高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
Peter Thiel,the billionaire co-founder of PayPal,plans to live to be 120.Compared with some other tech billionaires,he doesn't seem particularly ambitious.Dmitry Itskov,the “godfather” of the Russian Internet,says his goal is to live to 10.000;and Sergey Brin,co-founder of Google,hopes to someday "cure death.
They aren't being ridiculous.Their search is based on real science that could fundamentally change what we know about life and about death.It’s hard to believe,though,since the human search for immortality is both ancient and filled with disastrous failures.Around 200 B.C.,the first emperor of China,Qin Shi Huang,accidentally killed himself trying to live forever;he poisoned himself by eating mercury(水银)pills.Centuries later, the search for eternal life wasn't much safer: In J492,Pope Innocent VIII died after blood transfusions from three healthy boys whose youth he believed he could absorb.
But historical examples haven't discouraged some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley.Thiel,for example,has given $3.5 million to the Methuselah Foundation.Aubrey de Grey,Methuselah's co-founder,says SENS,the nonprofit's main research is devoted to finding drugs that cure several types of age-related damage:"Loss of cells, excessive(过多的)cell division,inadequate cell death,garbage inside the cell,garbage outside the cell,...The idea is that the human body,being a machine,has a structure that determines all aspects of its function,so if we can restore that structure—at the molecular(分子的)and cellular(细胞的)level—then we will restore function too,so we will have comprehensively renewed the body."
But SENS,which has an annual operating budget of $5 million,is small,compared with the Brin-led Project Calico,Google's attempt to “cure death,”which is planning to pump billions into a partnership with medicine giant AbbVie.Google is secretive,but it's said to be building a drug to copy a gene associated with exceptional life span.
Then there's the Glenn Foundation for Medical Research,started by Paul F.Glenn in 1965.Since 2007,the foundation has distributed annual "Glenn Awards,"$60,000 to independent researchers doing promising work on aging.The Glenn Foundation also works closely with the Ellison Medical Foundation,a far younger institution (founded in 1997).Ellison's passion project gives out hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to scholars seeking research on aging.Their decision to fund independent research may be paying off.Research projects funded by Ellison and Glenn appear to be developing into a testable means to stave off old age—for lab mice.The question is: Can those lab results be repeated in humans?
1.Which of the following statements about those billionaires is true?
A. They are determined to dream big.
B. What they are doing is silly and unreasonable.
C. Their plan will end up in failure just like the Chinese emperor.
D. They feel let down by those examples that happened in the past.
2.Which of the following DOESN'T explain the theory behind the project of SENS?
A. Something wrong happens at the molecular and cellular level.
B. Repairing the damage is the key to bringing back the function.
C. Cell death should be prevented and then our body will function well.
D. Structure decides how our body works.
3.According to the context,the underlined word "immortality"is close in meaning to the following expressions (also underlined) except .
A. eternal life B. renewing the body
C. life span D. staving off old age
4.Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Probably the Glenn Foundation with the Ellison Medical Foundation will continue their efforts.
B. The Glenn Foundation with the Ellison Medical Foundation has supported people and projects devoted to the research of aging.
C. The Glenn Foundation with the Ellison Medical Foundation has proved the way of delaying aging in mice.
D. The Glenn Foundation with the Ellison Medical Foundation has wasted their time and money since it cannot be applied to human beings.
