1、Dung to DeathFields across Europe are contaminated with dangerous levels of the antibiotics given to farm animals. The drugs, which are in manure sprayed onto fields as fertilizers, could be getting into our food ａｎｄ　water, helping to create a new generation of antibiotic-resistant "superbugs". The warning comes from a researcher in Switzerlａｎｄ　who looked at levels of the drugs in farm slurry His findings are particularly shocking because Switzerlａｎｄ　is one of the few countries to have banned antibiotics as growth promoters in animal dead.Some 20,000 tons of antibiotics are used in the European ｕｎｉｏｎａｎｄ　the US each year. More than half are given to farm-animals to prevent disease ａｎｄ　promote growth. ______Most researchers assumed that humans become infected with the resistant strains by eating contaminated meat. But far more of the drugs end. up in manure than in meat products, says Stephen Mueller of the Swiss Federal Institute fｏｒEnvironmental Science ａｎｄ　Technology in Dubendorf. ａｎｄ　manure contains especiaily high levels of bugs that are resistant to antibiotics he says.With millions of tons of animals manure spread onto fields of crops such as wheat ａｎｄ　barley each year, this pathway seems an equally likely route fｏｒspreading resistance, he said. The drugs contaminate the crops, which are then eaten. They could also be leaching into tap water pumped from rocks beneath fertilized fields.Mueller is particularly concerned about aｇｒｏｕｐof antibiotics called sulphonamides. They do not easily degrade ｏｒdissolve in water. His analysis found that Swiss farm manure contains a high percentage of sulphonamides; each hectare of field could be contaminated with up to 1 kilogram of the drugs. This concentration is high enough to trigger the development of resistance among bacteria. But vets are not treating the issue seriously. There is growing concern at the extent to which drugs, including antibiotics, are polluting the environment. Many drugs given to humans are also excreted unchanged ａｎｄ　are not broken down by conventional sewage treatment.【单选题】

A.They do not easily degrade ｏｒdissolve in water.

B.ａｎｄ　manure contains especiaily high levels of bugs that are resistant to antibiotics he says.

C.Animal antibiotics is still an area to which insufficient attention has been paid

D.But recent research has found a direct link between the increased use of these farmyard drugs ａｎｄ　the appearance of antibiotic-resistant bugs that infect people.

E.His findings are particularly shocking because Switzerlａｎｄ　is one of the few countries to have banned antibiotics as growth promoters in animal dead.

F.They could also be leaching into tap water pumped from rocks beneath fertilized fields.

正确答案:D

答案解析:前两句讲的是抗生素在欧洲和美国的大量使用，选项D讲的是由此导致的不良后果，接上去是最合理不过的。But明确地表明了这一转折。

2、Better Control of TB Seen if a Faster Cure is FoundThe World Health Organization estimates that about one-third of all people are infected with bacteria that cause tuberculosis. Most times, the infection remains inactive. But each year about eight million people develop active cases of TB, usually in their lungs. Two million people die of it. The disease has increased with the spread of AIDS ａｎｄ　drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis. Current treatments take at least six months. Patients have to take a combination of several antibiotic drugs daily. But many people stop as soon as they feel better. Doing that can lead to an infection that resists treatment. Public health experts agree that a faster-acting cure fｏｒtuberculosis would be more effective. Now a study estimates just how ______ it might be. A professｏｒof international health at Harvard University led the study. Joshua Salomon says a shorter treatment program would likely mean not just more patients cured. It would also mean fewer infectious patients who can pass on their infection to others. The researchers developed a mathematical model to examine the effects of a two-month treatment plan. They tested the model with current TB conditions in Southeast Asia. The scientists found that a two-month treatment could prevent about twenty percent of new cases. ａｎｄ　it might prevent about twenty-five percent of TB deaths. The model shows that these reductions would take place between two thousａｎｄ　twelve ａｎｄ　two thousａｎｄ　thirty. That is, if a faster cure is developed ａｎｄ　in wide use by two thousａｎｄ　twelve. The World Health Organization developed the DOTS program in nineteen ninety. DOTS is Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course. Health workers watch tuberculosis patients take their daily pills to make sure they continue treatment. Earlier this year, an international partnership of organizations announced a plan to expａｎｄ　the DOTS program. The ten-year plan also aims to finance research into new TB drugs. The four most common drugs used now are more than forty years old. The Global Alliance fｏｒTB Drug Development says its long-term goal is a treatment that could work in as few as ten doses.【单选题】

A.effective

B.ineffective

C.expensive

D.inexpensive

正确答案:A

答案解析:只要用心注意上面那句话就可以很容易地找到答案，显然本句想说“现在有一项新的研究想评估这种速效治疗剂究竟效力有多大”。

A.refer

B.apply

C.lead

D.amount

正确答案:C

答案解析:空白处后面有介词to，虽然这几个选项均可与to连用，但意思各不相同。refer to:谈及、参考；apply to：接洽、适用于；lead to:导致；amount to:合计、总共达……。只有选择lead才能使本句意思完整、准确。

4、Seeing Red Means Danger AheadThe colｏｒred often means danger ａｎｄ　by paying attention, accidents can be prevented. In the future, the colｏｒred also may help ______ danger at construction sites. Thanks to new work by engineers, bridge supports ｏｒother kinds of materials could one day contain a colｏｒswitching material. It will turn red before a structure collapses ｏｒfalls apart. The secret behind the colｏｒswitching material is a particular type of molecule. A molecule is aｇｒｏｕｐof atoms held together by chemical bonds. Molecules come at all shapes ａｎｄ　sizes, ａｎｄ　make up everything. You can see, touch ｏｒfeel. How a molecule behaves depends on what kinds of atoms it contains, ａｎｄ　how they\'re held together. When a polymer (聚合物) containing a colｏｒswitching molecule called a mechanophore (机械响应性聚合物) which is about to break, it produce a color. When a polymer with mechanophore molecules becomes "injured" ｏｒweak, one of the mechanophore bonds breaks ａｎｄ　the material turns red. "It\'s a really simple detection method. "says Nancy Sottos, one of the scientists who worked on the project. Sottos ａｎｄ　her team tested the colｏｒswitching polymers in their lab. The test results proved encouraging. There is a way to get rid of the colｏｒlight when a bright light is shone on the mechanophore. The broken bond is fixed ａｎｄ　the red colｏｒdisappears. This "self-healing" may be a problem fｏｒengineers. They need to use the colｏｒchanger in big construction projects that will be outside in sunlight. ａｎｄ　sunlight will make the mechanophore\'s warming system useless. Sottos ａｎｄ　her fellow scientists still have a lot of work to do before the colｏｒswitching molecules can be used outside the lab. 【单选题】

A.throw

B.prevent

C.create

D.keep

正确答案:B

答案解析:原文中用also may help，说明应填与上文prevent相似的词句。throw：投掷；create：创造；keep：保持，都与之不符，所以是prevent。

5、Obviously these people can be relied on in a crisis.【单选题】

A.lived on

B.depended on

C.believed in

D.joined in

正确答案:B

答案解析:显然这些人在危机关头值得依靠。本题有一定难度，考查的是基本意义，C项的干扰最大，有些考生因受汉语思维影响而选了C，rely on和depend on都有“依靠”意思，是近义词，常用过去式，C项believe in指“相信”，和答案意义有差异，最佳答案是B。
