  First，they removed skin ceils from the patients’ arms．The researchers grew the cells in the laboratory. They added copies of the needed gene taken from healthy people. Then they created hundreds of millions of genetically  changed cells．They placed these cells into the patients’ stomachs．After four months，the amount of blood clotting substance in the blood increased in four of the six patients．Some of the patients reported a decrease in bleeding problems．However，ten months later, the clotting substance was no longer in the patients’ blood.

The researchers say the study showed that gene treatment is safe for people with the most common kind of hemophilia．But others expressed concern about the treatment because the effects were only temporary.

1 Which of the following statements is NOT true about hemophilia?

A．It is caused by a fault gene and is passed from parents．

B．It suffers uncontrolled bleeding．

C．People with hemophilia don't have any physical damage and can lead normal lives.

A．they are treated with the missing clotting substance

B．they accept the scientists’ help

C．good copies of gene are placed in their bodies

C．people with hemophilia can recover completely with gene treatment

 D．hemophilia is a disease that can be treated easily

4. Which of the following can be the title of the passage?

A．Whether people with hemophilia can live a normal life．

B．How to control the bleeding for the patients．

C．How the researchers remove skin cells from patients and place these cells into the patients．

  D．The gene treatment to the hemophilia.

 

答案：C;A;B;D
解析：

1、歸納判斷題。從文中內(nèi)容可知，A、B、D三項(xiàng)關(guān)于這一疾病的描述都是正確的，只有c項(xiàng)不對(duì)，第一段說患者會(huì)有組織腫脹，關(guān)節(jié)和肌肉的永久損傷。

2、細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。第二段談到用基因療法，給人體補(bǔ)充缺少的讓血凝結(jié)的物質(zhì)，病人可以過正常生活。

3、細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。文中說科學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)基因療法是血友病的最好療法。

4、主旨大意題。全文圍繞血友病及基因療法展開敘述，顯然D項(xiàng)可以作為本文的標(biāo)題。

Have you ever heard a news reporter talk about DNA? Reporters talk about DNA found at the scene of a crime. They talk about police finding DNA “fingerprints.” Police sometimes use DNA as a clue to find out who committed the crime.

DNA is a substance（物質(zhì)） that makes up genes. Everything alive has genes. Plans have genes. Animals have genes. You have genes.

Genes are the basic units of heredity（遺傳）. Heredity means all the characteristics you inherit from your parents. You get your genes from your parents. You inherit half of your genes from your mother. You inherit half of your genes from your father.

Genes are a kind of code. A tree’s genes tell what shape its leaves will be. A cat’s genes tell what color its fur will be. Your genes tell what color your eyes will be. Your genes tell what color your hair will be. Everything about you comes from the code in your genes.

Genes line up on strands（鏈） called chromosomes（染色體） in cells. Everything alive is made up of cells. Chromosomes are in the center, or nucleus, of cells.

Different parts of you are made of different kinds of cells. Your muscles are made of muscle celIs. Your skin is made of skin cells. The code in your genes tells your body to make different kinds of cells. The genes in each cell tell the cell how to work. They tell the cell when to make new copies of itself.

An Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel first saw inherited patterns in pea plants. He experimented with pea plants in the 1860s. One of the things, or traits（特質(zhì)）， Mendel studied was what makes some pea plants tall and some short. He said that the traits must come from units of heredity passed from the parent plants. These units were later called genes.

In the mid-1900s, scientists discovered that genes are made of DNA. In the 1970s, scientists learned how to change DNA with genetic engineering. Scientists also learned that problems with certain genes cause diseases. Muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, and hemophilia are some genetic diseases-diseases caused by problems in genes. Today, scientists are looking for ways to cure genetic diseases by changing genes through a process called gene therapy.

What is DNA?

A. DNA is a kind of gene.

B.. DNA is a substance that makes up genes.

C. DNA is the basic unit of heredity.

D. DNA is a measure to protect crime.

Which of the following about genes is correct according to the passage?

A. Plants, animals and human beings have the same genes.

B. Half people inherit all genes from their mother, others from their father.

C. Genes decide the trees shapes, the cats’ fur color and our eyes’ color as well.

D. Genes will give you a code when you need them.

Where are genes?

A. Genes lining up on strands called chromosomes are in the center of cells.

B. Genes hide in everything alive in your body.

C. Genes can be nowhere but in your mind, controlling all your actions.

D. Genes travel in your body and help cope skin, muscle, and eyes.

An Austrian monk named Gregor Mendel         .

A. first saw inherited patterns in people

B. was interested in why plants were different

C. first called the units of heredity from parents genes

D. was the first who discovered genes

We can conclude that         .

A. scientists were less intelligent than monks in 1900s

B. some genes are bad and can cause diseases

C. we don’t need to worry about genetic diseases any longer

D. the discovery of genes may be of great help in our daily life
