8、nes which can fight cancer and a range of diseases that cannot be cured. The experts say HIV has an almost perfect ability to avoid the bodys immune (免疫的) defenses, making it ideal for carrying replacement genes into patients bodies, according to the Observer.A team at the California-based Salk Inst
9、itute, one of the worlds leading research centers on biological sciences, has created a special new breed of HIV and has started negotiations with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin clinical gene therapy (治疗) trials this year. The first trials are expected to involve patients suffe
10、ring from cancers that cannot be cured by surgery although project leader Professor Inder Verma said the HIV technique would have “far wider applications“.The plan remains very likely to cause controversy since it involves making use of a virus which has caused more than 22 million deaths around the
11、 world in the past two decades. Verma said that the idea of using HIV for a beneficial purpose was “shocking“ but the fierce nature of HIV had disappeared by having all six of the potentially deadly genes removed.Illnesses such as various cancers are caused when a gene in a patients body fails to wo
12、rk properly. In the past two years, breakthroughs in genetics (遗传学) have led gene therapy scientists to try and replace the genes that do not function normally.Unfortunately, the bodys immune defenses have been known to attack the modified genes and make them lose their effects before they can start
13、 their task and progress in the field has been held up by the lack of a suitable carrier.The HIV virus has the ability to escape from, and then destroy, the immune defense cells designed to protect our bodies and this makes it attractive to scientists as a way of secretly conveying replacement genes

20、5.00)Immune FunctionsThe immune system is equal in complexity to the combined intricacies of the brain and nervous system. The success of the immune system in defending the body relies on a dynamic regulatory communication network consisting of millions and millions of cells. Organized into sets and
21、 subsets,these cells pass information back and forth like clouds of bees flying around a hive (蜂巢). The result is a sensitive system of checks and balances that produces an immune response that is prompt, appropriate effective, and self-limiting.At the heart of the immune system is the ability to di
22、stinguish between self and no self. When immune defenders encounter cells or organisms carrying foreign or nonself molecules,the immune troops move quickly to eliminate the intruders(入侵者). Virtually every body cell carries distinctive molecules that identify it as self. The bodys immune defenses do
23、not normally attack tissues that carry a selfmarker. Rather, immune cells and other body cells coexist peaceably in s state known as self-toler-ance. When a normally functioning immune system attacks a nonself molecule, the system has the ability to“remember“ the specifics of the foreign body. Upon
24、subsequent encounters with the same species of molecules, the immune system reacts accordingly. With the possible exception of antibodies(抗体) passed during lactation (哺乳期), this so called immune system memory is not inherited. Despite the occurrence of a virus in your family,your immune system must
25、learn“ from experience with the many millions of distinctive nonself molecules in the sea of microbes (微生物)in which we live. Learning entails producing the appropriate molecules and cells to match up with and counteract each nonself invader.Any substance capable of triggering an immune response is
26、called an antigen(抗原). Antigens are not to be confused with allergens (过敏原), which are most often harmless substances that provoke the immune system to set off the inappropriate and harmful response known as allergy. An antigen can be a virus, a bacterium or even a portion or product of one of these
27、 organisms. Tissues or cells from another individual also act as antigens;because the immune system recognizes transplanted tissues as foreign, it rejects them. The body will even reject nourishing proteins unless they are first brokendown by the digestive system into their primary, nonantigenic bui
28、lding blocks. An antigen announces its foreignness by means of intricate and characteristic shapes called epitopes(抗原表位),which protrude(突 出) from its surface. Most antigens, even the simplest microbes, carry several different kinds of epitopes on their surface; some may even carry several hundreds.
29、Some epitopes will be more effective than others at stimulating an immune response. Only in abnormal situation does the immune system wrongly identify self as nonself and execute a misdirected immune attack.（分数：15.00）(1).What is used to describe the communication network consisting of cells in the i
30、mmune system?A. The immune systems memory.B. Immune troops eliminating intruders.C. Bees flying around a hive.D.

The human body is an appropriate habitat for microbes.D. The basic function of the immune system is to distinguish between self and nonself（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.六、第
34、二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Electronic TeachingThe potential of closed-circuit television and other new electronic leaching tools is so great that it is fascinating to visualize “the school of tomorrow“.Televised lessons will originate from a central building having perhaps four or five master studios. The le
35、ssons will be carried into classrooms all over a city, or even an entire country.After a televised lesson has been given, the classroom teacher will take over for tire all-important “follow-up“ period. The students will ask any troublesome questions, and difficult points will be cleared up through d
36、iscussion.The teacher in the classroom will have additional electronic tools. On the teachers desk, the traditional chalk and erasers will have been replaced by a multiple-control panel and magnetic tape players. The tape machines will run pre-recorded lessons which pupils will follow by headphones.
37、 The lessons will be specifically geared to the students levels of ability. For instance, while the class as a whole studies history, each student will receive an individual history lesson, directed to his particular level of ability.Should question arise, the students will be able to talk directly

45、00)Acceptance of Chronic IllnessFor chronically ill patients, giving up the hope that they will get better may actually lead to more happiness, U.S. researchers suggest. “Hope is an important part of happiness, but theres a dark side of hope. Sometimes, if hope makes people put off getting on with t
46、heir life, it can get in the way of happiness,“ Dr. Peter A. Ubel from the University of Michigan Health System said in a university news release. He and his colleagues studied patients whod just had a colostomy (结肠造口术), which means their colons (结肠) were removed and they had to have howe1 (肠) movem
47、ents in a pouch (小袋) outside the body. At the time of the surgery, some patients were told the procedure was reversible and theyd have a second operation in a few months to reconnect their bowels. Other patients were told the colostomy was permanent. The patients were followed for six months, and th
48、e researchers found that those without hope of regaining normal bowel function were happier than those with reversible colostomies. “We think they were happier because they got on with their life. They realized the cards they were dealt, and recognized that they had no choice but to play with those
49、cards,“ Ubel said. “The other group was waiting for their colostomy to be reversed. They contrasted their current life with the life they hoped to lead, and didnt make the best of their current situation. “ The study, published in the November edition of Health Psychology, also may explain why people whose spouse dies often recover better emotionally over tim
