两个物种的协同进化是协同系统发生研究的主要领域之一。
使用协同进化这个术语时要区别协同趋异(Codivergence)和协同成种(Cospeciation)。
协同进化(Coevolution)指的是两个物种内或相互作用的种群内彼此进化变化的一般过程。
协同趋异指平行分支的进化过程(当一个物种分支为两个或多个物种时)或者说一个生物体实体的成种导致与此相关的其它生物体实体的成种[2]。
协同趋异与协同成种常常交替使用,一些学者认为协同趋异是相关类群分成截然不同的群体的过程,注重过程;而协同成种指的是它们已经独立进化为不同的物种,注重结果[3]。
协同趋异或协同成种可以说是协同进化的一部分。

Transmitted by ingesting the parasite eggs,AE is excreted in the feces of the definitive host and then infected by oral ingestion of parasite eggs in ungulates and humans (intermediate hosts) ~.It is mainly prevalent in animal husbandry areas and is globally distributed, principally in Asia, Africa, South America, the Middle East, Central Europe, North America, Alaska, Hokkaido, Japan and western China 34. In 98% of the cases, the liver and lungs are the main infected organs presenting with tumor - like invasive and metastatic growth. Approximately 90% of the patients die within 10 to 15 years without treatment^5. It is estimated that there are more than 18,000 new AE cases worldwide each year with China accounting for 91 %[6•Owing to the risk of the disease, AE has been listed by the World Health Organization ( WHO) as one of the 20 neglected tropical diseases. AE is a food borne parasite that ranks third in the global impact among the 24 parasitic diseases^4.Macrophages are highly plastic which can respond to the microenvironmental signals by changing their phenotypes to obtain corresponding functions. There are two major subpopulations of macrophages with different functions, including classically activated macrophage (Ml )and alternatively activated macrophage ( M2) 17. Ml and M2 phenotypes are the two extremes of macrophage polarization which jointly regulate the homeostasis of its internal environment. The two phenotypes are reversible and interconvertible. Ml has proinflammato- ry, antigen -presenting, host immune clearance of pathogens and tumor cells,while M2 mainly inhibits in- 2flammation and promotes tumor growth,invasion and metastasis18,9.Peroxisome proliferation -activated receptors (PPARs) are a family of adopted orphan nuclear receptors involved in lipid metabolism and inflammation, including PPARa, PPAR(3/8, and PPAR^. Each of species has distinct ligands, target genes and biological functions 10. PPARs are involved in the metabolism and homeostasis of fat and carbonate in the organism as well as cell proliferation and differentiation, vascular biology, inflammation and carcinoma 13. PPARs are mainly expressed in the kidney, liver, small intestine, heart and other tissues to activate fatty acid catabolism14. PPARs play an important role in regulating immune response which affect mononuclear cells, macrophages, neutrophils, peripheral blood lymphocytes, dendritic cells,T cells,NK cells and eosinophils 15,16. Besides,it is found in these studies that PPAR (3,7are also involved in the process of macrophage polarization in metabolic and infectious diseases 7. Since the effect of PPAR p, 7on macrophage polarization in AE has not been reported yet, the purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of PPAR on macrophage polarization in AE.1. Material and Methods1.1 Collection of echinococcus multilocularis proto-scolex( PSC)PSC was extracted from the infected gerbils in the laboratory, while PSC in gerbils was inoculated from the naturally infected wild voles at Guoluo of Qinghai province in China. The gerbils were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. Then, they were placed in the cell plates on the benchtop to open the abdominal cavity and the lesions were separates and removed. Next, the lesionswere cut into a paste with scissors,and the funnel was placed at the mouth of a 50 mL centrifuge tube for filtration with an 80 - molybdenum cell screen. PSC was allowed to sediment for 15 mins in the 50 mL centrifuge tube. After PSC settled at the bottom, the supernatant was sucked out with a straw and normal saline was added to the centrifuge tube. The above was repeated 3-5 times. Finally,a little PSC was stained with Trypan blue to observe the activity and count of the nodes. PSC was incubated in RPMI 1640 ( Gibco) culture medium containing 100 U/mL penicillin,100 jxg/mL streptomycin ,20% heat -inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) ,0. 45% yeast extract and 0. 4% glucose in a 5% C02 atmosphere at 37 for 10 h. Then,PSC was used in the subsequent experiment.1.2 Co-culture experiment of RAW264. 7 macrophages with PSCRAW264. 7 macrophages ( Procell Life Science & Technology Co,. Ltd ) were cultured in Dulbecco's modified eagle media( DMEM) solution containing 10% FBS, 100 U/mL penicillin and 100 |xg/mL streptomycin in a 5% C02atmosphere at 37 T i. All the experimental interventions were carried out on the third pas- sage of cells. The cell suspension was dropped onto the cell count plate and counted under the light microscope. The cells were placed in the plates of DMEM solution containing 10% FBS. The non - adherent cells were removed after incubation for 4 h, and the adherent RAW264. 