18、y. B Therapy(治疗) Appointment “You want out again, Marmalade? You were just out. What, not the back door, you want out the front?” I was very surprised that our beautiful cat wanted out again.

19、ays wanted the front door instead of the back door she normally used to go to the yard.

20、ing every day. Marm went down the front stairs and out to the city sidewalk then just sat there. About three minutes later, she flopped(跳) down and rolled over so her belly(肚子) was showing.

21、lk just crossing a block down from our house was a group of about fifteen young adults from the nearby group home for young adults with Down syndrome(唐氏综合症). They were out for a walk.

22、lose enough to touch Marm, she lay quietly while each person took a turn petting her. This took quite a while, and obviously these teens were very comfortable petting her. When everyone had given Marm a petting, she turned over, stood up and gave herself a shake, then walked back up the sidewalk to
23、the front door to be let in. It had been a breathtaking experience to see. The next day, at the same time, I watched it happen again. After a few more days of this, I wondered how long this had been lasting, so I went out and asked the adults. What I was told was both interesting and humbling. Our w

C Microplastics are everywhere in our environment. Its hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A ne
28、w study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year. Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large 6 plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existen
29、ce of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health. Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, amo
30、ng which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation （吸入）using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agencys reported respiration rates. Based
31、 on these data, the researchers calculated that our annual consumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year. The authors of t
32、he study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. “This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact.“ Cox says. The new
33、 study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate “the accumulative human exposure“ to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans caloric
34、 intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content. For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we hav
35、e to stop producing and using so much plastic. 28What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body? AThe quality. BThe quantity. CThe shape. DThe size. 29How did Kieran Coxs team calculate the potential consumption of microplastics? ABy studying papers. BBy comparing the
36、 impacts. CBy analyzing the data. DBy conducting experiments. 30Which of the following is true according to the text? ADrinking less plastic bottled water helps to take in fewer microplastics. 7 BThe study is among the earliest to investigate human exposure to microplastics. CCoxs team gained compre
37、hensive information of microplastics taken in by humans. DPeople consume 74,000 to 121,000 particles of microplastics per year from food and drink. 31What is the best title for the text?

A global trial of the drug found it reduced the risk of bleeding deaths during childbirth by nearly one-third. The study involved 20,000 women in 21
39、 countries, mainly in Africa and Asia. The trial was carried out by Londons School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The drug is called d tranexamic acid (氨甲环酸).

Haleema Shakur is the project director of the trial. She says despite medical advances in many countries, severe bleeding after
41、childbirth remains a big problem in some parts of the world. “Its one of the biggest killers of mothers. In Africa and Asia. about 10 percent of women will end up with severe bleeding. “ The drug works by stopping blood clots(血凝块) from breaking down after a mother gives birth. The treatment can prev
42、ent the need for doctors to perform surgery to find the source of bleeding. Shakur said the best results were reported when the drug was given to women as soon as possible after childbirth, “The earlier you give it- so within the first three hours of giving birththe better the effect is. ” The next
43、step will be to get the drug where it is needed provide training for doctors and nurses on how to use it. During the trial, women were given the drug in a hospital. But researchers are looking for easier ways to administer the drug so it can be more widely used in small clinics and rural areas. 32Tr
