Immigration and Citizenship BAn important drug that serves as the backbone of treatment for most childhood cancers, has become increasingly rare, and doctors are warning that they may soon be forced to consider rationing doses(定量供应剂量)There have been longterm shortages of certain drugs and medical supplies in the United States for years, but doctors say the loss of this medication, vincristine(长春新碱) is leading to lots of problems, as there is no appropriate substitute. “This is truly a sad situation，” said Dr. Yoram Unguru, a doctor at the Herman and Walter Samuelson Childrens Hospital at Sinai in Baltimore. “Vincristine is our water. Its our bread and butter. I cant think of a treatment for childhood cancer that doesnt use vincristine.” Shortages of the drug will likely affect children throughout the country, he said, forcing doctors to make difficult decisions. “There is no substitution for vincristine that can be recommended，” Dr. Unguru said. “You either have to skip a dose or give a lower dose or beg or borrow.”Vincristine is one of the drugs used to manage leukemia, the most common childhood cancer. The Childrens Oncology Group, a group of researchers at hospitals and cancer centers, has made recommendations for changing clinical trial treatment rules involving vincristine, including checking the hospitals supply before trial enrollment, and considering using half the dose if the full amount is not available.“We are all disappointed，” said Dr. Michael Link, a doctor at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Without vincristine, many children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia will still be cured, “but this is a difficult disease to treat in general, and with one hand tied behind your back, it makes it much more difficult，” Dr. Link said.Until earlier this year, there were two suppliers of vincristine：Pfizer and Teva. In July, Teva made a “business decision to discontinue the drug，” according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA). Since then, Pfizer has been the only supplier, and the company lately has been experiencing troubles with production. “Pfizer has experienced a delay, and we are working closely with them and exploring all ways to make sure this important cancer drug is available for the patients who need it，” the FDA said. Jessica Smith from Pfizer said the company would speed up additional shipments of the drug over the next few weeks in an effort to make up for Tevas withdrawal from the market.()58. Which of the following statements of vincristine is TRUE according to the passage?A. It is quite rare and expensive. B. It is an irreplaceable drug.C. It is widely used in adult cancers. D. It used to be as common as bread and butter.()59. We can learn from Dr. Links words that _A. vincristine will cause back painB. the treatment without vincristine is almost impossibleC. the treatment without vincristine can still be carried outD. lack of vincristine will promote drug research()60. What measures will the FDA take to solve the problem?A. Exploring new ways to ship cancer drugs.B. Making an effort to produce vincristine.C. Cooperating with Pfizer to get more vincristine produced.D. Persuading Pfizer and Teva to deal with the problem together.COver the southern hemispheres summer, mercifully now at an end, Australia burned under a pitiless sun. Bush fires down the continents eastern part consumed 46 macres of countryside, destroying homes, taking lives and driving rare animals towards extinction. To many Australians, the satellite pictures showing huge amounts of smoke drifting off to the east over the Great Barrier Reef seemed a threat to life in an age of manmade warming.It turns out that high temperatures were doing great damage under the water as well. This month comes news that exceptionally warm seas have led the Great Barrier Reef, the worlds biggest coral system, to suffer its third mass bleaching in five years. The bush and the reef: Australians almost define themselves by these two ecosystems, which once seemed boundless.Coral bleaching takes place when sea temperatures rise sharply, causing the coral polyps that make up reefs to spray the algae(海藻) that generate their food via photosynthesis(光合作用). Without the coloured algae, coral soon dies, leaving the complex colonies a ghostly white. Reefs can recover from occasional bleachings：the fastestgrowing corals regenerate in a decade or so. But mass bleachings on the Great Barrier Reef are becoming ever more frequent. And the run of recent bleachings had already killed off relatively heatintolerant coral species. What is striking this year is that for the first time the bleaching extended to the southern part of the reef. There, closer to the pole, waters should be cooler. But not this year.The biblical rains that put out the bush fires have also helped to lower water temperatures over the reef. The rains are proof to climatechange deniers that recent fires, droughts and floods are simply part of the natural cycle. They point with delight to the bush springing back to life. Yet while important habitats depend upon fire to regenerate, this summers fires, exceptionally, destroyed temperate rainforests too. Regarding the reef, the deniers play_down the damage and insist on the ability of “nature to fix nature”. That is despite the accumulated effect of successive bleachings from which reefs struggle to recover.The bush fires threw the prime minister, Scott Morrison, off balance. Holidaying in Hawaii made him look out of touch, while his Liberal Partys cosy links to oil, gas, coal and ironore interests came under closer inspection. Mr. Morrisons official “representative” to the Great Barrier Reef, Warren Entsch, a Queensland politician, points out that “bleached corals are not dead corals” and predicts that many will recover. Although he admits climate change is a concern, he once complained that “forcing” youngsters to be worried about it is a form of “child abuse”. Most Australians care both about climate change and about the Great Barrier Reefbut not enough, alas, to call their government out over such ambivalence. ()61. The greatest challenge to the recovery of the Great Barrier Reef is _A. climate change B. bush firesC. heavy smoke D. high temperatures()62. The underlined expression “play down” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to “_”A. mention lightly B. think highly of C. criticize fiercely D. take seriously ()63. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The government is confident that nature will recover itself.B. The government lays more emphasis on child abuse.C. The government calls on the public to care about climate change.D. The government admits climate change is high on the agenda.()64. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Australia On Fire B. Life Under ThreatC. Forest Fires Under Control D. Great Barrier Reef In Hot WaterDDeo had grown up barefoot in Burundi, but for a peasant boy he had done well. He was twentyfour.
