Researchers who examined DNA from famous German musician Ludwig van Beethoven have found something new about his health.
They found that he had a risk for liver (肝脏) disease. The DNA also showed that Beethoven caught the virus hepatitis B (乙肝病毒) in the last months of his life. The virus hurts the liver. The findings suggest Beethoven’s liver problems were enough to cause the liver failure widely believed to have killed him. The musician was also believed to have been a heavy drinker, which can influence the liver.
The musician himself wrote that he wanted doctors to study his health problems after he died. Axel Schmidt is a researcher who helped lead the research. He said that Beethoven’s sicknesses had “sometimes prevented his creative work”. Schmidt added that for many doctors, “it has always been a mystery” what exactly killed him.
Since his death, scientists have long tried to piece together Beethoven’s medical history. And they have offered many explanations for his many health conditions. But new examination technology and methods now make it possible to revisit (再次讨论) health and death information by studying ancient DNA.The DNA were collected from hair cut from Beethoven’s head.
Getting enough genetic (遗传的) material was difficult because DNA in hair gets cut up into very small pieces. But finally, after using up almost 3 meters of Beethoven’s hair, the team finished it.
The question of what caused Beethoven’s hearing loss remains unanswered, said Ohio State University’s Dr Cooper. He said that the mystery might continue forever because DNA can not show us everything about our health. However, Cooper added that the mystery is part of what makes Beethoven so interesting and popular. “The fact that we can’t know is OK,” he said.
21.What did researchers find by examining Beethoven’s DNA?
A.Why he kept fit in the last months. B.How he caught the virus hepatitis B.
C.What might have caused his death. D.What he drank most while young.
22.It is still a mystery to people ________ according to the passage.
A.why Beethoven couldn’t hear
B.what stopped Beethoven from creating music
C.how many explanations there were for Beethoven’s death
D.what made it possible to revisit Beethoven’s death information
23.What difficulty did scientists have in examining Beethoven’s DNA?
A.The technology was out of date.
B.It was hard to collect enough DNA.
C.There wasn’t enough time to do research.
D.It took a lot of time to find Beethoven’s hair.
24.What did Beethoven ask doctors to do?
A.Examine his DNA later. B.Develop his creativity.
C.Keep his mystery forever. D.Make a study of his health.
25.What does Cooper think of Beethoven’s mystery?
A.It may live a long time. B.It will be cleared up soon.
C.It is a headache for scientists. D.It encourages people to study DNA.

请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。
When we talk about science fiction (科幻小说), many people will mention Isaac Asimov.
26 When Asimov was three years old, he moved to New York City with his family. Though it was more difficult than they had expected, his father managed to buy a candy store. It turned out to be a big influence on Asimov’s future.
As Asimov worked long hours in the store, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in. 27 His father, however, thought that sci-fi magazines were useless. He told his son not to waste time reading about things that “do not exist and never will”.
28 Asimov continued to read those magazines secretly. While they opened the door to a whole new world for the boy, his father gave him a library card. The boy became a regular visitor to the library nearby. As Asimov himself once wrote, “ 29 And I made the most of it. For a poor boy whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was like a door to wonder.”
Asimov sold his first sci-fi story when he was still in high school. As his writing kept improving, Asimov’s stories became more and more popular. By the time he was thirty-six, 30 He created the word “robotics” and invented the famous “Three Laws of Robotics”. It’s hard to believe that these great achievements all started from a love of “useless” magazines in a candy store.
A.Asimov was born in 1920 in Russia.
B.Asimov became interested in them very soon.
C.This didn’t kill Asimov’s love of science fiction.
D.His father bought a lot of sci-fi magazines for Asimov.
E.Asimov was considered to be a master of science fiction.
F.I can never be thankful enough that I chose to walk into the library.

C
Researchers who examined DNA from famous German musician Ludwig van Beethoven have found something new about his health.
They found that he had a risk for liver (肝脏) disease. The DNA also showed that Beethoven caught the virus hepatitis B (乙肝病毒) in the last months of his life. The virus hurts the liver. The findings suggest Beethoven’s liver problems were enough to cause the liver failure widely believed to have killed him. The musician was also believed to have been a heavy drinker, which can influence the liver.
The musician himself wrote that he wanted doctors to study his health problems after he died. Axel Schmidt is a researcher who helped lead the research. He said that Beethoven’s sicknesses had “sometimes prevented his creative work”. Schmidt added that for many doctors, “it has always been a mystery” what exactly killed him.
Since his death, scientists have long tried to piece together Beethoven’s medical history. And they have offered many explanations for his many health conditions. But new examination technology and methods now make it possible to revisit (再次讨论) health and death information by studying ancient DNA.The DNA were collected from hair cut from Beethoven’s head.
Getting enough genetic (遗传的) material was difficult because DNA in hair gets cut up into very small pieces. But finally, after using up almost 3 meters of Beethoven’s hair, the team finished it.
The question of what caused Beethoven’s hearing loss remains unanswered, said Ohio State University’s Dr Cooper. He said that the mystery might continue forever because DNA can not show us everything about our health. However, Cooper added that the mystery is part of what makes Beethoven so interesting and popular. “The fact that we can’t know is OK,” he said.
21.What did researchers find by examining Beethoven’s DNA?
A.Why he kept fit in the last months. B.How he caught the virus hepatitis B.
C.What might have caused his death. D.What he drank most while young.
22.It is still a mystery to people ________ according to the passage.
A.why Beethoven couldn’t hear
B.what stopped Beethoven from creating music
C.how many explanations there were for Beethoven’s death
D.what made it possible to revisit Beethoven’s death information
23.What difficulty did scientists have in examining Beethoven’s DNA?
A.The technology was out of date.
B.It was hard to collect enough DNA.
C.There wasn’t enough time to do research.
D.It took a lot of time to find Beethoven’s hair.
24.What did Beethoven ask doctors to do?
A.Examine his DNA later. B.Develop his creativity.
C.Keep his mystery forever. D.Make a study of his health.
25.What does Cooper think of Beethoven’s mystery?
A.It may live a long time. B.It will be cleared up soon.
C.It is a headache for scientists. D.It encourages people to study DNA.

请阅读全文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。
When we talk about science fiction (科幻小说), many people will mention Isaac Asimov.
26 When Asimov was three years old, he moved to New York City with his family. Though it was more difficult than they had expected, his father managed to buy a candy store. It turned out to be a big influence on Asimov’s future.
As Asimov worked long hours in the store, he noticed that the sci-fi magazines kept drawing customers in. 27 His father, however, thought that sci-fi magazines were useless. He told his son not to waste time reading about things that “do not exist and never will”.
28 Asimov continued to read those magazines secretly. While they opened the door to a whole new world for the boy, his father gave him a library card. The boy became a regular visitor to the library nearby. As Asimov himself once wrote, “ 29 And I made the most of it. For a poor boy whose family could not afford to buy books, the library was like a door to wonder.”
Asimov sold his first sci-fi story when he was still in high school. As his writing kept improving, Asimov’s stories became more and more popular. By the time he was thirty-six, 30 He created the word “robotics” and invented the famous “Three Laws of Robotics”. It’s hard to believe that these great achievements all started from a love of “useless” magazines in a candy store.
A.Asimov was born in 1920 in Russia.
B.Asimov became interested in them very soon.
C.This didn’t kill Asimov’s love of science fiction.
D.His father bought a lot of sci-fi magazines for Asimov.
