On my sn Andrew’s 15th birthday, I tk him t a she stre t get a pair f shes. We arrived right when the stre pened because Andrew is a nnspeaking autistic (自闭) and prefers shpping when it’s nt busy. After chsing the desired shes, we paid and thanked the clerks. “It’s Andrew’s birthday tday. Fifteen!” I said. “Happy birthday!” they said. “Have fun!”
Instead f having Andrew pint t the “thank yu” symbl n his picture chart, I hld up his letter bard. Fr 10 years, Andrew has used a picture chart t cmmunicate. The images represent imprtant and cmmn wrds; peple, places, fd, greetings and activities. Years ag, we discvered that Andrew culd cmmunicate mre than just his basic needs via a letter bard. He can pint t the letters and spell ut wrds, statements, thughts.
Using the letter bard requires significant time and effrt fr Andrew, but it gives him an pprtunity t share far mre f wh he is than he can cnvey thrugh pictures and basic wrds. S instead f dashing ut, I hld up the letter bard and ask Andrew hw he’d like t respnd. The stre clerks are quiet, watching. Andrew pints t each letter, ne by ne: “Thank yu.” I smile and turn t leave.
One f the clerks, a man abut my age, speaks up: “Um, can I ask yu ... what is that? Because I have a brther-in-law ... and he desn’t talk.” “Oh! This is an alphabet bard that Andrew uses t cmmunicate,” I reply. “We’ve practiced it fr years. It’s quite incredible, as we just didn’t knw Andrew was s ‘in there’. We didn’t even knw this tl existed-it’s relatively uncmmn. It’s changed everything fr us, fr ur family, fr Andrew.”
This is what happens when we invite thers int ur humanness, and we allw them t share theirs. “Let me give yu my cntact inf, as well as the website f the spelling-t-cmmunicate rganizatin,” I cntinue. I ask the clerk abut his brther-in-law. He tells us that Jasn is 30 and desn’t prefer t speak, but he can d a lt fr himself. Still, n ne really knws him. Maybe there’s mre, the clerk wnders.
“Amazing!” I say. “We’ve met peple-haven’t we, Andrew? —wh started using this methd when they were 50 r 5 r 15! Andrew, what d yu think?” Andrew starts pinting t letters: “Tell Jasn…”
I chke up. Smetimes I frget hw pwerful the letter bard is. Hw ’pwerful Andrew is. “Tell Jasn he will change everyne’s pinin f him in 26 letters.” We are all mved, inspired, thrilled.
“Ww,” the clerk says.
“Thank yu.” Andrew smiles.
24. What is the purpse f the letter bard mentined in the passage?

In Shark Bay, Australia, bttlense dlphins that aren’t related have been bserved teaching each ther a new way t use a tl, a behavir that until nw scientists have fund nly in humans and ther great apes. It’s als the first knwn example f dlphins transmitting such knwledge within the same generatin, rather than between generatins.
In a practice called shelling, dlphins will chase fish int abandned giant snail shells n the seaflr, then bring the shells t the surface, and shake them with their nses, remving the water and catching the fish that fall ut.
“The fact that shelling is scially transmitted amng dlphin peers rather than between mther and child sets an imprtant milestne,” senir study authr Michael Krutzen said.
In 2007, Krutzen launched a study f Shark Bay’s dlphins, identifying mre than a thusand individual dlphins ver 11 years. During this time, scientists bserved shelling 42times amng 19 dlphins. Half f these events ccurred after a marine heatwave in 2011, which may have caused a die-ff amng giant sea snails, leading t mre shells n the seaflr.
Because f the length f their study, scientists had very detailed knwledge f the individual dlphins’ family histries, ages, sexes and behavir, making it easier fr them t study the 19 dlphins that practiced shelling. Fr instance, they bserved that the dlphins that practised shelling hung ut with ther shellers, s it’s likely that they cpied frm thse they spent time with, says study lead authr Snja Wild.
The team knew that envirnmental factrs-specifically, whether shelling dlphins did s simply because they lived in a shell-rich area-culd explain this peer-t-peer transmissin. A genetic characteristic amng a family grup was anther pssible reasn.
S the researchers cmbined their data n the dlphin sightings, as well as genetic and envirnmental data, int a cmputer mdel that prpsed varius ways shelling culd be transmitted between dlphins. The mdel that supprted hrizntal (横向的) transmissin was the strngest utcme, accrding t the study.
28. What is the functin f the first paragraph?
A. T make a cmment n the main tpic f the passage.
B. T draw readers’ attentin t the main tpic f the passage.
C. T give a brief intrductin t the main tpic f the passage.
D. T present the backgrund f the main tpic f the passage.
29. What is the secnd paragraph mainly abut?

