Having a good relationship with friends

【4】.

22、Could a new treatment developed by the US company Lilly mean “the beginning of the end” of Alzheimer’s? Could we even cure it some day? These are headlines and questions swirling (流传) around after news of a new drug, called donanemab, showed promising results in phase-3 trials.

The brain science behind Alzheimer’s is complex, but CT and MRJ scans suggest that poisonous changes occur in the brain, including the abnormal build-up of proteins called amyloid plaques and tau tangles. The damage starts in the parts of the brain essential for forming memories but then spreads throughout the organ, with brain tissue shrinking significantly.

Developing treatments for Alzheimer’s has been a challenge, with almost 20 years passing with no new drugs. But in the last year, two new ones have emerged: donanemab and lecanemab. Neither are cures or magic bullets for the disease, but they do address key symptoms. They target the amyloid proteins that can accumulate in the brain and damage neurons, slowing down its progression.

While this news is exciting, there are major caveats. One is whether it will ever become available on the NHS. The cost is estimated to be about £20,000 per person per year of treatment.

Another is the serious side effects: in the study, brain swelling occurred in 24% of participants and brain bleeding occurred in 31.4% on the drug compared with 13.6% in the placebo (安慰剂) group. There were also three deaths during the trial.

Part of the problem for me, as an academic, in assessing the drug is that the full results of the trial haven’t yet been shared publicly or published in a peer-review journal. We cannot access the full data or examine the trial yet, and there is always a motivation for private companies to overstate the effectiveness of new drugs. Trial results need to be assessed by an independent body of experts.

While it is unlikely to change clinical practice until at least 2025, the news of donanemab is again an indication that science is continuing to make progress when it comes to treating the major causes of illness and death, even one related to the highly complex inner workings of the brain, So, there are caveats and the need for caution, but these new drugs are indeed the grounds for that rare thing these days: hope.

【1】What can we learn about Alzheimer’s from the passage?

A．There exists a new drug to cure it completely.

B．Most people will develop Alzheimer’s when they are old.

C．It is caused by the accumulation of some proteins in the brain.

D．It results from the loss of memories as people get older.

【2】What does the underlined word “caveats” mean in paragraph 4?

A．Warnings.

B．Discussions.

C．Debates.

D．Weaknesses.

【3】What is the problem of the new drug according to the author as an academic?

A．It has serious side effects such as brain bleeding and deaths.

B．The effectiveness may be blown up without fair assessment.

C．The cost of the new drug is out of reach for ordinary people.

D．There is no possibility for new drugs to be admitted into the NHS.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the new drug?

A．Approving.

B．Doubtful.

C．Unclear.

D．Indifferent.

23、Many years ago, I met a man whose unique psychology helped me to get away from a life of struggle and uneasiness for great happiness, for peace of mind, and for a measure of success I otherwise would not have attained.

He was George Robert White, who lost his parents at eight, badly off for a long time. However, his God-given beliefs made him both a material and a spiritual millionaire at thirty. As a young man, Mr. White took over the leadership of a small plant, and throughout his career he donated a large part of his net profits to charity. Despite his unusual business practice, he built that tiny concern into a world-famous corporation, and became the multi-million-dollar manufacturer.

Before I met him, my path to success was the ordinary road over which most American businessmen travel—endless hours of hard work, social contacts, wise investments. But where was the resulting happiness that my material gain was supposed to have afforded me? I discovered that I had no more peace of mind.

I took the advice of Mr. White to open the pathway to happiness and freedom of mind. “Personal and business success, built upon materialism alone, are empty shells over disappointment and saddened lives,” he emphasized, “Cast your bread upon the waters and it will come back in abundance. ” If we are to be happy, to be successful in every aspect of the world, and to live truly full lives, we must share ourselves, as well as our material gain, with our fellow men.

Since Mr. White’s death, I have made great efforts, as his successor, to stick to his code of morality. Two dollars out of every three earned by our corporation is shared with others. My reward and my blessings have come to me in the form of personal satisfaction and peace of mind that had been foreign to me.

【1】What was Mr. White’s unusual business practice?

A．His concern about the poor.

B．His leadership of a small plant

C．His way to deal with the net profits.

D．His becoming a millionaire at thirty.

【2】How was the author’s life before he met Mr. White?

A．Busy and uneasy.

B．Wealthy and full.

C．Successful and happy.

D．Struggling and hopeful.

【3】What was Mr. White’s advice?

A．Be a breadwinner.

B．Be ready to share.

C．Build personal reputation.

D．Seek material abundance.

【4】What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?

A．To call back his own life.

B．To introduce Mr. White’s lifestyle.

C．To show his concern about charity.

D．To express his gratitude to Mr. White.

24、Abbey Ahern, 34, who lives in Oklahoma, was shocked and heartbroken when she was told at her 19-week scan that her daughter had the incurable illness anencephaly (无脑畸形) which meant she would not live beyond a few hours. It ripped her heart out.

According to the National Institutes of Health, the illness means the baby has an underdeveloped brain and incomplete skull (颅骨). Approximately one in 10,000 babies in the US are born with anencephaly, most of which result in early death.

As a result, Abbey and her pilot husband Robert, also 34, decided to have a live birth so that they could spend time with their daughter and donate her organs — making Annie the first newborn baby donor in the state.

Afterwards they asked the doctor for the gender of their unborn child and decided to name her on the spot. They named her easily: Annie, which means, “grace”. Abbey said: “Carrying a seriously-ill baby to term was by far the most difficult thing I have ever done…For us, even in the middle of our terrible heartbreak we were able to see so much beauty.” The family spent just 14 hours and 58 minutes with Annie before she passed away.

Her organs were not available for transplant (移植) because her oxygen levels were too low — which Abbey said was “disappointing”— but they were able to donate her heart valves (瓣膜) and some of her organs could be used for research. She said: “Annie’s story is one of hope. I think it shows people that in the middle of tragedy, there can be beauty.”

【1】How did Abbey feel at the news about her daughter firstly?

A．Surprised and upset.

B．Worried and determined.

C．Relieved and regretful.

D．Curious and angry.

【2】What was Abbey and her husband’s decision?

A．Keeping Annie in hospital.

B．Stopping giving birth to Annie.

C．Giving away Annie’s organs.

D．Naming her daughter after beauty.

【3】Why were Annie’s organs not used for transplant?

A．Because of diseases.

B．Because of low temperature.

C．Because of heart valves.

D．Because of lack of oxygen.

【4】What is the purpose of the text?

A．To call on people to donate organs.

B．To share a touching story with readers.

C．To inform people of what anencephaly is.

D．To show what a tragedy the story is.
