Scientists at Harvard University have recycled a kidney(‘肾)-in a rat. The researchers removed a kidney from a dead rat. Later, the renewed kidney was put into a living rat. It wasn't perfect. It did, however, show signs of working like a kidney should.
"It's really beautiful work," Edward Ross, a kidney researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville, told Science News. He didn't work on the new study.
Kidneys are bean-shaped and act like guards in the body. They clean the blood by removing waste and extra water. Every day, an adult's kidneys filter(过滤) enough blood to fill a bathtub half full. Along the way, they produce eight cups of urine(尿) from that waste and water. When a person's kidneys fail, all of that waste stays in the body. Such patients can quickly become very sick and die, unless they are regularly connected to a machine that filters their blood.
At any given time, about 100,000 people in the United States are waiting for a replacement kidney. But healthy donated kidneys are difficult to get. Either a living person must donate one, or a kidney must be removed from someone who just died and earlier had agreed to the donation. In either case, people receiving new kidneys face the risk that their bodies will reject the donated ones.
But there may be another option. Researchers use knowledge of living things to grow or improve tissue that can aid human health. Harald Ott's team at Harvard started with a "used" kidney.
Scientists added kidney cells from rats and blood vessel cells from people to the matrix（母体）. These cells attached themselves and began to multiply. Before long, they formed new kidney tissue.
The scientists placed this renewed kidney into another rat. There it produced a small amount of urine. This experiment shows that the lab-grown kidney can do at least some of the work performed by a healthy kidney.
The results are a promising first step toward helping people with serious kidney problems. "This is still very early, but they've come a long way," Ross said.
1.What can we infer from Paragraph l?
A. Biology is a new and helpful science.
B. It's hard to put the rebuilt kidney into the rat.
C. Kidneys are very important to our life.
D. A used kidney may be recycled for new life.
2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The relationship between kidneys and health.
B. The difficulty of curing serious kidney diseases.
C. The function and importance of kidneys.
D. The methods of curing kidneys diseases.
3.For what purpose does the author use the figure 100,000 in Paragraph 4?
A. To stress used kidneys are hard to get.
B. To show the great need for healthy kidneys.
C. To explain many American people get kidney diseases.
D. To call on people to donate kidneys.
4.Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. The scientists are satisfied with the result of the experiment.
B. Ross is a kidney expert who is involved in the experiment.
C. The function of the renewed kidney is the same as a healthy kidney.

When it comes to making sure our food is safe, we are often advised to wash vegetables and fruits before eating. This has been a good method recommended by food safety experts. However, is this way of cleaning also useful for raw meat? No! The US Departement of Agriculture hs been warning people against washing raw meat before cooking , as it can do more harm than good to our health. Then, why do people want to wash raw meat? Here are some answers.
Some people complain that the unpleasant smell coming from the chicken forces them to wash it.Well, this might never happen if you have bought it from a reliable source. Also, many people say that it helps to get rid of the sliminess(粘连) of the store-bought chicken. And others just want to remove the bacteria from it. But the idea that washing meat helps to clean the chicken is only partly true. This is because some of the bacteria remain firm on the surface, though the meat has been washed several times.
In fact, the surface of the chicken is often polluted with a lot of bacteria. So, when you wash the meat under the tap, it can lead to the bacteria being removed from the meat’s surface, and spreading all over the kitchen. These small infected(受到污染的)water drops can move as far as half a meter. So if you have kept any ready-to-serve dishes on your kitchen top, they are likely to get polluted, and may cause food poisoning if they are eaten.
Of course, if you are really serious about food safety, make sure that the chicken is cooked in a proper way. Eating undercooked meat is another common cause of food poisoning. Bacteria can be killed by the heat of above 70℃. This is the best way to get the bacteria present on raw meat destroyed.
In conclusion, food safety is important but that doesn’t mean that you have to wash raw meat with running water, which carries a lot of health risks.
Should raw meat be washed before cooking? | |
Topic | The Us Department of Agriculture has given a(n) 1._________ that it’s unnecessary to wash raw meat before cooking. |
2.____for people’s washing raw meat | Some people wash raw meat to get rid of its bad 3._____. Some people wash raw meat to get rid of its sliminess. Some people wash raw meat to get rid of its bacteria, but it’s 4._____ to wash all of them away. |
5.____ of washing raw meat before cooking | The bacteria, when6. ______ from the meat surface, can spread around the kitchen and then infect water. The infected water may 7._____ your ready-to-serve dishes, and cause food poisoning if they are eaten. |
The way to cook 8._____ | Heat raw meat to above 70℃ to 9.______ the bacteria. |
Conclusion | Washing raw meat before cooking cannot ensure food safety but put people’s health at10._______. |

What would it be like to walk on Mars? If you could build the highest building in the world，what would it look like? Do you dream of being the next J. K. Rowling? This summer, you can experience all of these things, and more. All you need is an Internet connection and your imagination.
A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that kids spend an average of 1 hour and 29 minutes online each day. Many kids like to use that time to chat with friends, play games or check e?mails. But the next time you get on the Web, try exploring the world instead. “With the Internet，you can go back 11,000 years in time，or go 11,000 kilometers across the planet.” said Russell, Web search expert of Google. “The whole scope of history and the world is open to you.”
There is a wealth of information to be found online. For example, if your family is going on vacation somewhere, do a quick online search on the area before you even get in the car. “What's the background of the place; what's the history？” says Russell. “I like to tell my kids, ‘Whenever you have a question, whenever you have a doubt, search it out.’”
Ready to launch a virtual journey of your own? Here are a few starting points to get you thinking and to help you on your way. You can invite your parents along for the ride, too. Always ask for permission before downloading programs and software onto your computer. And check with a parent or an adult before visiting any new Web site.
Navigate the world in 3?D with Google Earth. Begin in outer space and zoom (快速移动) into the streets of any city, from Hong Kong to San Francisco. Or visit ancient monuments, watch the changing rainforests over time, and dive underwater to explore tropical reef.
With the Moon in Google Earth tool, you can walk in Neil Armstrong's famous footsteps. Take a guided tour of the moon's surface with Armstrong's fellow shuttle mate astronaut Buzz Aldrin.
When you're exploring that part of the solar system, hop on over to the Red Planet with Google Mars. There, you can move very quickly around the surface and see images from the Mars Rovers.
