Alzheimer’s Disease: Are We Close to Finding a Cure?
First described in 1906 by Dr.Alois Alzheimer, Alzheimer s disease is the most common form. of dementia, accounting for around 60%–80% of cases.It is characterized by problems with memory, thinking and behavior.Onset is most common in individuals aged 65 and over, although people in their 40s and 50s can develop what is classed as early - onset Alzheimer’s.
Alzheimer’s is a progressive disease, meaning memory loss is mild in the beginning, but it worsens over time to the extent that individuals are unable to have conversations or respond to their surroundings.There are treatments that have been approved by the US
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Alzheimer’s.For example, cholinesterase inhibitors and memantine can help treat memory and thinking problems.But these drugs just help manage the symptoms; there is currently no cure for the disease.
Current Alzheimer’s prevalence in the US makes it the 6th leading cause of death, killing more than half a million seniors every year.To put this in perspective, Alzheimer’s disease currently kills more people each year than prostate cancer and breast cancer combined.There is no doubt that scientists across the world are working hard to find ways to prevent, treat and cure this debilitating condition.Hardly a day goes by without coming across a report about how scientists restored memory and learning deficits in Alzheimer’s mouse models, how vitamin D deficiency could increase the risk of developing dementia, and how DNA methylation in the brain is linked to Alzheimer’s.But what have these studies taught researchers about Alzheimer’s so far?
Preventing and Targeting Plaques and Tangles
As with all diseases, knowing exactly what causes Alzheimer’s is key to identifying ways to prevent and treat the condition.Past research has indicated that Alzheimer’s occurs when two abnormal brain structures — plaques and tangles —damage and kill nerve cells, causing the memory, thinking and behavioral problems associated wit
1.Dementia is not a single disease in itself, but a general term to describe symptoms of impairment in memory, communication, and thinking.()
2.The FDA - approved drugs, like cholinesterase inhibitors and memantine, can cure Alzheimer’s disease.()
3.chronic sleep deprivation may cause these abnormal brain structures.()
4.Tangles are fragments of a protein called beta - amyloid, which build up in areas between nerve cells.()
5.As a result of Alzheimer’s research, there are an array of drugs in development that scientists believe have great potential to effectively treat the disease.()

Sylvester is keeping track of the distortions, and he already has quite a long list. He says that all housewives seem to live in lovely homes, dress beautifully, and love their household chores. They smile and boast about floor waxes and proudly display their dirty laundry, dusty tabletops, and filthy ovens. In addition, he has never seen men doing housework. Sylvester thinks that this view of family life is filled with distortions.I am keeping track of the people who appear in the advertisements. I have found handsome men courting the All-American Girl, and they are always recommending brand X toothpaste or brand Y cologne. I see teenagers and children surrounded by their friends, having wonderful times at parties and at school, and they are usually enjoying large harmonious family gatherings. I think that these advertisements are also filled with fantasy.Sylvester and I have concluded that much of American life is pictured unrealistically in commercials. Teenagers do not always have fun at parties, and very few people love doing chores. People do have problems, but few of these are ever shown in commercials. Instead, we watch Cinderella (灰姑娘) discover a miracle floor wax, finish the kitchen chores, and waltz off to the ball. Our heads are filled with these fantasies, and they also suggest that, for any problem, brand Z will provide the instant cure. Sylvester and I will have very few facts and a lot of fantasy to write about in our research reports.
1.Judging from the context, Sylvester and the author are most probably ____.
A、classmates
B、teacher and student
C、father and son
D、research workers
2.Sylvester has found that in advertisements housewives ____.
A、are sad and tired
B、enjoy doing their housework
C、have their husbands help them
D、never touch dirty things

A、interesting
B、wonderful
C、unrealistic
D、true to life
4.Sylvester and the author have come to the conclusion that commercials ____.
A、truly reflect American life
B、lack in fantasy
C、seldom give expression to people's real problems
D、give great fun to children
5.The most suitable title for the passage would be ____.
A、A Class Research Project

【题目描述】
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Television has opened windows in everybody's life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the sc-Teen.
Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.
Unfortunately, television's influence has been extremely harnfful to the young. (79) Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the "television generations" are more violent than their parents and grandparents.
Also, the young are less patient. (80) Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That's the time it takes on the screen.

B. went in for politics
C. liked to save the wounded in wars

第6题
The immediate problem is poverty. Most of Africa is urbanising at a lower level of income than other regions of the world did. That means there's little money around for investment that would make cities liveable and more productive. Without upgrades and new capacity, bridges, roads and power systems are unable to cope with expanding populations. With the exception of South Africa, the only light rail metro system in sub-Saharan Africa is in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Traffic jam leads to expense and unpredictability, things that keep investors away.
In other parts of the world, increasing agricultural productivity and industrialisation went together. More productive farmers meant there was a surplus that could feed cities; in turn, that created a pool of labour for factories. But African cities are different. They are too often built around consuming natural resources. Government is concentrated in capitals, so is the money. Most urban Africans work for a small minority of the rich, who tend to be involved in either cronyish (有裙带关系的) businesses or politics. Since African agriculture is still broadly unproductive, food is imported, consuming a portion of revenue.
So what can be done? Though African countries are poor, not all African cities are. In Lagos, foreign oil workers can pay as much as 65,000 dollars per year in rent for a modest apartment in a safe part of town. If that income were better taxed, it might provide the revenue for better infrastructure. If city leaders were more accountable to their residents, they might favour projects designed to help them more. Yet even as new roads are built, new people arrive. When a city's population grows by 5% a year, it is difficult to keep up.
76.What do we learn from the passage about cities in sub-Saharan Africa____
A.They have more slums than other cities in the world.
B.They are growing fast without becoming richer.
C.They are as modernised as many cities elsewhere.
D.They attract migrants who want to be better off.
77.What does the author imply about urbanisation in other parts of the world____
A.It benefited from the contribution of immigrants.
B.It started when people's income was relatively high.
C.It benefited from the accelerated rise in productivity.
D.It started with the improvement of peopled livelihood.
78.Why is sub-Saharan Africa unappealing to investors____
A.It lacks adequate transport facilities.
B.The living expenses there are too high.
C.It is on the whole too densely populated.
D.The local governments are corrupted.
79.In what way does the author say African cities are different____
A.They have attracted huge numbers of farm labourers.
B.They still rely heavily on agricultural productivity.
C.They have developed at the expense of nature.
D.They depend far more on foreign investment.
80.What might be a solution to the problems facing African cities____
A.Lowering of apartment rent.
B.Better education for residents.
C.More rational overall planning.
D.A more responsible government.
