Why cant a human do the same? asked Peruvian-born surgeon Dr. Anthony Atala in a recent interview. The question, a reference t

35、o work aiming to grow new limbs for wounded soldiers, captures the inventive spirit of regenerative medicine. This innovative field seeks to provide patients with replacement body parts. These parts are not made of steel; they are the real things-living cells, tissue, and even organs.Regenerative me

36、dicine is still mostly experimental, with clinical applications limited to procedures such as growing sheets of skin on burns and wounds. One of its most significant advances took place in 1999, when a research group at North Carolinas Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine conducted a succ

37、essful organ replacement with a laboratory-grown bladder. Since then, the team, led by Dr. Atala, has continued to generate a variety of other tissues and organs 一 from kidneys to ears.The field of regenerative medicine builds on work conducted in the early twentieth century with the first successfu

38、l transplants of donated human soft tissue and bone. However, donor organs are not always the best option. First of all, they are in short supply, and many people die while waiting for an available organ; in the United States alone, more than 100, 000people are waiting for organ transplants. Secondl

39、y, a patients body may ultimately reject the transplanted donor organ. An advantage of regenerative medicine is that the tissues are grown from a patients own cells and will not be rejected by the bodys immune system.Today, several labs are working to create bioartificial body parts. Scientists at C

40、olumbia and Yale Universities have grown a jawbone and a lung. At the University of Minnesota, Doris Taylor has created a beating bioartificial rat heart. Dr. Atalas medical team has reported long-term success with bioengineered bladders implanted into young patients with spina bifida (a birth defec

41、t that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord). And at the University of Michigan, H. David Humes has created an artificial kidney.So far, the kidney procedure has only been used successfully with sheep, but there is hope that one day similar kidney will be implantable in a human pat

42、ient. The continuing research of scientists such as these may eventually make donor organs unnecessary and, as a result, significantly increase individualschances of survival.58. In the latest field of regenerative medicine，what are replacement parts made of?A. Donated cells, tissues and organs.B. R

43、ejected cells, tissues and organs.C. Cells, tissues and organs of ones own.D. Cells, tissues and organs made of steel.59. What have scientists experimented successfully on for a bioartificial kidney?A. PatientsB. RatsC. SheepD. Soldiers60. Why is generative medicine considered innovative?A. It will

44、provide patients with replacement soft tissues.B. It will strengthen the human bodys immune system.C. It will shorten the time patients waiting for a donated organ.D. It will make patients live longer with bioartificial organs.61. What is the writers attitude towards regenerative medicine?A. Positiv

45、e B. Negative C. Doubtful D. ReservedCA few weeks ago, a 71-year-old man pulled his car to the roadside in Northwest Portland and stopped. He rolled down the window, turned off the engine and stared at a house.The place, distinguished by three gables, is partially hidden by hedges and trees. Most pe

46、ople who pass by would never notice it. And if they did give it a glance, theyd probably think its a nice house in a nice neighborhood. Nothing more.The house, in the 2500 block of Northwest Westover Road, is known as the Bessie & Louis Tarpley House. Built in 1907, its listed on the National Regist

47、er of Historic Places.The current owner is Barbee Lyon, 79.He and his first wife took possession in 1975. When they divorced, he bought out her share.A retired lawyer, Lyon learned Louis Tarpley, the homes first owner, had also been a Portland lawyer. Setbacks in Tarpleys life led to the house aucti

48、on(拍卖) in the late 1920s.“Im only the fifth owner of the home,” Lyon said. A previous owner was Frank Masco.He and his wife, Esther, and their nine children had lived across town in a tiny house needing constant repairs. In the mid-1950s, the elder Masco wanted to move to a bigger house and one clos

49、er to work. A docker (码头工人), he was on-call 24 hours a day and had to quickly get to the Willamette River docks.He found a home on Westover Road. At the time, many people wanted to live in new construction in the suburbs. The Westover house was offered at a deep discount.And later the family moved o

50、n several times, finally living in Vancouver.One Sunday in July 2019, Charley Masco drove to Portland for an appointment at a computer store.When it ended, he traveled the familiar route to Westover Road, pulled over and looked at that home.He decided to do something bold. He got out of his car and

51、walked up the steps and rang the doorbell. He waited. No response. Nervous, he thought it was a mistake to do this and considered turning around and walking back to his car.Barbee Lyon opened the door and saw a stranger.“Im not selling anything,” Masco said quickly. “I just want you to know I once l

52、ived here.” Lyon opened the door wide.“Come in.”And for the first time since 1966, Masco stepped into his childhood home.Every room looked as Masco had remembered it: The built-in china hutch in the dining room, the hanging lights above the table and, in the kitchen, a massive wood-burning stove whe

