内容摘要: The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels.★Why did a promising heart drug fail? Doomed drug highlights complications of meddling with cholesterol.1.The failure of a high-profile cholesterol drug has thrown a spotlight on the complicated machinery that regulates cholesterol levels.But many researchers remain confident that drugs to boost levels of 'good' cholesterol are still one of the most promising means to combat spiralling heart disease.2.Drug company Pfizer announced on 2 December that it was cancelling all clinical trials of torcetrapib, a drug designed to raise heart-protective high-density lipoproteins(HDLs).In a trial of 15000 patients, a safety board found that more people died or suffered cardiovascular problems after taking the drug plus a cholesterol-lowering statin than those in a control group who took the statin alone.3.The news came as a kick in the teeth to many cardiologists because earlier tests in animals and people suggested it would lower rates of cardiovascular disease.“There have been no red flags to my knowledge,” says John Chapman, a specialist in lipoproteins and atherosclerosis at the National Institute for Health and Medical Research(INSERM)in Paris who has also studied torcetrapib.“This cancellation came as a complete shock.” 4.Torcetrapib is one of the most advanced of a new breed of drugs designed to raise levels of HDLs, which ferry cholesterol out of artery-clogging plaques to the liver for removal from the body.Specifically, torcetrapib blocks a protein called cholesterol ester transfer protein(CETP), which normally transfers the cholesterol from high-density lipoproteins to low density, plaque-promoting ones.Statins, in contrast, mainly work by lowering the 'bad' low-density lipoproteins.Under pressure 5.Researchers are now trying to work out why and how the drug backfired, something that will not become clear until the clinical details are released by Pfizer.One hint lies in evidence from earlier trials that it slightly raises blood pressure in some patients.It was thought that this mild problem would be offset by the heart benefits of the drug.But it is possible that it actually proved fatal in some patients who already suffered high blood pressure.If blood pressure is the explanation, it would actually be good news for drug developers because it suggests that the problems are specific to this compound.Other prototype drugs that are being developed to block CETP work in a slightly different way and might not suffer the same downfall.6.But it is also possible that the whole idea of blocking CETP is flawed, says Moti Kashyap, who directs atherosclerosis research at the VA Medical Center in Long Beach, California.When HDLs excrete cholesterol in the liver, they actually rely on LDLs for part of this process.So inhibiting CETP, which prevents the transfer of cholesterol from HDL to LDL, might actually cause an abnormal and irreversible accumulation of cholesterol in the body.“You're blocking a physiologic mechanism to eliminate cholesterol and effectively constipating the pathway,” says Kashyap.Going up 7.Most researchers remain confident that elevating high density lipoproteins levels by one means or another is one of the best routes for helping heart disease patients.But HDLs are complex and not entirely understood.One approved drug, called niacin, is known to both raise HDL and reduce cardiovascular risk but also causes an unpleasant sensation of heat and tingling.Researchers are exploring whether they can bypass this side effect and whether niacin can lower disease risk more than statins alone.Scientists are also working on several other means to bump up high-density lipoproteins by, for example, introducing synthetic HDLs.“The only thing we know is dead in the water is torcetrapib, not the whole idea of raising HDL,” says Michael Miller, director of preventive cardiology at the University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore.(613 words nature)
Questions 1-7 This passage has 7 paragraphs 1-7.Choose the correct heading for each paragraph from the list of headings below.Write the correct number i-ix in boxes 1-7 on your answer sheet.List of Headings i.How does torcetrapib work? ii.Contradictory result prior to the current trial iii.One failure may possibly bring about future success iv.The failure doesn’t lead to total loss of confidence v.It is the right route to follow vi.Why it’s stopped
vii.They may combine and theoretically produce ideal result viii.What’s wrong with the drug
ix.It might be wrong at the first place
Example answer Paragraph 1 iv 1. Paragraph 2 vi 2. Paragraph 3 ii 3. Paragraph 4 vii 4. Paragraph 5 ix 5. Paragraph 6 viii 6. Paragraph 7 iv
Questions 7-13 Match torcetrapib,HDLs,statin and CETP with their functions(Questions 8-13)..Write the correct letter A, B, C or D in boxes 8-13 on your answer sheet.NB You may use any letter more than once.7.It has been administered to over 10,000 subjects in a clinical trial.8.It could help rid human body of cholesterol.9.Researchers are yet to find more about it.10.It was used to reduce the level of cholesterol.11.According to Kashyap, it might lead to unwanted result if it’s blocked.12.It produced contradictory results in different trials.13.It could inhibit LDLs.List of choices A.Torcetrapic B.HDLS C.Statin D.CETP(by Zhou Hong)
Suggested Answers and Explanations 1. vi 2. ii 3. vii 本段介绍了torcetrapib和statin的治病原理,但是同时短语“in contrast”与之前第二段后半段的内容呼应,暗示了这两种药在理论上能相辅相成,是理想的搭配。第一个选项无法涵盖整段意义,故选择i是错误的。4. iii 本段分析了可能导致torcetrapibl临床试验失败的原因,后半段指出如果以上推测正确,那么未来的药物可借鉴这个试验,设法避免torcetrapib的缺陷,研制出有效的药物。viii选项无法涵盖后半段的意思。5. ix 见首句。6. v 7. A 见第二段。题目中administer一词意为“用药”,subject一词为“实验对象”之意。
8. B 见第四段“„ to raise levels of HDLs, which ferry cholesterol out of artery-clogging plaques to the liver for removal from the body.”即HDLs的作用最终是将choleserol清除出人体:“„ for removal from the body”。
9. B 见第四段“But HDLs are complex and not entirely understood.”
10.C 见第二段“„ plus a cholesterol-lowering statin”,即statin是可以降低cholesterol的。
11. D 见第六段“So inhibiting CETP, „ might actually cause an abnormal and irreversible accumulation of cholesterol in the body.12. A 见第三段。
13. C 见第四段“Statins, in contrast, mainly work by lowering the 'bad' low-density lipoproteins.”

