If you've ever had a dog, you know just howdeep a connection you can develop with “man's best friend”. But a dog's life is much shorter than humans, about 12 to 15 years long, which means every dog owner has to go through the heart­breaking moment when their loving pet passes away.
Why not make a clone of that dog then? This is the solution offered by a South Korean company, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation. The company has already successfully cloned at least 400 dogs, mostly for US customers, ever since it pioneered the technique in 2005. Now, Sooam Biotech has introduced its business toUKdog owners as well, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.
To clone a dog, researchers first need to take a skin cell from a living dog or one that has just died. Meanwhile,another dog is selected to supply an egg. Researchers then replace the DNA in the egg with that from the skin cell and implant the egg into the womb (子宫) of a female dog. The egg grows into a puppy over the following two months. The whole process takes less than a day, but it comes at a shockingly high price — around ￡63,000.But if you can't afford it now, you can also save the cell in a laboratory andaccess it at a later date.
However, magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect copy of the original one. Just like identical twins of humans, they share the exactly same DNA but there will still be small differences between them. “The spots on a Dalmatian (斑点狗) clone will be different, for example” Insung Hwang, head of Sooam Biotech, told The Guardian.
Dog owners will also have to accept the fact that personality is not “cloneable”. Apart from genes, personality is also determined by upbringing and environment, which are both random elements that cloning technologies simply cannot overcome, Professor Tom Kirkwood atNewcastle University,UK, told The Telegraph.
Perhaps bringing our dogs back by cloning is not the best way to remember them after all.Kirkwood, a dog owner himself, pointed out, “An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”
4. What service does Sooam Biotech Research Foundation offer?
A. Making copies of pet dogs.
B. Giving pet dogs identical twins
C. Helping dogs give birth to more puppies.
D.Helping dog owners love their dogs more.
5. Which order is correct in the dog cloning process?
a. An egg is taken from another dog.
b. A skin cell is taken from the pet dog.
c. The egg grows into a puppy in two months.
d. The egg is placed in the womb of a female dog.
e. The DNA in the egg is replaced by the DNA from the skin cell.
A.a→d→b→e→c.
B. a→e→b→d→c
C. b→a→d→e→c.
D. b→a→e→d→c.
6. What can we learn about dog cloning from the passage?
A. It has not been put into practice until recently.
B. It is very popular among US andUKpet owners.
C. It might not give the owners an exactlysame dog.
D. It is very expensive and usually takes half a year to complete.
7. What doesKirkwoodthink of dog cloning?
A. He disagrees with it.
B. He supports it.
C. He is curious about it.
D. He thinks it unbelievable.
C
In the world of Chinese archaeology(考古学), a sign of a dig's importance is the sight of Zhou Mingsheng at work. A field technician who has worked at archaeological sites all aroundChina. Master Zhou iscredited with the gentlest touch in his profession. Born into a farming family, he is a “national-level craftsman” with a talent for using simple tools to get relics(遗物) that wouldcrumblein other hands, says his current boss, Wang Xu, director of an archaeological site at Shuanghuaishu, a Neolithic(新石器时代的) settlement near the Yellow River in the central province of Henan.
It is not beauty that attracts visitors to Shuanghuaishu. At 5,300 years old, the settlement is the work of a culture too simple to have left behind many buried treasures. The single most precious find, to date, is a finger-length sculpture of a silkworm. Nor is the setting lovely: an area surrounded by deafening insects, between a highway and two power stations. Rather, the site's importance is historical. For since the birth of Chinese archaeology in the 1920s, it has been inseparable from claims thatChinahas the oldest unbroken civilisation on
Earth.
Leading archaeologists say that the site has the right combination of location, age and distinctive cultural elements to be the capital of an early Chinese kingdom. That would make it a bridge betweenChina's written history and the era of the Yellow Emperor, who is said to rule over these central plains almost 5,000 years ago, though many foreign scholars doubt his existence. Chinese media call the site proof ofChina's 5,000 years of history.
Foreigners complain about a lack of written records, Mr. Wang notes. Perhaps they are missing symbols that will one day be understood, for instance in patterned pottery. Outsiders “can't keep using Western standards to apply to Chinese ruins,” he argues.
8. What does the underlined word “crumble” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Break.
B. Start.
C. Wait.
D. Shine.
9. Why does Shuanghuaishu attract visitors?
A. It has appealing scenery.
B. It has various precious treasures.
C. It is of great historical significance.
D. It is easily accessible.
10. What is Mr. Wang's attitude towards foreigners’ view?
A. Unconcern.
B. Disapproving.
C. Supportive.
D. Not mentioned.
11. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Chinese history amazes the world.
B. Chinese archaeology catches on.
C. China follows its tradition.
D.Chinadigs its past.
D
Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (麻省理工学院) have turned spider webs into music——creating an strange soundtrack that could help them better understand how the spiders output their complex creations and even how they communicate.
The MIT team worked with Berlin-based artist Tomas Saraceno to take 2D (two-dimensional) laser (激光) scans of a spider web, which were linked together and made into a mathematical model that could recreate the web in 3Din VR (virtual reality). They also worked with MIT’s music department to create the virtual instrument.
“Even though the web looks really random (随机)，there actually are a lot of inside structures and you can visualize (可视化) them and you can look at them, but it’s really hard to grasp for the human imagination or human brain to understand all these structural details,” said MIT engineering professor Markus Buehler, who presented the work on Monday at a virtual meeting of the American Chemical Society.
Listening to the music while moving through the VR spider web lets you see and hear these structural changes and gives a better idea of how spiders see the world, he told CNN. “Spiders use vibrations (振动) as a way to locate themselves, to communicate with other spiders and so the idea of thinking really like a spider would experience the world was something that was very important to us as spider material scientists,” Buehler said.
Spiders are able to build their webs without shelves or supports, so having a better idea of how they work could lead to the development of advanced new 3D printing techniques. “The reason why I did that is I wanted to be able to get information really from the spider world, which is very weird and mysterious,” Buehler explained. In addition to the scientific value, Buehler said the webs are musically interesting and that you can hear the sounds the spider creates during construction. “It’s unusual and eerie and scary, but finally beautiful.” he described.
12. What have MIT scientists done according to the passage?
A. They have translated spider webs into sounds.
B. They have made a mathematical model to produce webs.
C. They have created a soundtrack to catch spiders.
D. They have known how spiders communicate.
13. What can we know about spider webs from paragraph 3?
A. Their structures are beautiful and clear.
B. Professor Markus Buehler knows them well.
C. The American Chemical Society presents the result.
D. They are complex for people to figure it out.
14. In which field will the study be helpful?
A. virtual reality
B. printing
C. painting
D. film-making
15. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. It tells us that the music created by spiders is scary.
B. It shows how the researchers carry out the experiment.
C. It presents a new and creative way to study spiders.
D. It explains why scientists did the experiment.

