Since Scottish scientists reported that they had managed to clone a sheep named Dolly in 1997, research into cloning has grown rapidly. In May l998, scientists in Massachusetts managed to create two identical calves using cloning technology. A mouse has also been cloned successfully. But the debate over cloning humans really started when Chicago physicist Richard Seed made a surprising announcement: We will have managed to clone a human being within the next two years, he told the world.2 Seeds announcement provoked a lot of media attention, most of it negative. In Europe, nineteen nations have already signed an agreement banning human cloning and in the US the President announced: We will be introducing a law to ban all human cloning and many states in the US will have passed anti-cloning laws by the end of the year.3 Many researchers are not so negative about cloning. They are worried that laws banning human cloning will threaten important research. In March, the New England Journal of Medicine called any plan to ban research on cloning humans seriously mistaken. Many researchers also believe that in spite of attempts to ban it, human cloning will have become routine by 2010 because it is impossible to stop the progress of science.4 Is there reason to fear that cloning will lead to a nightmare world? The public has been bombarded with newspaper articles, television shows and films, as well as cartoons. Such information is often misleading, and makes people wonder what on earth the scientists will be doing next.5 Within the next five to ten years scientists will probably have found a way of cloning humans. It could be that pretty soon we will be able to choose the person that we want our child to look like. But how would it feel to be a clone among hundreds, the anti-cloners ask. Pretty cool, answer the pro-cloners.23.Paragraph 1 _24.Paragraph 2 _25.Paragraph 3 _26.Paragraph 4 _A.Strong ReactionsB.Anxiety about the future of CloningC.The Right ChooseD.What Is Cloning?E.Arguments in Favor of CloningF.A Common Sight27.Richard Seed claimed to be allele to clone _28.Richard Seeds announcement received _29.The United States will introduce _30.Within ten years scientists will probably have _A.the nucleus of a cellB.cloned human beingsC.a human being in two yearsD.a law to ban human cloningE.a report on human cloningF.heavy media coverage第4部分：閱讀理解(第3145題，每題3分，共45分) 下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道題。請(qǐng)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，為每道題確定一個(gè)最佳選項(xiàng)。第一篇Walking Robot Carries a PersonThe first walking robot capable of carrying a person unveiled on Friday in Tokyo, Japan. Its creators at Waseda University in Tokyo and the Japanese robotics company Tmsuk hope their two-legged creation will one day enable wheel-chair users to climb up and down stairs and assist the movement of heavy goods over uneven terrain.The battery-powered robot, code-named WL-16, is essentially an aluminum chair mounted on two sets of telescopic poles. The poles are bolted to flat plates which act as feet. WL-6 uses 12 actuators to move forwards, backwards and sideways while carrying an adult weighing up to 60 kilograms(130 pounds). The robot can adjust its posture and walk smoothly even if the person it is carrying shifts in the chair. At present it can only step up or down a few mil1imeters, but the team plans to make it capable of dea1ing with a normal flight of stairs.I believe this bipedal robot, which I prefer to call a two-legged walking chair rather than a wheel-chair, will eventually enable people to go up and down the stairs, said Atsuo Takanishi, from Waseda UniversityWe have had strong robots for some time but usually they have been manipulators, they have not been geared to carrying people around, says Ron Arkin, at the Georgia Institute of Technology and robotics consultant for Sony. But I dont know how safe and how user-friendly WL- 16 is.Tmsuk chief executive Yoichi Takamoto argues that bipedal or multi-legged robots will be more useful than so-called caterpillar models for moving over uneven WL- 16s normal walking stride measures 30 centimeters, but it can stretch its legs to 136 cm apart. The prototype is currently radio-controlled, but the research team plans to equip it with a stick-like controller for the user in future, Takanishi said, it wi1l take at least two years to develop the WL- 16 prototype into a working model.Smaller, ground-hugging robots have been developed to pass across tricky terrain. One maggot-like device uses a magnetic fluid to pulse its way along, while another snake-like robot uses smart software to devise new movement strategies if the landscape takes its toll on any one part. One ball-shaped robot even uses a leap-and-bounce approach to travel over bumpy territory.But none of these are big or strong enough to carry a person too.31.The robot that unveiled on Friday in Tokyo, JapanA.has two legs and is able to carry a person.B.surprised visitors from Waseda University.C.enables wheel-chair users to climb up and down stairs.D.can transport heavy goods over uneven terrain.32.Which of the following about how the robot works is NOT correct?A.The robot is battery-powered.B.The robot has two sets of poles mounted on flat plates.C.The robot uses actuators to move about.D.The robot can cap an adult of up to 60 kilograms.33.What does Ron Arkin think of WL-l6?A.He thinks the robot is user-friendly.B.He thinks it i8 another kind of manipulator.C.He is not sure if the robot can cap people safelyD.He doubts if the robot is strong enough to climb stairs.34.Which of the following description about WL-l6 is true?A.It is a ground-hugging robot.B.It is a caterpillar model.C.It needs time to be developed into a working model.D.It is going to be radio-controlled.35.