题目

第十三届国际蛋白质和多肽大会于2020年4月25~28日在大连举行,本届会议的主题为永续解码生命的本质与功能。如图表示表皮生长因子(EGF)的结构。图中的字母为氨基酸的缩写,例如CYS代表半胱氨酸半胱氨酸之间可以形成二硫键(—S—S—,由两一SH脱去两个H形成)。回答下列问题:(1)通过蛋白质解码生命本质的原因是____________;氨基酸是生物体中蛋白质的基本组成单位,区别不同氨基酸的依据是________________,不同氨基酸在结构上具有的共同特点Andrew Ritchie, inventor of the Brompton folding bicycle, once said that the perfect portable bike would be “like a magic carpet…You could fold it up and put it into your pocket or handbag”. Then he paused: “But you’ll always be limited by the size of the wheels. And so far no one has invented a folding wheel.” It was a rare — indeed unique — occasion when I was able to put Ritchie right. A 19th-century inventor, William Henry James Grout, did in fact design a folding wheel. His bike, predictably named the Grout Portable, had a frame that split into two and a larger wheel that could be separated into four pieces. All the bits fitted into Grout’s Wonderful Bag, a leather case. Grout’s aim: to solve the problems of carrying a bike on a train. Now doesn’t that sound familiar? Grout intended to find a way of making a bike small enough for train travel: his bike was a huge beast. And importantly, the design of early bicycles gave him an advantage: in Grout’s day, tyres were solid, which made the business of splitting a wheel into four separate parts relatively simple. You couldn’t do the same with a wheel fitted with a one-piece inflated (充气的) tyre. So, in a 21st-century context, is the idea of the folding wheel dead? It is not. A British design engineer, Duncan Fitzsimons, has developed a wheel that can be squashed into something like a slender ellipse (椭圆). Throughout, the tyre remains inflated. Will the young Fitzsimons’s folding wheel make it into production? I haven’t the foggiest idea. But his inventiveness shows two things. First, people have been saying for more than a century that bike design has reached its limit, except for gradual advances. It’s as silly a concept now as it was 100 years ago: there’s plenty still to go for. Second, it is in the field of folding bikes that we are seeing the most interesting inventions. You can buy a folding bike for less than £1,000 that can be knocked down so small that it can be carried on a plane — minus wheels, of course — as hand baggage. Folding wheels would make all manner of things possible. Have we yet got the magic carpet of Andrew Ritchie’s imagination? No. But it’s progress. 1.We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the Brompton folding bike        . A.was portable B.had a folding wheel C.could be put in a pocket D.looked like a magic carpet 2.We can learn from the text that the wheels of the Grout Portable        . A.were difficult to separate B.could be split into 6 pieces C.were fitted with solid tyres D.were hard to carry on a train 3.We can learn from the text that Fitzsimons’s invention        . A.kept the tyre as a whole piece B.was made into production soon C.left little room for improvement D.changed our views on bag design 4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A.Three folding bike inventors B.The making of a folding bike C.Progress in folding bike design D.Ways of separating a bike wheel
