Desperately ill and seeking a miracle, David Bennett Sr. tk the last bet n Jan. 7. when be became the first human t be successfully transplanted with the heart f a pig. “It creates the beat; it creates the pressure; it is his heart,” declared Bartley Griffith, directr f the surgical team that perfrmed the peratin at the University f Maryland Medical Center.
Bennett, 57, held n thrugh 60 tmrrws, far lnger than any previus patient wh’d received a heart frm anther species. His remarkable run ffered new hpe that such prcedures, knwn as xentransplantatin (异种移植), culd help relieve the shrtage f replacement rgans, saving thusands f lives each year.
The earliest attempts at xentransplantatin f rgans, invlving kidneys frm rabbits, gats, and ther animals, ccurred in the early 20th century, decades befre the first successful human-t-human transplants. Rejectin, which ccurs when the recipient’s bdy system recgnizes the dnr rgan as a freign bject and attacks it, fllwed within hurs r days. Results imprved after sme special drugs arrived in the 1960s, but mst recipients still died after a few weeks. The recrd fr a heart xentransplant was set in 1983, when an infant named Baby Fae survived fr 20 days with an rgan frm a babn (狒狒).
In recent years hwever, advances in gene editing have pened a new pssibility: re-edit sme genes in animals t prvide user-friendly spare parts. Pigs culd be ideal fr this purpse, because they’re easy t raise and reach adult human size in mnths. Sme bitech cmpanies. including Revivicr, are investing heavily in the field. The dnr pig was ffered by Revivicr frm a line f animals in which 10 genes had been re-edited t imprve the heart’s cnditin. Beynd that, the pig was raised in islatin and tested regularly fr viruses that culd infect humans r damage the rgan itself.
This medical breakthrugh prvided an alternative fr the 20% f patients n the heart transplant waiting list wh die while waiting r becme t sick t be a gd candidate.
8. What des the underlined wrd “run” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Dnating his heart t a patient.
B. Perfrming the heart peratin.
C. Living fr 60 days after the peratin.
D. Receiving a new heart frm a pig.
9. Which aspect f xentransplantatin des paragraph 3 mainly fcus n?
A. Its histry.B. Its prcedure.C. Its cnsequence.D. Its significance.
10. What makes pigs ideal fr prviding spare parts in xentransplantatin?
A. Their grwth rate and health cnditin.
B. Their life pattern and resistance t viruses.
C. Their easiness f keeping and rapid grwth.
D. Their investment value and natural qualities.
11. Why was Bennett’s peratin regarded as a breakthrugh?
A. It intrduced new medicatins t prevent rgan rejectin.
B. It prved the ptential fr using rgans frm varius animals.
C. It guaranteed a sufficient supply f dnr pigs fr transplants.
D. It ffered a prspect f replacement rgans thrugh gene editing.

Science is a prcess that builds upn existing theries and knwledge by cntinuusly revising them. Every aspect f scientific knwledge can be questined, including the general rules f thinking that appear t be mst certain. S why is science trustwrthy if it is always changing? If tmrrw we will n lnger see the wrld as Newtn r Einstein fund it t be, why shuld we take seriusly tday’s scientific descriptin f the wrld?
The answer is simple: Because at any given mment f ur histry, this descriptin f the wrld is the best we have. The fact that it can be made better can’t diminish (降低) the fact that it is a useful instrument fr understanding the wrld.
Cnsider a flk healer’s herbal medicine. Can we say this treatment is “scientific”? Yes, if it is prven t be effective, even if we have n idea why it wrks. In fact, quite a few cmmn medicatins used tday have their rigin in flk treatments, and we are still nt sure hw they wrk. This des nt imply that flk treatments are generally effective. T the cntrary, many f them are nt. What distinguishes scientific medicine is the readiness t seriusly test a treatment and t be ready t change ur minds if smething is shwn nt t wrk. A research dctr in a mdern hspital must be ready t change his thery if a mre effective way f understanding illness, r treating it, becmes available.
What makes mdern science uniquely pwerful is its refusal t believe that it already pssesses ultimate truth. The reliability f science is based nt n certainty but n a cmplete absence f certainty. As Jhn Stuart Mill wrte in “On Liberty” in 1859, “The beliefs which we have mst warrant (依据) fr, have n safeguard t rest n, but a standing invitatin t the whle wrld t prve them unfunded.”
12. Why des the authr raise the tw questins in paragraph 1?
A. T add sme fun.B. T express dubts.
C. T intrduce the tpic.D. T prvide backgrund.
13. What can we learn abut tday’s scientific descriptin f the wrld?
A. It can be timeless.B. It can be imprved.
C. It is f little value.D. It is the best at any mment.
14. What is the authr’s attitude tward flk treatment?
A. Dismissive.B. Objective.C. Pessimistic.D. Sympathetic.
15. What is the main idea f paragraph 4?
A. It is unwise t believe in science.
B. T much uncertainty lies in science.
C. The fundatin f science is unfunded.
D. The lack f certainty makes science credible.
