good habit.

B.You should be polite to the favour-doers.

C.You should be patient with your listeners.

D.Asking for a favour pleases the favour-doers.

24、   If you have ever had a cat, or have watched one of the many funny cat videos online, you’ll know that cats have a mind of their own. A lot of the things they do are hard to understand—they like to climb up tall furniture, fit themselves in small spaces and attack small objects for no reason at all.

Now scientists have managed to figure out what exactly is going on in the brains of our little friends. According to Tony Buffington, a professor at Ohio State University in the US, cats’ strange behavior largely comes from their way of life back in the wild. “Cats today still have many of the same instincts that allowed them to live in the wild for millions of years.” he said in a TED Talk. “To them, our homes are their jungles.”

In the wild, cats are hunters. Their bodies and great balancing abilities allow them to climb to high spots to better look at the environment. Even though they don’t have to hunt any more in human houses, they still keep the old habit of viewing the living room from, for example, the top of the refrigerator.

Cats’ hunting instinct is also what makes them attack small things like keys and USB drives. In the wild, they hunt whatever they can get, and most of the animals they kill are small.

However, cats can also be prey. This explains why they like to stay in small spaces like drawers or washing machines— they are hiding, or they think they are hiding, from more dangerous animals. This is also why cats prefer a clean box: a smelly one could easily show enemies where they are.

Knowing how cats’ minds work is not only useful for better understanding them. It may also help cats’ owners to better meet cats’ needs. For example, owners could try to make climbing easier for cats by moving their furniture around. They could also use “food puzzles” to make eating feel more like hunting instead of just giving food to the cats.

【1】According to Tony Buffington, ________.

A．cats’ strange behavior is difficult for humans to understand

B．cats are more used to living in the wild than in humans’ homes

C．cats’ instincts are as helpful to them today as they were millions of year ago

D．cats behave strangely mainly because they still have some instincts in the wild

【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

A．Cats like to climb up high because they want to hide from dangerous animals.

B．Cats attack keys and USB drives because they have a habit of hunting small animals.

C．Cats enjoy staying in small spaces because they usually live in small caves in the wild.

D．Cats’ preference for a clean litter box has something to do with their hunting habits.

【3】The underlined word “prey” in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.

A．an animal that is hunted

B．an animal that is too shy

C．an animal that keeps itself clean

D．an animal that likes hiding games

【4】This article is mainly written to ________.

A．describe cats’ past wild experience to readers

B．explore the reasons for cats’ strange behavior

C．tell cat owners how to make life easier for cats

D．compare cats’ behavior in human homes with that in the wild
