【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Medical drugs sometimes cause more damage than they cure. One solution to this problem is to put the drugs inside a capsule,protecting them from the body-and the body from them-until they can be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger(引发)this release,including changing temperature,acidity,and so on. But triggers can come with their own risks-burns,for example. Now,researchers in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date:shining near-infrared light(NIR,近红外线)on the drug in the capsule.

The idea of using light to liberate the drug in the capsule isn't new. Researchers around the globe have developed polymers(聚合物)and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb either ultraviolet(UV,紫外线)or visible light. But tissues also readily absorb UV and visible light,which means the drug release can be triggered only near the skin,where the light can reach the capsule. NIR light largely passes through tissues,so researchers have tried to use it as a trigger. But few compounds(化合物)absorb NIR well and go through chemical changes.

That changed last year when Adah Almutairi,a chemist at the University of Califomia,San Diego,reported that she and her colleagues had designed a polymer that breaks down when it absorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIRabsorbing group called onitrobenzyl(ONB).When they catch the light,ONB groups fall off the polymer,leading to its breakdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber,and it could be poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer.

So Almutairi and her colleagues reported /span>creating a new material for capsules that's even better. This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的)components that make it highly unstable in its polymeric form,a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols,they cap each reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light,the reactive groups are exposed and break the long polymer into two short chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown,potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. What's more,Almutairi says,Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells.

【1】According to the passage,which of the following could be the best trigger?

A.Temperature change.

B.NIR light.

C.Acidity change.

D.UV light.

【2】Why is ONB unsatisfactory?

A.It breaks down when it absorbs NIR light.

B.It falls off the polymer and triggers drug release.

C.It has not come onto the market up till now.

D.It is not effective enough and could be poisonous.

【3】Which word can be used to complete the following process of changes?

A. protected

B.formed

C.exposed

D.combined

【答案】【1】B

【2】D

【3】C

【解析】【1】推理判断题。第一段第4句But triggers can come with their own risks说明引发药物释放的因素可能具有危险。Now,researchers in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date:shining near-infrared light(NIR)on the drug in the capsule说明NIR可能是最好的引发物。

【2】推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber,and it could be poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer 和最后一段最后一句Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells.可知选D。

【3】推理判断题。根据最后一段后三句可推断选C。

New English Tests Are Better, but Harder

Public Speaking Training

·Get a coach

【1 , so get help. Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.

·Focus on positives

Any training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well. 2 , so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.

3 If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don't walk away! Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about. 4 . As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.

You are a special person not a clone.Most importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. 5 . Your training course should help you bring out your personality, not try to turn you into someone you're not.

A. You aren't like anybody else

B. You already do lots of things well

C. Turn your back on too many rules

D. Check the rules about dos and don't

E. Whatever the presentation, public speaking is tough

F .The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleep

G. So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse
