Across the world, countless amounts of time and money have been spent on researching a way to stop this terrible disease. But now, it seems like the answer could have been inside our own bodies the whole time.Recently, the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) in the US, a government agency that’s responsible for healthcare, approved a new form of gene therapy(疗法) that could mean the end of a certain type of cancer.The therapy allows scientists to “train” the immune(有免疫力的) cells of sick patients to fight leukemia(白血病) —a form of blood cancer that mostly affects young people.The exciting new treatment works by removing healthy immune cells from the patient, known as T-cells, which are then changed to be able to “hunt down” cancer cells.The cells are then put back into the patient before they begi n to get rid of the patient’s leukemia over time, similar to how the body fights off other illnesses.“This is truly an exciting new day for cancer patients,” Louis J. DeGennaro, president of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, said in a news release.Up until now, a long and painful marrow transplant(骨髓移植) was the only option for many leukemia patients.In this procedure, healthy blood cells are taken from a donator and placed into the sick patient, who also has to go through chemotherapy (化疗) to allow their body to adjust to the new cells.But with a recovery rate of around 83% — according to a news release published by the FDA —it’s hoped that the days of painful trips to the hospital, or even death, are over for leukemia sufferers.“We’re entering a new frontier in medical innovation(创新) with the ability to reprogram a patient’s own cells to attack a deadly cancer,” FDA representative Scott Gottlieb said in the release. “New technologies such as gene and cell therapies hold the potential to transform medi cine and our ability to treat and even cure many incurable illnesses.”1、What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A．To compare different ways of curing leukemia.B．To report on a breakthrough in cancer treatment.C．To explore the potential of gene and cell therapies.D．To show scientists’ efforts in search of a cure for cancer.2、How does the new treatment to fight leukemia work?A．By using changed T-cells to destroy cancer cells.B．By replacing sick blood cells with healthy ones.C．By removing sick blood cells during marrow transplant.D．By using chemotherapy to improve the patient’s immune system.3、What can be inferred about the new therapy for leukemia sufferers?A．It can save them many more trips to the hospital.B．It can improve their ability to fight off all kinds of cancer.C．It can give them a better chance of survival and recovery.D．It can reduce their pain in the process of marrow transplant.4、What is Scott Gottlieb’s attitude toward gene and cell therapies?A．Doubtful. B．Optimistic. C．Worried. D．Casual.24．（8分）JOBS362、The applicants for______have to be able to work at weekends.

It wasn’t its search engine that was 25．attacked or its advertising platform or even its social network. Google+. Instead, it was a building.Two web security experts hacked (侵入) into its Wharf 7 office in Sydney, Australia, through Google’s building management system (BMS). One of them, Billy Rios, says, “My colleague and I have lot of experience in web security, but it is not something that people couldn’t learn. Once you understand how the system works, it is very simple.”They found the system on Shodan, a search engine that lists devices connected to the Internet, and then ran it through their own software to identify who owned the building. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had no immoral purpose and just informed Google about what they found.According to Mr Rios, who runs security company Whitescope, there are 50, 000 buildings currently connected to the Internet, including research institutes, churches and hospitals, and 2, 000 of those are online with password protection, Martyn Thomas, a professor of IT a t Gresham College in the UK, says, “It is beyond doubt that attempts to attack building management systems are happening all the time.”Making a building smart generally means connecting the systems that control heating, lighting and security to the Internet and the wider corporate network. There was a strong reason for doing this, said Andrew Kelly, principal security consultant at defence company Qinetiq.“Energy savings are the biggest factor in connecting building management systems to the corporate network,” he says. “It gives those who run the building better control and offers between 20% to 50% in energy savings,” he adds.But it also makes them less secure. And if any of these feels like a Hollywood film, think again.1、How did Billy Rios and his co lleague hack Google’s building?A．They invented a search engine and connected it to Google’s building.B．They worked for Google and mastered how the building worked.C．They used Google’s BMS to find out the owner of the building,D．They connected their own software to the building to run Google.2、In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had the intention of ________.A．analyzing some immoral problemsB．explaining the reasons for energy savingsC．entering Google’s building to save more energyD．te lling Google about the Wharf 7 office’s hidden danger3、What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?A．The building management systems of some buildings are in danger.B．There are many researchers contributing a lot to web security.C．The attack on building management systems happens all over the world.D．There are too many buildings connected to the Internet to be managed well.4、What is the author’s attitude towards the way of the energy savings of some buildings?A．Ambiguous. B．Negative. C．Indifferent. D．Favorable.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．26．（30分）On a Saturday morning, my left arm went numb, and I felt dizzy.

But, 10 telling me what he had lost, Jackson shared what I would 11 . “Do not give up on yourself. All the hard work is worth it.” he wrote.And the advice kept on coming. He told me to 12 the therapy on the hospital’s “grown-up” floor, where “they make you wo rk hard and you get lots of things back fast.” Here I was, a grown man and a senator of Illinois, getting13 from a young boy I had 14 met.After a few weeks of correspondence(通信), I arranged for us to meet. He seemed 15 at first, but all the awkwardness quickly 16 . Jackson showed me how he could run, and I immediately felt 17 . One thing Iparticularly 18 was the energy and dignity radiating from him.As for my recovery, it 19 just as Jackson said it would. After a year of intense physical therapy, I climbed to the top of the Capitol and returned to work. With every step I took, I thought of Jackson and his 20 . Whenever I was tired or discouraged, I thought of him, the world’s strongest boy.1、A．decision B．examination C．description D．discussion2、A．hope B．sight C．memory D．control3、A．unbelievable B．ordinary C．significant D．controversial4、A．right B．left C．single D．only5、A．effect B．consequence C．reality D．conclusion6、A．speak B．stand C．run D．climb7、A．pessimistic B．optimistic C．generous D．realistic8、A．efficient B．satisfactory C．discouraging D．amazing9、A．book B．poster C．slogan D．letter10、A．beyond B．by C．without D．except11、A．experience B．discover C．lose D．gain12、A．attend B．reject C．end D．escape13、A．information B．knowledge C．advice D．freedom14、A．occasionally B．seldom C．ever D．never15、A．confident B．nervous C．upset D．desperate16、A．broke out B．came over C．melted away D．turned up17、A．inspired B．relaxed C．frustrated D．confused18、A．recommended B．admired C．doubted D．obtained19、A．came B．fell C．stayed D．disappeared20、A．wisdom B．intelligence C．strength D．Lesson第二节（每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
