  __1____Painkillers in a tablet can make your headache go away. Antibiotic cream（抗生膏）from a tube can prevent your cuts from becoming infected. But can medicine come packaged in chicken eggs?

A team of scientists from Scotland says yes. They've engineered special chickens that lay eggs with disease-treating drugs inside.

  _2____Animals make thousands of proteins—they’re the main ingredient in skin, hair, milk, and meat. Since animals can make proteins easily, they’re good candidates for making protein drugs.

Researchers have already made cows, sheep, and goats that pump out protein drugs in their milk. But chickens are not expensive to take care of; what’s more, they need less room, and grow faster than these other animals. “  __3____”says Simon Lillico of the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, Scotland.

Lillico and a team of researchers changed chickens’ DNA—the code that tells cells how to make proteins so that the birds’ cells made two protein drugs.  __4____

The scientists altered the chickens’ DNA so that the birds made these drugs only in their egg whites (蛋清). This protects the chickens’ bodies from the drugs’ possible harmful effects and makes it easy for scientists to collect the drugs.

These special chickens can pass on their drug-laying abilities to their chicks.  __5____ The scientists need to improve these chickens before they roost (栖息) in drug companies’ labs. The birds don’t make enough drugs to treat people yet. But once the researchers perfect their technique, you might eventually take your medicine sunny-side up.

A．Medicine comes in lots of different uses.

B．Those qualities could make chickens a better choice to become living drug factories.

C．So far, the Scottish researchers have bred five generations of drug—producing birds.

D．Some chickens are found having the ability of treating diseases.

E. One drug can treat skin cancer, and the other treats a nerve disease called multiple sclerosis(硬化).

F. These drugs are made of molecules called proteins.

G. Medicine comes in lots of different packages.

E．What if I don’t win?

F．You can win as long as you try your best

G．Determine your issues and keep your promises

Convincing people to vote for you is probably the scariest part of an election．The best strategy is to show your fellow students that you will do a good job．How do you do this?

61．_________________________________________

Think about why you want to run and what you want to do if you win．These are your issues．Then let people know what you will do if elected．When you do this, be careful not to make promises you can’t keep．Make sure your issues affect all students．If you promise to try to get the whole school painted your favourite color, students probably won’t vote for you．But, if you promise to get rid of that yucky（令人反感的）lunch menu item that no one likes, or raise money for more computers in the library, students will see that you are interested in things they care about, and they’ll vote for you．

62．____________________________________________

Keep it short, simple, and interesting, and students will remember you．Start by writing down your issues and the reasons you think you’re a good person for the job．This is the heart of the speech and will convince other students to vote for you．Start with a story to get people listening and then move on to your issues．Practice your speech so you get used to it, and you won’t be as nervous．Ask your parents or friends to listen a couple of times before the big day．When the time comes to give your speech, relax．You’ll be ready and the other students will notice．

63．_____________________________________________

One of the best ways to get people to vote for you is to talk to them about it．Ask your friends to help．In many elections, people don’t vote at all．If you take the time to talk to them ,and remind them to vote, you’ll increase your chances of winning．Remind them why you’re running, and why they should vote for you．They’ll appreciate that you took the time to talk to them in person．And they’ll probably remember your name on the ballot（选票）!

64．_____________________________________________

When you make your campaign posters, use a catchy slogan that helps other students remember your name．It can help you win votes．If you have trouble coming up with a catchy slogan, try searching the Internet．Don’t depend solely on posters．Your fellow students have to know why you’re running, and that’s why your speech and networking are so important．

65．_______________________________________________

If you keep these things in mind, you can win your election．Just remember that you have to be prepared to work hard to help your fellow students improve your school．

If you don’t win, remember there are always other ways to get involved and make a difference．If students see that you get things done, you could easily win the next time．

Several Ways to Respectfully Disagree
It’s easier to agree than disagree. But we can learn a lot from conversations where we don’t see eye to eye—if we can listen and talk rationally(理性地), that is. _1  These tips can help keep disagreements constructive.
Don’t make it personal. If you get upset, it can help to remember you’re mad at the idea or concept your parent (or friend, coach, coworker, etc.) is raising, not the person.
Use “I” statements to communicate how you feel, what you think, and what you want or need. 2  For example, telling your mom or dad, “You always remind me about my chores on Wednesdays when you know I have a lot of homework” has a very different tone from “I’m feeling pressured because I have a lot of homework tonight. Can I do those chores tomorrow?”
 3  Being a good listener is a way of showing that you respect and understand the other person’s idea. That makes it more likely he or she will do the same for you. When the other person is talking, try to stop yourself from thinking about why you disagree or what you’ll say next. Instead, focus on what’s being said. When it’s your turn to talk, repeat back any key point the other person made to show you listened and heard what was said.  4  
Stay calm. This is the most important thing you can do to keep a conversation on track. Of course, it’s a huge challenge to stay calm and rational when you feel angry about something. You may need to be the mature one who manages the conversation.
 5  Being helpful and considerate toward family members, teachers, or coaches in our everyday actions helps all of us establish a foundation for those times when we might disagree.
