Cardiologists have pioneered the world's first non-surgical
bypass operation to turn a vein into an artery using a new technique to divert
blood flow in a man with severe heart disease. 41.
______________________ Although major heart surgery is becoming
commonplace, with more than 28,000 bypass operations in the UK annually, it is
traumatic for patients and involves a long recovery period. The
new technique was carried out by an international team of doctors who performed
the non-invasive surgery on a 53-year-old German patient. 42.
______________________ According to a special report in
Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association, cardiologists developed
a special catheter (导管)which was inserted into one of :his leg arteries,
threaded up through the aorta (主动脉) to the top of the diseased artery, which was
the only part still open and receiving blood. 43.
______________________ A thin, flexible wire was threaded
through the needle and the needle and catheter were with- drawn, leaving the
wire behind and a small angioplasty(血管成形术) balloon, which was used to widen the
channel. Finally, the vein was blocked off just above the new channel allowing
blood from the artery to be re-routed down the vein. 44.
______________________ Dr. Stephen Oesterle, who led the team,
said: "This milestone marks the first coronary artery bypass performed with a
catheter. The technology offers a realistic hope for truly minimally invasive
bypass procedures in the future." Dr. Oasterle is director of
cardiology at Massachusetts General Hospital and associate professor of medicine
at Harvard Medical School in Boston. Melanie Haddon, cardiac nurse at the
British Heart Foundation, said it was likely to be many years before the
procedure was routinely used in hospitals. "Non-invasive surgery, such as this
new method, could help minimize the risks, bringing great benefits to the
patient." A clot-busting drug combined with 10-minute spurts of
exercise has been found to grow new blood vessels in children with heart
disease. 45. ______________________ X-rays
showed that over a five month period a network of tiny new blood vessels formed
in two of the patients. In all seven individuals, the treatment was associated
with improved blood flow to the heart muscle in the areas around the
blockage.[A] In every case, the therapy increased the size of the blocked
artery allowing more blood to pass through.[B] The diabetic patient, who has
not been named, had suffered severe chest pains because one of his coronary
arteries was severely blocked and depriving his heart muscle of oxygen, but he
was considered by doctors to be unsuitable for traditional bypass
surgery.[C] Then, guided by ultra-sound a physician pushed a needle from
inside the catheter through the artery wall and into the adjacent vein.[D]
The keyhole procedure, which avoids the extensive invasive surgery of a
conventional bypass, will offer hope to tens of thousands of people at risk from
heart attacks. Coronary heart disease, where the arteries are progressively
silted up with fatty deposits, is responsible in a major industrial country like
Britain for more than 160,000 deaths each year.[E] After the procedure, the
vein effectively became an artery, carrying blood in the reverse direction from
the previous way, and feeding the starved heart tissue with oxygen.[F]
Researchers in Japan studied seven children and teenagers, aged 6 to 19, who had
a totally blocked artery and could not be helped by surgery. They were asked to
exercise on a bicycle ma- chine twice a day for 10 days and given the
anti-clotting drug before each session.[G] It is very premature to suggest
that this technique will significantly reduce the need for coronary bypass
surgery in the near future. It won't be a solution for everyone. The reality is
that veins are not always located that close to an artery, so it wouldn't work
under certain circumstances.

填空题Even if we could make it impossible for people to commit crimes, should we? Or would doing so improperly deprive people of their freedom?
This may sound like a fanciful concern, but it is an increasingly real one. The new federal transportation bill, for example, authorized funding for a program that seeks to prevent the crime of drunken driving not by raising public consciousness or issuing stiffer punishments — but by making the crime practically impossible to commit.
1
______
The Dadss program is part of a trend toward what I call the "perfect prevention" of crime: depriving people of the choice to commit an offense in the first place. The federal government"s Intelligent Transportation Systems program, which is creating technology to share data among vehicles and road infrastructure like traffic lights, could make it impossible for a driver to speed or run a red light.
2
______
Such technologies force us to reconcile two important interests. On one hand is society"s desire for safety and security. On the other hand is the individual"s right to act freely. Conventional crime prevention balances these interests by allowing individuals the freedom to commit crime, but punishing them if they do.
The perfect prevention of crime asks us to consider exactly how far individual freedom extends. Does freedom include a "right" to drive drunk, for instance? It is hard to imagine that it does.
3
______
For most familiar crimes (murder, robbery, rape, arson), the law requires that the actor have some guilty state of mind, whether it is intent, recklessness or negligence.
4
______
In such cases, using technology to prevent the crime entirely would not unduly burden individual freedom ; it would simply be effective enforcement of the statute. Because there is no mental state required to be guilty of the offense, the government could require, for instance, that drug manufacturers apply a special tamper-proof coating to all pills, thus making the sale of tainted drugs practically impossible, without intruding on the thoughts of any future seller.
But because the government must not intrude on people"s thoughts, perfect prevention is a bad fit for most offenses.
5
______ Even if this could be known, perhaps with the help of some sort of neurological scan, collecting such knowledge would violate an individual"s freedom of thought.
Perfect prevention is a politically attractive approach to crime prevention, and for strict liability crimes it is permissible and may be good policy if implemented properly. But for most offenses, the threat to individual freedom is too great to justify this approach. This is not because people have a right to commit crimes; they do not. Rather, perfect prevention threatens our right to be free in our thoughts, even when those thoughts turn to crime.