7 macrophages were added into 1mL DMEM containing 1000 viable PSC for co-culture. The cells were collected for total RNA and protein extraction on days 1,3,5 and 7 after co-culture.1.3 Total RNA isolation and real-tim e polymerase chain reaction(PCR)Total RNA was extracted using RNA Simple Total RNA Kit(TIAN GEN®),and the purity of RNA was de- termined by calculating the absorbance ratio at 260 nm and 280 nm. It was showed that the ratio of 1. 8〜2. 0 was suitable for cDNA synthesis. cDNA was synthesized by reverse transcription of 1jxg of total RNA using the PrimeScript RT Reagent kit ( TaKaRa ). For real - time polymerase chain reaction(PCR) ,80 ng cDNA was added in a 15 |xL reaction system containing each primer and TB Green PreMix (TaKaRa ). The reaction conditions were 95 °C for 30 s, followed by 40 cycles of 95 X l for 5 s,60 T! for 30 s and the melting curve analysis at 63 Tl 〜95 Tl. 18S rRNA was used as a housekeeping gene.Relative mRNA amounts were quantified by the 2 A A<丨method. The mice gene primers ( provided by Sangon Biotech)were as follows (Table 1).i 1Mice primersT N F-aG M-C S F M-C S FI F N-7RI Arg-1T G F-pP P A R pP P A R7 18S r R N A C A G C C G A T G G G T T G T A C C T TT C G T C T C T A A C G A G T T C T C C T T C AC C C A A C G A G T C A G C A A C T C AT G T A G C C T C A C C G C C T A T C A CA C A C G G C A G T G G C T T T A A C C TC A A C A A T T C C T G G C G T T A C C T TG G A C C A G A A C A C A C G C T T C C T TG T A C T G T C G G T T T C A G A A G T G C CG T A A C C C G T T G A A C C C C A T TG T G T G G G T G A G G A G C A C G T AC C C G T A G A C C C T G C T C G A AC A G C A C A A T G C C C C A A G A GT T G T T G T T T G G G A G A G A T T C C AG G T A G T C A G T C C C T G G C T T A T G GG A C G T C A A A A G A C A G C C A C T C AC C G A C A T T C C A T G T T G A G G C T GA T C T C C G C C A A C A G C T T C T C C TC C A T C C A A T C G G T A G T A G C GPrimer Forward( 5,-3,)Reverse( 5,-3,)1.4 Western blot analysisThe levels of PPAR(3N7and ACTIN protein expression were measured by the Western blot analysis. The whole protein extracted from RAW264. 7 macrophage was separated by 10% SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis ( SDS - PAGE ) . The protein samples were transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membranes and incubated with PPARp ( 1:1000, Abeam) ,PPAR 7(1: 800, Cell Signaling Technology), and ACTIN ( 1:8000, protein tech® ) antibody over-3night at 4 . Next,the membranes were washed thrice using a mixture of tris-buffered saline and polysorbate 20and incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody( 1:10000, Abeam) at room temperature for 1h before signal detection by the chemiluminescent substrate.1.5 Liver histology and immunofluorescence analysisFor confirming the normal liver tissue and liver lesions ranging, the liver tissue samples were fixed to 10% formalin, paraffin-embedded , hematoxylin and eo- sin. Immunofluorescence was performed to detect the area density of M1/M2 polarization and the positive intensity of PPA Rp,^ in macrophages about the normal liver and liver lesions ranging which were obtained from clinically resected specimens of patients ( Table2 ) with hepatic alveolar echinococcosis ( HAE ). The nucleus turned blue by labeling with DAPI. In immunofluorescence mono - staining, Ml marker CD86 ( Servicebio ) and M2 marker CD206( Servicebio) turned red by labeling with CY3 ( Servicebio).In immunofluorescence double staining, M1/M2 markers were all green - labeled with FITC ( Servicebio) ,and P P A R p^were red-labeled with CY3. Expression quantification of markers was performed with the Image-Pro plus 6. 0 open-sources developed at Media Cybernetics in USA.Table 2 General clinical data of the patients (n = 25)Basic information Cases Percentage Sex Male1352. 0%Female1248. 0% Ag e彡401664. 0%<40936. 0% Infection Stage Middle stage1040. 0%Late stage1560. 0%1.6 Statistical analysis interferon -"y receptor 1 (INF-"y R1) peaked on the thirdData were represented as mean ± standard error day after treatment, showing a trend of rising first andof the mean( SEM ) using Student^s t-test.

Results2. 1RAW264. 7 macrophage mainly polarized toward Ml in the early stage and M2in the late stage after in vitro PSC stimulationTo further understanding the polarization of RAW264. 7 macrophages during co-culture with PSC, the polarization trend of macrophages was observed by detecting M l/M l polarization markers through real -then decreasing ( Figure 1A 〜B ). As shown in Figure 1C,the mRNA level of granular macrophage - colony stimulating factor( GM-CSF) increased significantly on the third day until it reached a peak on clay 5 and then began to decline. Figure ID demonstrates that the changes in Ml markers (T N F-a, I NF-^y Kl,and GM- CSF )increased first and then decreased after RAW264. 7 co-cultured with PSC. Compared with the controls,the increased mHNA levels of Arg-1 transforming growth factor-p(TGF-(3) and GM-CSF were increasing significantly on day 3 after treatment and then gradually reached peaking on day 7 ( Figure 2A 〜C). It was showed in Figure 2D that the change of M2 markers illustrated an overall upward trend after RAW264. 7 co-cultured with PSC. The above results suggested that macrophage co-culture with PSC is mainly polarizedtime PCR.

