It was smething rather irregular at an therwise regular bard f appeals meeting in Maine. A resident wanted a permissin fr nt bserving the n-chicken rule. But this wasn’t just any resident. It was C-Jay Martin, 25, wh is blind and has epilepsy (癫痫) and autism. Chickens are what brught C-Jay jy despite his challenges. “Having smething t share with ther peple was imprtant t him,” said his mther, Amy Martin.
But Bangr is nt OK with chickens. In fact, city rules clearly prhibit residents frm keeping “fwl, gats, sheep, cattle r swine f any kind” and the municipal gvernment urges the residents t bey the rules strictly. S, wuld the staid New England city f 31,000 make an exceptin fr C-Jay and his emtinal supprt hens?
It was with high hpes that Martin headed t the therwise rdinary municipal meeting earlier this mnth. She tld the appeals bard she gt the chickens in April after researching the Fair Husing Act, which prhibits discriminatin in husing by landlrds r municipalities, and finding it might allw her sn an accmmdatin.
She was jined by neighbrs and cmmunity members wh shwed up t supprt C-Jay and his chickens. One nted C-Jay regularly assumes the respnsibility f feeding the chickens, despite his disabilities. Anther said their cing and sft nises are clearly a cmfrt t C-Jay. Others said Martin and C-Jay keep the chickens’ area in their yard very clean.
But there were sme cmplaints. Sme raised cncerns abut whether the presence f the chickens culd attract rdents (齿类动物), and didn’t want an exceptin fr C-Jay t pen the dr fr thers t keep banned animals.
City fficials, seeming t side with C-Jay and his flck, assured attendees that n increased rdent activity wuld nt be tlerated and any livestck permissin wuld nly apply t C-Jay Martin at his huse.
In the end, it reached a cnsensus: the appeals bard ruled that C-Jay had a need fr the chickens. He wuld be allwed t keep them, althugh limits n the number were set, and nisy rsters prhibited.
Martin said her sn is relieved and that his belved chickens will stay. “When he’s sitting utside listening t an audibk, r just hanging ut in the backyard with the sun shining, he always knws where they are because he can hear them,” she said. “He’s never really alne.”

Researchers have claimed a majr step frward in the field f rgan transplantatin after a mnkey survived fr mre than tw years with a genetically engineered pig kidney.
Scientists have spent decades wrking ut whether animal rgans culd ever wrk prperly and safely in humans withut them being rejected by the patient’s immune system, but the challenges have prved immense.
Fr the latest trial, researchers used a gene-editing tl called Crispr t alter genes in Yucatan miniature pigs befre transplanting their kidneys int macaques (猕猴). The mdificatins altered genes t prevent rgan rejectin and remve pig viruses that culd ptentially be activated in recipients.
Writing in the jurnal Nature, the scientists describe hw 21 mnkeys gt n after their kidneys were remved and a single genetically mdified pig kidney was implanted. Mnkeys typically survived n mre than 24 days when the kidneys were edited t disable three genes that triggered immune rejectin. But when the scientists added seven human genes that reduce bld cltting (结块), inflammatin and ther immune reactins, the mnkeys survived seven times lnger, typically fr 176 days. When cmbined with treatment t restrain the immune system, the researchers reprt that ne mnkey survived fr mre than tw years — 758 days — with the transplanted rgan.
Curtis, the chief executive f eGenesis, said the lng-term survival f at least sme f the mnkeys had put eGenesis n curse t satisfy the US Fd and Drug Administratin requirement t see at least 12 mnths’ survival in animals befre the team can launch a clinical trial in humans. “We are well n ur way there,” Curtis said. “There simply aren’t enugh kidneys t g arund. In ur pinin it’s the nly near-term practicable slutin.”
The team uses Yucatan miniature pigs as dnrs because at maturity their kidneys are rughly the same size f thse in the adult human. In the mnkey trial, the kidneys were transplanted at tw t three mnths when the rgans were much smaller.
Prf Tatsu Kawai, an authr n the study at Harvard Medical Schl, said the scientists expected the mdified pig rgans t perfrm better in humans than mnkeys because “they are a better match”.
8. What d researchers d with the Yucatan miniature pigs?
A. They altered their immune systems.B. They changed their genes t prevent rejectin.
C. They used them t prduce a gene-editing tl.D. They transplanted their kidneys int human beings.
9. Which f the fllwing statements is true?
A. The 21 mnkeys were implanted with a healthy pig kidney.
B. The mnkeys usually survived less than 24 days previusly.
C. Researchers remved three genes causing immune rejectins frm the kidneys.
D. Mnkeys can survive much lnger if their genes are mdified prperty.
10. What’s Curtis’ attitude twards the result f the experiment?
A. Dissatisfied.B. Dubtful.C. Cntent.D. Indifferent.
11. What’s the main idea f the passage?
A Mnkey survives fr ver tw years with a genetically engineered pig kidney.
B. A big breakthrugh has been made in the field f rgan transplantatin.
C. Animal rgans can wrk in an effective way in the bdies f human beings.
D. It’s high time t make sme adjustments t human immune system.

