learning their secret could help doctors better treat humans who have these diseases, therefore saving millions of lives.to solve this problem, a team of researchers from australia and china analyzed bat dna. the scientists studied two kinds of batsthe australian megabat, known as the flying fox, and the chinese microbat. the scientists then arranged the bat genome (基因组) in order by comparing their dna.the researchers now think that the special immunity (免疫性) to illness that bats have may be connected to their ability to fly.bats are the only mammals (哺乳动物) that can truly fly. flying uses up a lot of energy. the energy burned for flying produces something in the animal called free radicals (自由基). free radicals can damage dna and lead to diseases such as cancer.however, bats are not affected by free radicals produced during flight. the reason is that bats carry special genes to repair any damaged dna.scientists think that because bats fly and produce free radicals, theyve evolved to carry genes that shaped their special immune system.“were thinking that the evolution of flight led to a sort of effect, influencing not only the immune system but also things like aging and cancer,” says chris cowled, of the australian animal health laboratory. “we think weve really found something special.”researchers believe that this discovery might one day be key to helping humans fight diseases such as cancer that attack the immune system and damage dna.44. whats true about bats according to the passage?a. they carry many deadly diseases like sars so its easy for them to get sick.b. bats are the only animals that can tell directions easily.c. bats are among the mammals that can truly fly.d. researchers studied bats to help save people.45. according to researchers, bats can fight off many deadly diseases mainly because _.a. they have developed special immune system through evolutionb. they are able to fly, which burns a lot of energyc. free radicals in their bodies can damage dna and cause diseasesd. they carry no special genes to repair damaged dna46. the passage is mainly about _.a. bats and dangerous diseasesb. bats and their special immune systemc. free radicals and immune systemd. ways to cure cancercit is a novel that is probably more talked about than read. people think: “its such a big book! it has such a serious theme!” the feeling that they are going to be taught a long, hard lesson often puts readers off. but really, war and peace (1869), which tells the stories of five upper-class families in russia at the time of the 1812 french invasion, is not to be missed. reading this novel is one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences, like climbing the great wall: you will regret it if you do not try.earlier this month, usa today reported that a six-episode (集) war and peace miniseries (连续短剧) produced by the bbc would air next year.with a complex plot and so many characters, readers unfamiliar with the work might be most interested in the

ilyich loves the poor sonya, a ward (女仆) of the family, but his family is not happy with their relationship. the proud vera is about to start a happy marriage with a german-russian officer. the youngest rostov is the 9-year-old petya, who, like his brother nikolai, has his heart set on fighting for his country.the lives of all are about to be changed by the upcoming great war that involves many other major characters of war and peace, such as prince andrei, who goes into a military career partly in order to get away from his unhappy marriage to the socialite (社会名流) lise.the novel has a great reputation among many kinds of writers and millions of readers. us writer ernest hemingway wrote: “i dont know anybody who could write about war better than tolstoy did.” a comment by the great 20th-century russian short-story writer isaak babel shows the rich sense of history that tolstoys work conveys. “if the world itself could write, it would write like tolstoy,” babel commented.47. why do people prefer to talk about the novel rather than read it?a. the story is directly related to their daily life.b. the story is too long and has too serious a theme.c. they often get confused with the complex relationship.d. they can understand the story through shared ideas.48. what is the authors purpose in writing the passage?a. to tell readers different opinions on the book.b. to make it