The progression of HAE is slow with no obvious clinical symp- 6toms. The herdsmen in western China are primarily in the middle and late stages after being diagnosed with the disease. Therefore, all the clinical surgical samples were collected from patients with advanced stage.First, hematoxylin and eosin ( HE ) staining were2. 2PPA Rp,^ play an important role in the polarization of macrophages co-cultured with PSCFor a better understanding of the effect of PPARp,7on macrophage polarization in AE, the expression of PPA Rp,^ macrophages after co-culture with PSC was detected by real-time PCR and Western blot analysis. Figure 3A reveals that the expression of PPARp mRNA reached its peak on day 3 after RAW264. 7 co 一cultured with PSC and then began to decline. However, Figure 3B showed that PPAR7mRNA expression of macrophages was significantly lower than the control at one day of co-culture with PSC and significantly increased after five days of co - culture. The overall change in the trend of PPAR(3, y in RAW264. 7 co - cultured with PSC was that PPARp first increased and then decreased, while PPAR7continued to increase ( Figure 3C). Moreover, the protein expression level of PPARp in the macrophages c〇-cul- tured with PSC also showed a trend of increase, followed by the decrease. The level of the protein was the highest on day 3. The expression level of PPAR7 showed an overall upward trend with the highest expression on day 7 ( Figure 3D). Based on the results mentioned above, it was found that the expression of PPARp in RAW264. 7 co-cultured with PSC was consistent with the changing of Ml polarization marker, and that of PPAR7was consistent with the changing of M2 polarization marker. Therefore, it was considered that PPARp mainly regulated the polarization of Ml macrophages in the early stage of infection in AE disease, while PPAR7mainly regulated the polarization of M2 macrophages in the late stage,cP P A R P ControlCo-Cultrue P P A R y ControlCo-Cultrue+P P A Rpperformed on all samples before immunofluorescence detection for confirming the normal liver tissue and liver lesions ranging. The liver lesions ranging was defined as the peripheral inflammatory infiltration zone that a- way from the central necrotic tissue 0. 5 〜1 cm ( Figure 4A). As shown in Figure 4B, there are prominent hepatic lobules in the normal liver tissues with extensive infiltration of granulocytes and lymphocytes in liver lesions ranging. Immunofluorescence staining was performed on the markers of M1/M2 in the normal liverand liver lesions ranging( Figure 5A 〜B ). The results showed that M2 ( CD206 ) polarization macrophages were significantly increased in the liver lesions ranging, while Ml ( CD 86) polarization macrophages were significantly decreased compared with the normal liver (Figure 5C 〜D ). These data demonstrate that macrophage polarization in the middle and late stages of HAE was mainly M2 polarization in the liver lesions ranging, which also verified the results of the in vitro experiment of macrophage polarization toward M2 in the late stage.Ax 10°Liver lesion rangingx400x200 x400Hematoxylin and eosin ( H E ) staining was performed on all clinical samples before immunofluorescence detection to confirm the normal liver tissue and liver lesion rangingFigure 4 HE staining of clinical samples7A~B:Immuno f l u o r e s c e n c e staining of M l(C D86)and M2(C D206)markers in the normal liver and liver lesion ranging.

For further verification of this result, the expression of PPA Rp,^ in macrophages was detected by immunofluorescence double staining. As shown in Figure 6A 〜B,the M1,M2 macrophages and PPARp in the nomial liver and liver lesions ranging were simultaneously stained by immunofluorescence. By analyzing the average intensity of PPARp t'xpression in Ml and M2 macrophages, it was found that the PPARp expression in I V11macrophages was significantly decreased compared with that in normal liver,and the expression of PPAF^p in M2 macrophages was not signifi- cantly different from that in normal liver( Figure 6C 〜I)). Meanwhile, immunofluorescence staining and analysis of PPAR7in Ml and M2 macrophages showed that the expression of PPAR7in M2was significantly increased compared with the control.

DiscussionsIt is observed in this study that the macrophage polarization could be induced during the co-culture of PSC and macrophages, and the increased expression of PPARp,^y in macrophages was related to the polarization of Ml and Ml macrophages respectively. The data also confirmed that the infection of larval echinococcus multilocularis leads to the polarization of macrophages. This co-culture model has its limitations as it is not a 10primary infection owing to the ingestion of oncospheres, nor is it a non-natural host. Most importantly, this study suggests that the regulation of macrophage polarization may l)e a potential target for AE therapy. The findings provide new clues to the basic pathogenesis and progression of AE so as to greatly advance our understanding of AE. Thus, it is significantly advancing our understanding of AE.AE is an alarming clinical zoonotic parasiticdisease with the chronic progressive liver damage caused by the continuous proliferation of multilocular echinococcosis in the larval stage as its main characteris- tic….Additionally,immune tolerance and/or immune downregulation is a remarkable feature that is increasingly observed as AE disease progresses to the chronic stage of infection 18. Studies have revealed that the pathological changes of AE are related to the infiltration of macrophages at specific stages of various functional types[丨9].Macrophages are a critical component of the innate immune system and a key regulator of normal homeostasis and patholog) -0-1They not only mediate the innate and specific immune responses of the body but also participate in the process of immune tolerance 22 . Macrophages have different functions owing to their different subtypes. Ml macrophages mainly have the function of proinflammatory, antigen presentation, host immune clearance of pathogens and tumor cells,while M2 macrophages have the function of anti-inflammatory, promoting wound healing, fibrosis, tissue repair, promoting tumor growth and infiltration. Through the co-culture of macrophages with PSC,it is observed that the macrophages were primarily Ml polarization before day 3,followed by M2 polarization. Therefore, it is speculated that the Ml polarization macrophages in the early stage of larval multilocular echinococcus infection were mainly responsible for the clearance of pathogens in the body. Other studies have indicated that the macrophages from mice infected with larval multilocular echinococcosis exhibited a lower ability to present an antigen to specific T lymphocytes compared with that in mice without infection 