Questions 26--30 are based on the following passage.
For all the fevered work being done, however, science is still far away from the Brave
New World vision of engineering a perfect human -- or even a perfect tomato. Much more
research is needed before gene therapy (基因疗法) becomes commonplace, and many
diseases will take decades to conquer, if they can be conquered at all.
In the short run, the most practical way to use the new technology will be in genetic
screening. Doctors will be able to detect all sorts of flaws in DNA long before they can be
fixed. In some cases the knowledge may lead to treatments that delay the attack of the
disease or soften its effects. Someone with a genetic heart disease, for example, could follow
a low-fat diet. And if scientists determine that a vital protein is missing because the gene that
was supposed to make it is defective (有缺陷的), they might be able to give the patient an
artificial version of the protein. But in other instances, almost nothing can be done to stop
the damages brought on by genetic mutations (变异，突变).

A. science is still far away from perfection

B. for the near future
C. for the time being
D. after enough time
29. The use of the new technology in genetic screening includes all the following
EXCEPT
A. detecting all sorts of flaws in DNA
B. fixing all sorts of flaws in DNA
C. treatments that delay the attack of the disease

endorphins (内啡肽) stops and we're thrown into a panic.
33. After a press conference when relatives mentioned that they'd like to buy a fancy
