Researchers Jose Cordova and Erich Astudillo have discovered a new molecule(分子) that kills the bacteria Streptococcus Mutans, long known to be responsible for breaking down sugars in food in the mouth, which damages tooth leading to decay(腐爛). The new molecule they call “Keep 32” has been found to kill the bacteria.

The two have applied for a patent(專利) on their discovery and have also begun a marketing strategy aimed at both oral care products and food products. They say either product, if left in the mouth for just 60 seconds ,will kill all the harmful bacteria in the mouth and keep them at bay for several hours. If the new molecule passes health and safety tests, the two believe products using their new molecule should be on the market in as little as a year and a half. They expect the market for such a product to reach $300 million in just the first year.

The two have been working together since 2005 using money from the Founder Institute and say the aim is to approve the process for creating the molecule they’ve discovered for big companies like Procter & Gamble, Colgate even candy companies such as Hershey’s. In interviews, Astudillo has suggested that the two researchers are already heavily into discussion with several companies, some of which are interested in buying the patent once it is approved.

Over the years many products have come on the scene with announcement of reducing tooth decay and even the loss of teeth, but other than the introduction of fluoride(氟化物) into drinking water, not much progress has been made. If the announcement made by this new team proves true however, it could foresee a mark in saving the world of tooth decay as well as helping to improve the health for millions of people as tooth decay has been linked to many other health problems throughout the body including heart attacks.

1.The underlined word “them” in Para. 2 refers to _________.

A. oral care products B. food products

C. new molecules D. the harmful bacteria

2.The phrase “come on the scene” in Para. 4 is closest in meaning to __________.

A. performed B. occurred

C. existed D. arrived

3.What has been a way to reduce tooth decay and even the loss of teeth over the years?

A. Using the molecule “Keep 32”.

B. Killing the bacteria Mutans.

C. Introducing fluoride into drinking water.

D. Cooperating with some big companies.

4.This passage mainly tells us that ___________.

A. many health problems are closely connected to tooth decay

B. the discovery of a new molecule will greatly benefit health care

C. two researchers are discussing their patent with companies

D. researchers discover a molecule that can kill tooth decay-causing bacteria

ORTOTROT? I heard that word while studying in Australia. It is a local language for “Are you ready (to go)?”. And at Sydney Airport, I asked the way to the train station and a man told me“Go ask that “bloke” over there.” “Bloke” is used in Australia and refers to a person. “Day” and “die” sound almost alike and since “a”, “i” and “o” all sound almost the same, I have always told my Australian friends, jokingly, that they only need 24 letters, and not 26 like the rest of us do.

Australian English began to be different from British English in 1788 and has many words that some consider unique (獨特的) to the language, such as outback, meaning a remote, sparsely-populated (人口稀少的) area. Early settlers from England brought other similar words, phrases and usages to Australia. “Bonzer”, which was once a common Australian word meaning “great” or “beautiful”, is thought to have been an American term. The American influence on language in Australia has come from pop culture, the mass media (books, magazines and television programmes) and the Internet. Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English for their similar history.

Words of Irish origin are used, some of which are also common elsewhere in Irish, such as “tucker” for “food”. Some native English words whose meanings have changed under Irish influence, such as “paddock” for “field”, which has exactly the same meaning as the Australian “paddock”are still in use.

1.According to the passage, we know Australian English .

A. has special characters

B. is a kind of old language

C. is very difficult to learn

D. is the same as British English

2.Why did the writer tell his Australian friends they only need 24 letters?

A. Because Australians never use “a” or “i”.

B. Because Australians speak very easy English.

C. Because there are 3 letters having similar pronunciation.

D. Because there are some different ways to call the same thing.

3.Australian English is most similar to New Zealand English because .

A. they learn from each other

B. they have similar history

C. the two countries have the same political system

D. people from the two countries often travel to each other’s country

4.The American influence on Australian English comes from the following EXCEPT .

A. pop culture B. the Internet

C. computer software D. the mass media