3.It was found in this study that PSC could induce the polarization of macrophages. However, macrophages are mainly polarized toward M2 with the progression of the disease, which is more conducive to the growth and infiltration of the pathogen, leading to the aggravation of the disease. Thus, macrophage polarization, mainly toward M2, may be an important mechanism for immune tolerance to pathogens in the late stage of HAE.Currently, it is critical to explore the molecular mechanism of macrophage polarization in AE disease. Several other studies revealed that PPARs play an important role in the regulation of macrophage polarization in the signal pathway. The expression of PPAR(3/8 in macrophages can be increased by activation of STAT6, thereby inhibiting the activation of JNK to regulate the transformation between Ml and M2[24. Additionally, STAT6/PPAR7pathway regulates the generation of many M2-type markers 25. Also, some cytokines ( such as T N F-a, IL-12, IL-23 , IL-27 , and IFN-7) activate PPARs,which will inhibit the production of proinflammatory cytokines. They are and are essential for the formation ,activation, and maintenance of M2 macrophage ~6. It is hypothesized that PPAR(3,7might mediate the regulation of Ml and M2 macrophages polari- zation in AE respectively. It is observed that the expression trend of PPARp,^ in Ml and M2 was consistent with the expression trend of M1/M2 polarization markers in both the in vitro and clinical sample experiments.The survival mechanism of echinococcus multiloc- ularis larvae is to protect itself from the body’s immune response. The pathology of AE is characterized by intense infiltration of the immune cells 27. After natural infection in the intermediate host, the immune system should encounter different stages of parasite development 17. When the parasite is not effectively suppressed by the surrounding protective immune response ,it eventually becomes a fully mature metaces- tode that will continue to grow until the host dies 28. This study suggests that PPAR(3,7are involved in the regulation of macrophage polarization in HAE. Therefore, it is considered that the direction of M1/M2 polarization could be regulated by regulating the signaling pathways of PPAR(3 and PPAR7in macrophage polarization. In the complete process of disease infection, more induction of macrophage polarization toward Ml and reduction of M2 polarization may slow the progression of the disease.In conclusion, we have demonstrated the role of PPAR(3,7on macrophage polarization in AE. The results of this study are important implications for further understanding of the AE pathogenesis, providing a potential target for AE treatment.Disclosure of conflict of interestThe authors declare no competing conflicts of interest.。

bighead carps are usually cultured as secondary species together with other carp species. The grow-out stocking density is 750-1500/ha of 13-15 cm fingerlings. If selective harvesting is to be practiced, a certain proportion of larger sized fish (up to 250 g) is also stocked. There is no special feeding/fertilization required for bighead when herbivorous and omnivorous fish are cultured as the main species. However,organic fertilizer is usually applied to raise natural food if bighead and silver carp are cultured as major species. The fish can reach marketable size (750-1500 g) within 8-10 months in China. The culture period may be much shorter in tropical and subtropical areas. The yield of bighead carp is usually 500-1000 kg/ha, which accounts for 10-15% of the total production.In Vietnam, bighead grow-out is conducted through polyculture with other species, such as grass carp, silver carp, rohu, mrigala, common carp and tilapia. Bighead carp is stocked as a minor species in the ponds, usually accounting for 3-5% of the total. However, bighead carp usually account for 5-7% of the total production. No special feeding for bighead carp is practised. The market size of bighead carp is 2.5-3 kg. Extensive culture in small lakes and reservoirsIn this system, bighead carp are usually stocked as the major species, with a stocking density of 150-750/ha, depending on the size and fertility of the water body. This level represents about 40-50% of the total number of fish stocked. The stocking size is usually 13-15 cm. A small percentage of large fingerlings (up to 250 g) is also stocked for selective harvesting to fully utilize the water and the available natural food. Neither feed nor fertilizer is used in this form of rearing. The production of bighead can reach 150-400 kg/ha, which accounts for 40-60% of total production.池塘和网拦鳙鱼的混养在中国,鳙鱼与其他鲤科鱼类通常作为次要种类。

This essay aims to explore the nature of malaria, its impacton global health, and the ongoing efforts to combat this deadly disease.Understanding MalariaMalaria is a complex disease with several species of the Plasmodium parasite responsible for infecting humans. Themost severe form of the disease is caused by Plasmodium falciparum, which can lead to severe anemia, organ failure, and even death if not treated promptly. The transmission ofthe disease is highly dependent on the presence of the Anopheles mosquito, which thrives in warm, humid climates.The Global ImpactThe World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there were 229 million cases of malaria worldwide in 2019, resulting in over 409,000 deaths. The majority of these fatalities were among African children under the age of five, highlightingthe devastating impact of malaria on vulnerable populations. Economically, malaria imposes a significant burden, not only through direct healthcare costs but also through lostproductivity and impeded socio-economic development.Strategies for Combating MalariaThe fight against malaria involves a multifaceted approach that includes prevention, treatment, and research into new solutions. Key strategies include:1. Vector Control: The use of insecticide-treated bed nets and indoor residual spraying to reduce the mosquito population and limit the transmission of the disease.2. Diagnosis and Treatment: Rapid diagnostic tests and effective treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) are crucial to reducing the mortality rate from malaria.3. Vaccination: The development of a malaria vaccine has beena significant milestone. The RTS,S/AS01 (RTS,S) vaccine, also known as Mosquirix, is the first vaccine to demonstrate a protective effect against malaria in young children.4. Research and Development: Continued investment in research is essential for developing new drugs, diagnostics, and vaccines to combat drug-resistant strains of malaria.5. Community Education: Educating communities about the risks of malaria and how to prevent it is vital in reducing transmission rates.Challenges and the Road AheadDespite significant progress, challenges remain.

