21、Researchers from a U.K. plant research institute have found a way to provide plants with an antibody-based defense for a specific threat, potentially speeding the creation of crops resistant to any kind of emerging virus, or bacterium (细菌). The strategy is to inoculate a protein from the plant pathogen (病原体) to be targeted to a camel or other camel relatives, purify the unusually small antibodies the camels produce, and engineer the corresponding gene section for them into a plant’s own immune gene.

Farmers lose many billions of dollars to plant diseases each year, and emerging pathogens pose new threats to food security in the developing world. Plants have evolved their own immune system, kick-started by cell receptors that recognize general pathogen features, such as a bacterial cell wall, as well as intracellular receptors for molecules (分子) produced by specific pathogens. If a plant cell detects these molecules, it may trigger its own death to save the rest of the plant. But plant pathogens often evolve and escape from those receptors.

A long-standing dream in plant biotechnology is to create designer disease resistance genes that could be produced as fast as pathogens emerge. One approach is to edit the gene for a plant immune receptor, changing the protein’s shape to recognize a particular pathogenic molecule.

Instead, Sophien Kamoun, a molecular biologist at the Sainsbury Laboratory, and his colleagues used an animal immune system to help make the receptor adjustments. During an infection with a new pathogen, animals produce billions of slightly different antibodies, ultimately selecting and mass-producing those that best target the virus.

Camelids, which include camels, are workhorses for antibody design because their immune systems create unusually small versions, called nano-bodies. As a proof of principle of the new plant defense strategy, Kamoun’s group turned to two standard camelid nano-bodies that recognize two different molecules, including one called green fluorescent protein (GFP), to detect test viruses, in this case a potato virus, engineered to make the fluorescent proteins. They investigated how well plants with the nano-body-enhanced receptors detected the changed potato viruses. It was found that the plants increased an active immune response and experienced almost no viral reproduction.

“The exciting part about this technology is that we have the potential of made-to-order resistance genes and keeping up with a pathogen,” Kamoun says. “This technology is a potential game changer,” says Jeff Dangl, a plant researcher at the University of North Carolina. Ksenia Krasileva, a scientist at the University of California, Berkeley, says the mixture of nano-bodies with plant immune receptors opens up a vast body of biomedical knowledge for plant scientists. “We can now dig into all of that research and translate it to save crops.”

【1】What does the underlined word “inoculate” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．Compare.

B．Restore.

C．Introduce.

D．Label.

【2】What is the main purpose of Paragraph 2?

A．To illustrate the function of cells in saving the plant.

B．To explain how to strengthen plant receptors effectively.

C．To demonstrate the solutions to farmers’ annual heavy losses.

D．To reveal why plants fail to handle constantly-updated diseases.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A．Editing plant receptors is to match the shape of pathogens.

B．Nano-bodies can help plants catch up with pathogen changes.

C．Plants select the best antibodies from animals to fight viruses.

D．Plants with nano-bodies respond actively in massive virus copying.

【4】According to the passage, scientists will .

A．apply the outcome in the real world

B．prove the findings of resistance genes

C．identify similar means to fight diseases

23、Jon Pedley is making a big change. He is giving up his life as a successful businessman for life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut it Uganda, East Africa.

Pedley admits that he has not always led a very positive life. At times he drank too much and got in trouble with the law. “I’ve always put the pursuit(追求) of money in front of everything else. As long as I was all right, I didn’t care who I was hurting,” says Pedley.

But a visit to Uganda in 2007 gave Pedley a new outlook(观点) on life. He was amazed at what he saw and how much the people there appreciated the work he was doing. “I worked there for a few days and these people who have nothing thanked me by giving me bags of potatoes, which are a fortune for them,” he said.

Now Pedley is selling his business, his $1.5 million farmhouse, and his expensive car — and moving into a hut made of mud and boards in a small Ugandan village. There he will help run an organization that hopes to improve the quality of life for people in the village of Kigazi. He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers. Today, people in Kigazi must walk two miles to a hospital, so Pedley will help to build doctors’ offices, too.