C. cnduct shelling abut fur times a yearD. acquire shelling skills frm ther shellers
31. The cmputer mdel is t ________.
A. further cnfirm hw shelling actually spreads
B. explain why shelling nly spreads between peers
C. lk fr new pssible ways fr dlphins t spread shelling
D. find ut hw envirnmental and genetic factrs affect shelling transmissin

DNA testing is ne f mdern medicine’s mst significant breakthrughs. Tday, anyne can receive persnalized infrmatin abut their genes and ancestry with just a little saliva (唾液). Nw, a Seattle-based cmpany is wrking t bring equally deep analysis t the trillins f prteins within ur bdies.
Nautilus Bitechnlgy, a cmpany funded in 2016 by Seattle’s Sujal Patel and the San Francisc Bay Area’s Parag Mallick, is develping a device t identify and cunt 95% f the different types f prteins in a bilgical sample.
Human cells can cntain rughly 20,000 different types f prteins, with crucial functins ranging frm digestin t disease prtectin. Each cell has a varying amunt f each prtein. The cmpany wants t measure the key machinery (系统) inside cells with a level f detail that has never been dne befre. Existing tls, it says, can nly measure up t 8% f the different types f prteins in bld samples.
S why d peple cunt prteins? Research shws healthy cells and diseased cells have differing amunts and frms f each prtein. Fr example, cancer cells may have mre f Prtein A than PrteinB. Knwing that might help in tw ways. First, dctrs culd lk fr higher Prtein A levels t detect cancer early. Secnd, researchers culd better design drugs t target Prtein A.
Nautilus says such prtein measurements, which are unique t every persn and change thrughut peple’s lives, will nt nly help dctrs identify mre specific frms f disease but als help pharmaceutical (制药的) cmpanies find mre precise drugs with fewer side effects.
While ther cmpanies als are building new prtein analysis machines, experts and prspective custmers have expressed excitement ver Nautilus’s apprach. Mallick, chief scientist f Nautilus and the brains behind its technlgy, is cnfident. “It’s nt every day that yu get ... t wrk n smething that’s the pprtunity t change all f bilgy.”
32. What is the Seattle-based cmpany ding?
A. Trying t cunt the amunts f bld cells. B. Examining DNA fr persnalized infrmatin.
C. Develping a device t analyze peple’s prteins. D. Revealing mre abut ur ancestries with DNA testing.
33. What makes the inventin f the device pssible?
A. Precise drugs are guaranteed. B. Cell analysis techniques develp fast.
C. Prteins are much easier t be analyzed. D. Prtein amunts and frms vary frm cell t cell.
34. In which area will the device be helpful?
A. Disease mnitring and machine design. B. Disease detectin and drug develpment.
C. Disease preventin and targeted treatment. D. Disease treatment and the preventin f side effects.
35. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Cmbining DNA Testing with Prtein AnalysisB. Setting a New Example f Medical Slutins
C. Creating Opprtunities fr Changing BilgyD. Analysing Prteins fr New Medical Breakthrughs

On my sn Andrew’s 15th birthday, I tk him t a she stre t get a pair f shes. We arrived right when the stre pened because Andrew is a nnspeaking autistic (自闭) and prefers shpping when it’s nt busy. After chsing the desired shes, we paid and thanked the clerks. “It’s Andrew’s birthday tday. Fifteen!” I said. “Happy birthday!” they said. “Have fun!”
Instead f having Andrew pint t the “thank yu” symbl n his picture chart, I hld up his letter bard. Fr 10 years, Andrew has used a picture chart t cmmunicate. The images represent imprtant and cmmn wrds; peple, places, fd, greetings and activities. Years ag, we discvered that Andrew culd cmmunicate mre than just his basic needs via a letter bard. He can pint t the letters and spell ut wrds, statements, thughts.
Using the letter bard requires significant time and effrt fr Andrew, but it gives him an pprtunity t share far mre f wh he is than he can cnvey thrugh pictures and basic wrds. S instead f dashing ut, I hld up the letter bard and ask Andrew hw he’d like t respnd. The stre clerks are quiet, watching. Andrew pints t each letter, ne by ne: “Thank yu.” I smile and turn t leave.
One f the clerks, a man abut my age, speaks up: “Um, can I ask yu ... what is that? Because I have a brther-in-law ... and he desn’t talk.” “Oh! This is an alphabet bard that Andrew uses t cmmunicate,” I reply. “We’ve practiced it fr years. It’s quite incredible, as we just didn’t knw Andrew was s ‘in there’. We didn’t even knw this tl existed-it’s relatively uncmmn. It’s changed everything fr us, fr ur family, fr Andrew.”
This is what happens when we invite thers int ur humanness, and we allw them t share theirs. “Let me give yu my cntact inf, as well as the website f the spelling-t-cmmunicate rganizatin,” I cntinue. I ask the clerk abut his brther-in-law. He tells us that Jasn is 30 and desn’t prefer t speak, but he can d a lt fr himself. Still, n ne really knws him. Maybe there’s mre, the clerk wnders.
“Amazing!” I say. “We’ve met peple-haven’t we, Andrew? —wh started using this methd when they were 50 r 5 r 15! Andrew, what d yu think?” Andrew starts pinting t letters: “Tell Jasn…”
I chke up. Smetimes I frget hw pwerful the letter bard is. Hw ’pwerful Andrew is. “Tell Jasn he will change everyne’s pinin f him in 26 letters.” We are all mved, inspired, thrilled.
“Ww,” the clerk says.
“Thank yu.” Andrew smiles.
24. What is the purpse f the letter bard mentined in the passage?
A. T display birthday messages. B. T cmmunicate using pictures.