关于疟疾的介绍英语作文Malaria, a disease caused by Plasmodium parasites transmitted through the bite of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes, remains a significant global health challenge. Here's an introduction to malaria:Introduction:Malaria, a mosquito-borne infectious disease, poses a significant threat to public health, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. Despite substantial progress in controlling malaria over the years, it continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.Cause:The causative agents of malaria are Plasmodium parasites, with five species known to infect humans: Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. ovale, P. malariae, andP. knowlesi. Among these, P. falciparum and P. vivax are the most common and virulent species.Transmission:Malaria is primarily transmitted through the bite of female Anopheles mosquitoes. When an infected mosquitobites a human host, it injects sporozoites, the infectious form of the parasite, into the bloodstream. These sporozoites then travel to the liver, where they multiply and mature into merozoites, leading to the onset of symptoms.Symptoms:The clinical manifestations of malaria vary depending on the species of Plasmodium involved and the individual's immunity. Common symptoms include fever, chills, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue. In severe cases, malaria can progress rapidly to complications such as cerebral malaria, severe anemia, respiratory distress, and organ failure, posing a grave threat to life.Diagnosis:Diagnosing malaria typically involves examining blood samples under a microscope to detect the presence of Plasmodium parasites. Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) arealso available, providing quick and accurate results, particularly in resource-limited settings where microscopy may not be readily accessible.Treatment:The treatment of malaria depends on factors such as the species of Plasmodium involved, the severity of the disease, and the individual's age and medical history. Artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) are currently thefrontline treatment for uncomplicated P. falciparum malaria, while other antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine and primaquine are used for other species and in certainregions where drug resistance is not prevalent.Prevention:Preventing malaria relies on a multifaceted approach, including vector control measures such as insecticide-treated bed nets, indoor residual spraying, and environmental management to reduce mosquito breeding sites. Additionally, chemoprophylaxis with antimalarial drugs may be recommended for travelers visiting endemic areas, along with personal protective measures such as wearing long-sleeved clothing and using insect repellents.Challenges:Despite concerted efforts to control malaria, several challenges persist, including the emergence and spread of drug-resistant parasites, insecticide resistance in mosquitoes, limited access to healthcare services in remote areas, and inadequate funding for malaria control programs. Addressing these challenges requires sustained political commitment, innovative research, and collaboration among various stakeholders at the global, national, and local levels.Conclusion:In conclusion, malaria remains a significant global health burden, affecting millions of people worldwide and posing challenges to disease control efforts. While progress has been made in reducing malaria-related morbidity and mortality, concerted efforts are needed to achieve the goal of malaria elimination and eventual eradication. By investing in research, strengthening healthcare systems, and implementing comprehensive prevention and control strategies, we can mitigate the impact of malaria and improve the health and well-being of vulnerable populations.。

But other birds are wishing up, evolving some seriously impressive tricks to spot the cuckoo eggs.Cuckoos are often know asparasites, meaning that they hide their eggs in the nest of other species. To avoid detection, the cuckoos have evolved so that eggs seem reproduction of those of their preferred targets. If the host bird doesn’t notice the strange egg in its nest, the little cuckoo will actually take the entire nest for itself after it comes out, taking the other eggs on its back and dropping them out of the nest.To avoid this unpleasant fate for their young, the other birds have evolved a few smart ways to spot the fakes, which we’re only now beginning to fully understand. One of the most amazing finds is that birds have an extra colour-sensitive cell in their eyes, which makes them far more sensitive to ultraviolet wavelengths and allows them to see a far greater range of colours than humans can. This allows cautious birds to detect a fake egg which might be exactly the same to our eyes.Fascinatingly, we’re actually able to observe different bird species at very different points in their evolutionary war with the cuckoos. For instance, some cuckoos lay their eggs in the nests of the redstarts. The blue eggs these cuckoos lay are practically alike to those of the redstarts, and yet they are still sometimes rejected. Compare that with cuckoos who target dunnocks. While those birds lay perfectly blue eggs, their cuckoo invaders just lay white eggs with brown irregular shaped spots. And yet dunnocks barely ever seem to notice the obvious trick.Biologists suspect these more easily fooled species like the dunnocks are on the same evolutionary path as the redstarts, but they have a long way to go until they evolve the same levels of suspicion. What’s remarkable is that the dunnocks fakes are so bad and the redstart ones so good, and yet cuckoos are still more successful with the former than the latter.It speaks to just how thoroughly a species’ behavior can be changed by the pressures of natural selection, or it might just be a bit of strategic cooperation on the part of the dunnocks. Biologists have suggested that these birds are willing to tolerate a parasite every so often because they don’t want to risk accidentally getting rid of one of their own eggs.4. This passage can be most likely found in a ________.A. science surveyB. nature magazineC. zoo advertisementD. travel journal5. What does the underlined word “parasite” in paragraph 2 most probably refer to?A. Animals that work together to raise young.B Small harmful animals such as worms or mice.C. Animals that can adapt to changing environments.D. Animals which live on or inside other host animals.6. Which of the following is TRUE about the dunnock according to the passage?A. It is colour-blind and therefore cannot identify foreign eggs in the nest.B. It can easily remove cuckoo eggs from the nest because fakes are so bad.C. It is a host bird that is more likely to raise a cuckoo chick than the redstart.D. It is unable to evolve and hence accepts cuckoo eggs that appear in the nest.7. