一、阅读理解：共15题每题2分共30分

Sir John, a British scientist who won the Nobel Prize for Medicine, said he had predicted at the time of his frog experiments that the successful cloning of a mammal would happen within 50 years, and that maybe the same answer is appropriate for the step to human cloning.Parents who lose children in accidents may be able to clone "copies" to replace them then. Although any attempt to clone an entire human would raise complex moral issues, the biologist claimed people would soon overcome their concerns if the technique became medically useful.Cloning was regarded with extreme doubts when it was first developed but became widely accepted after the birth of Louise Brown, the first "test tube baby".He said, "When my first frog experiment was done, an American reporter asked how long it will be before these things can be done in mammals or humans.I said, ‘Well, it could be anywhere between 10 years and 100 years —how about 50 years?’ It turned out that it wasn’t far off the mark as far as Dolly was concerned.Maybe the same answer is appropriate." Sir John added that cloning a human being effectively means making an identical(相同的) twin, and that doctors would therefore simply be copying what nature has already produced.

The average vote on allowing parents of deceased children, who are no longer fertile(能生育的), to create another using the mother’s eggs and skin cells from the first child, thinking the technique was safe and effective, is 60 percent in favor.The reason for "no" is usually that the new child would feel they were some sort of a replacement for something.

1．Sir John predicted the human cloning would be a reality in.

A.100 years

B.60 years

C.50 years

D.10 years

2．According to the text, which statement is NOT true?

A.Louise Brown is the first "test tube baby".

B.Human cloning is still a controversial topic.

C.Sir John is positive about the future of human cloning.

D.Human cloning is creating something that didn’t exist before.

3．What does the text mainly talk about?

A.The life of Sir John.

【答案】

1．C

2．D

3．B

【解析】

1．细节理解题。依据文章第一段可知,John预测,未来50年内克隆技术将会成功应用于人类。故选C项。

2．正误判断题。依据第二段中的"after the birth of Louise Brown, the first ‘test tube baby’"可排除A项;文章最后一段说赞成克隆人类的人占60%,也有反对者,说明这个话题仍然存在争议,故排除B项;第二段Sir John的话表明,他对克隆人类很乐观,故排除C项;第二段的最后一句说克隆技术克隆的是已经存在的人,D项错误。

3．主旨大意题。文章讲述了曾获得诺贝尔医学奖的英国科学家John对克隆人类的前景的预测。故选B项。

【备注】诺贝尔医学奖得主——英国科学家John称,那些在事故中失去子女的父母将能在未来50年内借助克隆技术,让他们的子女"重生"。

I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of.In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (观点) by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.

With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer.Here too, reading became useful.Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it.He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world.He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.
