【題目】 AIDS may be one of the most undesirable diseases in the world. Luckily, there is now hope for AIDS patients. According to a recent paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Chinese scientists have successfully used CRISPR technology-a method of gene editing-to treat a patient with HIV. While it may not have cured the patient fully, it still represents a huge step forward in fighting the disease.

The patient was a 27-year-old Chinese man who was diagnosed with both AIDS and acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a type of blood cancer. Despite his bleak situation, doctors offered him a glimmer of hope: a bone marrow (骨髓) transplant to treat his cancer and an experimental treatment for his HIV.

They edited the DNA in bone marrow stem cells from a donor before transplanting the cells into the patient. Specifically, the treatment involved using the gene-editing tool CRISPR-Cas9 to delete a gene known as CCRS, which encodes a protein that HIV uses to get inside human cells. Without the gene, HIV is unable to enter cells. Talking about the gene, lead scientist Deng Hongkui told CNN, “After being edited, the cells-and the blood cells they produce-have the ability to resist HIV infection.” Nineteen months after the treatment, the patient’s leukemia was in complete relief and donor cells without CCR5 remained, according to the research paper.

Though the transplant did not cure the man’s HIV, it still showed the effectiveness of gene-editing technology, as there was no indication of any unintended genetic alterations (改變) -a major concern with past gene therapy experiments.

Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in the United States, who was not involved in the study, praised the treatment. “They did a very innovative experiment, it was safe,” he told Live Science. “It should be viewed as a success.”

Deng believes gene-editing technology could “bring a new dawn” to blood-related diseases such as AIDS and sickle cell anemia. Thanks to this new technology, “the goal of a functional cure for AIDS is getting closer and closer,” he said.

1How did the new treatment fight against HIV?

A.By preventing HIV from entering cells.B.By changing the structure of HIV.

C.By removing a protein that HIV feeds on.D.By identifying and killing HIV.

2What was the result of the treatment?

A.CCR5 and other genes in the patient’s cells were changed.

B.Some of the patient’s blood cells could resist HIV infection.

C.HIV could no longer get into the patient’s cells.

D.The donor cells without CCR5 disappeared finally.

3What do we know about the experiment?

A.It has provided an innovative way to cure AIDS patients.

B.It pointed out the problems of gene therapy for AIDS.

C.It’s the first experiment to use gene-editing technology to treat AIDS.

D.It could offer a safe treatment for blood-related diseases.

【題目】Traditions of giving middle names vary around the world.

Scotland

Middle names are actually a fairly recent discovery in Scotland. However, as the practice has become popular around the world, it has become pretty common for Scottish babies to have middle names. Because last names in Scotland are generally associated with their family roots, and first names usually describe a physical characteristic, many parents see a middle name as an opportunity to give their baby a slightly more creative name.

Spain and Latin America

In Spain and Latin America, a middle name is a way to break free from the cultural code governing first names. In some countries, even first names are legislated(立法) to be of Christian origin. In Chile, most girls are named Maria, after the Virgin Mary, so the middle name is used in practice for differentiation. Maria is the most common name in the Spanish-speaking world, so in all Spanish-speaking countries the middle name takes on great significance.

Russia

In Russia, both boys and girls are given middle names based on their father's first name. For boys, the middle name usually has ovich, or evich, added to its ending. For girls, the middle patronymic(從父名衍生出的名字) name usually has ovna, or evna, added to its ending. People in Russia are often referred to by both their first and middle names, sort of the way parents in America use their children's full names when they're trying to get their attention(or yell at them). Close friends in Russia often don't use their first names completely, and use only patronymic names, when talking to each other.

Australia

According to Law Buddy, an Australian legal advice service, child naming laws in Australia allow Birth Registrars to refuse to register baby names that to be offensive to register to careless, inappropriate, ridiculous. They do allow for children to get a middle name, which is typically reserved for the mother's maiden name(娘家姓),provided, of course, that the mother's maiden name is not offensive, careless, inappropriate, or ridiculous.

1What do we know about giving middle names in Scotland?

A.It needs to be based on their family roots.

B.It's opposed by the elderly in the country

C.It mainly describes a baby's appearance.

D.It didn't become common until not long ago

2What role do middle names in the Spanish-speaking countries play?

A.Showing family roots.

B.Showing their unique culture.

C.Describing a physical characteristic.

D.Allowing people to have different names

3What is a typical feature of middle names in Russia?

A.They usually have the same ending.

B.They're usually very creative names.

C.They're usually difficult to remember.

D.They're based on their father's middle name.

4What should parents in Australia consider when naming their children?

A.Avoiding a middle name.

B.Avoiding registering baby names.

C.Using the mother's proper maiden name.

D.Using an unusual name for differentiation.