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Dunnocks may eventually learn to recognise foreign eggs.B. Redstarts seem to be less suspicious compared to dunnocks.C. Cuckoo birds are good at taking responsibility for their own young.D. It is very easy for cuckoos to imitate the colouring of the dunnock’s egg.COne billion people in the world are short of water. How can this problem be solved. Some suggestions have been to desalinate ocean water or to build enormous water pipelines from areas where water is abundant. (Suggestions such as these prove extremely expensive when they are actually used.) One possibility that scientists are considering is pulling icebergs from either the North Pole or the South Pole to parts of the world with a water shortage. Although many questions must be answered before such a project could be tried, moving icebergs seems a reasonable possibility in the future.Engineers, mathematicians, and glaciologists from a dozen countries have been considering the iceberg as afuture source of water. Saudi Arabia is particularly interested in this project because it has a great water shortage. Scientists estimate that it would take 128 days to transport a large iceberg (about 1/2 square mile) to Saudi Arabia. Yet the iceberg would be completely melted by the 104th day. Therefore, insulation would be essential, but how to insulate the iceberg remains an unsolved problem.The problems in transporting an iceberg are numerous. The first problem is choosing the iceberg to pull. The icebergs that form in the North Pole are quite difficult to handle because of their shape. Only a small portion extends above the water — most of the iceberg is below the surface, which would make it difficult to pull. South Pole icebergs, on the other hand, are flat and float like table tops. Thus they would be much easier to move.How can a 200-million-ton iceberg be moved. No ship is strong enough to pull such enormous weight through the water. Perhaps several ships could be used. Attaching ropes to an iceberg this size is also an enormous problem. Engineers think that large nails or long metal rods could be driven into the ice. What would happen if the iceberg splits into several pieces during the pulling. Even if an iceberg with very few cracks were chosen, how could it be pulled through stormy waters. Furthermore, once the iceberg reached its destination, very few ports would be deep enough to store it.All of these problems must be solved before icebergs can become a reasonable source of water. Yet scientists estimate that it will be possible to transport them in the near future. Each year, enough icebergs form to supply the whole world with fresh water for a full year. In addition, icebergs are free and nonpolluting. As a solution to the world’s water problems, icebergs may be a workable possibility.8. What is a problem in transporting iceberg?A.

Rising from the center of the Arctic Basin, the flag sent a clear message to the surrounding nations: Russia had just laid claim(权利) to the vast oil and gas reserves contained in this underwater area.AfterRussia, theUnited States,Norway,SwedenandFinlandare all trying to gain profit. Projections show that the area of land and sea that falls within theArctic Circleis home to an estimated 90 billion barrels of oil, an incredible 13% of Earth’s reserves. It’s also estimated to contain almost a quarter of untapped global gas resources. But long before this oil race began, how did theArcticbecome so rich in energy?“The first thing you realize is that theArctic—unlike the Antarctic—is an ocean surrounded by continents”, Alastair Fraser, a geoscientist from Imperial College London, said. Firstly, this means there’s a huge quantity of organic material available, in the form of dead sea creatures such as plankton and algae, which form the basis of what will ultimately become oil and gas. Secondly, the surrounding ring of continents means that the Arctic Basin contains a high proportion of continental crust(大陆地壳), which makes up about 50% of its oceanic area. That’s significant because continental crust typically contains deep depressions called basins, into which organic matter sinks.Here, it gets inserted in rock and preserved in anoxic(缺氧) waters, meaning they contain little oxygen. “Normally, in a shallow sea with lots of oxygen, it would not be preserved. But if the sea is deep enough, the oxygenated waters at the top will be separated from the anoxic conditions at the base,” Fraser explained. Conserved within these oxygen-free basins, the matter maintains compounds that finally make it useful as an energy source for millions of years in the future.12. Why didRussiaplant a national flag onto the Lomonosov Ridge?A. To tell surrounding countries its armed forces.B. To show its advanced technology of submarines.C.

Oxygen only exists in the top part of the ocean.B. Organic materials mostly exist in the basins with oxygen.C. Water containing oxygen turns organic materials into oil and gas.D. Oxygen-free environment counts in the formation of the arctic’s rich energy.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. What makes theArcticattractive?B.