Pedley’s organization will also work with English teenagers who are in trouble. The teens will be sent to a “camp” in Uganda that Pedley will run. The teens will live in mud huts and help to build water, health and education facilities(设备) for kids in Kigazi, many of whom have lost their parents due to poverty or disease. Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.

【1】Which of the following can best describe Pedley’s life in the past?

A．Positive.

B．Colorful.

C．Independent.

D．Selfish.

【2】What will Pedley do in the small Ugandan village?

A．Grow potatoes with the local people.

B．Teach English in the local school.

C．Assist villagers with construction work.

D．Help to attract more tourists to the village.

【3】Why will Pedley work with English teenagers who are in trouble?

A．To encourage them to make friends with locals.

B．To encourage them to live a more positive life.

C．To train them to become doctors in the future.

D．To make them learn about different cultures.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．From a millionaire to living in a mud hut

B．A life-changing adventure

C．A rich man becoming homeless

D．A grateful businessman

24、   How good are we at predicting（预测）what people will do? What magazine will they buy, what music will they download, or what shoes will they choose for a party? Probably not nearly as good as we think. When it comes to human behavior, the brain is shown to have two different ways of thinking. So it doesn’t matter how old you are or how confident you are feeling. It’s all about what mood the brain is in!

A common thought process is the automatic and fast way which helps us to react（反应）quickly in dangerous situations. This is known as system I and dates back to the prehistoric times when people lived with a natural awareness of the dangers around them—bad weather, falling rocks and trees, and threatening animals. Nowadays we still have the ability to react so rapidly and naturally to situations that it can feel like you’re not thinking at all. Have you ever found yourself giving in to temptation （诱惑） and unable to say “no” to buying that new jacket in the window? This is because system 1 is in control—a human characteristic which the world of advertising likes to make the most of!

System 2 is the opposite. It’s a slow thought process that requires us to pay attention and concentrate. This way of thinking helps us to make sensible long-term decisions like choosing which university to study at, or what type of car to buy. The problem is that system 2 often starts to feel boring and so system I takes over. How often have you put down your homework or put off doing important jobs to go on Facebook or watch a TV soap?

We like to think that we go through life mainly using system 2. However, sometimes it’s system 1 that makes the right decision but system 2 that gets it wrong. For example, sports teams put a lot of effort into a game plan, but often it’s the unconscious（无意识的）human wish to do something differently that often leads to an unexpected win. This can also lead to the common mistaken idea that your successful decisions show your skill and talent, when in fact they were just luck.

Perhaps one day scientists will be able to predict what decisions people will make by measuring brain activity. In one study, volunteers were monitored with brain-scanning equipment. They were asked to press either a left or a right button whenever they wanted. The researchers found they could predict which button the volunteers would press up to seven seconds before it happened—your brain seems lo know what it will do before you do! Some scientists say our brains are just machines and we are not really in control of what’s going on. Let’s hope they’re wrong! It’s one thing to be able to tell which of two buttons a person will press, but I don’t like the idea that science could one day tell me what decisions 1 will make in my life before I’ve even had the chance to make them!

【1】System 1 is more likely to be in control when you ________.

A.choose a university

B.plan a birthday party

C.buy a jacket in the window

D.prepare for a performance

【2】The example of sports teams in Paragraph 4 is mentioned to show ________.

A.people arc more willing to use system 1

B.we go through life mainly using system 2

C.system 2 usually makes the wrong decision

D.system I sometimes makes the right decision

【3】How does the author feel about the idea that scientists can predict people’s decisions?

A.Unhappy. B.Uninterested.

C.Hopeful. D.Confident.

【4】What is the best title of the passage?

A.Two Systems of Thought

B.Early Brain Development

C.The Importance of Planning

D.Two Ways of Dealing with Danger

25、   Okay, I have to write something. My essay is_______in an hour and I have no idea where to start.

I hear the ticking Of Mark's pencil, Josie's constant throat-clearing, and a bird. I_______out of the classroom window. The sky is heavy with clouds and the wind is blowing wildly.
