Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 50 Not long ago, a mysterious Christmas card dropped through our mail slot. The envelope was addresse

23、d to a man named Raoul, who, I was relatively certain, did not live with us. The envelope wasn t sealed, so I opened it. The inside of the card was blank. Ed, my husband, explained that the card was both from and to the newspaper de-liveryman. His name was apparently Raoul, and Raoul wanted a holida

24、y tip. We were meant to put a check inside the card and then drop the envelope in the mail. When your services are rendered at 4 a. m. , you cant simply hang around, like a hotel bellboy expecting a tip. You have to be direct. So I wrote a nice holiday greeting to this man who, in my imagination, fi

25、res The New York Times from his bike aimed at our front door, causing more noise with mere newsprint than most people manage with sophisticated black market fireworks. With a start, I realized that perhaps the reason for the 4 a. m. wake-up noise was not ordinary rudeness but carefully executed spit

26、e: I had not tipped Raoul in Christmases past. I honestly hadn t realized I was supposed to. This was the first time hed used the card tactic. So I got out my checkbook. Somewhere along the line, holiday tipping went from an optional thank-you for a year of services to a Mafia-style protection racke

27、t(收取保护费的黑社会组织 ). Several days later, I was bringing our garbage bins back from the curb when I noticed an envelope taped to one of the lids. The outside of the envelope said MICKEY. It had to be another tip request, this time from our garbage collector. Unlike Raoul, Mickey hadnt enclosed his own Ch

28、ristmas card from me. In a way, I appreciated the directness. “I know you dont care how merry my Christmas is, and that s fine, “ the gesture said. “I want $30, or I 11 forget to empty your garbage bin some hot summer day. I put a check in the envelope and taped it back to the bin. The next morning,

29、 Ed noticed that the envelope was gone, though the trash hadnt yet been picked up: “Someone stole Mickey s tip!“ Ed was quite certain. He made me call the bank and cancel the check. But Ed had been wrong. Two weeks later, Mickey left a letter from the bank on our steps. The letter informed Mickey th

30、at the check, which he had tried to cash, had been cancelled. The following Tuesday morning, when Ed saw a truck outside, he ran out with his wallet. “Are you Mickey?“ The man looked at him with scorn. “Mickey is the garbageman. I am the recycling. “ Not only had Ed insulted this man by hinting that

31、 he was a garbageman, but he had obviously neglected to tip him. Ed ran back inside for more funds. Then he noticed that the driver of the truck had been watching the whole transaction. He peeled off another twenty and looked around, waving bills in the air. “Anyone else?“ Had we consulted the websi

32、te of the Emily Post Institute, this embarrassing breach of etiquette(礼节 )could have been avoided. Under “trash/recycling collectors“ in the institute s Holiday Tipping Guidelines, it says, “ $ 10 to $30 each. “ You may or may not wish to know that your pet groomer, hairdresser, mailman and UPS guy

33、all expect a holiday tip. 51 The newspaper deliveryman put a blank card inside the envelope because_. （ A） he forgot to write a few words on it （ B） he wanted the couple to send it back （ C） he used it to ask for a Christmas tip （ D） he was afraid of asking for a tip in person 52 From the passage, w

34、e learn that the author_. （ A） didn t like Raoul s way of delivering the paper （ B） didn t realize why Raoul delivered the paper that way （ C） didn t know that Raoul came very early in the morning （ D） didn t feel it necessary to meet Raoul when he came 53 According to the passage, the author felt_t

35、o give Raoul a holiday tip. （ A） excited （ B） delighted （ C） embarrassed （ D） forced 54 Which of the following is CORRECT about Mickey, the garbage collector? （ A） He wrote a letter to the couple afterwards. （ B） He failed to collect the money from the bank. （ C） He wanted the couple to send him a C

36、hristmas card. （ D） He collected both the cheek and the garbage that day. 55 Ed s encounter with the recycling team shows that_. （ A） Ed was desperate to correct his mistake. （ B） Ed only wanted to give money to Raoul. （ C） Ed was unwilling to tip the truck driver. （ D） Ed no longer wanted to give t

37、hem money. 55 At 18, Ashanthi DeSilva of suburban Cleveland is a living symbol of one of the great intellectual achievements of the 20th century. Bom with an extremely rare and usually fatal disorder that left her without a functioning immune system(the “bubble-boy disease“ , named after an earlier

38、victim who was kept alive for years in a sterile plastic tent), she was treated beginning in 1990 with a revolutionary new therapy that sought to correct the defect at its very source, in the genes of her white blood cells. It worked. Although her last gene-therapy treatment was in 1992, she is comp

39、letely healthy with normal immune function, according to one of the doctors who treated her, W. French Anderson of the University of Southern California. Researchers have long dreamed of treating diseases from hemophilia to cancer by replacing mutant genes with normal ones. And the dreaming may cont

40、inue for decades more. “There will be a gene-based treatment for essentially every disease, “ Anderson says, “within 50 years. “ It s not entirely clear why medicine has been so slow to build on Anderson s early success. The National Institutes of Health budget office estimates it will spend $ 432 m

41、illion on gene-therapy research in 2005, and there is no shortage of promising leads. The therapeutic genes are usually delivered through viruses that dont cause human disease. “The virus is sort of like a Trojan horse, “ says Ronald Crystal of New York Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical College. “T

42、he cargo is the gene. At the University of Pennsylvania s Abramson Cancer Center, immunologist Carl June recently treated HIV patients with a gene intended to help their cells resist the infection. At Cornell University, researchers are pursuing gene-based therapies for Parkinson s disease and a rar

43、e hereditary disorder that destroys children s brain cells. At Stanford University and the Children s Hospital of Philadelphia, researchers are trying to figure out how to help patients with hemophilia who today must inject themselves with expensive clotting drugs for life. Animal experiments have s

44、hown great promise. But somehow, things get lost in the translation from laboratory to patient. In human trials of the hemophilia treatment, patients show a response at first, but it fades over time. And the field has still not recovered from the setback it suffered in 1999, when Jesse Gelsinger, an

45、 18-year-old with a rare metabolic disorder, died after receiving an experimental gene therapy at the University of Pennsylvania. Some experts worry that the field will be tarnished further if the next people to benefit are not patients but athletes seeking an edge. This summer, researchers at the S

46、alk Institute in San Diego said they had created a “marathon mouse“ by implanting a gene that enhances running a-bility; already, officials at the World Anti-Doping Agency are preparing to test athletes for signs of “gene doping“. But the principle is the same, whether you re trying to help a health

47、y runner run faster or allow a muscular-dystrophy patient to walk. “Everybody recognizes that gene therapy is a very good idea, “ says Crystal. “And eventually it s going to work. 56 The case of Ashanthi Desilva is mentioned in the text to_. （ A） show the promise of gene-therapy （ B） give an example

48、 of modern treatment for fatal diseases （ C） introduce the achievement of Anderson and his team （ D） explain how gene-based treatment works 57 Anderson s early success has_. （ A） greatly speeded the development of medicine （ B） brought no immediate progress in the research of gene-therapy （ C） promi

49、sed a cure to every disease （ D） made him a national hero 58 Which of the following is true according to the text? （ A） Ashanthi needs to receive gene-therapy treatment constantly. （ B） Despite the huge funding, gene researches have shown few promises. （ C） Therapeutic genes are carried by harmless viruses. （ D） Gene-doping is encouraged by world agencies to help athletes get better scores. 59 The wor
