15.Darek Fidyka,a 38-year-old Bulgarian,had been paralyzed (癱瘓的) from the chest down for four years after a knife attack.Scientists from Britain and Poland took cells from his nose,transplanted (移植) them into his back and re-grew his spinal cord (脊髓).Now he can walk and even drive a car.The doctors were delighted but said it was the first step in a long journey.
The breakthrough came after 40 years of research by Professor Geoff Raisman,who found that cells had the possibility to repair damage to nasal (鼻腔的) nerves,the only part of the nervous system that constantly re-grows."The idea was to take something from an area where the nervous system can repair itself and put it into an area that doesn't repair itself,"Professor Raisman said.
Polish doctors injected (注射) the nasal cells into Mr.Fidyka's spinal cord above the injury and used some nerves from his ankle to form a bridge across the damaged tissue.The nasal cells appear to have caused the spinal nerves to repair themselves.
Professor Raisman achieved this with rats in the late 1990's,but this is his greatest success."I think the moment of discovery for me was Christmas in 1997 when I first saw a rat,which couldn't control its hand,put its hand over to me.That was an exciting moment,because I realized then that my belief that the nervous system could be repaired was true."
Doctors chose the easiest case for their first attempt-it might not work for others.But there is real sense of hope that an idea once thought impossible has been realized.
David Nicholls,who helped provide money for the breakthrough,said information about the breakthrough would be made available to researchers across the globe.
"What you've got to understand is that for three million paralyzed people in the world today,the world looks a totally brighter place than it did yesterday,"he said.

分析 本文通過一例成功的手術(shù)向我們介紹了一項(xiàng)新的醫(yī)學(xué)發(fā)明,把鼻腔細(xì)胞移植到其它受損器官幫助修復(fù),治愈癱瘓病人.

解答 22.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段第一句話中的…who found that cells had the possibility to repair damage to nasal (鼻腔的) nerves,the only part of the nervous system that constantly re-grows可知鼻腔細(xì)胞神經(jīng)能夠修補(bǔ)受傷的部位,并且能再生長(zhǎng).因此答案選A.
23.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題. 根據(jù)文章第三段Polish doctors injected (注射) the nasal cells into Mr Fidyka's spinal cord above the injury and used some nerves from his ankle to form a bridge across the damaged tissue.The nasal cells appear to have caused the spinal nerves to repair themselves可知利用鼻腔細(xì)胞移植,可以幫助脊髓神經(jīng)自我修復(fù),使Darek Fidyka能夠行走和開車,因此答案選D.
24.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第四段第一句話Professor Raisman achieved this with rats in the late 1990's,but this is his greatest success.可知是通過小白鼠的實(shí)驗(yàn)才得到了啟發(fā),有了醫(yī)學(xué)發(fā)現(xiàn),因此答案選D.
25.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章最后一段What you've got to understand is that for three million paralyzed people in the world today,the world looks a totally brighter place than it did yesterday可知David Nicholls對(duì)這項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)充滿希望,希望能治愈更多的癱瘓病人,現(xiàn)在的世界比昨天更光明.因此答案選B.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).
