LONDON (Reuters)—New faces given to a Chinese man after a bear tore off part of his face and a French­Caribbean man disfigured by a rare tumor show that such transplants can work and are not medical oddities (怪异),researchers said.
The findings give hope to some people with severe facial disfigurement and suggest the transplants could prove long­lasting without major problems.Despite the tissue rejection in the first year after their transplants,neither men had psychological problems accepting their new faces and have been able to rejoin society,they reported.
Only three people have received face transplants.The world’s first was carried out on French woman Isabelle Dinoire in November 2005 after she was disfigured in an attack by her dog.In 2007,her doctors reported that she had recovered slowly and steadily,overcoming two periods of rejection.
In 2006,Chinese doctors performed a face transplant on a 30­year­old hit by a bear.While there were some complications with tissue rejection following the operation,two years later the man was doing well,his doctors said.“This case suggests that facial transplantation might be an option for restoring a severely disfigured face,and could enable patients to bring themselves back into society,” Shuzhong Guo and colleagues at Xijing Hospital in China wrote.
A French team described their work on a 29­year­old man who suffered from Von Recklinghausen disease,an illness that changes the shape of his face.“The man,who was not named,was given a new nose,mouth and chin in a 2007 operation.He began to work 13 months after the transplant has more function in his face and has not rejected the new tissue,” his doctors said.
“Our case confirms that face transplantation is practical and effective for the correction of specific disfigurement,” Dr.Laurent Lantieri and colleagues at the Henri­Mondor hospital outside Paris wrote.

In 1977, a dead author of detective stories saved the life of a 19-month-old baby in a most unusual way. The author was Agatha Christie, one of the most successful writers of detective stories in the world.

“You’re very observant and you may be right,” another doctor said. “We’ll _44_some tests and find out _45_ it’s thallium or not.”

Teenagers will be told to "stand up for their elders" on public transport — or risk losing their right to free travel.
London Mayor Boris Johnson will declare plans today to make youngsters sign a “courtesy pledge"  (文明宣言) to promise to behave in a respectful manner when travelling in the capital. The three-point pledge states that they will give up their seats to the elderly, pregnant and disabled; keep from using offensive or threatening language; and be courteous and polite to fellow passengers and staff.
Those who refuse, or are caught behaving in a loutish manner, will have their free travel passes removed. The plan — a key part of Mr. Johnson's re-election bid— will initially affect the 400,000 ll-to-15-year-olds in London who qualify for free travel cards, but Tory sources believe the idea could be used across the country.
A Conservative insider said: "The plan corresponds perfectly with the push to create a Big Society. It is about changing culture and expectations around behavior to improve the atmosphere on buses and trains for everyone."
Speaking before today's launch, Mr. Johnson said he was determined to deal with the anti-social behavior of a "minority of youngsters" on public transport. "When I was a boy, I was taught to stand up for those less able to, "he said. "Youngsters enjoy the privilege of free travel, which is paid for by Londoners, but they have to understand that with that privilege comes responsibility. Anyone who abuses this privilege will have it taken away, and will have to earn that right bach ."
Teenagers found guilty of a serious violation of the new behavior rules will lose their travel passes, and will have to carry out unpaid community work to earn them back.
Mr. Johnson is also introducing a "two strikes and you're out" policy to deal with repeat offenders, under which those committing a second serious violation of the rules will lose their travel rights permanently.
【小题1】Which of the following is NOT the content of the "courtesy pledge"?

A.Teenagers should give up their seats to the old.
B.Teenagers shouldn't talk with strangers in public.
C.Teenagers mustn't use aggressive language in public.
D.Teenagers must be polite to people on public transport.
【小题2】What does the underlined word "loutish" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A.rudeB.stupidC.politeD.calm
【小题3】According to Mr Johnson,____________.
A.youngsters should know duty comes with benefit
B.youngsters shouldn't use the privilege of free travel
C.anyone shouldn't make money with the privilege
D.youngsters should do some unpaid community work
【小题4】The worst punishment teenagers can face is____________.
A.to sign an agreementB.to work in the community
C.to be finedD.to lose their travel passes forever
【小题5】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.London Mayor Boris Johnson is a great person
B.The plan corresponds perfectly with the Big Society
C.Be polite and stand up for your elders or lose free travel
D.The "courtesy pledge” has been used across the country

