8 . The 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman for their work on mRNA vaccines (疫苗), a crucial tool in holding back the spread of COVID-19.
Karikó,68, is from Hungary. In the 1970s, she began studying a new area of research: messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is a special molecule (分子) which carries instructions that tell cells what proteins to make. Proteins are one of the building blocks of life. They’re involved in almost every process in living things, from fighting diseases to building muscles to helping our bodies work. Karikó was excited about the idea that mRNA could be used to help the body fight many different diseases.
In 1985, Karikó moved to America to continue her research. In 1989, she joined the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) in Philadelphia as a scientist. But as time went on, the initial excitement surrounding mRNA research started to disappear, and other scientists thought it was too financially risky to fund. Karikó had trouble getting money for her research. She even got a pay cut from the school. What’s worse, at this time, she suffered from cancer. But she stuck at it.
Karikó got to know another UPenn scientist, Drew Weissman in the late 1990s while photocopying research papers. He was hoping to find a way to create a vaccine for a disease known as HIV. The two began talking and soon decided to work together.
One of the biggest problems in using mRNA as a medicine was that the human body saw mRNA as an enemy and fought it off. Together, they came up with an approach to treating mRNA.In 2005, they published their key discovery: mRNA could be changed and delivered effectively into the body to activate (激活) the body’s protective immune system. Thanks to their work, companies were able to develop mRNA vaccines far more quickly than ever before, which have saved millions of lives around the world.
1. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding mRNA?A.Its reflections on health. | B.Its main components. |
C.Its threats to proteins. | D.Its research values. |
A.He met Karikó by accident. | B.He applied mRNA to HIV. |
C.He invited Karikó to UPenn. | D.He helped discover mRNA. |
A.Their idea on how to recognize COVID-19 fast. |
B.Their method of testing the mRNA vaccines’ effect. |
C.Their way to make the human body accept mRNA. |
D.Their experiment of activating the immune system. |
A.We should pursue excellence in our careers. |
B.Creativity results from challenging authority. |
C.Scientists’ work follows technological trends. |
D.Success comes from a lasting desire to explore. |

10 . As the summer heat builds,we couldn’t help but wonder. Is there anybody in the world who doesn’t love ice cream? Ice cream may be universally appealing, but many countries have their own version.
Frozen custard, United StatesDifferent from frozen yogurt, which is made with cultured yogurt and sugar, frozen custard is a combination of milk, cream, sugar and eggs. When it comes to its flavors, Americans typically have a choice between vanilla or chocolate. Dairy Queen, the Midwest fast food restaurant chain, and Culver’s and Carvel are all popular go-to spots in the US.
Raspado, MexicoWhile snow cones(雪糕筒)are made using massively sweet syrup(糖浆), raspados have real fruits or fresh fruit juices.The sweet and cold treat is common throughout Mexico and sold at street carts.You won’t find Mexicans eating their raspados in cones.They’re only served in cups.
Gelato, ItalyItalian gelato is lower in fat than traditional ice cream and mixed with whole milk, eggs, sugar and flavoring. In Italy,gelato is served using a spatula(小铲)that presses the cool treat into a cup or cone. Finardi’s go-to in Milanis probably the best shop in Italy which specializes in chocolate flavors.
Dondurma, TurkeyDondurma is made with milk and sugar.The sellers usually offer flavors such as vanilla and melon. Buying dondurma is like watching a performance.The men who sell it wear traditional Turkish costume and hat, twist and turn the ice cream until it lands into a cone. Kids and adults get a kick out of the show. If you want to taste it, you can buy their dondurma from a street cart or at a fair.
