Scientists are hoping to eliminate malaria (疟疾) by developing a genetically modified mosquito that cannot transmit the disease. Malaria has long troubled the populations of SouthAmerica,Africa, andAsia, where mosquito bites infect up to 500 million people a year with this serious and sometimes fatal parasitic blood disease. For generations, scientists have been trying to eliminate malaria by developing new drugs and using pesticides (杀虫剂) to wipe out local mosquito populations.But these measure aren’t working--and some scientists, like Greg Lanzaro, say that because of drug resistance and population changes, malaria is actually more prevalent now than it was 20 years ago. Lanzaro says he has a better way to stop the spread of malaria: genetically modifying mosquitoes so they are unable to carry the disease.
Lanzaro and his. colleagues are planning a multi-year project to produce malaria-resistant mosquitoes--and he thinks they can do it within five years. "We can get foreign genes into mosquitoes and they go where they’re supposed to go," Lanzaro says, pointing out that scientists have already succeeded in genetically engineering mosquitoes that cannot transmit malaria to birds and mice.And, he says, scientists are quickly making progress on genes that block transmission of the disease to humans as well.
The most difficult part scientifically, Lanzaro says, is figuring out how to get the lab-engineered mosquitoes to spread their genes into natural populations.After all, he points out, it’s useless to engineer mosquitoes in the lab that can’t transmit malaria when there are millions out in the wild that can. To solve this problem, Lanzaro wants to load up a mobile piece ofDNA、with the malaria-resistant gene, and then insert it into a group of mosquito embryos. The malaria-resistant gene would be integrated directly into the mosquitoes’DNA, making it impossible for those mosquitoes to transmit the parasite that causes malariA、In this way a small group of lab-raised mosquitoes could be released into the wild, and by interbreeding with wild mosquitoes, eventually transmit the beneficial gene to the entire population.
3题:{{B}}Passage Four{{/B}}
Lanzaro is hopeful that in a few years man can ______A.start to eliminate malaria
B.cure parasitic blood diseases
C.prevent mice from transmitting parasites
D.acquire immunity against malaria

4题:According to new research of Prof. Randolf Menzel from the Free University inBerlin, the popular image of bees as the ultimate hard workers was inaccurate. "Although we see bees buzzing around tirelessly in spring and summer, the common belief in a bee’s busy nature is based on a misconception," he saiD、People only really see bees when they’re out flying, or they look at a colony of bees and see thousands of them buzzing arounD、They don’t get to pick them out as individuals. The professor, who this month won a German Zoological Society award for his work on bees, added that bees compensated for their apparent laziness with high intelligence, advanced memory skills and an ability to learn quickly.
The suggestion that bees were not pulling their weight met with skepticism fromBritish beekeepers. GlynDavies, the President of theBritishBeekeepersAssociation, said that bees were not lazy but efficient. "At any particular stage in its life, a bee has a specific job to do. If they are unable to do that job, they conserve their energy by doing nothing.Each bee has a unit of life energy and the faster it works, the faster it dies. They are being very wise and perhaps humans should try to follow their example instead of running about like headless chickens. "
The idea of the busy bee is several thousand years olD、One current author who has nothing but admiration for the bee is Paul Theroux, the novelist and part-time beekeeper. "I have never seen a bee sleeping. My bees never stop working. " he said, Mr. Theroux, who keeps 85 hives each containing 30000 bees in Hawaii, added that Prof. Menzel’s research could have been affected by his national origins. "Perhaps in comparison to the German rate of work, the bee does look lazy," he saiD、
Few people think that the busy bee idea will go away, despite the efforts of Prof. Menzel. It performs too many useful functions in our culture. In fact, the worship of hees seems to be undergoing a renaissance. IBM recently ran a series of ads drawing on the " waggle dance" of bees, telling businessmen to "make your business waggle. \
What may happen to the idea of the busy bee
A、People will gradually lose interest in the ide
A、

B、People will continue to endorse the ide
A、
C.People will stop using the idea in education.
D.People will find a replacement to the ide

5题:Texte 3  Le monde aimable dont rêvent les ames sensibles  Essayons un instant d’imaginer ce monde où les intentions premières seraient réalisées. La maladie et la souffrance ont disparu. Les famines et les épidémies appartiennent au passé. La médecine n’est plus que préventive (预防性的). Pour faire bonne mesure, on peut même ajouter que les hommes sont à l’abri du besoin, et qu’ils travaillent sans excès et qu’ils sont protégés contre tout ce qui peut nuire à leur bien-être et à leur confort. La pollution a disparu, le sommeil est réparateur, la santé éclate sur tous les visages ; dans son paradis retrouvé, l’homme n’a plus motif de se plaindre et par conséquent, perd peu à peu son agressivité ; il vit désormais, heureux et fraternel, dans une société sans conflit.  Ce conte de fées, vers lequel, sans le dire, nous ne cessons de tendre, ce monde suave (美妙的) que nous tenons inconsciemment ou non, comme le but de notre démarche, est un ballon rose qu’il faut malheureusement crever, il est essentiel d’apercevoir à temps que ce paradis pour lequel nous croyons nous battre constitue un objectif tout à fait irréel, incompatible avec les données de base de la vie humaine. L’anxiété, la douleur morale, l’agressivité, la sensation d’être mal dans sa peau, le mécontentement sont à l’évidence des caractères propres de l’homme, qui ne dépendent que très partiellement des événements extérieurs. D’après le texte, le monde sans souffrance ________.
A、est réalisable
B.n’est pas réalisable
C.est réalisable mais ne dure pas

D、est compatible à la nature humaine
