If a user in a country withU (2) /Ugoes to a privacy-protection site, that site becomes a shell that

So while a userU (4) /Uat the Safe Web site, for example, the site has an embedded frame that givesU (5) /U.But when go

When her son David was 2 years old, a pediatrician noticed developmental delays and suspected fragile syndrome, a her

21、editary form of mental retardation. A lab test confirmed the diagnosis, and the Stephensons spent several years learning to live with it. When David was 6, he visited a neurologist, who scribbled “fragile X“ on an insurance-company claim form. The company responded promptlyby canceling coverage for

22、the entire family of six. There is no medical treatment for fragile X, and none of Davids siblings had been diagnosed with the condition. “The company didnt care,“ Stephenson says. “They just saw a positive genetic test and said, Youre out. “From the dawn of the DNA era, critics have worried that ge

23、netic testing would create a “biological underclass“a population of people whose genes brand them as poor risks for employment, insurance, even marriage. The future is arriving fast. Medical labs can now test human cells for hundreds of anomalous genes. Besides tracking rare conditions, some firms n

24、ow gauge peoples susceptibility to more common scourges. By unmasking inherited mutations in p53 ( main story) and other, genes, the new tests can signal increased risk of everything from breast, colon and prostate tumors to leukemia. Many of the tests are still too costly for mass marketing, but th

25、at will change. And as the Stephensons story suggests, the consequences wont all be benign. “This is bigger than race or sexual orientation,“ says Martha Volner, health-policy director for the Alliance of Genetic Support Groups. “Genetic discrimination is the civil-rights issue of the 21st century.“

26、No one would argue that genetic tests are worthless. Used properly, they can give people unprecedented power over their lives. Prospective parents who discover theyre silent carriers of the gene for a disease can make better-in formed decisions about whether and how to have kids. Some genetic maladi

27、es can be managed through medication and lifestyle changes once theyre identified. And while knowing that youre at special risk for cancer may be an emotional burden, it can also alert you to the need for intensive monitoring. Jane Gorrell knows her family is prone to colon cancer. Her father develo

28、ped hundreds of precancerous polyps back in the 1960s, and both she and her sister had the same experience during the 70s. Their condition, has since been linked to a mutation in the p53 geneand Gorrell has learned, that one of her two children inherited it. Though the child has suffered no symptoms

29、, she gets frequent colon exams and is helping researchers test a drug that could help save lives.The catch is that no one can guarantee the privacy of genetic information. Outside of large group plans, insurance companies often scour peoples medical records before extending coverage. And though emp

30、loyers face some restriction, virtually any company with a benefits program can get access to workers health data. So can schools, adoption agencies and the military. Employees of Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL), a large research institution owned by the Department of Energy and operated by the U

31、niversity of California, recently discovered that the organization had for three decades been quietly testing new hires blood and urine samples for evidence of various conditions. “I cant say the information was put to some incredibly harmful use, because we dont know what happened,“ says Vicki Lade

32、n, a San Francisco lawyer who has tried unsuccessfully to sue the lab for civil fights violations. LBL recently stopped the testing.（分数：10.00）(1).In the sentence“There is no medical treatment for fragile X, and none of Davids siblings had been diagnosed with the condition.“( para.1 ), the word “sibl

37、re than ten years ago, Ingmar Bergman announced that the widely acclaimed Fanny and Alexander would mark his last hurrah as a filmmaker. Although some critics had written him off as earnest but ponderous, others were saddened by the departure of an artist who had explored cinematic moodsfrom high tr

38、agedy to low comedyduring his four-decade career.What nobody foresaw was that Bergman would find a variety of ways to circumvent his own retirementdirecting television movies, staging theater productions, and writing screenplays for other filmmakers to direct. His latest enterprise as a screenwriter

39、, Sundays Children, completes a trilogy of family-oriented movies that began with Fanny and Alexander and continued with The Best Intentions written by Bergman and directed by Danish filmmaker Bille August.Besides dealing with members of Bergmans family in bygone timesit begins a few years after The

40、 Best Intentions leaves offthe new picture was directed by Daniel Bergman, his youngest son. Although it lacks the urgency and originality of the elder Bergmans greatest achievements, such as The Silence and Persona, it has enough visual and emotional interest to make a worthy addition to his body o

41、f work.Set in rural Sweden during the late 1920s, the story centers on a young boy named Pu, dearly modeled on Ingmar Bergman himself. Pus father is a country clergyman whose duties include traveling to the capital and ministering to the royal family. While this is an enviable position, it doesnt as

42、suage problems in the pastors marriage. Pu is young enough to be fairly oblivious to such difficulties, but his awareness grows with the passage of time. So do the subtle tensions that mar Pus own relationship with his father, whose desire to show affection and compassion is hampered by a certain st

43、iffness in his demeanor and chilliness in his emotions.The films most resonant passages take place when Pu learns to see his father with new clarity while accompanying him on a cross-country trip to another parish. In a remarkable change of tone, this portion of the story is punctuated with flash-fo

44、rwards to a time 40 years in the future, showing the relationship between parent and child to be dramatically reversed: The father is now cared for by the son, and desires a forgiveness for past shortcomings that the younger man resolutely refuses to grant.Brief and abrupt though they are, these sce

45、nes make a pungent contrast with the sunny landscapes and comic interludes in the early part of the movie.Sundays Children is a film of many levels, and all are skillfully handled by Daniel Bergman in his directional debut. Gentle scenes of domestic contentment are sensitively interwoven with intima

46、tions of underlying malaise. While the more nostalgic sequences are photographed with an eye-dazzling beauty that occasionally threatens to become cloying, any such result is foreclosed by the jagged interruptions of the flash-forward sequencesan intrusive device that few filmmakers are agile enough

47、 to handle successfully, but that is put to impressive use by the Bergman team.Henrik Linnros gives a smartly turned performance as young Pu, and Thommy Berggrenwho starred in the popular Elvira Madigan years agois steadily convincing as his father. Top honors go to the screenplay, though, which carries the crowded canvas of Fanny and Alexander and the emotional ambiguity of The Best Intentions into fresh and sometimes fascinating territory.（分数：10.00）(1).Bergman completed a trilogy of family-oriented movies during_.（分数：2.00）A.(A) more than ten yearsB.(B) the bygone timesC.(C) th
