A

B


参考解析

解析:
录音中描述到目前多数治疗方法(20世纪70年代研发出来的药物)只是杀死分裂细胞,这阻止了肿瘤(tumours)的生长,但是也会杀死所有增生的细胞。录音中接着指出“The action of these drugs on normal tissues causes the side effects”,可见这些药物在正常组织上发生作用会导致产生副作用。题干中并未指出这种副作用产生的条件。
【录音原文】
Most current therapies—drugs that were developed during the first golden era, in the 1970s—simply attack dividing cells. That stops tumours, but it also kills all rapidly proliferating cells, regardless of their origin, function or state of health. The action of these drugs on normal tissues causes the side effects, including nausea, fatigue and weakened immune systems, associated with cancer treatment. By contrast, the new generation of drugs, several of which are already in the clinic, attack only deranged cells. These drugs are designed to fix the specific molecular problems in a tumour that drive its growth.
