請認真閱讀下列短文,從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
ELEPHANTS have impressed us fr centuries. They are big, clever, and kind. But what if smene tld yu that they may als hld the key t fighting cancer (癌癥)??
Peple have been wndering why elephants d nt develp cancer, even thugh they have lifespans (壽命) that are similar t humans, living fr arund 50 t 70 years.
Nw scientists believe they knw why. A team at the University f Chicag, US has fund that elephants carry a large number f genes that stp tumrs (腫瘤) frm develping. T be precise(exact), they fund 20 cpies f an anti-tumr gene called TP53 in elephants. Mst ther species, including humans, nly carry ne cpy.
Accrding t the research, which was recently published n the nline science netwrk BiRxiv, the extra cpies f the gene imprved the animal’s sensitivity t DNA damage. This lets the cells quickly kill themselves when damaged befre they can g n t frm deadly tumrs.
“An increased risk f develping cancer has std in the way f the evlutin f large bdy sizes in many animals,” study authr Dr. Vincent Lynch tld The Guardian. If every living cell (細胞) has the same chance f becming cancerus, large creatures with lng lifespans like whales and elephants shuld have a greater risk f develping cancer than humans and mice d. But acrss species, the risk f cancer des nt shw a cnnectin with bdy mass.
This phenmenn(現(xiàn)象) was fund by Oxfrd University scientist Richard Pet in the 1970s and later named “Pet’s paradx”. Evlutinary (進化的) bilgists believe it results frm larger animals using prtectin that many smaller animals d nt. In the elephant’s case, the making f TP53 is nature’s way f keeping this species alive.
The study als fund that when the same genes were brught t life in mice, they had the same cancer resistance (抵抗) as elephants. This means researchers culd use the discvery t develp new treatments that can help stp cancers frm spreading r even develping in the first place.
“Nature has already figured ut hw t prevent cancer,” said Jshua Schiffman, an nclgist at the Schl f Medicine, University f Utah, US.
“It’s up t us t learn hw different animals tackle the prblem s we can use thse strategies t prevent cancer in peple.”
31. Why are elephants unlikely t develp cancer?
A. They have a large bdy size. B. Their genes suffer n DNA damage.
C. Certain genes in their bdy kill existing tumrs.
D. They carry many genes that keep tumrs frm develping.
32. Accrding t Dr Vincent Lynch, what has been a risk in the evlutin f large animals?
A. A risk f deadly tumrs. B. Human behavir.
C. Extreme weather.D. Cells killing themselves.
33. We can cnclude frm the last three paragraphs that ______.
A. humans are expected t stp cancer in the near future
B. depending n nature is nt enugh t fight against cancer
C. this new treatment is mre effective than the present nes
D. The TP53 genes have prven useful in stpping cancer in mice

Snny pened his eyes wide, “D yu mean next time when I’m entering fr the 60-metre race I shuld wish that Billy, Tny and Sandy wuld all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shcked, “But the trtise didn’t wish that the hare wuld fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Snny said, “Otherwise hw culd he be s flish as t race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He wn the race by perseverance (堅忍不拔), by pushing n steadily.”
Snny thught a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He wn it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened t fall asleep, the trtise wuld never have wn the race. He culd be as steady as yu like, r a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have wn the race. That’s fr sure.”
I gave up. Tday’s children are nt like what we used t be. They’re just hpeless.