A cmment frm Zadie Smith caught my attentin this week. Asked whether she had ever cnsidered recrding an album, the nvelist respnded, “I have a dream f having a Café Carlyle residency in New Yrk in my 80s.” Here she is at the height f her success dreaming f a career Plan B just like the rest f us!
Weird Plan Bs fascinate me because fr years I had ne f my wn. Despite being perfectly happy in my chsen prfessin, I had lng harbured the fantasy f becming a phtgrapher and I tk a lckdwn leap and applied t art schl t acquire sme actual skills.
Has it brught me fame and riches? Nt as yet. Like many peple wh dream f having a g at smething different, I was fcusing n creative fulfilment rather than my future finances. By the time I graduated in 2022, my dream f running a prtrait phtgraphy business was lking a lt less practicable—in part thanks t AI head-sht generatrs.
If nly I had had a little mre Fb, als knwn as the fear f becming ut-f-date. This wrkplace trend is an updated versin f Fm—the fear f missing ut, which nw feels like a pignant (辛酸的) thrwback t mre ptimistic times. 22% f wrkers are wrried that technlgy will put them ut f a jb. And wh can blame them?
There is anther reasn that nurturing an alterative career might be risky. Research indicates that having a back-up plan can wrk against yu. Having a Plan B as a safety net can cause peple t make less effrt at their day jb and — unhelpfully — run a greater risk f lsing it.
S, d I regret pursuing my Plan B? Nt at all — hpefully I’ve gt a few years befre rbt phtgraphers take ver the wrld, and I currently spend a day a week n phtgraphy. My nly srrw is smething unexpected. Fr s many years. I had the fantasy f trying smething new. My “smeday” ambitin sustained me thrugh dull and bring days. But nw I’m actually spending sme f my week ding it, which has caused empty space in my life. It made me realize that having an alternative career t dream abut is in itself sustaining and cmfrting. Yu might never d it, and that might nt even matter. S, if yu’ll excuse me, I need t g and start wrking n my Plan C...
12. Why did Zadie Smith want t have a Cafe Carlyle residency?
A. She was nt satisfied with her writing career.
B. She was eager t take up a secnd career.
C. She was depressed by recrding an album.
D. She was unable t reach the height f success.
13. What d yu knw abut the authr’s plan B?
A. She was a skilled phtgrapher wh graduated frm an art schl.
B. She gave up her chsen ccupatin because f lckdwn.
C. She gained a sense f creative satisfactin instead f incme.
D. She ran a phtgraphy business with the assistance f AI.
14. Why did the authr mentin the cncepts f Fb and Fm in paragraph 4?
A. T explain why wrkers are eager t d plan
B. T intrduce ne f the disadvantages t d plan B.
C. T advcate the sciety’s acceptance f plan B.
D. T display the future f trend f the wrkfrce.
15. What’s the authr’s “nly srrw” accrding t the last paragraph?
A. She will be replaced by rbt phtgrapher in the future.
B. She can’t spare time t d phtgraphy prfessinally.
C. She hates the dull and bring days in ding phtgraphy.
D. She lst smething new t excite sme enthusiasm fr life.

When Dr. Gulliksn was assigning prject mates fr his intrductin t experimental psychlgy class, I secretly hped he wuld pair me with my best friend r at least a classmate I culd have sme fun with. Abve all, I hped he wuldn’t assign me t wrk with the fiercely cmpetitive, extremely serius fellw wh always wre dark clthes and apparently had a persnality t match.

I went up t my new lab mate and intrduced myself. He lked at me as if I weren’t there. I felthe treated me as if I wuld hld him back and prbably make him fail t get an A in the curse. He wasn’t mean r abusive (恶语相向的). He just gave me the impressin he culd d whatever prject better if he did it alne.
Needless t say, I didn’t lk frward t an entire term f being brushed ff (冷落), but I tried t make the best f it and didn’t say anything fr fear that I wuld make things wrse.
The prject required each lab team t develp a hypthesis (假说), set up an experiment t test the hypthesis, d the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received wuld be shared by bth students. When my teammate and I met t discuss ur prject, I was uneasy.

