Ⅱ.阅读理解

A

Throughout July, 1945, the Japanese mainland，from Tokyo on Honshu northward to the coast of Hokkaido，was bombed as if an invasion were about to take place.In fact, something far more threatening was at hand, as the Americans were telling Stalin at Potsdam.

In 1939 physicists in the United States had learned of experiments in Germany demonstrating the possibility of atomic power and understood the potential damage of an atomic bomb.On August 2，1939, Albert Einstein warned President Roosevelt of the danger of Nazi Germany's advances in development of the atomic bomb.Eventually, the U．S.Office of Scientific Research and Development was created in June 1941 and given combined responsibility with the war department in Manhattan Project to develop a nuclear bomb.After four years of intensive research and development efforts，an atomic device was set off on July 16，1945，in a desert area at Alamogordo, New Mexico, generating an explosive power equal to that of more than 15，000 tons of TNT.Thus, the atomic bomb was born.Truman, the new U．S.president, believed that this terrible object might be used to defeat Japan in a way less costly of U．S.lives than a conventional invasion of the Japanese homeland.Japan's unsatisfactory response to the Allies Potsdam Declaration decided the matter.

On August 6，1945, an atomic bomb carried from Tinian Island in the Marianas in a specially equipped B­29 was dropped on Hiroshima, at the southern end of Honshu.The combined heat and blast destroyed everything in the explosion's immediate neighborhood，generated spontaneous fires that burned out almost 4.4 square miles completely, and killed between 70，000 and 80，000 people，in addition to injuring more than 70，000 others.A second bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, killed between 35，000 and 40，000 people，injured a like number, and ruined 1.8 square miles.

How far would you be willing to go to satisfy your need to know? Far enough to find out your possibility of dying from a terrible disease? These days that's more than an academic question, as Tracy Smith reports in our Cover Story.

There are now more than a thousand genetic(基因的)tests, for everything from baldness to breast cancer, and the list is growing.Question is, do you really want to know what might eventually kill you? For instance，Nobel Prize­winning scientist James Watson，one of the first people to map his entire genetic makeup, is said to have asked not to be told if he were at a higher risk for Alzheimer's(老年痴呆症)．

“If I tell you that you have an increased risk of getting a terrible disease, that could weigh on your mind and make you anxious, through which you see the rest of your life as you wait for that disease to hit you.It could really mess you up.”said Dr.Robert Green, a Harvard geneticist.

“Every ache and pain，” Smith suggested，“could be understood as ‘the beginning of the end’．That's right.If you ever worried you were at risk for Alzheimer's disease，then every time you can't find your car in the parking lot，you think the disease has started.”

Dr.Green has been thinking about this issue for years.He led a study of people who wanted to know if they were at a higher genetic risk for Alzheimer's.It was thought that people who got bad news would, for lack of a better medical term, freak out．But Green and his team found that there was “no significant difference” between how people handled good news and possibly the worst news of their lives.“In fact, most people think they can handle it.People who ask for the information usually can handle the information, good or bad，”said Green.