Design of the Temperature Control System Based on AT89S51ABSTRACTThe principle and functions of the temperature control system based on microcontroller AT89S51 a re studied, and the temperature measurement unit consists of the 1-Wire bus digital temperature sensor DS18B20. The system can be expected to detect the preset te mperature, display time and save monitoring data. An alarm will be given by system if the temperat ure exceeds the upper and lower limit value of the temperature which can be set discretionarily and then automatic control is achieved, thus the temperature is achieved monitoring intelligently within a certain range. Basing on principle of the system, it is easy to make a variety of other non-linear control systems so long as the software design is reasonably changed. The system has bee n proved to be accurate, reliable and satisfied through field practice.KEYWORDS: AT89S51; microcontroller; DS18B20; temperatureI. INTRODUCTIONTemperature is a very important parameter in human life. In the modern society, temperature contr ol (TC) is not only used in industrial production, but also widely used in other fields. With the impro vement of the life quality, we can find the TC appliance in hotels, factories and home as well. And t he trend that TC will better serve the whole society, so it is of great significance to measure and co ntrol the temperature.Based on the AT89S51 and temperature sensor DS18B20, this system controls the condition temp erature intelligently. The temperature can be set discretionarily within a certain range. The system can show the time on LCD, and save monitoring data; and automatically control the temperature w hen the condition temperature exceeds the upper and lower limit value. By doing so it is to keep th e temperature unchanged. The system is of high anti-jamming, high control precision and flexible design; it also fits the rugged environment. It is mainly used in people's life to improve the quality of the work and life. It is also versatile, so that it can be convenient to extend the use of the system. So the design is of profound importance. The general design, hardware design and software design of the system are covered.II. SYSTEM GENERAL DESIGNThe hardware block diagram of the TC is shown in Fig. 1. The system hardware includes the micro controller, temperature detection circuit, keyboard control circuit, clock circuit, Display, alarm, drive circuit and external RAM. Based on the AT89S51, the DS18B20 will transfer the temperature signa l detected to digital signal. And the signal is sent to the microcontroller for processing. At last the te mperature value is showed on the LCD 12232F. These steps are used to achieve the temperature detection. Using the keyboard interface chip HD7279 to set the temperature value, using the micro controller to keep a certain temperature, and using the LCD to show the preset value for controlling the temperature. In addition, the clock chip DS1302 is used to show time and the externalRAM 62 64 is used to save the monitoring data. An alarm will be given by buzzer in time if the temperature exceeds the upper and lower limit value of the temperature. III. HARDWARE DESIGN A. Microc ontrollerThe AT89S51 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcontroller with 4K bytes of in-system programmable Flash memory. The device is manufactured using Atmel’s high-density nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the industry-standard 80C51 instruction set and pinout. The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system or by a conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with in-system programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89S51 is a powerful microcontroller which provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications. Minimum system of the microcontroller is shown in Fig. 2. In order to save monitoring data, the 6264 is used as an external RAM. It is a stati c RAM chip, low-power with 8K bytes memory. B. Temperature Detection CircuitThe temperature sensor is the key part in the system. The Dallas DS18B20 is used, which support s the 1-Wire bus interface, and the ON-BOARD Patented is used internally. All the sensor parts and the converting circuit are integrated in integrated circuit like a transistor [1]. Its measure range is -55℃ ~125 ℃, and the precision between -10℃ ~85 ℃ is ±0.5℃ [2 ,3]. The temperature collected by the DS18B20 is transmitted in the 1-Wire bus way, and this highly raises the system anti-jamming and makes it fit in situ temperature measurement of the rugged environment [4].There are two power supply ways for the DS18B20. The first is external power supply: the first pin of the DS18B20 is connected to the ground; the second pin serves as signal wire and the third is c onnected to the power. The second way is parasite power supply [5]. As the parasite power supply will lead to the complexity of the hardware circuit, the difficulty of the software control and the perfo rmance degradation of the chip, etc. But the DS18B20(s) can be connected to the I/O port of the mi crocontroller in the external power supply way and it is more popular. Therefore the external power su pply is used and the second pin is connected to the pin P1.3 of the AT89S51. Actually, if there are multipoint to be detected, the DS18B20(s) can be connected to the 1-Wire bus. But when the number is over 8, there is a concern to the driving and the more complex s oftware design as well as the length of the 1-Wire bus. Normally it is no more than 50m. To achieve distant control, the system can be designed in to a wireless one to break the length limit of the 1-Wire bus [6]. C. LCD CircuitThe LCD 12232F is used, which can be used to show characters, temperature value and time, and supply a friendly display interface. The 12232F is a LCD with 8192 128×32 pixels Chinese charact er database and 128 16×8 pixels ASCII character set graphics. It mainly consists of row drive/colu mn drive and 128×32 full lattice LCD with the function of displaying graphics as well as 7.5×2 Chin ese characters. It is in a parallel or serial mode to connect to external CPU [7]. In order to economi ze the hardware resource, the 12232F should be connected to the AT89S51 in serial mode with on ly 4 output ports used.The LCD grayscale can be changed by adjusting the variable resistor connected the pin Vlcd of the LCD. CLK is used to transmit serial communication clock. SID is used to transmit serial data. CS i s used to enable control the LCD. L+ is used to control the LCD backlight power. D. Clock Circuit The Dallas DS1302 is used, which is a high performance, low-power and real-time clock chip with RAM. The DS1302 serves in the system with calendar clock and is used to mo nitor the time. The time data is read and processed by the AT89S51 and then displayed by the LC D. Also the time can be adjusted by the keyboard.The DS1302 crystal oscillator is set at 32768Hz, and the recommended compensation capacitance is 6pF. The oscillator frequency is lower, so it might be possible not to connect the capacitor, and t his would not make a big difference to the time precision. The backup power supply can be connec ted to a 3.6V rechargeable battery. E. Keyboard Control CircuitThe keyboard interface in the system is driven by the HD7279A which has a +5V single power sup ply and which is connected to the keyboard and display without using any active-device. According to the basic requirements and functions of the system, only 6 buttons are neede d. The system's functions are set by the AT89S51 receiving the entered data. In order to save the external resistor, the 1×6 keyboard is used, and the keyboard codes are defined as: 07H, 0FH, 17 H, 1FH, 27H, 2FH. The order can be read out by reading the code instruction. HD7279A is connec ted to the AT89S51 in serial mode and only 4 ports are need. As shown in Fig. 6, DIG0~DIG5 and DP are respectively the column lines and row line ports of the