They take organs from one body and integrate them into another granting the lucky recipient a longer better life.
less is more 翻译Sadly every year thousands of other people are less fortunate dying while they wait for suitable organs to be found. The terrible constraint on organ transplantation is that every life extended depends on the death of someone young enough and healthy enough to have organs worth transplanting. Such donors are few. The waiting lists are long and getting longer. 2. Freedom from this constraint is the dream of every transplant surgeon. So far attempts to make artificial organs have been disappointing: nature is hard to mimic. Hence the renewed interest in trying to use organs from animals. 3. Doctors in India have just announced that they have successfully transplanted a heart from a pig into a person. Pressure to increase the number of such xenotransplants异种器官移植seems to be growing.

on. During 1996 at least two big 5 reports on the subject -- one in Europe and one in America -- were published.

From this research and my clinical observations as a family physician I found that it is possible to walk your way to better health a trimmer body and a longer life -- no matter what your age. 6 翻译练习一英译汉参考答案一、将下列句子译成汉语  1. 与其说那是一幅画不如说那是一首诗。2. 他借酒写得好诗句。3. 他装得极为谦虚。4. 火是无孔不入的可是它更爱窜入通风的地方。5. 循声而去便轻而易举地到了那间屋子。6. 我陪着小心用温和的口吻询问开往哈蒂斯堡下一斑车的情况。7. 在社交场合你就是感到情绪压抑也不要表露出来。8. 患有流感的幼儿和老人可能并发细菌性肺炎。9. 他要一位