[A] But there is a category of crimes that are forbidden regardless of the actor"s state of mind: so-called strict-liability offenses. One example is the sale of tainted drugs. Another is drunken driving.
[B] The Dadss program, despite its effectiveness in preventing drunk driving, is criticized as a violation of human rights because it monitors drivers" behavior and controls individual"s free will.
[C] And the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 has already criminalized the development of technologies that can be used to avoid copyright restrictions, making it effectively impossible for most people to illegally share certain copyrighted materials, including video games.
[D] If the actor doesn"t have the guilty state of mind, and he commits crime involuntarily, in this case, the actor will be convicted as innocent.
[E] Perfect prevention of a crime like murder would require the ability to know what a person was thinking in order to determine whether he possessed the relevant culpable mental state.
[F] The program, the Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety (Dadss), is developing in vehicle technology that automatically checks a driver"s blood-alcohol level and, if that level is above the legal limit, prevents the car from starting.
[G] But what if the government were to add a drug to the water supply that suppressed antisocial urges and thereby reduced the murder rate? This would seem like an obvious violation of our freedom. We need a clear method of distinguishing such cases.
填空题{{B}}Passage One{{/B}}
Between 5,000 million and 4,000 million years ago the Earth
was formed, By 3,000 million years ago life had arisen and we have fossils of
microscopic bacteria-like creatures to prove it. {{U}} (66)
{{/U}}Nobody knows what happened, but theorists agree that the key was the
spontaneous arising of self-replicating entities, i. e. something equivalent to
"genes" in the general sense. The atmosphere of the early Earth
probably contained gases still abundant today on other planets in the solar
system. Chemists have experimentally reconstructed these ancient conditions in
the laboratory. If plausible gases are mixed in a flask with water, and energy
is added by an electric discharge (simulated lightning), organic sub-stances are
spontaneously synthesized. These include the building blocks of RNA and DNA. It
seems probable that something like this happened on the early Earth.
Consequently, the sea would have become a "soup" of prebiological organic
compounds.{{U}} (67) {{/U}} Today the most famous
self-replicating molecule is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), but it is widely
thought that DNA itself could not have been present at the origin of life
because its replication is too dependent on support from specialized machinery,
which could not have been available before evolution itself began. DNA has been
described as a" high-tech" molecule which probably arose some time after the
origin of life itself. Perhaps the related molecule RNA, which still plays
various vital roles in living cells, was the original self-replicating molecule.
Or perhaps the primordial replicator was a different kind of molecule
altogether.{{U}} (68) {{/U}}Variants that were particularly good at
replication would automatically have come to predominate in the primeval soup.
Varieties that did not replicate, or that did so inaccurately, would have become
relatively less numerous. This led to ever-increasing efficiency among
replicating molecules. As the competition between replicating
molecules warmed up, success must have gone to the ones: hat happened to hit
upon special tricks or devices for their own self-preservation and their own
rapid replication. The rest of evolution may be regarded as a continuation of
the natural selection of replicator molecules, now called genes, by virtue of
their capacity to build for themselves efficient devices (cells and
multicellular bodies) for their own preservation and reproduction.{{U}} (69)
{{/U}} Fossils were not laid down on more than a small scale
until the Cambrian era, nearly 600 million years ago. The first vertebrates may
date back 530 million years, according to fossil evidence--primitive, lawless
fishes with fins, gills, and fish-like muscle patterns--found in China in 1999.
Vertebrates appear abundantly in fossil beds between 300 and 400 million years
ago.{{U}} (70) {{/U}} Mammals and, later, birds, arose
from two different branches of reptiles. The rapid divergence of mammals into
the rich variety of types that we see today, from opossums to elephants, from
anteaters to monkeys, seems to have been unleashed into the vacuum left by the
catastrophic extinction of the dinosaurs, 65 million years ago.
A. Among vertebrates, the land was first colonized by lobe-finned and
lung-bearing fish about 250 million years ago, then by amphibians and, in more
thoroughgoing fashion, by various kinds of animals that we loosely lump together
as reptiles. B. Once self-replicating molecules had been formed
by chance, something like Darwinian natural selection could have begun:
variation would have come into the population because of random errors in
copying. C. It is not enough, of course, that organic molecules
appeared in the primeval soup. The crucial step, as noted above, was the origin
of self-replicating molecules, molecules capable of copying
themselves. D. Although we naturally emphasize the evolution of
our own kind--the vertebrates, the mammals, and the primates--these constitute
only a small branch of the great tree of life. E. Three thousand
million years is a long time, and it seems to have been long enough to have
produced such astonishingly complex contrivances as the vertebrate body and the
insect body. F. Some time between these two dates--independent
molecular evidence suggests about 4,000 million years ago--that mysterious
event, the origin of life, must have occurred.

填空题Of all the memorials which are offered to a university by the gratitude of her sons, there are none which serve so closely and fully the purposes of her life as those monuments which commemorate her dead heroes. The most important part of teaching of a place like Yale is found in the lessons of public spirit and devotion to high ideas which it gives. These things can in some measure be learned in books of poetry and of history. They can in some measure be learned from daily life of the college and the sentiments which it inculcates. But they are most solemnly and vividly brought home by visible signs, such as this gateway furnishes, that the spirit of ancient heroism is not dead, and that its highest lessons are not lost.