six keys which achieve keyboard monitoring, decoding and key codes identification. F. Alarm CircuitIn order to simplify the circuit and convenient debugging, a 5V automatic buzzer is used in the alar m circuit [8]. And this make the software programming simplified. As shown in Fig. 7, it is controlled by the PNP transistor 9012 whose base is connected to the pin P2.5 of the AT89S51. When the te mperature exceeds the upper and lower limit value, the P2.5 output low level which makes the tra nsistor be on and then an alarm is given by the buzzer.G. Drive CircuitA step motor is used as the drive device to control the temperature. The four-phase and eight-beat pulse distribution mode is used to drive motor and the simple delay program is used to handle the time interval between the pulses to obtain different rotational speed. There are two output stat es for the step motor. One: when the temperature is over the upper value, the motor rotates revers ely (to low the temperature), while when lower than the lower limit value, the motor rotates normally (to raise the temperature); besides not equals the preset value. Two: when the temperature is at s omewhere between the two ends and equals the preset value, the motor stops. These steps are u sed to achieve the temperature control. In addition, the motor speed can also be adjusted by relative buttons. As shown in Fig. 8, the code data is input through ports A11~A8 (be P2.3~P2.0) of the A T89S51 and inverted output by the inverter 74LS04. Finally it is amplified by thepower amplifier 2803A to power the motor.IV. SOFTWARE DESIGNAccording to the general design requirement and hardware circuit principle of the system, as well a s the improvement of the program readability, transferability and the convenient debugging, the sof tware design is modularized. The system flow mainly includes the following 8 steps: POST (Power-on self-test), system initiation, temperature detection, alarm handling, temperature control, clock chip DS1 302 operation, LCD and keyboard operation. The main program flow is shown in Fig. 9. Give a little analysis to the above 8 tasks, it is easy to find out that the last five tasks require the real time ope ration. But to the temperature detection it can be achieved with timer0 timing 1 second, that is to sa y temperature detection occurs per second. The system initiation includes global variable definition , RAM initiation, special function register initiation and peripheral equipment initiation. Global variab le definition mainly finishes the interface definition of external interface chip connected to the AT89 S51, and special definition of some memory units. RAM initiation mainly refers to RAM processing. For example when the system is electrified the time code will be stored in the internal unit address or the scintillation flag will be cleared. The special function register initiation includes loading the ini tial value of timer and opening the interrupt. For example, when the system is electrified the timer i s initialized. The peripheral equipment initiation refers to set the initial value of peripheral equipmen t. For example, when the system is electrified, the LCD should be initialized, the start-up display should be called, the temperature conversion command should be issued firstly and the clock chip DS1302 should also be initialized. The alarm handling is mainly the lowering and the rai sing of temperature to make the temperatureremain with the preset range. When the temperature is between the upper and the lower limit value , it goes to temperature control handling, that is to say the temperature need to be raised or lowere d according to the preset value. By doing so make the condition temperature equal to the preset va lue and hence to reach the temperature target.V. CONCLUSIONThe temperature control system has the advantages of friendly human-computer interaction interface, simple hardware, low cost, high temperature control precision (error in the range of ±1 ℃), convenience and versatility, etc. It can be widely used in the occasions with -55℃ to 125℃ range, and there is a certain practical value.。
青蒿素英语作文简单Title: The Miracle of Artemisinin: A Breakthrough in Global Health.Artemisinin, a derivative of the sweet wormwood plant (Artemisia annua), has revolutionized the treatment of malaria, a deadly disease that has plagued humanity for centuries. Discovered and developed by Chinese scientists, artemisinin has saved millions of lives worldwide, particularly in malaria-endemic regions where access to effective healthcare is limited.Malaria is caused by parasites transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. These parasites invade red blood cells, multiplying rapidly and causing symptoms such as fever, chills, and fatigue. Left untreated, malaria can lead to severe health complications and even death.Before the advent of artemisinin, the treatment options for malaria were limited and often ineffective. Traditionalantimalarial drugs, such as chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine, had become increasingly ineffective due to the development of parasite resistance. This resistance was a major challenge, as it rendered these drugs unable to eliminate the parasites, allowing the disease to persist and even worsen.The discovery of artemisinin marked a turning point in the fight against malaria. Derived from the Chinese medicinal herb Artemisia annua, artemisinin and its derivatives exhibit remarkable antimalarial activity, targeting the parasite's lifecycle and preventing its multiplication within red blood cells. This unique mechanism of action has made artemisinin an effective treatment even against drug-resistant strains of malaria.The development of artemisinin was a remarkable feat of scientific research. Chinese scientists, led by Tu Youyou, conducted extensive research on traditional Chinese medicinal herbs in search of new antimalarial agents. Through meticulous experiments and clinical trials, they isolated and purified artemisinin from Artemisia annua,demonstrating its remarkable efficacy against malaria.The global impact of artemisinin has been profound. It has become a key component of combination therapies for malaria, significantly improving patient outcomes and reducing the mortality rate from the disease. In areas where malaria is endemic, artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) have been widely adopted as the first-line treatment for malaria, due to their high cure rates and low risk of resistance development.The success of artemisinin has also had a significant economic impact. Malaria-endemic regions often face a沉重的经济负担 due to the disease's impact on workforce productivity, healthcare costs, and lost economic opportunities. The widespread use of ACTs has helped to reduce this burden, improving the economic well-being of communities and nations.Moreover, the development of artemisinin has provided a powerful example of the potential of traditional medicine. By harnessing the knowledge and resources of traditionalmedicine systems, scientists have been able to identify and develop new and effective treatments for modern-day health challenges. This approach offers a promising avenue for future drug discovery, particularly in areas where access to modern healthcare is limited.In conclusion, artemisinin has emerged as a powerful weapon in the fight against malaria. Its remarkable antimalarial activity, unique mechanism of action, and broad spectrum of activity against drug-resistant parasites have transformed the treatment of this deadly disease. The global impact of artemisinin has been profound, saving millions of lives and improving the economic well-being of communities worldwide. As we look to the future, the continued research and development of new antimalarial agents, drawing inspiration from traditional medicine systems, holds the promise of further reducing the burden of malaria and promoting global health and well-being.。