It was smething rather irregular at an therwise regular bard f appeals meeting in Maine. A resident wanted a permissin fr nt bserving the n-chicken rule. But this wasn’t just any resident. It was C-Jay Martin, 25, wh is blind and has epilepsy (癫痫) and autism. Chickens are what brught C-Jay jy despite his challenges. “Having smething t share with ther peple was imprtant t him,” said his mther, Amy Martin.
But Bangr is nt OK with chickens. In fact, city rules clearly prhibit residents frm keeping “fwl, gats, sheep, cattle r swine f any kind” and the municipal gvernment urges the residents t bey the rules strictly. S, wuld the staid New England city f 31,000 make an exceptin fr C-Jay and his emtinal supprt hens?
It was with high hpes that Martin headed t the therwise rdinary municipal meeting earlier this mnth. She tld the appeals bard she gt the chickens in April after researching the Fair Husing Act, which prhibits discriminatin in husing by landlrds r municipalities, and finding it might allw her sn an accmmdatin.
She was jined by neighbrs and cmmunity members wh shwed up t supprt C-Jay and his chickens. One nted C-Jay regularly assumes the respnsibility f feeding the chickens, despite his disabilities. Anther said their cing and sft nises are clearly a cmfrt t C-Jay. Others said Martin and C-Jay keep the chickens’ area in their yard very clean.
But there were sme cmplaints. Sme raised cncerns abut whether the presence f the chickens culd attract rdents (齿类动物), and didn’t want an exceptin fr C-Jay t pen the dr fr thers t keep banned animals.
City fficials, seeming t side with C-Jay and his flck, assured attendees that n increased rdent activity wuld nt be tlerated and any livestck permissin wuld nly apply t C-Jay Martin at his huse.
In the end, it reached a cnsensus: the appeals bard ruled that C-Jay had a need fr the chickens. He wuld be allwed t keep them, althugh limits n the number were set, and nisy rsters prhibited.
Martin said her sn is relieved and that his belved chickens will stay. “When he’s sitting utside listening t an audibk, r just hanging ut in the backyard with the sun shining, he always knws where they are because he can hear them,” she said. “He’s never really alne.”

Researchers have claimed a majr step frward in the field f rgan transplantatin after a mnkey survived fr mre than tw years with a genetically engineered pig kidney.
Scientists have spent decades wrking ut whether animal rgans culd ever wrk prperly and safely in humans withut them being rejected by the patient’s immune system, but the challenges have prved immense.
Fr the latest trial, researchers used a gene-editing tl called Crispr t alter genes in Yucatan miniature pigs befre transplanting their kidneys int macaques (猕猴). The mdificatins altered genes t prevent rgan rejectin and remve pig viruses that culd ptentially be activated in recipients.
Writing in the jurnal Nature, the scientists describe hw 21 mnkeys gt n after their kidneys were remved and a single genetically mdified pig kidney was implanted. Mnkeys typically survived n mre than 24 days when the kidneys were edited t disable three genes that triggered immune rejectin. But when the scientists added seven human genes that reduce bld cltting (结块), inflammatin and ther immune reactins, the mnkeys survived seven times lnger, typically fr 176 days. When cmbined with treatment t restrain the immune system, the researchers reprt that ne mnkey survived fr mre than tw years — 758 days — with the transplanted rgan.
Curtis, the chief executive f eGenesis, said the lng-term survival f at least sme f the mnkeys had put eGenesis n curse t satisfy the US Fd and Drug Administratin requirement t see at least 12 mnths’ survival in animals befre the team can launch a clinical trial in humans. “We are well n ur way there,” Curtis said. “There simply aren’t enugh kidneys t g arund. In ur pinin it’s the nly near-term practicable slutin.”
The team uses Yucatan miniature pigs as dnrs because at maturity their kidneys are rughly the same size f thse in the adult human. In the mnkey trial, the kidneys were transplanted at tw t three mnths when the rgans were much smaller.
Prf Tatsu Kawai, an authr n the study at Harvard Medical Schl, said the scientists expected the mdified pig rgans t perfrm better in humans than mnkeys because “they are a better match”.
8. What d researchers d with the Yucatan miniature pigs?
A. They altered their immune systems.B. They changed their genes t prevent rejectin.
C. They used them t prduce a gene-editing tl.D. They transplanted their kidneys int human beings.
9. Which f the fllwing statements is true?
A. The 21 mnkeys were implanted with a healthy pig kidney.
B. The mnkeys usually survived less than 24 days previusly.
C. Researchers remved three genes causing immune rejectins frm the kidneys.
D. Mnkeys can survive much lnger if their genes are mdified prperty.
10. What’s Curtis’ attitude twards the result f the experiment?
A. Dissatisfied.B. Dubtful.C. Cntent.D. Indifferent.
11. What’s the main idea f the passage?
A Mnkey survives fr ver tw years with a genetically engineered pig kidney.
B. A big breakthrugh has been made in the field f rgan transplantatin.
C. Animal rgans can wrk in an effective way in the bdies f human beings.
D. It’s high time t make sme adjustments t human immune system.