参考译文
肥胖人士要减肥的话,必须要密切关注自己的饮食。最好的方法就是开始一项体重控制计划。首先,与你的医生讨论这个问题,这是明智之举。他可以建议每天你应该食用的卡路里的数量,他可以告诉你在节食的时候要注意运动。一个很好的方法就是慢慢地减肥,一次减少一两磅就很多了。
用你熟悉的食物计划你的三餐。这就意味着,你的节食计划里应该包括那些你习惯了的、成为你通常饮食习惯一部分的食物。当你达到你希望的重量时,可以将一些简单的食物添加到你的饮食中,以便你能保持你想要的体重。当你节食的时候,试着养成一个以后你还能保持的饮食习惯,从而可以维持你的理想体重。
节食时,要食用低卡路里的食物,不要吃如肥肉、油炸食品、糖果、蛋糕、奶油和软饮料之类的东西。试着喝不带糖和奶油的咖啡或茶。小点心可以是你食谱的一部分。例如,可以在正餐之间吃一片水果或者一份饭后剩下的简单的甜点。

终身人寿保险是一种永久保险保护,只要你支付保险费,它就可以保护你的整个一生,从你购买保险的那天开始直至你的死亡。
终身人寿保险是一个稳固的基础。因为它向你的家庭和企业提供毕生的保护,因此,你可以在这个基础之上建立长期的财政计划。
终身人寿保险提供基本的保险保护,外加:抵押保护、房产维护、退休基金、福利捐赠、企业需求等。
人寿保险代理将会协助你确定,在你死亡以后,为了保护你的家人或者企业所需的保险金额。
通常在第一年之后,保险单就会开始增加现金价值。你的保单中的现金数量通常每年都会增长。这些资金可以用来购买房屋,投资孩子的教育,增加到退休收入中或者用于其他用途。你也可以让它存在保险单中继续增值。
终身人寿保险可以获得红利。红利的分配是由每年召开的公司董事会决定的,它并不是有保障的。如果红利应该得到偿付,那么你可以选择拿现金用它来购买更多的保险或者支付和减少你的保险费的方式把它要回。
如果你不幸死亡,我们公司会向你的受益人支付死亡抚恤金,它通常是保险面额外加任何可能的红利。这些资金通常是由受益人享用的,它们都不需要付所得税。

