Experts hope an experimental drug can be as effective against the novel coronavirus in people as it has been on cells in a controlled lab environment.
The US drug,remdesivir(瑞德西韦),began clinical trials on patients in Wuhan, Hubei province, on Wednesday. Other medications, including chloroquine, arbidol and darunavir have also recently been found capable of arresting viral growth in lab cells, but like remdesivir they require more clinical trials to confirm their safety and potency on humans.
The Phase III trials for remdesivir have been approved by China’s National Medical Products Administration and will be conducted by the China-Japan Friendship Hospital in Beijing and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences on patients at the Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital.
A total of 761 patients will participate in two trials—one trial to assess the drug’s potency on 308 cases with mild or moderate infection, and the other on 453 severely infected patients, Cao Bin, head of the clinical trial and vice-president of the friendship hospital, said on Wednesday.
Cao said studies have shown remdesivir is effective in inhibiting the growth of the novel coronavirus in vitro (在生物体外), meaning the procedure was done on cells in a controlled environment outside of a living organism, typically in a petri dish or test tube.
But the drug has yet to show convincing clinical evidence that it can translate its positive in vitro results into actual human patients. Hence, it will require rigorous clinical testing, Cao said.
A 35-year-old patient from the United States infected with the virus was reported seeing noticeable improvement with no obvious side effects after taking the drug, according to the New England Journal of Medicine。
Gilead Sciences, the maker of remdesivir, said in a recent statement that it has been working with government agencies on the novel coronavirus response efforts.
However, the company stressed that remdesivir is an experimental medicine that has only been used in a handful of patients on compassionate grounds, “so we do not have an appropriately robust understanding of the effect of this drug to warrant broad use at this time.”
21. Why does the US drug, remdesivir, began clinical trials
A. To replace the traditional medicine.
B. To confirm their safety and potency on humans.
C. To show whether remdesivir is effective in inhibiting the growth of the novel coronavirus in vitro.
D. To see how it takes effect.
22. Which statement is true according to the passage
A. After taking the drug, a 35-year-old patient was infected with the virus.
B. Doctors had seen apparent success treating a 35-year-old patient infected with the virus.
C. Remdesivir can cure those who are infected with the novel coronavirus.
D. Chinese Hospital does The Phase III trials independently.
23. What’s the author's attitude towards the clinical trial of remdesivir
A. Negative. B. Critical. C. Positive. D. Gloomy.

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither feels hurt by this. Both may exchange greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸)sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality(好客)easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes,we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine(日常生活). They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For Americans, it is often considered friendlier to invite a friend to their homes than go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
28. Who might be the writer of this passage
A. An American. B.A Chinese.
C.A professor. D.A student.
29. According to the last two paragraphs, what will probably happen to us when we arrive in America to visit an American friend
A. We’ll be warmly welcomed at the airport.
B. We’ll be offered a ride to his home.
C. We’ll be treated hospitably at his home.
D. We’ll be treated to dinner in a restaurant.
30. What may be a suitable title for this passage
A. Friendships between Chinese
B. Friendships between Americans
C. Americans’ hospitality
D. American and Chinese views of friendships

As we all know, friendship is of great importance in our daily life. A friend can give us help and share our difficulties and happiness. But how to make friends is still difficult to some of us. 31
Be friendly to others. 62 You should try to make a stranger feel at home wherever he happens to be. Think more of others than of yourself and never judge a person by his appearance and clothes.
Be reliable. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don’t be late. If you’re not going to make it on time, call them as soon as you realize it. 33 Be someone that people know they can depend on.
34 Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take the time to learn more about them.
Encourage and support your friends. A true friend always gives encouragement to his friends. 35 Never make fun of or laugh at your friends in front of others. Never leave your friends when they are in trouble. You should come to support them.
A. Be a good listener.
B. A friend to all is a friend to none.
C. When you say you’ll do something, do it.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
When I was ten, I was suddenly faced with the suffering of moving from the only home I had ever known. My whole life, brief as it was, had been spent in that big old house, gracefully touched with the laughter and tears of four generations.
When the final day came, I ran to the small backyard and sat alone, with tears welling up from my heart. Suddenly I felt a hand rest on my shoulder. I looked up to see my grandfather. “It isn’t easy, is it, Billy ” he said softly, sitting down on the steps beside me.
“Grandpa, ” I replied through my tears, “how can I ever say goodbye to you and all my friends ”
For a moment he just stared off into the apple trees. “Goodbye is such a sad word, ” he said. “It seems too final, too cold, for friends to use. We seem to have so many ways of saying goodbye and they all have one thing in common: sadness. When you and your friends must part, I want you to reach deep within you and bring back that first e with me, my friend, ” he whispered.
We walked, hand in hand, to his favorite place in the front yard, where a huge red rosebush sat noticeably alone.” Kneeling, he pulled me close. “It isn’t just the roses that are beautiful, Billy. It’s that special place in your heart that makes them so.”
His eyes met mine again. “Billy, I planted these roses a long time ago—before your mother came to the world. I put them into the soil the day my first son was born. It was my way of saying “thank you” to God. That boy’s name was Billy, just like yours. I used to watch him pick roses for his mother.” I saw my grandfather’s tears. I had never seen him cry before. His voice became hoarse (沙哑).

参考范文
Paragraph 1:
“One day a terrible war came, my son said goodbye to me and went for the war. Ten months later a telegram came. My son had died in some tiny village in Italy. All I could think of was that the last thing I said to him in life was goodbye.” Grandpa slowly stood up. “Don’t ever say goodbye, Billy. Don’t ever give in to the sadness and the loneliness of that word. I want you remember to take that special hello and lock it away within you.”
Paragraph 2:
A year and a half later, my grandfather became seriously ill. When he returned after several weeks in the hospital, he wanted his bed next to the window, where he could see his beloved rosebush. I noted how tired he looked. I took his hand as gently as he had once taken mine. “Hello, Grandpa,” I whispered. His eyes slowly opened,“Hello, my friend, ” with a brief smile and he closed them again and forever. Suddenly, I knew what he had meant about never saying goodbye—about refusing to give in to sadness.
