17、the day the tornado(龙卷风) hit, there was no si gn fierce weather was on its way the sky was blue and the sun had been out. The first warning my husband, Jimmy, 67, and I, 65, got came around 9 p.m., from some text on the TV Jimmy was watching. He ran upstairs to find me in our third-floor bedroom, an
18、d we changed the channel from the national television to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.Soon the tornado was on top of us. It was the loudest thing I have ever heard. The bones of the house shook, and the power went out. And the wind began to roar(咆哮) through the house, most likely through bl
19、own-out windows and the door to our garage. Everything was moving. And the back wall of the house came off and flew into the darkness outside. We had three flights of steps to get to - 6 -the storeroom down there, the relative safety of the first floor.I didnt know how or if we would make it down th
20、e steps. It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. As we finally reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Suddenly, a three-foot-long tree branch flew over our heads, missing us by inches.By the time I reached the storeroom, the tornado had
21、been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me down to the storeroom floor, but he couldnt get inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmys arm as the tornado blew the door open. My knees were full of glass, but I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the
22、 house.All of a sudden, Jimmy lifted off his feet. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet. In those first quiet moments, I couldnt believe it was over. Our neighbor says the storm lasted four minutes. In that time, four of the twelve town houses in our unit were co

25、ured. D. He got inside the storeroom.CLast year Congress issued a moral call to action when it ordered the National Institutes of Health to reevaluate its ethical oversight (伦理上的疏忽) of government-funded primate (灵长类) research. Although the scientific community widely sees nonhuman primates as essent
26、ial for advances in biomedicine - 7 -(they have caused major gains in the fights against AIDS and neurological diseases such as Parkinsons, for example), researchers agree more can be done to treat the animals more humanely and conduct research less wastefully. To that end, the NIH gathered famous s
27、cientists last September to discuss the future of primate-based researchand they agreed that data sharing is the way forward.Researchers could reduce experiments on nonhuman primates by studying data that have already been collected to answer new questions, says David OConnor, a pathologist at the U
28、niversity of WisconsinMadison. OConnor is walking the walk: his laboratory studies the Zika virus in primates, and he immediately posts all the results online. The goal is to figure out ways to fight Zika as quickly as possible without placing an undue burden on research primates. The Seattle-based
29、Allen Institute for Brain Science, which uses rhesus macaques, small South Asian monkeys, to study the molecular basis of brain development, also makes all results public. OConnor says this practice should be more widespread so that “researchers who are using this scarce but vital resource can learn
30、 as much as possible from as few animals as necessary.” Still, he is skeptical that data sharing will catch on because it would require a change in “normative behavior”sciences strong culture of secrecy, in which data are kept under wraps until they are published in a peer-reviewed journal. One step
31、 toward full transparency is to follow the lead of human clinical trials, says Christine Grady, a bioethicist at the NIH. U.S. law requires most clinical trials to register online and make their results public, even if a study fails or is inconclusive. This ensures that other researchers can learn f
32、rom a trial regardless of its resultsa move that could also safeguard primates against being used for the same thing twice. Nancy Haigwood, director of the Oregon National Primate Research Center, also says data sharing is “the way of the future.” Her center hosts 4,800 primates to study a variety o
33、f human diseases. She currently contributes results from her center to OConnors Web site. “I dont see a drawback,” she says. “We have to share data more quickly.”27. What does Congress think of the primate research?- 8 -A. It has done a great deal of good to advances in biomedicine.B. It is a huge w
34、aste of money to conduct research on primates.C. Primate-based research must be stopped for moral reasons.D. Proper attention should be given to treating primates humanely.28. The underlined phrase “walking the walk” in Paragraph 2 shows that OConnor _.A. is the leader in fighting Zika virus in prim
35、ates B. is walking away from his own responsibility C. is carrying out what he has said he should do D. is taking a tough road when posting his data29. According to OConnor, what might prevent scientists from sharing their data?A. The deep-rooted culture that data should be kept secret until publish
36、ed.B. The fact that scientists are reluctant to change their way of research.C. The requirement that most clinical trials should be registered online.D. The fear that they will be laughed at if a study fails or is inconclusive.30. What could be the best title for the passage?A. The Merciless Practic
37、e of Primate Research B. To Treat Primates More Humanely: TransparencyC. To Abandon Experiments on Primates: Final GoalD. The Burden of Research on Nonhuman PrimatesDYouve probably heard such reports. The number of college students majoring in the humanities (人文学科) is decreasing quickly. The news ha
38、s caused a flood of high-minded essays criticizing the development as a symbol of American decline.The bright side is this: The destruction of the humanities by the humanities is, finally, coming to an end. No more will literature, as part of an academic curriculum, put out the light of literature.
39、No longer will the reading of, say, “King Lear” or D.H. Lawrences “Women in Love” result in the annoying stuff - 9 -of multiple-choice quizzes, exam essays and homework assignments.The discouraging fact is that for every college professor who made Shakespeare or Lawrence come alive for the lucky few
40、, there were countless others who made the reading of literary masterpieces seem like two hours in the dentists chair. The remarkably insignificant fact that, a half-century ago, 14% of the undergraduate population majored in the humanities (mostly in literature, but also in art, philosophy, history
41、, classics and religion) as opposed to 7% today has given rise to serious reflections on the nature and purpose of an education in the liberal arts. Such reflections always come to the same conclusion: We are told that the lack of a formal education, mostly in literature, leads to numerous harmful p
42、ersonal conditions, such as the inability to think critically, to write clearly, to be curious about other people and places, to engage with great literature after graduation, to recognize truth, beauty and goodness.These serious anxieties are grand, admirably virtuous and virtuously admirable. They
43、 are also a mere fantasy. The college teaching of literature is a relatively recent phenomenon. Literature did not even become part of the university curriculum until the end of the 19th century. Before that, what came to be called the humanities consisted of learning Greek and Latin, while the Bibl
44、e was studied in church as the necessary other half of a full education. No one ever thought of teaching novels, stories, poems or plays in a formal course of study. They were part of the leisure of everyday life.It was only after World War II that the study of literature as a type of wisdom, releva
45、nt to actual, contemporary life, put down widespread institutional roots. Soldiers returning home in 1945 longed to make sense of their lives after what they had witnessed and survived. The abundant economy afforded them the opportunity and the time to do so. Majoring in English hit its peak, yet it
46、 was this very popularity of literature in the university that spelled its doom, as - 10 -the academicization of literary art was accelerated.Literature changed my life long before I began to study it in college. Books took me far from myself into experiences that had nothing to do with my life, yet
47、 spoke to my life. But once in the college classroom, this precious, alternate life inside me got thrown back into that dimension of my existence that bored me. Homer, Chekhov and Yeats were reduced to right and wrong answers, clear-cut themes and clever interpretations. If there is anything to worr
48、y about, it should be the disappearance of what used to be an important part of every high-school education: the literature survey course, where books were not academically taught but thoroughly introducedan experience unaffected by stupid commentary and useless testing.The literary classics are pla
49、ces of quiet, useless stillness in a world that despises (鄙视) any activity that is not profitable or productive. Literature is too sacred(神圣的) to be taught. It needs only to be read.Soon, if all goes well and literature at last disappears from the undergraduate curriculummy fingers are crossedincreasing numbers of people will be able to say that reading the literary masterworks of the past outside the college classroom, simply in the course of living, was, in fact, their college classroom.31. The author mentions “two hours