53、re his mother used to cook family meals. It was as if he had walked into his own museum.Lyon told Masco hed never done major structural remodeling, which meant Masco knew his way around the home.It was as if he had never left.There, on the top floor, was the window he and his siblings quietly opened

54、 to sneak out at night and return before their parents knew they were gone. The loft where friends daydreamed about the future. The living room no TV ever allowed where the family gathered to share music, play cards or just talk with each other.Then they all walked to the basementIn the far corner,

55、Masco saw his fathers old wooden workbench. And above it, baby food jars.Masco had forgotten about them.He explained that his father had nailed lids from the jars to a rafter, filling the glass with different size screws, nuts and bolts, and then screwing the jars back into the lids to give him easy

56、 access while working.Masco thought about his father, his mother and three of his siblings who have died. He thought about his father, tinkering in the basement, while his mother was in the kitchen preparing dinner.He thought about the 71-year-old man he was and the boy he had once been.Kruse, Lyons

57、 wife, reached up and unscrewed a jar. She handed it to Masco, believing it belonged to this stranger.Masco thanked her.He clutched the small bottle to his chest. “My dad,” he said quietly. “This is my dad.”62. Why did Charley Masco come to visit the Westover house?A. He wanted to review his past an

58、d hold memories.B. He attempted to buy back his childhood house.C. His friend invited him to be a guest at his newly-bought house.D. He came to the house where his father lived to seek roots.63. What made Frank Masco decide to buy the house?A. The houses owner had been a Portland lawyer.B. The house

59、 was auctioned at a very low price.C. He desired to improve his familys living conditions.D. The house was equipped with a basement.64. Why did Charley Masco feel nervous when he rang the doorbell?A. He knew the house owner was a bad-tempered man.B. He thought it was improper to pay an unexpected vi

60、sit.C. He might not hold back his feelings when he went in.D. He feared the house owner would take him for a salesman.65. What can be a suitable title for the passage?A. Collision of Two HeartsB. Experiences of Two FamiliesC. An Unexpected MeetingD. The Harbour of the Heart第二节七选五阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

61、根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Much of the work in todays world is accomplishedin teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 66 Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent? 67 The

62、y focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the teams performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this

63、 trend isnt evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the teams performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate (协调) their actions. 68 In baseball, the performance of in

64、dividual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for e

65、xample, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the teams performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” 69 Another possibility is that when there is a

66、lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war (拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force. 70 . An A-team may require a balancenot just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A. Its not a simple matter to det

67、ermine the nature of talent.B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent C. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers attention.D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in th

68、e sports world.F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.第五部分单词拼写(共10小题；每题1分，满分10分)71.

Jason Storie heard it but was not worried as he prepared for a day of caving with five friends in a remote spot 80 mil

79、es northwest of his home in Duncan, on Canadas Vancouver Island.It was 6 a.m. on December 5, 2015. As a newcomer to the sport, Jason had gone caving only four times. This would be his toughest outing yet: a cave called Cascade. It was dangerous enough that the entrance was blocked by a locked metal

80、door to keep the casual cavers out. About a mile long and 338 feet deep,Cascade was full of tums and barely passable tight squeezes.Jason was new among the group, with the least experience and, at 43, older by a decade or more. It was his friend Andrew Munoz, 33, who introduced him to the sport. Unl

It was 10 a.m. With their way lighted by headlamps, they walked down a narrow passage studded with sharp rocks. The silen

82、ce was broken by a drip-drip-drip from above. Soon the drip turned into a light but steady flow, and they were wading in water up to their ankles, then to their shins.Two hours later, they approached one of the features that made the cave unique: a narrow passage not big enough to stand up in that l

83、ed into a short, tight downhill. This had a name: Bastards Crawl. Four streams met here, and indeed, the water was flowing more quickly. The sound of the water had turned into a roar. When they finally neared the top of the Crawl, there were barely four inches of air left between the water and the c

Every once in a while, one of them turned on his headlamp to check the water level.An hour later, the water level went down enough that they could try an escape. Stiff from keeping in one position for 12 hours, they slowly unfolded their bodi

89、es. Jason screamed in pain, but he was determined not to let it stop him.Slowly but steadily, the group made their way forward. Still, each time Jason moved a leg, he cried out. Over the next 90 minutes, they made their way toward the entrance, at times inchest-high water. Now, in a passage that was high enough for them to walk upright, Jason saw something flicker in the distance. “Lights! I see lights!” Jason shouted out. For the first time since entering the cave, over 20 hours earlier, Jasons emotions got the best of him and tears trickled down his cheeks.
