17、e. Nearly a third of parents say they feel squeezed into their homes but cannot afford to move to a bigger property, a report (27) today.Twenty-nine percent say “their property is too small to (28) the size of their family“-rising to 40 percent for those 34 and under.One in four children is “forced
18、to share“ a bedroom, according to the FindaP website, part of a digital division of the Daily Mail and General Trust.Property analyst Samantha Baden said, “ (29) remains a key issue for families, with the average cost of a three-bedroom home around 193,000. “A recent report, from investment firm LV,

Anyone over 21 also needs their own room.The report comes as (34) figures, published yesterday by the Land Registry, revealing house prices are f

22、y (成熟的). A man reaches the maturity of his reasoning powers and mental (36) hardly before the age of twenty-eight; a woman at eighteen. And then, too, in the case of woman, it is only reason of a sort-very niggard in its (37) . That is why women remain children their whole life long; never seeing an
23、ything but what is quite close to them, cleaving (忠于) to the present moment, taking appearance for reality, and preferring (38) to matters of the first importance. For it is by virtue of his reasoning faculty that man does not live in the present only, but looks about him and considers the past and
24、the future; and this is the (39) of prudence (谨慎), as well as of that care and anxiety which so many people exhibit. Both the advantages and the disadvantages which this (40) are shared by the woman to a smaller extent because of her weaker power of reasoning. She may, in fact, be described as (41)
25、short-sighted, because, while she has an (42) understanding of what lies quite close to her, her field of vision is narrow and does not reach to what is (43) ; so that things which are absent, or past, or to come, have much less effect upon woman than upon men.This is the reason why women are more i
26、nclined to be (44) , and sometimes carry their (45) to a length that borders upon madness. In their hearts, women think it is mens business to earn money and theirs to spend it-if possible during their husbands life, but, at any rate, after his death. The very fact that their husband hands them over
27、 his earnings for purposes of housekeeping, strengthens them in this belief.Aextravagant ItriflesBorientation JinvolvesCintellectually KoriginDinclination LconfidentialEadvantages MfacultiesFremote NabsolutelyGintuitive OdimensionsHexcludes（分数：35.50）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填

29、ossible. On the surface, that sounds like a good thing, and it is in many respects. But while knowledge may be power, genetic testing also brings with it tremendous physical and psychological collapse.BIn the past two decades, the number of genetic tests available has jumped from a few hundred to ne
30、arly 3,000. Rebecca Nagy, president of the National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC, recalls that when she entered the field 15 years ago, it took a year to get the results of a BRCA test. Today, you get them back in a week or two.CAs the cost of testing declines, says Lawrence Brody, an investi
31、gator with the National Institutes of Human Genome Research Institute. medicine is moving toward “multiplex testing for lots of things at once.“ Were at the point, he explains, where sequencing a persons entire exome (外显子组) can be done for somewhere in the neighborhood of i,000. “Whereas before it w
32、ould have been really bizarre to have someones entire genome sequenced because it cost about the same as the GDP of several small countries. With exome sequencing, a patient may go in with questions about his prostate (前列腺) and come out with a report showing increased risks for everything from blood
33、 clots (凝块) to kidney disease.DSuch data points are known as “incidental findings,“ and they are at the heart of the hottest ethical debate now prevailing in the field, says Nagy. “What results do you disclose to someone and what results do you withhold? And do you give patients that choice?“ One co
34、mmonly cited example: what happens when a toddlers exome is sequenced to determine the cause of a developmental delay and the lab discovers that the child has the BRCA1 mutation (变异) ? Should the lab withhold that information? What about the pediatrician?ENagy explains that “a basic principle of gen
35、etics is that patients should have autonomy“-meaning the right to choose what they do and do not want to know. But in March, the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics issued a statement contending that, in the case of certain specific harmful and active genes, doctors have an ethical obl
36、igation to alert patients to the discovered risks. Balancing this “duty to warn“ with an individuals right to autonomy is tricky enough on its own. But there are other complicating factors to consider. What if disorders are likely to impact other family members? And what about all the mutations that
37、 will pop up but that we dont yet understand? “The menu is probably more vast in terms of what you can look at than people are prepared for, and the results will contain more uncertainty than people are prepared for.FSocial worker Katie Berry has a front-row view of all the issues that this new medi
38、cal landscape is raising. Through Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York, Berry counsels men and women at high risk for Huntingtons (亨延顿正), an inherited neurodegenerative disorder (退行性神经紊乱) that typically appears in midlife with some brutal combination of physical, cognitive, and psychiatric dec
39、line. A person with the Huntingtons gene can expect to get sick at some point down the road. There is no cure and, unlike with breast cancer, no preventive measures beyond maximizing general health with the aim of delaying onset.GBerry works solely with individuals not yet experiencing symptoms. Som
40、e have already been gene-tested. Others know that the disease runs in their family and are hesitating about whether to get tested-and when. With no preventive options available for Huntingtons, the question of when to test is often dictated by looming decisions about marriage or parenthood. Most of
41、the patients who come to Berry are in their 30s or early 40s. “People who are in their teens and early 20s tend not to be thinking about these things,“ she explains. “Theres a level of denial in very young adults.“HBut as people start pairing up and settling down, the stakes of not knowing get highe
42、r. (People with the Huntingtons gene have a 50 percent chance of passing it to a child.) “They know there is this sword of Damocles hanging over their heads,“ says Berry. But until the test is done, they can cling to the hope that they escaped the genetic bullet. “They think, Its possible Ill never
43、get it. Its possible I can continue to live the life Im living now, “ she says. “Knowing creates a whole other reality-a hugely different reality.“IIndeed, the news that ones genome contains a potential time bomb presents numerous, extremely painful psychological hurdles. Breaking the news to family
44、 can be a particularly rough part of the process, and not simply because of the heartbreak it brings loved ones. Learning that a family member has a particular mutation can suddenly force brothers and sisters, children and parents to confront unsettling questions about their own genes-questions that
45、 many people would prefer not to have raised at all.JTo facilitate sharing, medical facilities are increasingly providing aid and guidance. Visvanathans clinic invites patients to have family come in and talk with the staff. “We try to take some of that burden,“ she explains. Hospitals at places lik
46、e Georgetown University and the University of Pennsylvania often provide patients with letter templates tailored specifically toward informing family.KThen theres the long-term challenge of living with a genetic ghost hiding in the background. At times, the anxiety can cause great damage, says Berry
47、. “People talk frequently about bow they go through periods-and I suspect its true of anyone who faces a chronic illness or potentially fatal disease-periods that last days, weeks, months, or even years when theres a hyper-alertness about the body.“ Every twitch, twinge, or tickle spurs a raw terror that the illness has begun to take hold. “People say theyre convinced they have the disease even though theres nothing obviously symptomatic about them,“ Berry says.LFor the medical community, addressing these challenges will mean changing medical-school curricula and investing in
