听力原文： Delegates to a meeting of 24 Asia-Pacific countries in Bangkok
cited progress in the fight against HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. The UN
program on HIV/AIDS, UNAIDS, says epidemics in the region appear stable. From
2001 to 2009 infection rates in India, Nepal and Thailand fell by more than 25 percent,
while rates in Bangladesh and the Philippines increased by more than 25 percent.
One challenge is the lack of access to often expensive anti-retroviral treatments.
The regional director for the UN Children’s Fund in East Asia and the Pacific,
Anupama Rao Singh, says only 30 percent of adults and 44 percent of children who
need the treatments are able to get them. Singh says Asian heads of state need to
better support HIV/AIDS programs. The Asia-Pacific region is home to an
estimated five million HIV-infected people, the second highest number in the world,
after Sub-Saharan Africa.

听力原文： In a six-year study of just over 136,000 nurses and health
professionals, researchers at Harvard University School of Public Health in
Massachusetts found that people who take ibuprofen regularly for headache or other
pain reduced their risk of developing Parkinson’s disease by nearly 40 percent.
Taking one or two pills of ibuprofen two or more times per week was considered
regular use. Other non-prescription pain relievers, including aspirin and
acetaminophen, did not show a similar protective benefit. Researcher Alberto
Ascheiro says ibuprofen appears to affect a neural pathway that has been implicated in
the development of Parkinson’s. At this point, Ascheiro says, experts do NOT
recommend that people start taking ibuprofen to prevent Parkinson’s, which typically
strikes people 65 years of age and older. On the downside, ibuprofen can cause
stomach, kidney, liver and urological problems if not used carefully. Ascheiro says
researchers will now be studying whether the medication benefits those who have
been diagnosed with the disease.
3． What is the main idea of the news item?
A．A medical breakthrough in Harvard University School of Public Health.
B．Ibuprofen dramatically reduces risk of Parkinson’s disease.
C．The medication benefits of taking ibuprofen regularly.
D．The causes of Parkinson’s disease among old people.
正确答案：B 涉及知识点：健康类
4． According to Alberto Ascheiro, why is ibuprofen likely to prevent
Parkinson’s?
A．It appears to affect a neural pathway.
B．It relieves the pain caused by the disease.
C．It disconnects a possible link between neurons.
D．It corrects the brain disorder among old people.

听力原文： The battle against malaria continues to challenge doctors,
scientists, and public health officials. Now, a team of British and American scientists
have developed a novel and promising approach to malaria control. Malaria kills
about a million victims each year, mostly children in Africa, and almost half the
world’s population is at risk. The malaria parasite is carried from victim to victim
by mosquitoes, which are increasingly developing resistance to the insecticides used
to kill them. As an alternative to chemicals, University of Maryland professor
Raymond St. Leger and his colleagues have been working on a genetically-engineered
fungus to control malaria-carrying mosquitoes. One possibility they considered
was using the fungus to kill the mosquito, the way insecticides do. The result is a
fungus that kills the parasite directly. And, the genetic modification of the fungus
could be adjusted to counter resistance in the malaria parasite as it evolves. It may
be a couple of years before this modified fungus is approved for use. But it wouldn’ t
be the first fungus based product on the market. A similar modified fungus is already
in use against locusts in Africa, Australia and China, and at a cost comparable to