On a bright, warm July afternoon, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends. One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday.
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that's a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.
Mac’s heart jumped. He found out his can of hear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac's bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶).
Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he’d be easy caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh.
At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.

考查虚拟语气。

句意：她被建议为所有客人唱一首英文歌曲。

考查同位语从句。

句意：你知道教室里发生什么事了吗？分析句子结构可知，idea后是一个同位语从句，解释说明idea的内容，从句中缺少主语，表示“发生的事情”，应使用what引导，that引导同位语从句时不作任何成分，故将that改为what。

【56题详解】
考查同位语从句。

句意：消息传来，他被重点大学录取了。

分析句子结构可知，“he had been admitted to the key university”是解释说明Word的内容，为同位语从句，且句子完整不缺任何成分，应使用that引导，故在came后加that。

【57题详解】
考查独立主格结构。

句意：那儿是如此潮湿，以至于树很高，一些高达90米。

分析句子结构可知，句中没有连词，所以逗号后是独立主格结构，动词measure与逻辑主语some之间是主谓关系，应使用现在分词，故将measured改为measuring。

【58题详解】
考查冠词。

句意：令他十分高兴的是，狗看见主人的蓝衬衫就在远处。

in the distance是固定搭配，意为“在远处”，故在in后加the。

【59题详解】
考查情态动词的用法。

句意：他们本该午饭时间到达，但是他们的航班延误了。

must have done表示“一定做过某事”，是对过去事情的肯定推测，should have done表示“本应该做某事（而没做）”，是虚拟语气的一种，根据“but their flight was delayed”可知，他们“本该到达而实际上未到”，故将must改为should。

【60题详解】
考查固定搭配。

句意：他觉得一个女孩晚上深夜独自在外面很危险，所以他不容许他的女儿回家太晚。

根据won’t可知，“have +宾语+宾语补足语”结构中宾语补足语应用现在分词，表示“不容许/允许某人做某事”，故将arrive改为arriving
52.略。
