For the more than 10 million Americans with c

olorblindness, there?s never been a treatment, let alone a

cure, for the condition that leaves them unable to distinguish certain colors.

Now, for the first time, two University of Washington professors have teamed with a California biotech firm to develop

what they say may be a ___41___: a single shot in the eye that can reveal the world in full color.

Jay and Maureen Neitz, who have studied the vision disorder for years, have found a new way to deliver genes that can

replace missing color-producing proteins in certain cells, called cones, in the eyes.

The

trouble

will

___42___

when

people

are

born

without

one

or

more

of

the

three

types

of

color-sensing

proteins

normally present in the cones of the

retina

（视网膜）

. The most common type is red-green colorblindness, followed by

blue-yellow colorblindness. A very small proportion of the population is ___43___ colorblind, seeing only shades of gray.

Colorblindness

is

often

a/an

___44___

disorder.

It

affects

mostly

men,

who

can

inherit

a

mutatio n

(

变异

)

on

the

X

chromosome

（染色体）

that weakens their perception of red and green. A much smaller part of cases are in women, who

have two X chromosomes, which gives them a better chance of avoiding

effects of any genetic imperfection.

Most people think of colorblindness as a/an ___45___ or disability, mainly causing problems with unmatched shirts

and socks. But the Neitzes say the condition can have profound impacts

—

limiting choices for education or careers, making

driving dangerous, and forcing continual ___46___ to a world designed for color vision.

“There are an awful lot of people who feel like their life is ___4

7___

because they don?t see color,” said Jay Neitz, 61,

a professor, who confirmed in 1989 that dogs are colorblind, too.

People may not ___48___ as commercial pilots, for instance, if they?re colorblind. Other careers that can be ___4

9___

include those of chefs, decorators, electricians and house painters, all of which require detailed color vision.

Undoubtedly, the Ne

itzes? findings have brought great benefits to those who are born unable to

distinguish between red

and green. But that technique is ___50___, requiring surgery, so the Neitzes are looking for another way to do the job.

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions:

For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each

blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

Many

of

us

have

found

ourselves

trying

to

explain

to

friends

and

colleagues

,

“No,

business

travel

isn?t

as

fun

and

fascinating

as it seems.”

Finally, there could be ___51___ to back this up. Researchers at the University of Surrey, in Britain,

and

Linnaeus

University,

in

Sweden,

have

published

a

new

study

highlighting

what

they

c

all

“a

___52___

side

of

hypermobility

(

常飞行

)

”.

The study, which combines existing research on the ___53___ of frequent travel, finds three types of consequence:

physiological, psychological and emotional, and social. The physiological ones are the most obvious. Jet lag is the suffering

travellers know best, although they may not ___54___ some of its more terrible potential effects, like speeding ageing or

increasing the risk of heart attack and stroke. Then there?s the danger of deep

-vein

thrombosis

< br>(

深静脉血栓

), ___55___ to

germs and radiation. And finally, of course, business travellers tend to get less exercise and eat less healthily than people

who stay in place.

The

psychological

and

emotional

damage

of

business

travel

is

more

abstract,

but

just

as

real.

Frequent

flyers

experience

“travel

disorientation”

from

___56___

places

and

time

zones

so

often.

They

also

___57___

mounting

stress,

given

that

“time

spent

travelling

will

rarely

be

balanced

through

a

reduced

workload,

and

that

there

may

be

anxieties

___58___

with

work

continuing

to

pile

up

while

being

away”.

___59___

the

absence

from

family

and

friends,

“hypermobility is frequently a

/an ___60___

experience,” the authors write. The accumulated impact can be

astonishing and

great.

Finally, there are the ___61___

effects. Marriages suffer from the time apart, as does children?s behaviour. What is

more, relationships tend to become more ___62___, as the partner who stays at home is forced to take on more ___63___

duties.

There?s

a

gender

inequality

here,

since

most

business

travellers

are

men.

Friendships

also

suffer,

as

business

travellers

often

“sacrifice

local

collective

activities

and

instead

___64___

their

immediate

families

when

returning

from

trips”.

Of course, these impacts are moderated by the fact that they fall disproportionately on a small part of the population

that is already doing rather well. The “mobile

elite

(

精英

)

” tend to have higher incomes and

___65___ to better health care

than the population at large.

So these may be problems of the 1% (or the 3%, or the 5%). But they?re real enough regardless. By all means

feel

jealous of acquaintances' Instagram photos of exotic meals and faraway attractions. But harbour a small amount of concern

as well.

Section B

Directions:

Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each

of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the

passage you have just read.

(A)

In a class this past December, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one

young woman quickly took a picture of the board using her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized,

“Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture?”

“I can?t read my own handwriting,”

the young woman explained. “It?s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can

understand the notes.”

That

remark

started

a

class-wide

conversation

about

taking

a

picture

instead

of

taking

notes.

For

those

in

the

photo-taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures

of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they

wouldn?t

lose

their

phones.

Some

took

photos

because

they

wanted

to

record

exactly

the

manner

in

which

I

had

noted

information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively.

Yet the use of cameras as note takers, though it may be convenient, does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is

a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking?

Instructors

encourage

students

to

take

notes

because

the

act

of

doing

so

is

more

than

merely

recording

necessary

information

—

it

helps

prepare

the

way

for

understanding.

Encouraging

students

to

take

notes

may

be

an

old-fashioned

instructional

method,

but

just

because

a

method

has

a

long

history

doesn?t

mean

it?s

out

of

date.

Writing

things

down

engages

a

stud

ent?s

brain

in

listening,

visual,

and

kines thetic

(

触觉的

)

learning

—

a

view

supported

by

a

longstanding

research.

The

act

of

writing

down

information

enables

a

person

to

begin

committing

it

to

memory,

and

to

process

and

combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts.

Taking a picture does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking

notes employs. So can the two be equally effective?

66. The woman apologized in the class because she_________.

A. had the bad handwriting

B. miss

ed the teachers? directions

C. took a picture of the board

D. disturbed other students? learning

67. According to the passage, which of the following may NOT

explain students? reluctance to take

notes?

A. They lack proper techniques for taking notes.

B. They want to listen more attentively in class.

C. They believe smart phones are much safer for storing notes.

D. They want to have the exact version of the notes on the board.

68. According to the passage, taking notes by hand__________.

A. requires students to think independently

B. helps students actively participate in learning

C. proves to be an old and useless learning method

D. seems unsuitable for students to learn new ideas

69. What is the main idea of this passage?

A. The traditional way of note-taking should be replaced.

B. A modern way of note-taking is catching on.

C. Note-taking by hand is not out of date.

D. A picture is worth a thousand words.