Millions of people will be able to track each and every move by friends and family through their mobile phones,thanks to a new feature launched by Google yesterday.
The new system named “Latitude” uses a map to show exactly where a loved one is at any time, sometimes discovering their location to a few meters.Worried parents will be able to check up on where their children have got to after school, friends can meet for a quick drink if they see they are nearby and wives will be able to see if their husbands really are working late at the office.
The feature was made available immediately on millions of mobile phones that can access the web,such as the Black Berry.Within weeks Google hopes to launch a new one that will also work on computers as well.
“Once you've shared your location,you can hide it from all of your friends at once,or you can turn off Google Latitude completely at any time.” said a Google spokesman.“You can adjust your privacy settings in Latitude so that you share as much or as little about your location as you want,with whom you want.”
Google said that the company had tested the product with thousands of people to make sure that it was safe for the customers,but experts were not so sure.Simon Davies,director of Privacy International,said Latitude would open up a “privacy minefield(危险地带)”.
“It's about the little white lies.You might be avoiding going to work, and now your boss might be able to see that you're at Twickenham instead of at home.”said Ian Angell, an information expert at the London School of Economics.“You've already got mobile phone technology where husbands and wives track each other in secret.Now Google is so widely used that it will only worsen the situation.”
60. According to Google,the new system “Latitude” can ___________.
A.prove that the partner has told a lie about working late
B.tell the parents the locations of their children after school
C.provide the friends with the most suitable pub for a drink

62. From the passage,we know that Ian Angell believed ___________.
A.Latitude keeps husbands and wives in good relationship
B.Google tricked all its customers to make more money

There are still many things that Peter Cooke would like to try his hand at- paper – making and feather – work are on his list. For the moment though, he will stick to the skill he has been delighted to perfect over the past ten years ;making delicate and unusual objects out of shells.
As he leads me round his apartment showing me his work, he points to a pair of shell-covered ornaments(装饰品) above a fireplace. ‘I shan’t be at all bothered if people don’t buy them because I have got so used to them, and to me they’re adorable. I never meant to sell my work commercially. Some friends came to see me about five years ago and said, “You must have an exhibition-people ought to see these. We’ll talk to a man who owns an art gallery”.’ The result was an exhibition in London, at which 70 percent of the objects were sold. His second exhibition opened at the gallery yesterday. Considering the enormous prices the pieces command-around £2,000 for the ornaments-an empty space above the fireplace would seem a small sacrifice for Cooke to make.
“I do wish, though,” says Cooke, ‘that I’d taken this up a lot earlier, because then I would have been able to produce really wonderful things-at least the potential would have been there. Although the ideas are still there and I’m doing the best I can now, I’m more limited physically than I was when I started. Still, the work that he has managed to produce is a long way from the common shell constructions that can be found in seaside shops. ‘I have a miniature(微型的)mind’ he says, and this has resulted in boxes covered in thousands of tiny shells, little shaded pictures made from shells and baskets of astonishingly realistic flowers.
Cooke’s quest for beautiful, and especially tiny, shells has taken him further than his Norfolk shore: to France, Thailand, Mexico, South Africa and the Philippines, to name but a few of the beaches where he has lain on his stomach and looked for beauties to bring home.
67.What does the reader learn about Peter Cooke in the first paragraph?
A.He has produced hand-made objects in different materials.
B.He hopes to work with other materials in the future.
C.He has written about his love of making shell objects.
D.He was praised for his shell objects many years ago.
68.When looking round his apartment, the wrier__________.
A.is attracted by Cooke’s personality
B.realizes he doesn’t like Cooke’s work at all
C.feels uncertain about giving Cooke his opinion
D.senses that Cooke wants his products to be admired
69.The ‘small sacrifice’ in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A.the loss of Cooke’s ornaments
B.the display of Cooke’s ornaments
C.the cost of keeping Cooke’s ornaments
D.the space required to store Cooke’s ornaments
70.What does Cooke regret about his work?
A.He is not as famous as he should have been.
B.He makes less money than he should make.
C.He is less imaginative than he used to be.
D.He is not as skillful as he used to be.
