1) A.C.L. - Art Reference Bureau 'Deposition', by Peter Paul Rubens, Flemish baroque artist. EUROPE, LONDON - When Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610) arrived in Rome in 1592 to join the studio of celebrated artist Cavaliere d'Arpino, the young apprentice was relegated to painting fruit and vegetables. But the vivid realism of Caravaggio's early works laid the foundations for a new genre - still life - and artistic style: Baroque. The Royal Academy's exhibition of Baroque painting, titled 'The Genius of Rome, 1592-1623' features 145 works produced by Caravaggio and already established European artists like Peter Paul Rubens, Adam Elsheimer and Annibale Carracci who flocked to the Eternal City at the turn of the 16th century in pursuit of the lucrative commission offered by Pope Clement VIII and his cardinals.

5) AFRICA: THE HIGH PRICE OF DENIAL Drugs, no matter how effective, can fight AIDS only when delivered to the people who need them. On that front, the war against HIV has been a dismal failure. Some 72% of the world's estimated 5.3 million new infections per year are in Africa. Yet virtually no one is getting treatment. new analyses show this is more than a health catastrophe: The epidemic can cause economic crises and pose national security risks for the U.S. 'Africa has no chance of developing without first addressing AIDS, malaria, and other diseases,' says economist Jeffrey D. Sachs, director of the Harvard Center for International Development. If these diseases are not controlled, the continent will slow the growth of the global economy. And the societal breakdowns from disease may lead directly to conflicts and mass migrations requiring intervention by the West. 'There's a recognition by the CIA and the U.N. Security Council that this pandemic fundamentally threatens U.S. interests,' says Sachs. Compared with the huge cost of doing nothing, he says, spending $2 billion to $5 billion to prevent and treat AIDS is a bargain. The Toll of HIV in Sub-Saharan Africa Data: Joint U.N. Program on HIV/AIDS BUSINESSWEEK, FEBRUARY What does the text call 'a bargain'? | |
The cost of new researches regarding the cure of AIDS The cost of preventing and treating AIDS The cost of about $ 2 million for Africa to prevent AIDS The cost of about $ 5 million for Africa to treat AIDS The threat that Africa faces to have millions of people killed by AIDS |
6) On what front, according to the text, the fight against HIV hasn't been a success so far? | |
Nobody is getting treatment in Africa, even those who have been infected for years Half of the 5.3 million new infections aren't being treated 72% of infected people in Africa are not under treatment Infected people in Africa aren't being treated People who really need treatments all over the world are not getting them |
7) Mass migrations and intervention by the Western world will be | |
a consequence of the lack of control of certain diseases in Africa a cause of wrong treatments in Africa a cause of new cases of AIDS reported year after year consequence of bad administration of drugs in Africa consequence of the lack of medicines to provide to the affected in Africa |
8) The publicly funded Human Genome Project and Celera, the private company run by Craig Venter, have found some astonishing things about our genes 99.9%: The proportion of genes that are identical in every person around the world. It is an indication of how recently the human species arouse. 40,000: The maximum number of genes in our cells; it may be as few as 27,000. Until now scientists believed that there were around 100,000. 40%: The proportion of our genes that are similar to those of the nematode worm; 60% are like those of the fruit fly and 90% are similar to those found in mice. 99%: Part of our DNA that we share with chimpanzees. Only one major difference has been found: humans lack a certain sugar on the surface of body cells. 223: Genes that our ancestors appear to have acquired directly from bacteria. 500: Olfactory genes we lost by prehumans, apparently sacrificed to concentrate on sight and other senses. 98.5%: Part of the genome that is taken up by so-called jumping genes, believed by scientists to be just clutter. 33%: Proportion of the sequence of human genes that has been finalized. Researchers estimate it will take another two years to complete the whole. Sources: International Herald Tribune; New Scientist (2, 3, 4 and 5); International Herald Tribune; New Scientist TIME, FEBRUARY 26, 2001 According to the text | |
so far most scientists were sure that there were only 27,000 genes in our cells it's almost certain now that humans appeared not so long ago 90% of all humans have very similar genes to those of rats. chimps have more genes than most human beings humans living today have been losing 500 olfactory genes year after year |
9) It's very possible that | |
any worm has more genes than a human being it's now proven that humans have 100,000 genes, or so very small amounts of genes are equal in every person it will take a couple of years for surveyors to complete the whole sequence of human genes chimpanzees don't have a certain kind of sugar on the surface of body cells |
10) According to the text you've just read | |
our forefathers most probably got genes from bacteria 33% of human genes are yet to be discovered scientists know now that a small part of the genome is made up of clutter 99.9% of our genes look like a mouse's genes flies have up to 90% of genes that are similar to humans |
11) Complete the sentence below with the correct Question-Tag: 'Until now scientists believed that there were around 100,000 genes in our cells, _____________?' | |
weren't there were there don't they did they didn't they |
