【题目】More than four decades ago British scientist Robert Edwards first witnessed the miracle of human life growing inside a test tube at his Cambridge lab. Since that ground-breaking moment, more than four million babies have been born through IVF and in 2010 his great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine．

The prize for Dr Edwards, who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2008, includes￡900,000 cheque. The Nobel Assembly described IVF as a "milestone in modern medicine"．

With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, the Manchester-born physiologist developed IVF — leading to the birth of the world's first test tube baby. Dr Steptoe died 10 years later but their work has transformed fertili-

-ty treatment and given hope to millions of couples．

It was a scientific breakthrough that transformed the lives of millions of couples. They said: "His achievemen-

-ts have made it possible to treat infertility, a disease which makes human unable to have a baby. This condition has beenafflictinga large percentage of mankind including more than 10% of all couples worldwide.”

Louise Brown, the world's first test tube baby, made international headlines when she was born in Oldham, Gtr Manchester, in 1978 to parents Lesley and John who had been fruitlessly trying for a baby since 1969．

Ivf-in-vitro fertilisation is the process whereby egg cells are fertilised outside the body before being implanted in the womb. After a cycle of IVF, the probability of a couple with infertility problems having a baby is one in five — the same as healthy couples who conceive naturally．

Professor Edwards, who has five daughters and 11 grandchildren, began his research at Cambridge University in 1963, after receiving his PhD in 1955．He once said: "The most important thing in life is having a child. Noth-

-ing is more special than a child.” With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, Prof. Edwards founded the Bourn Hall clinic in Cambridge shire, which now treats more than 900 women a year. Each year, more than 30,000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and 11,000 babies are born as a result of the treatment．

But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church who said it was "unethical and immoral"．

Martin Johnson, professor of reproductive（生殖的） sciences at the University of Cambridge, said the award was "long overdue". He said: “We couldn't understand why the Nobel has come so late but he is delighted — this is the cherry on the cake for him.”

Professor Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said he was "thrilled and delighted"．

A. Challenging a disease which stops human having a baby．

B. Seeing the wonder of the first tube baby growing.

D. Helping couples with infertility to have tube babies．

【2】What does the underlined word “afflicting”（Paragraph 4）most probably refer to?

A. Troubling. B. Developing.

C. Improving. D. Confusing.

【3】Why did Professor Edwards begin his research on tube baby?

A. Because he thought it of great significance to have a child in life．

B. Because the birthrate around the world was unexpectedly low then．

C. Because a special child did make a difference to an ordinary family．

D. Because his fellow scientist wanted to give hope to the unlucky couples．

Dear Seth,

You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can’t read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But I’ve been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what I’ve learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years. As with my advice, take it with a grain of salt. What works for me might not work for you. But someday when you’re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.

【1】 _____________________________

You are young, and life has yet to take its toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by longs hours of thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life. For this, be thankful. You are at a wonderful stage of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come even if they are not without their costs and great dangers．

【2】 _____________________________

There will be people in your life who won’t be very nice because you’re different, or for no good reason. There’s not much you can do except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you, actually care about you, and make you feel good about yourself. There will be times when you are met with disappointment rather than success. Life won’t always turn out the way you want. But instead of letting these things get you down, push on. Learn to turn negatives into positives. You’ll also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love. I hope you don’t have to face this too much, but it happens. Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life and learn to use them to make you stronger．

【3】 _____________________________

Yes, you’ll find suffering in your journey through life, but don’t let that close you to new things or wall yourself off. Be open to new things, experiences and people. You might get your heart broken ten times but find the most wonderful woman the 11th time. You might get teased and hurt by people you meet. If you close yourself off to new people, who will be there during the toughest times of your life and create some of the best times of your life. You will fail many times but if you allow that to stop you from trying, you will miss out on the amazing feeling of success once you reach new heights with your accomplishments.

【4】_____________________________

You will meet many people who will try to outdo you in school, in college, at work. They’ll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, nicer clothes, cooler gadgets. To them, life is a competition — they have to do better than their peers to be happy. Here’s a secret: Life isn’t a competition. It’s a journey. If you spend that journey always trying to impress other, to outdo others, you’re wasting it. Instead, learn to enjoy the journey. Make it a journey of happiness, of constant learning, of continual improvement, of love. Find your passion, and pursue it doggedly. Life is too short to settle for a job that pays the bills．

【5】 _____________________________

If there’s a single word you should live your life by, it should be this: Love. It, I know, might sound corny, but trust me, there’s no better rule in life. Some would live by the rule of success. Their lives will be stressful, unhappy and shallow. Others would live by the rule of selfishness. They will live lonely and unhappy lives. Live your life by the rule of love. Love your spouse, children, parents, friends, with all of your heart. Love not only your loved ones, but your neighbours, coworkers, strangers, even your enemy. And most of all, love yourself. While others criticize you, learn not to be so hard on yourself, to think that you’re ugly or dumb or unworthy of love. Instead, learn to love yourself for who you are．

Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are starting out on a weird, scary, daunting, but ultimately incredibly wonderful journey. And I will be there for you when I can．

Love,

Your Dad
