You should make the correct choice. 27 In medicine, blood type is the classification of red blood cells by the presence of spe

16、cific substances on their surface. In the early part of the 20th century, physicians discovered that blood transfusions often failed because the blood type of the recipient was not compatible with that of the donor. In 1901 the Austrian doctor Karl Landsteiner classified blood types and discovered t

17、hat the hereditary blood factor is of great importance in blood transfusions because it creates reactions that can threaten the life of newborn infants. The four blood types are known as A, B, AB, and O. Blood type A contains red blood cells that have a substance A on their surface. This type of blo

18、od also contains an antibody directed against substance B, which can be found on the red cells of persons with blood type B. Type B blood contains the opposite things.

19、er substance is present on the red cells, but the individual is capable of forming antibodies directed against red cells containing substance A or B, If blood type A is transfused into a person with B type blood, anti-A antibodies in the recipient will destroy the transfused A red cells. Because O t

20、ype blood has neither substance on its red cells, it can be given successfully to almost any person. Persons with blood type AB have no antibodies and can receive any of the four types of blood; thus blood types O and AB are called universal donors and universal recipients, respectively. Other hered

21、itary(遗传的 ) blood-group systems have subsequently been discovered, for example, the Rh blood factor. And nowadays more than twenty additional blood types have been discovered. Their importance is obvious. 27 In the early part of the 20th century, physicians discovered that blood transfusions often f

27、 human-like ability, but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace we can be less sure.

29、. In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves. Silicon will have ended carbons long control. And we will no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe. As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines

30、through economies of scale we may use them to expand our frontiers, first on earth through their ability to withstand environments, harmful to ourselves. Thus, deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined. Further ahead, by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technolog
