People have been wondering why elephants do not develop cancer even though they have lifespans (寿命) that are similar to humans, jiving for around 50 to 70 years.Now scientists believe they know why. A team at the University of Chicago, US has found that elephants carry a large

20、 number of genes that stop tumors (肿瘤) developing. To be precise, they found 20 copies of an anti-tumor gene called TP53 in elephants. Most other species, including humans, only carry one copy.According to the research, the extra copies of the gene improved the animals sensitivity to DNA damage, whi

21、ch lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged before they can go on to form deadly tumors.“An increased risk of developing cancer has stood in the way of the evolution of large body sizes in many animals,” the study author Dr Vincent Lynch told The Guardian. If every living cell has the sam

22、e chance of becoming cancerous (癌变的), large creatures with a long lifespan like whales and elephants should have a greater risk of developing cancer than humans and mice. But across species, the risk of cancer does not show a connection with body mass.This phenomenon was found by Oxford University s

23、cientist Richard Peto in the 1970s and later named “Petos paradox (悖论)”. Biologists believe it results from larger animals using protection that many smaller animals do not. In the elephants case, the making of TP53 is natures way of keeping this species alive.The study also found that when the same

24、 genes were brought to life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance as elephants. This means researchers could use the discovery to develop new treatments that can help stop cancers spreading or even developing in the first place.“Nature has already figured out how to prevent cancer,” said Josh

25、ua Schiffman, a biologist at the School of Medicine, University of Utah, US. “Its up to us to learn how different animals deal with the problem so that we can use those strategies to prevent cancer in people.”12. Why are elephants unlikely to develop cancer?A. They have a rather large body size.B. T

In the nine-tenth century, a usual American activity was

34、 to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at the time, nor movie theaters, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversion. However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self - education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond one

35、s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.How did things change? Why ar

36、e most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry , and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems?There are, I believe, three factors: poets, teachers, and we ourselves. Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed (背叛) us more than we have betrayed the poem. Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions unfavor-able to reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at
