The case - of genetic testing has brought this question to light. Two _41_ legal cases - one in Britain, the other in Germany - stand to alter the way medicine is practiced. Both cases involve Huntingtons disease (HD), whose _42_ include loss of co-ordination（协调）, mood changes and cognitive（认知的）decline. It develops between the ages of 30 and 50, and is eventually fatal. Every child of an _43_ parent has a 50% chance of inheriting it.

If the right to know is _52_ recognized in Britain later this year, that my remove some uncertainties, but it will also create new ones. To what lengths should doctors go to track down and inform family members, _53_?It is the laws job to _54_ these rights for the modern age. When the law falls behind technology, somebody often pays the price, and currently that somebody is _55_. As these two cases demonstrate, they find themselves in a difficult situation - charged if they do, accused it they dont. 41. A. remarkable B. distinct C. contrasting D. dominant 42.