参考译文
根据Carnegie Mellon大学的研究,网络的使用似乎能造成人的心理健康水平下降。
历时两年的研究表明,即便是一周只上几个小时网的人也比更不经常上网的人更多地体会到坏心情和孤独感。研究者对这一结果大惑不解,因为这与他们所预料的情况完全相反。因为网络能使人选择信息并与他人交流,所以他们期望网络比电视更能使社会和谐。
研究者推测,网络的使用减少了可用于与家人及朋友相处的时间,这一事实可能是造成心理健康下降的原因。不见面而且无形的虚拟交流在心理满足方面比不上真实对话,而且通过虚拟交流建立的关系更肤浅。另一个可能性是网络使用者可以接触更宽广的世界反而对自己的生活感到不满。
研究的发起人之一,英特尔心理学家Christine Riley说:“要记得有一点很重要:这并非技术的错,而是人们怎样利用它。它确实暗示出在如何设计技术应用和技术服务方面考虑社会因素的必要性。”
36.【答案精解】D。细节题。从第一句Internet use appears to cause a drop in psychological health,according to research at Carnegie Mellon University我们可以得出研究的结果是网络造成人的心理健康下降。
37.【答案精解】B。细节题。从文章中第二段最后一句They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television可得出B为正确答 案。
38.【答案精解】C。判断题。对照原文,只有选项C没有被提及,其他三项在原文中都可找到。A项源自第二段最后一句,B项与第三段第二句相对应,D项源自第三段最后一句。
39.【答案精解】A。细节题。在文章中Christine Riley所说的话“It really points to the need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.”可以直接得出答案。
40.【答案精解】D。主旨题。文章的中心思想是网络给人造成的坏心情及产生这一结果的原因,所以最佳标题是“网络可能导致坏心情”。

home, so they have to borrow money from a bank.Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage(抵押).”The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgae for twenty-five years.Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000.In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage.How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank.The bank will research you financial(金融的)history and decide if.they think you are a good risk.They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job.They will also want to know how much money you have.In addition, the banks will require a down payment.Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment.The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house.Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.41.What does a house mean in the United States?
A)It is a dream which many people can hardly realize.B)It is so expensive that many people cannot really buy them.C)It is the most important property that many people try to buy.D)It doesn't belong to people if they can't borrow money from the bank.42.If American people borrow money from the bank for 25 years, this means that the person who borrows

参考译文
房子是大多数人将要购买的最昂贵的物品。很少有人自己有足够的钱来购房,因而人们不得不从银行贷款。从银行借钱购房被称为“作抵押”。银行通常的借款期或抵押期可达25年。当前房价如此之高,以至人们的借款额高达50 000美元。换句话说,他们将有50 000美元的抵押款。
怎样获得抵押贷款呢?找到自己喜欢的房子后,到一家银行去。银行会审查你的金融纪录,而后决定你是否是一个风险较小的人。他们要了解你的工作类型,薪水收入,以及工作年限。他们还要了解你有多少钱。此外,银行还要求付首付款。根据所居住的不同的州,银行可能要求房价的30%作为首付款,而后银行将借给你购房所需的剩余部分款项。许多人因攒不到足够的钱付首付款,从而就根本没有能力购房。
答案及精解
41.【答案精解】C。细节题。从第一句A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy我们可以得知.房子是人们所要购置的最重要的财产。A、B两项都提到买房子的不可能性,与文章中的抵押贷款从而购房相悖。D项过于绝对化,并不是所有的人都必须通银行贷款才买得起房子。
42.【答案精解】A。细节题。从文章第一段The bank Usually lends money or gives a mortgage for twenty-five years得出银行的借期是25年,是一准确的数字,而不是多于、少于或大约25年。
43.【答案精解】B。释义题。从“down payment”的后一句话The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house可以推知“down payment”是在取得贷款之前自己先支付的那部分款项,即首付款。
44.【答案精解】D。细节题。题干询问的是银行查询的内容,集中在文章第二段,可以用对比排除的方法得出答案。A、B、C三项文章都有提及,剩下的一项即为正确答案。
45.【答案精解】C。主旨题。文章第一段由购房展开,引出了在当前房价高的形势下,人们购房所采用的方式——抵押贷款。并于第二段展开说明如何进行抵押贷款。故其主旨在于说明如何抵押贷款。所以文章标题可能是“如何获得抵押贷款”。D项如何购房的标题太大了.超出了文章所覆盖的范围。
