Ants have the ability to smell out cancerous cells (in humans,which has been
discovered by a new study,suggesting that they could be used to find cancer in the future.
Researchers from the French National Center for Scientific Research(CNRS)discovered that some
ants have a well developed sense of smell."However more tests must be carried out before they could be used in
hospitals."the team said.
The scientists did tests with 36 ants,smelling cells in the lab.First,they let the ants smell some cancerous
human cells.Every'time the ants smelt cancerous cells,they were given with sugar.In the second step,the ants
were put into two different smells.One was a new smell of healthy cells and the second was still the smell of the
cancerous cells.Once the ants found the cancerous cells successfully,the researchers made them smell different
cancerous cells.As such,the scientists found that ants could discriminate between cancerous and healthy cells
and between two cancerous cells
This isn't the first time that scientists have used the animals'sense of smell to find cancerous cells."Dogs are
good at finding something with their noses.However,training dogs to do so requires several months to a year.On
the other hand,insects can be easily raised,they are inexpensive,and hundreds of them can be trained with fewer
times,"the researchers pointed out.
"This study shows that ants are able to learn very quickly.The method can be used for other tasks including
finding danger or other diseases."the researchers added.
56.What can we know from CNRS's study?
A.Ants work well in treating cancer.
B.Ants help humans keep off cancer.
C.Ants can be used to find cancer.
D.Ants are used to find people with cancer.
57.Which paragraph tells how the scientists did the tests?
A.Paragraph 1.B.Paragraph 2.
C.Paragraph 3.
D.Paragraph 4.

58.What does the underlined word"discriminate"in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Tell the stories.
B.Tell the influence.
C.Tell the truth.
D.Tell the differences.
59.What are the advantages of insects compared with dogs in experiments?
①They are cheaper..
They are easier to be raised.
They are better at finding things.
They can be trained more quickly.
5 They have a sharper sense of smell.

unpleasant happened when we both tried for the roles in The Legend of the White
Snake(白蛇传).
Mary really hoped to be Bai Suzhen.I was sure she could get the role.However,it
tumed out that I was picked to be Bai Suzhen and Mary only got the part of Xiao Qing.
"Do you want to practice together with me?"I asked."Sorry,I'm busy this week,"said
Mary,without looking at me."And I will always be busy."
That night at dinner,my parents noticed I was not excited about getting the lead role.They wondered what
happened."Well,Mary was not picked to be Bai Suzhen,but I was.She was unhappy.Maybe she will throw away
our friendship.”
My father said,"Don't worry about it.I think this is a chance for you to be an extra-good friend."
“Dad is right,,”said my mother.“Sometimes when our friends do wel,we may have feelings of envy(嫉妒)
and don't know how to act.Try to give her a little time,space and understanding.I think she will change her mind
soon.”
Over the next week,I tried my best to give Mary some space.Then one day,on the way to our practice,I met
her."I just want to say,you're such a great actress when acting as Xiao Qing."I smiled.She seemed happy and
explained how she understood the role.When I asked her to help me with my role,she agreed and smiled,too.She
even said sorry to me for acting that way at first.Later,we became closer to each other.
