8.To Whom It May Concern,
My husband Jim and I got married in 1965.For the first ten years of our marriage,I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children.Then about four years ago,our youngest child went to school,and I thought I might go back to work.
Jim was very supportive and helped me to make my decision.He started to do all the things I used to do around the house,and said he thought I could be a great success in business.
After several weeks of job hunting,I found my present job,which is working for a small public relation firm.At first,my husband was proud of me and would tell his friends,"My clever little wife can run that company she's working for."
But,as his joking words were becoming reality,Jim stopped talking to me about my job.I have received several promotions and pay increases,and I am now making more money than he is.I can buy my own clothes and a new car.Because of our combined incomes,Jim can do things that we had always dreamed of doing,but we don't do these things because he is unhappy.
We fought about little things,and Jim is very critical of me in front of our friends.For the first time in our marriage,I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end.
I love Jim very much,and I don't want him to feel inferior(较差的),but I also love my job.I think I can be a good wife and a working woman,but I don't know how.Can you give me some advice?Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?
Please help.
Yours,
Mary

46.When I was young,I used to travel in some modem cities because I used to believe I could broaden my outlook there.However,now I find the best way to cultivate my mind is to get close to the oceans,the forests,the hills and the culture behind the nature.E

15.ROME:The legend of Leonardo da Vinci is covered in mystery:How did he die?Are the remains buried in a French castle really those of the master?Was the"Mona Lisa"a self-portrait in disguise (伪装)?
A group of Italian scientists believe the key to solving those puzzles lies with the remains,and they say they are seeking permission to dig up the body to conduct carbon and DNA testing.
If the skull is undamaged,the scientists can go to the heart of a question that has fascinated scholars and the public for centuries:the identity of the"Mona Lisa."Recreating a virtual and then physical reconstruction of Leonardo's face,they can compare it with the smiling face in the painting.
"We don't know what we'll find if the tomb is opened.We could even just find grains and dust,"says Giorgio Gruppioni,an anthropologist who is participating in the project."But if the remains are well kept,they are a biological record of events in a person's life,and sometimes in their death."Silvano Vinceti,the leader of the group,said that   he plans to press his case with the French officials in charge of the said burial site at Amboise Castle early next week.
Leonardo moved to France at the invitation of King Francis I,who named him"first painter to the king."He spent the last three years of his life there,and died in 1519at age 67.The artist's original burial place,the palace church of Saint Florentine,was destroyed during the French Revolution and remains that are believed to be his were eventually reburied in the Saint-Hubert Chapel near the castle.
"The Amboise tomb is a symbolic tomb; it's a big question mark,"said Alessandro Vezzosi,the director of a museum dedicated to Leonardo in his hometown of Vinci.Vezzosi said that investigating the tomb could help identify the artist's bones with certainty and solve other questions,such as the cause of his death.He said he asked to open the tomb in 2004to study the remains,but the Amboise Castle turned him down.
The group of 100experts involved in the project,called the National Committee for Historical and Artistic Heritage,was created in 2003with the aim of"solving the great mysteries of the past,"said Vinceti,who has written books on art and literature.
Arguably the world's most famous painting,the"Mona Lisa"hangs in the Louvre in Paris,where it drew some 8.5million visitors last year.Mystery has surrounded the identity of the painting's subject for centuries,with opinions ranging from the wife of a Florentine merchant to Leonardo's own mother.
That Leonardo intended the"Mona Lisa"as a self-portrait in disguise is a possibility that has interested and divided scholars.Theories have existed:Some think that Leonardo's taste for tricks and riddles might have led him to hide his own identity behind that puzzling smile; others have guessed that the painting hid an androgynous lover.
If granted access to the grave site,the Italian experts plan to use a tiny camera and radar to confirm the presence of bones.The scientists would then exhume (挖掘) the remains and attempt to date the bones with carbon testing.
At the heart of the proposed study is the effort to discover whether the remains are actually Leonardo's,including with DNA testing.
Vezzosi questions the DNA comparison,saying he is unaware of any direct descendants (后代) of Leonardo or of tombs that could be attributed with certainty to the artist's close relatives.
Gruppioni said that DNA from the bones could also eventually be compared to DNA found elsewhere.For example,Leonardo is thought to have rubbed colors on the canvas with his thumb,possibly using saliva (唾液),meaning DNA might be found on his paintings.
Even in the absence of DNA testing,other tests could provide useful information,including whether the bones belonged to a man or a woman,and whether the person died young or old.
Even within the committee,experts are divided over the identity of the"Mona Lisa."
Vinceti believes that a tradition of considering the self-portrait to be not just a faithful imitation of one's features but a representation of one's spiritual identity may have resonated (共鸣) with Leonardo.
Vezzosi,the museum director,dismissed as"baseless and senseless"the idea that the"Mona Lisa"could be a self-portrait of Leonardo.He said most researchers believe the woman may have been either a wife of the artist's sponsor,the Florentine nobleman Giuliano de Medici,or Lisa Gherardini,the wife of a rich silk merchant,Francesco del Giocondo.The traditional view is that the name"Mona Lisa"comes from the silk merchant's wife,as well as its Italian name:"La Gioconda."

2.During the outbreak of 2009-2010 H1N1 or"swine flu",the same virus that caused mild coughing and sneezing in some patients proved deadly for others.It highlighted a medical mystery:why are some people more fit to handle the flu than others?
British and American researchers think they have a clue.Reporting on Sunday in the journal Nature,researchers say they've found a gene that influences our ability to fight against flu illness.The gene,called IFITM3,is the"important first line of defense"against the flu,researcher Paul Kellam of Britain's Sanger Institute told Reuters.
The IFITM3 protein(蛋白) prevents flu viruses from reproducing in cells.So,if you have a high amount of IFITM3,you're in luck,since it weakens the spread of the virus; a low amount can lead to more rapid viral reproduction,causing severe flu symptoms,according to Kellam.
Scientists first found in gene studies that IFITM3played a role in resistance to flu and other viruses.In experiments in mice,they showed that when mice were raised to lack the IFITM3gene and then infected with influenza,the animals developed more severe lung infection from flu,compared with mice that had the gene.
To figure out the role of IFTTM3 in humans,researchers then studied the IFITM3genes of 53patients with the flu in 2009-2010.They found that these patients were more likely to have a variant of the IFITM3gene-which makes people more vulnerable to flu-compared with the general population.According to evidence from large genetic databases,about 1in 400people carries this IFITM3variant,the BBC reports.
"Our research is important for people who have this variant as we predict their immune defenses could be weakened to some virus infections,"said Kellam.
The Findings also suggest that a drug that functions as IFITM3could help increase resistance to flu and other viruses,including deadly ones like H5N1flu.

63.What does the underlined word'vulnerable'mean in the fifth paragraph?D
A.resistant         B.accessible        C.adjustable      D.defenseless
64.You are less likely to get infected with H1N1ifD
A.a variant of EFIM3is produced
B.the immune system is weakened
C.protein doesn't function in your cells
D.you have a high amounts of IFITM3
65.Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A
A.Why Flu Hits Some People Harder
B.How We Protect Ourselves From Flu
C.How We Get Infected With Flu
D.Why Flu Breaks Out Among People.