A cmment frm Zadie Smith caught my attentin this week. Asked whether she had ever cnsidered recrding an album, the nvelist respnded, “I have a dream f having a Café Carlyle residency in New Yrk in my 80s.” Here she is at the height f her success dreaming f a career Plan B just like the rest f us!
Weird Plan Bs fascinate me because fr years I had ne f my wn. Despite being perfectly happy in my chsen prfessin, I had lng harbured the fantasy f becming a phtgrapher and I tk a lckdwn leap and applied t art schl t acquire sme actual skills.
Has it brught me fame and riches? Nt as yet. Like many peple wh dream f having a g at smething different, I was fcusing n creative fulfilment rather than my future finances. By the time I graduated in 2022, my dream f running a prtrait phtgraphy business was lking a lt less practicable—in part thanks t AI head-sht generatrs.
If nly I had had a little mre Fb, als knwn as the fear f becming ut-f-date. This wrkplace trend is an updated versin f Fm—the fear f missing ut, which nw feels like a pignant (辛酸的) thrwback t mre ptimistic times. 22% f wrkers are wrried that technlgy will put them ut f a jb. And wh can blame them?
There is anther reasn that nurturing an alterative career might be risky. Research indicates that having a back-up plan can wrk against yu. Having a Plan B as a safety net can cause peple t make less effrt at their day jb and — unhelpfully — run a greater risk f lsing it.
S, d I regret pursuing my Plan B? Nt at all — hpefully I’ve gt a few years befre rbt phtgraphers take ver the wrld, and I currently spend a day a week n phtgraphy. My nly srrw is smething unexpected. Fr s many years. I had the fantasy f trying smething new. My “smeday” ambitin sustained me thrugh dull and bring days. But nw I’m actually spending sme f my week ding it, which has caused empty space in my life. It made me realize that having an alternative career t dream abut is in itself sustaining and cmfrting. Yu might never d it, and that might nt even matter. S, if yu’ll excuse me, I need t g and start wrking n my Plan C...
12. Why did Zadie Smith want t have a Cafe Carlyle residency?
A. She was nt satisfied with her writing career.
B. She was eager t take up a secnd career.
C. She was depressed by recrding an album.
D. She was unable t reach the height f success.
13. What d yu knw abut the authr’s plan B?
A. She was a skilled phtgrapher wh graduated frm an art schl.
B. She gave up her chsen ccupatin because f lckdwn.
C. She gained a sense f creative satisfactin instead f incme.
D. She ran a phtgraphy business with the assistance f AI.
14. Why did the authr mentin the cncepts f Fb and Fm in paragraph 4?
A. T explain why wrkers are eager t d plan
B. T intrduce ne f the disadvantages t d plan B.
C. T advcate the sciety’s acceptance f plan B.
D. T display the future f trend f the wrkfrce.
15. What’s the authr’s “nly srrw” accrding t the last paragraph?

When Dr. Gulliksn was assigning prject mates fr his intrductin t experimental psychlgy class, I secretly hped he wuld pair me with my best friend r at least a classmate I culd have sme fun with. Abve all, I hped he wuldn’t assign me t wrk with the fiercely cmpetitive, extremely serius fellw wh always wre dark clthes and apparently had a persnality t match. As fate wuld have it, Dr. Gulliksn very deliberately matched everyne in class and annunced that I wuld be wrking with the ne persn in class I wanted t avid.
I went up t my new lab mate and intrduced myself. He lked at me as if I weren’t there. I felthe treated me as if I wuld hld him back and prbably make him fail t get an A in the curse. He wasn’t mean r abusive (恶语相向的). He just gave me the impressin he culd d whatever prject better if he did it alne.
Needless t say, I didn’t lk frward t an entire term f being brushed ff (冷落), but I tried t make the best f it and didn’t say anything fr fear that I wuld make things wrse.
The prject required each lab team t develp a hypthesis (假说), set up an experiment t test the hypthesis, d the statistical analysis and present the findings. Whatever grade the team received wuld be shared by bth students. When my teammate and I met t discuss ur prject, I was uneasy.
