22、Empathy is the ability to share and understand the emotions of others. It is a construct of multiple components, each of which is associated with its own brain network. New research has found empathy may have a genetic component that affects personality, and cognition, psychiatric (relating to mental illness) conditions. The findings are highlighted in a new study led by researchers at the University of Cambridge, the University Paris Diderot and the Institute Pasteur, and 23andMe.

Published yesterday in Molecular Psychiatry, the first study found evidence that genes influence our ability to read and understand emotions in others. The team at the Autism Research Centre at the University of Cambridge analyzed data from 89,000 individuals worldwide, the majority of whom were 23andMe customers, who were willing to be researched.

Participants completed a “Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test”, in which they were shown photos of the area around the eyes and asked to identify one of two possible emotions. This assessed Theory of Mind and the ability to recognize and appreciate another person’s mental state. Researchers identified that women with certain genetic variants（变异）on chromosome（染色体）3 performed better, with higher levels of empathy. Interestingly, male performance on the test was not associated with a genetic variant. Overall, women consistently performed better than men, exhibiting higher levels of empathy.

The genetic variant associated with empathy in women is near the gene LRRN1(Leucine Rich Neuronal 1) on chromosome 3, which is highly active in an area of the human brain. Brain scans have indicated that this section of the brain may play a role in cognition empathy.

This is also the unprecedented study that relates measures of empathy with variation in the human genome（基因组）. Previous research that has attempted to assess the genetic associations of personality and psychological traits has sometimes been unreliable, due to their small sample size. 23andMe’s large data offering enables scientists to gain insight into the biology behind features such as empathy.

23andMe is committed to furthering such research and approximately 85 percent of customers agrees to allow their de-identified（去识别的）data to be made available for study. By allowing scientists access to its unique and powerful research resource engine, 23andMe helps open up genetics to qualified researchers, providing novel insights into individuals’ features, genetic diseases and a variety of other conditions.

【1】The research can help us have a better understanding of empathy which ________.

A. can assess personality and cognition.   B. can provide insights into features, and diseases.

C. can be shaped by genetic variants.   D. can play a key role in cognition and features.

【2】What are findings of the research mainly based on?

A. Identification of the genetic variants of males and females.

B. Piles of data collected from 23andMe devoted to the research.

C. The researchers of the three universities and 23andMe.

D. Controlled experiments on genetic studies on chromosome 3.

【3】The underlined word in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by ________.

A. uncivilized   B. unexpected   C. unexampled   D. undecided

【4】The paragraph following the passage will most possibly talk about

A. the way 23andMe collects the data concerning the genetic research.

B. the way the data gathered from 23andMe are used for further studies.

C. the way scientists gain access to the research resource engine of 23andMe.

D. the way 23andMe takes a much closer look at the genetics of biology.

23、   Thousands of brave souls have ventured into the Rocky Mountains for the past decade, searching for a treasure chest filled with gold, rubies, emeralds and diamonds. But that adventure has finally come to an end. The treasure has been found.

Forrest Fenn, the 89-year-old art and antiquities collector who created the treasure hunt, made the announcement on his website. “It was under a starry sky, in the forested vegetation of the Rocky Mountains and had not moved from the site where I hid it more than 10 years ago,” Fenn wrote in his announcement.

The treasure was found a few days ago by a man who did not want to be named, Fenn told The Santa Fe New Mexican. The treasure, estimated to be worth over $1 million, was a way for Fenn to inspire people to explore nature and give hope to people affected by the Great Recession, he said. Clues leading to the treasure’s location were included in a 24-line poem published in Fenn’s 2010 autobiography The Thrill of the Chase.

Fenn roughly calculated that as many as 350,000 people from all over the world went hunting for the treasure, traversing mountains and streams, and enjoying the magnificent scenery along the way. Some even quit their jobs to fully dedicate their lives to the hunt.

“I congratulate the thousands of people who participated in the search and hope they will continue to be drawn by the promise of other discoveries, ”Fenn said on his website.

【1】How can people find the treasure chest?

A.By spotting clues hidden in a poem written by Fenn.

B.By adventuring mountains and streams.

C.By planting vegetable gardens in the Rocky Mountains.

D.By observing the stars in the sky.

【2】What is one reason for Fenn’s creating this hunt?

A.Attracting people to appreciate his autobiography.

B.Motivating people to refresh from the economic depression.

C.Encouraging people to evaluate the worth of the treasure.

D.Inspiring people to protect the environment.

【3】What did some treasure hunters do to achieve success?

A.They changed their names.

B.They gathered 350, 000 participants.

C.They expanded the search around the world.

D.They abandoned their former career.

【4】Which of the following can best describe Forrest Fenn?

A.Frank and gentle. B.Generous and optimistic.

C.Independent and humorous. D.Creative and tolerant.

24、Greenhouse gas emissions would rise if all farms in England and Wales went organic. Though the emissions of each farm would go down, much more food would have to be imported, as the amount they would produce would decrease greatly.

“The key message from my perspective is that you can't really have your cake and eat it,” says Laurence Smith, now at the Royal Agricultural University in the UK, who was part of the team that ran the numbers. Smith is a supporter of organic farming and says “there are a lot of merits of the organic approach”, but his analysis shows that organic farming has downsides too.

Farming and changes in land use, such as cutting down forests, are responsible for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions. That means reducing farming emissions and the land needed for farming is required to limit further global warming.

Smith and his colleagues found that emissions per unit of food are, on average, 20 per cent lower for organic crops and 4 per cent lower for organic animal products. However, organic harvests per hectare (公顷) are also lower on average. For wheat and barley, for instance, harvests are just half of those of conventional farms. This means 1.5 times as much land would be needed to grow the same amount of these foods.

The estimated increase in emissions varies greatly, depending on where the extra farmland comes from. If only half comes from turning grassland into farms, the increase could be as low as 20 per cent. If grassland that would otherwise have been reforested is turned into farmland, emissions could nearly double.

This doesn't necessarily mean people should stop eating organic produce, says Smith. People might choose organic food for other reasons, such as to reduce their pesticide exposure (though contrary to popular belief, organic farmers do use pesticides) or for the sake of wildlife.

Going 100 per cent organic could also harm global biodiversity. The extra land used for farming would mean the land available for wildlife would be smaller and more fragmented (碎片化的).

Smith says the best option may be to use some organic and conventional farming methods at the same time.

【1】Why may greenhouse gas emissions increase if a country goes organic?

A．Organic farms take longer to build.

B．The agricultural output will increase greatly.

C．The emissions of each farm unit will increase.

D．Greater demand for imported food will be created.

【2】What does the underlined word “merits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Changes.

B．Challenges.

C．Advantages.

D．Differences.

【3】What did Smith and his colleagues find?

A．Organic harvests per unit are greater than traditional harvests.

B．Organic farming needs more farmland to feed a country.

C．Global warming could be brought under control.

D．Land was not used in a responsible way.

【4】What is Smith's proposal?

A．Stopping using pesticides.

B．Eating less organic produce.

C．Going back to traditional farming.

D．Adopting mixed farming methods.