In Shark Bay, Australia, bttlense dlphins that aren’t related have been bserved teaching each ther a new way t use a tl, a behavir that until nw scientists have fund nly in humans and ther great apes. It’s als the first knwn example f dlphins transmitting such knwledge within the same generatin, rather than between generatins.
In a practice called shelling, dlphins will chase fish int abandned giant snail shells n the seaflr, then bring the shells t the surface, and shake them with their nses, remving the water and catching the fish that fall ut.
“The fact that shelling is scially transmitted amng dlphin peers rather than between mther and child sets an imprtant milestne,” senir study authr Michael Krutzen said.
In 2007, Krutzen launched a study f Shark Bay’s dlphins, identifying mre than a thusand individual dlphins ver 11 years. During this time, scientists bserved shelling 42times amng 19 dlphins. Half f these events ccurred after a marine heatwave in 2011, which may have caused a die-ff amng giant sea snails, leading t mre shells n the seaflr.
Because f the length f their study, scientists had very detailed knwledge f the individual dlphins’ family histries, ages, sexes and behavir, making it easier fr them t study the 19 dlphins that practiced shelling. Fr instance, they bserved that the dlphins that practised shelling hung ut with ther shellers, s it’s likely that they cpied frm thse they spent time with, says study lead authr Snja Wild.
The team knew that envirnmental factrs-specifically, whether shelling dlphins did s simply because they lived in a shell-rich area-culd explain this peer-t-peer transmissin. A genetic characteristic amng a family grup was anther pssible reasn.
S the researchers cmbined their data n the dlphin sightings, as well as genetic and envirnmental data, int a cmputer mdel that prpsed varius ways shelling culd be transmitted between dlphins. The mdel that supprted hrizntal (横向的) transmissin was the strngest utcme, accrding t the study.

DNA testing is ne f mdern medicine’s mst significant breakthrughs. Tday, anyne can receive persnalized infrmatin abut their genes and ancestry with just a little saliva (唾液). Nw, a Seattle-based cmpany is wrking t bring equally deep analysis t the trillins f prteins within ur bdies.
Nautilus Bitechnlgy, a cmpany funded in 2016 by Seattle’s Sujal Patel and the San Francisc Bay Area’s Parag Mallick, is develping a device t identify and cunt 95% f the different types f prteins in a bilgical sample.
Human cells can cntain rughly 20,000 different types f prteins, with crucial functins ranging frm digestin t disease prtectin. Each cell has a varying amunt f each prtein. The cmpany wants t measure the key machinery (系统) inside cells with a level f detail that has never been dne befre. Existing tls, it says, can nly measure up t 8% f the different types f prteins in bld samples.
S why d peple cunt prteins? Research shws healthy cells and diseased cells have differing amunts and frms f each prtein. Fr example, cancer cells may have mre f Prtein A than PrteinB. Knwing that might help in tw ways. First, dctrs culd lk fr higher Prtein A levels t detect cancer early. Secnd, researchers culd better design drugs t target Prtein A.
Nautilus says such prtein measurements, which are unique t every persn and change thrughut peple’s lives, will nt nly help dctrs identify mre specific frms f disease but als help pharmaceutical (制药的) cmpanies find mre precise drugs with fewer side effects.
While ther cmpanies als are building new prtein analysis machines, experts and prspective custmers have expressed excitement ver Nautilus’s apprach. Mallick, chief scientist f Nautilus and the brains behind its technlgy, is cnfident. “It’s nt every day that yu get ... t wrk n smething that’s the pprtunity t change all f bilgy.”
32. What is the Seattle-based cmpany ding?
A. Trying t cunt the amunts f bld cells. B. Examining DNA fr persnalized infrmatin.
C. Develping a device t analyze peple’s prteins. D. Revealing mre abut ur ancestries with DNA testing.
33. What makes the inventin f the device pssible?
A. Precise drugs are guaranteed. B. Cell analysis techniques develp fast.
C. Prteins are much easier t be analyzed. D. Prtein amunts and frms vary frm cell t cell.
34. In which area will the device be helpful?
A. Disease mnitring and machine design. B. Disease detectin and drug develpment.
C. Disease preventin and targeted treatment. D. Disease treatment and the preventin f side effects.
35. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Cmbining DNA Testing with Prtein AnalysisB. Setting a New Example f Medical Slutins
C. Creating Opprtunities fr Changing BilgyD. Analysing Prteins fr New Medical Breakthrughs
