第 43 題至第 46 題為篇章結構，各題請依文意，從四個選項中選出最合適者，各題答案內容不重複Before the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing took place, several athletes had faced charges of taking substances banned by the International Olympic Committee. ___43___ Far from quelling such practices, the advent of drug testing in sports in the late 1960s stimulated an arms race between regulators and the cheats.Today, some athletes and their coaches continue to risk their reputation, and sometimes the athletes’ long-term health, for the chance to dope undetected. ___44____ The latest drugs are designed with testing in mind, so that they either clear from the body quickly or do not produce the tell-tale metabolite spikes in blood and urine samples. As a result, the testing labs must also push to stay one step ahead of the cheats.Donald Berry, a biostatistician, summarizes what he sees as problems with the way doping tests are conducted. ___45___ The ability of an anti-doping test to detect a banned substance in an athlete is calibrated in part by testing a small number of volunteers taking the substance in question. But Berry says that individual labs need to verify these detection limits in larger groups that include known dopers and non-dopers under blinded conditions that mimic what happens during competition. ___46___ Only by publishing and opening to broader scientific scrutiny the methods by which testing labs engage in study may the anti-doping authorities avoid a sporting culture of suspicion, secrecy, and fear.
