Your cell phone holds secrets about you. Besides the names and   50   that you’ve programmed into it, traces of your DNA remain on it, according to a new study.
　　DNA is genetic material that appears in every cell. Like your fingerprint, your DNA is unique to you   51   you have an identical twin. Scientists today routinely analyze DNA in blood, saliva (唾液), or hair   52   behind at the scene of a crime. The results often help detectives identify   53   and their victims. Your cell phone can   54   more about you than you might think.
　　Meghan J. McFadden, a scientist at McMaster University1in Hamilton, Ontario, heard about a crime in which the suspect（嫌疑犯）bled onto a cell phone and later dropped the   55 . This made her wonder whether traces of DNA remained on cell phones ___ even when no blood was involved.　    56   she and colleague Margaret Wallace of the City University of New York analyzed the flip-open phones(翻盖手机) of 10 volunteers. They used swabs(药签) to collect   57   traces of the users from two parts of the phone: the outside, where the user holds it, and the   58 , which is placed at the user’s ear.
The scientists scrubbed the phones using a solution made mostly of alcohol. The aim of washing was to   59   all detectable (可查明的) traces of DNA. The owners got their phones back for another week.   60   the researchers collected the phones and repeated the swabbing of each phone once more.
The scientists discovered DNA that   61   to the phone’s owner on each of the phones. Better samples were collected from the outside of each phone, but those swabs also   62    DNA of other people who had apparently also handled the phone.   63 , DNA showed up even in swabs that were taken immediately after the phones were scrubbed. That suggests that washing won’t remove all traces of evidence from a criminal’s device. So cell phones can now be added to the   64   of clues that can settle a crime-scene investigation.

I believe in miracles(奇迹)because I've seen so many of them．One day，a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old．“There’s a 36 in my upper jaw，”she said．“I told my own dentist it's nothing，but he   37 I come to see you”
Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her．He would 38 _to add something，but she stopped him．She wanted to tell everything herself．I found a large cancer that spread over much of the
39 of her mouth．A careful examination later   40 that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer．
During her next appointment，I explained to her the   41 of the problem She clasped my
hand in hers and said，“I know you’re worried about me，but I’m just 42 ．”
I thought otherwise．After considerable 43 _on my part，and kindness on her part because she wanted to 44_ me，she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon．She saw him，but as I expected， 45 _treatment．
About six months later she returned to my office，still energetic and 46 ．
“How are you?”I asked．
“I’m just fine，honey，”she responded 47 high spirits．“When can I get stared on fixing
my dentures(假牙)?”
Surprised to see her at all，I answered   48 ，“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll
see about it. ”
I couldn’t believe my eyes．The cancer that had 49 nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness 50 ．
I had read of such things happening，but had 51 _seen them with my own eyes．That was my first miracle．Since then I've seen many others，because they keep getting 52 _to see．In fact，miracles are daily events for me now．And people are a miracle， 53 through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to 54 the miracles of one another．
Since my first miracle，I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is __55 we choose to find it．
