Jazz guitarist Joel Harrison came of age in 1960s and 70s’Washington
，
but he never saw it as a place to build a career
as an adventurous
，
progressive musician
．
Everywhere he's gone
，
however
，
he’s taken the sounds of the city with him
．
“Growing up in that area allowed me access to a lot of different kinds of music
，
”says Harrison
，
61
，
who’s now based
in New York after living in Boston and San Francisco
．
“Southern music traditions—
old-time music
，
bluegrass
，
country
—
as
well as jazz and R&B
．
”
All
of
those
appear
to
some
degree
in
Free
Country
，
a
project Harrison
began
in 2003
as
a
means
of
filtering
(
渗
透
)country and bluegrass compositions through a up-to-date jazz sound and sensibility
．
On his new album
，
“Angel Band
：
Free Country V
ol.3
，
”Harrison
，
on guitar and vocals(
演唱
)
，
and his band take on many traditional bluegrass songs

Each
cut is really kind of its own
，
distinct sound world

Free Country albums

produced
14

his
reputation

Harrison drew inspiration from Danny Gatton
，
a D
．
C
．
guitar hero who similarly combines the local
musical currents
．

，
going to attend his countless performances
．
Harrison
is
also
a
composer
．
His
work
，
rooted
in
progressive
Jazz
but
exploring
multiple
types
，
is
often
through- composed
and
highly
complex
．
He
received
a
Guggenheim
scholarship
in2010
to
compose
and
record
an
，
eight-movement
piece
．
The
tunes
he
plays
with
Free
Country
are
simpler
，
based
on
conventions
of
folk
and
pop
music
—
which
，
for Harrison
，
is a large part of their appeal

Gene
therapy(
基因治疗
)is
a
revolutionary
new
technique
for
treating
people
with
health
problems
．
Up
until
very
recently
，
the most commonly available methods for treating patients were either through drugs or operations
．
Gene therapy
provides
a
third
option
for
treatment
by
transforming
or
replacing
cells
with
new
genetic
materials
and
2
instructions
．
Scientists can be very precise in the kinds of changes they make in patients
．
Gene therapy works by using a delivery system
，
such as a virus
，
to enter a patient’s body
．
Once inside the body
，
the
virus
combines
with
a
host
cell
and
delivers
the
new
DNA
．
The
proteins
then
begin
to
repair
the
affected
cells
．
New
techniques have focused on removing cells from the patients and transforming them outside the body before reintroducing
them to the patients
．
The two types of gene therapy are called somatic and germline
．
Somatic therapy refers to changing or replacing a body
cell
．
In this case
，
the treatment is restricted to the patient only
．
This
will not affect the patient’s future children because the
patient's germ(
生殖
)cells are unaffected
．
In germline therapy
，
the patient germ cells are treated
，
which may affect the
patient's future generation
．
This is highly controversial(
有争议的
)because it is not clear exactly how this might affect them
and further generations
．
For this reason
，
many countries have passed laws that prohibit this kind of treatment
．
Despite
the
promise
of
gene
therapy
，
there
are
still
many
barriers
that
need
to
be
overcome
before
it
comes
into
widespread use
．
One of the issues is that the use of viruses to deliver DNA may actually cause unexpected problems in
patients if the virus grows and attacks the body. Another problem is the nature of many diseases is very complex and spread
throughout multiple genes. The use of gene therapy to change a single gene in the body would probably not be sufficient as
a cure
．
Finally
，
the costs of gene therapy are high. Some gene therapy procedures may cost over$$1 million to undertake and
require specialized doctors and equipment
．
27
．
What does the underlined word“them”in paragraph 2 refer to?
A
．
Techniques
．
B
．
Cells
．
C
．
Patients
．
D
．
Proteins
．
28
．

A
．
Gene therapy has been put into practice widely
．
B
．
The cells of patients are developed in healthy people
．
C
．
Viruses entering the body can mix with host cells and form new DNA
．
D
．
Both somatic and germline therapy have side effects on later generations
．
29
．
What's the last paragraph mainly about?
A
．
The disadvantages of gene therapy
．
B
．
The promising future of gene therapy
．
C
．
The high costs of treatment procedures
．
D
