management .Also, I've been told I
can't ask for more money. I can get a new job with

message
that(22)_______is

Artificial
skin
is
a
substitute
for
human
skin
produced
in
the
laboratory,
typically
used
to
treat
burns.
Different
types
of
artificial
skin
differ
in
their
complexity,
but
all
are
designed
to
__31__
at
least some of the skin's basic functions, which
include protecting against wetness and infection
and regulating body heat.
Skin is primarily made of two layers:
the uppermost layer, the epidermis, which serves
as a
protection against the
environment; and the dermis, the layer below the
epidermis. The dermis
also
contains
substances,
which
help
to
make
the
skin
__32__
and
maintain
its
biological
functions.
Artificial skins close wounds, which
prevents bacterial infection and water loss and in
result
the wounded skin can __33__. For
example, one commonly used artificial skin,
Integra. functions
as a support between
cells that helps regulate cell behavior and causes
a new dermis to form by
promoting
cell
growth
and <
/p>
collagen(
股
原
质
)__34__.
The
Integra
“dermis”
is
also
biodegrad
able(
可生物降解的
). It is
gradually absorbed and replaced by the new dermis.
Aside from its uses in the clinical35,
artificial skin may also be used to model human
skin for
research. For example,
artificial skin is used as an alternative in
animal testing. Such testing may
cause
__36__ pain and discomfort to the animals and it
does not __37__ predict the response of
human skin. Some companies like
L’
ó
real have already used
artificial skin to test
many __38__
ingredients
and
products.
Other
research
applications
include
how
skin
is
affected
by
UV
exposure and how certain
substances in sunscreen and medicines are
transported through skin.
Today
new
technology
has
been
developed
by
growing
__39
__
of
skin
taken
from
the
patient
or other humans. One major source is the foreskins
of newborns. Such cells often do not
stimulate
the
body's
immune
system-a
mechanism
that
allows
babies
to
develop
within
their
mother’s body
-and hence are
much less likely to be __40__ by the patient's
body.

subject
and
it
tends
to
develop
gradually
over
time.
You
___45___
it
through unconscious and constant
exploring and self-shaping. Style does not mean

painting the same subject

delivered

Section B
Directions
：
Read
the following three 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

（

）
I boarded a small plane together with
my sister and 42 other passengers. While flying
over the
mountains,
the
plane
encountered
violent
airflow.
Losing
control
suddenly,
it
hit
an
unknown
mountain
peak.
The
impact
of
the
crash
claimed
the
lives
of
a
few
passengers
immediately,
leaving many
injured including my sister.
Adding a
slight chance of being found out, we waited in the
open, as opposed to waiting in the
plane, even though it was freezing
cold. At night, we slept side by side to keep
ourselves warm
and melted snow into
water. We knew our food couldn’t last us long,
sticking to the hope that we
would be
rescued soon.
We knew from radio that
the outside world was trying to look for the
missing aircraft. However,
the aircraft
was white and blended in with the snow, making it
impossible to be seen from the sky.
Later, our hope was dead when we found
out via our radio that the rescue effort ended.
Now climbing over the mountains
ourselves to search for help seemed to be our only
chance
of survival. Although the crash
site was an awful place, with
urine
（尿）
everywhere and
smelling
of death, I still wished to
stay there. But my sister would give in to her
injuries soon if we were
not
rescued.
Thus,
together
with
two
other
people,
Canessa
and
Vizintin,
I
decided
to
walk
through the icy wilderness for help.
Carrying some food and water, the three climbers
started our
journey. If we had known
anything about climbing, we would have realized
that we were already
finished. The
mountain we were about to challenge was one with
slopes so steep that it would
scare
away a team of expert climbers. Our ignorance
provided our only chance.
We endured
exhaustion and starvation and we had reached the
top.
To our horror, we found nothing.
Disappointed, we were about to give up hope when I
spotted
a valley at the base of the
mountain and again we started making our way down
the mountain.
Eventually, at the bottom
of the mountain we were helped by a local farmer
who called the
police for help. I then
guided the rescue team via a helicopter to the
crash site. Finally, after we
had
endured
nineteen
cruel
days,
the
world
found
out
that
there
were
16
survivors
who
had
cheated death despite
the odds.
56.
Why did they stay outside the plane?
A. Because they didn’t want
to stay with dead people inside.
B. Because it’s easier to obtain melted
snow for water.
C. Because
they hoped to be seen by the rescue people.
