12、总题数：1，分数：71.00)During the Second World War, doctors tried to save severely burned pilots with grafts of donated skin. The grafted skin looked good for a few days, but then withered and died. Studies led by Peter Medawarwho won a 1960 Nobel Prize for his workfound that grafts of an individual“s own s

13、kin did work, while those of a donor did not. We now know that the donor skin grafts failed because the recipient“s immune system recognized the grafted skin as foreign and killed it. The same process leads to the rejection of donated organs. But how does our immune system learn what is self and wha

14、t is foreign? As immunologist Daniel Davis explains in The Compatibility Gene , it is all down to specific genesformally known as the major histocompatibility complex genes. Although our appearance, lifestyle and career path may make us feel unique, we are actually always one of a group: it is only

15、our compatibility genes that define us as true individuals. Davis provides a well-written and easy-to-read account of the sometimes complicated biology behind the crucial genes that affect our lives so profoundly. From early on in the evolution of life, individual cellsand later multicellular organi

16、smsdeveloped the ability to recognize that which was the same as them, and that which was different. Davis recounts how, when we are growing as fetuses, our compatibility genes train the immune system to recognize our own cells and tissues as “self“ and so, in healthy people, they know what not to a

17、ttack. Our cells are identified by the presence of unique surface molecules, coded for by the compatibility genes. Meanwhile, our immune systems make antibodies. These are randomly generated in a kind of lottery, which means they will be able to attack a great diversity of molecules, especially thos

18、e of pathogens. By chance, though, a few of these antibodies will also match the compatibility-gene molecules on our own cells. Leaving such antibodies around would be suicideliterally. To stop this, Darwinian-style selection comes into play within the immune system, eliminating any cells that produ

19、ce antibodies matching “self“.（分数：71.00）(1).Why did the grafted skin withere and die after a few days?（分数：14.20）A.Because a person“s immune system identifies the grafted skin which comes from other people.B.Because people have different immune systems, and these immune systems can not be blended tog

20、ether.C.Because the special features of grafted skin can not be adapted by the recipients.D.Because the recipients do not have powerful immune system for fighting diseases.(2).Why does the author say “Although our appearance, lifestyle and career path may make us feel unique, we are actually always

21、one of a group“?（分数：14.20）A.People may have same appearance, lifestyle or career path, which can not be the unique feature.B.Our appearance, lifestyle and career path can help us distinguish ourselves from a group.C.People may have different appearance, lifestyle or career path, but they still can n

22、ot be true individuals.D.Our appearance, lifestyle and career path define us to be a member of a group.(3).Which of the following does not help people develop the ability to recognize that which is different from them?（分数：14.20）A.Multicellular organisms.B.Individual cells.C.Compatibility genes.D.Sur

28、80 words. （分数：30.00）_正确答案：()解析：Positive Attitudes Are Essential to SuccessIn the picture, a person is asking for guidance. What the counselor tells him is that though aptitude matters, attitude is even more important. I quite agree with her. The great inventor Edison made thousands of inventions in

29、his life. However, he didn“t make them because he is extraordinarily smart. It was because he didn“t give up. When he failed, he tried another solution. He kept failing and trying, and finally he succeeded. Nobody is perfect. We all meet problems in our life, and we fail one time or another. It is o

30、ur attitude that determines how we deal with the failure. A negative person may think it“s too difficult and give up. In doing so, he loses the possibility to succeed. A positive person, on the other hand, will learn from the experience, and think about how to do it better. If he keeps trying, he wi

31、ll succeed. That is the power of a positive attitude.二、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Passage One(总题数：1，分数：71.00)“History is so immediate here,“ said Marie Martin, incoming president of the St. Michaels Museum“s board of directors. “Let“s face itSt. Michaels is a museum.
