1、UNIT 6THE MEDIA.阅读理解A2022合肥市第三次质量检测Born on July 1st, 1948, in the small Italian city of Palmi, Roberto Crea was a genius kid. He moved to the Netherlands and majored in Biological Chemistry. It was this university that directed his interest in the synthesis (合成) of nucleotides, the basic units that

2、are required to build DNA. At that time, not many researchers studied the combination of genes (基因), but Robertos strong chemistry background made a historical invention possible. In 1977, he joined the Genentech, Inc. and the gene synthesis team at City of Hope Medical School. The company funded Dr

This benefited hundreds of millions of people suffering from diabetes (糖尿病) all over the world.Today Roberto is known as the father of synthetic insulin and ha

5、d almost won the Nobel Prize. His efforts did not stop after discovering the synthetic insulin; in fact, he was more than driven and tried to make more contributions to the field of biotechnology. His team of experts discovered Ziconotide under his teachings and guidance. According to leading scient

10、ls like a good moment to sing the praises of an often forgotten contributor to their development. Three hundred years ago this month, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu got her daughter inoculated (接种) against smallpox, making her child the first person in the West to be protected in this way. Without Montag

11、us willingness to adopt a practice she had learned from other cultures, the introduction of vaccines around 80 years later would never have taken place.Montagu first witnessed inoculation when she accompanied her husband to Turkey. Inoculation had started in Asia, probably in China, as early as the

12、10th century AD. Montagu observed how older women in Turkey took a tiny amount of pus (脓) from a person with smallpox. They then used needles to make cuts on peoples wrists and ankles and added the pus to their bloodstream. This helped people gain immunity from future infection.Like other visitors t

13、o the country, Montagu took steps to ensure that her son was inoculated. This worked well, but she knew that trying it in England would be far more challenging. Inoculation performed by unlicensed amateurs would threaten doctors professional standing and potentially rob them of valuable income. Some

14、 people also disagree with the practice, as they saw it as going against nature.Back in England, Montagu observed the increased severity of smallpox infections. Eventually, in April 1721, she decided to use the Turkish practice to have her daughter inoculated, because she believed that the rewards w

15、ould outweigh the risks. After a safe time had passed following the inoculation, Montagu allowed doctors to examine her daughter.Doctors in Britain gradually accepted the practice. About 80 years later, a pioneering physician found smallpox vaccines to destroy smallpox completely. As early as last c
