The 65-year-old is one of six people in the world to receive gene therapy for a【C1】______type of inherited eye disease【C2】______choroideremia(an eye disease). The first published【C3】______of the trial, released today, suggest that【C4】______people’s genes can stop the disease from causing blindness—and【C5】______sight in those whose vision has become【C6】______.
Choroideremia is caused by【C7】______in the CHM gene. In those who have the disease, a【C8】______of REP-1 means that cells in the eyes stop working and slowly begin to【C9】______causing blindness. Enter gene therapy, which uses a virus to insert a【C10】______copy of a gene into cells with a gene defect and could【C11】______be used to treat many genetic conditions. Robert MacLaren of the University of Oxford and his colleagues decided to see if it could【C12】______choroideremia.

选项
A、but
B、so
C、then
D、and
答案
A
解析
空格前的benefits指的是基因疗法的好效果,可知这里还是说此疗法的效果,此空格前说疗效可持续2年之久,空格盾又说这只是一个案例而已,构成了转折关系,故选A。