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A.Different shapes of robots perform different functions.B.Many kinds of robots have been developed to walk over tricky terrain.C.Robots, big or small, perform almost the same function.D.None of the four kinds of robots are strong enough to carry people around.第二篇Night of the Living AntsWhen an ant dies, other ants move the dead insect out of the nest. This behavior is interesting to scientists, who wonder how ants know for sure - and so soon-that another ant is dead.Dong-Hwan Choe, a scientist at the University of California found that Argentine ants have a chemical on the outside of their bodies that signals to other ants, Im dead - take me away.But theres a twist to Choes discovery. These ants are a little bit like zombies. Choe says that the living ants - not just the dead ones - have this death chemical. In other words, while an ant crawls around, perhaps in a picnic or home, its telling other ants that its dead.What keeps ants from hauling away the living dead? Choe found that Argentine ants have two additional chemicals on their bodies, and these tell nearby ants something like, wait -Im not dead yet. So Choes research turned up two sets of chemical signals in ants: one says, Im dead, the other set says, Im not dead yet.Other scientists have tried to figure out how ants know when another ant is dead. If an ant is knocked unconscious, other ants leave it alone until it wakes up. That means ants know that unmoving ants can still be alive.Choe suspects that when an Argentine ant dies, the chemical that says Wait - Im not dead yet quickly goes away. Once that chemical is gone, only the one that says Im dead is left. Its because the dead ant no longer smells like a living ant that it gets carded to the graveyard, not because its body releases new unique chemicals after death, said Choe. When other ants detect the dead chemical without the not dead yet chemical, they haul away the body. This was Choes hypothesis.To test his hypothesis, Choe and his team put different chemicals on Argentine ant pupae. When the scientists used the Im dead chemical, other ants quickly hauled the treated pupae7 away. When the scientists used the Wait - Im not dead yet chemicals, other ants left the treated pupae alone. Choe believes this behavior shows that the not dead yet chemicals override the dead chemical when picked up by adult ants. And that when an ant dies, the not dead yet chemicals fade away. Other nearby ants then detect the remaining dead chemical and remove the body from the nest.36.What is meant by death chemical mentioned in paragraph 3?A.A chemical that contains poison.B.A chemical that causes death.C.A chemical that announces death.D.A chemical that prevents death.37.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the question What keeps ants from hauling away the living dead? (paragraph 4)?A.How do ants know what is to be hauled away from the dead ants?B.What prevents ants from removing the ants that are not yet dead?C.What do ants do to keep themselves away from the dying ants?D.What prevents ants from being carried away after they die.38.What is NOT true about Choes finding?A.When an ant dies, it produces a I am dead signal.B.Living ants have the death chemical on their bodies.C.Ants have two sets of chemicals on theft bodies.D.Ants have the I am not dead chemical on their bodies.39.According to Choes hypothesis,A.an ant still smells like a living when it dies.B.the I am dead chemical leaves the ants body when it dies.C.the I am not dead yet chemical is left when an ant dies.D.the I am not dead yet chemical leaves the ants body when it dies.40.What is the result of the test on Choes hypothesis?A.It proves that his hypothesis is time.B.Not enough evidence has been found to support his hypothesis.C.It shows that his hypothesis is wrong.D.It indicates that his hypothesis needs revising.第三篇How to Interview PeopleInterviewing(采訪)is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease as when you try it for the first time, and youll probably never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he or she may be too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tool for an interview are paper and two or three well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook or paper out of sight until you need it. Theres nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both sort of person youre dealing with, getting him or her to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If its an actor, know what plays he has been in. You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. This fear is almost 100 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to This doesnt necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy itproof that you arent forcing your victim to do something he doesnt really want to.41.The wordreveal(in line 4 of paragraph 1)could best be replaced byA.askB.questionC.giveD.seek42.According to the passage, during an interview notebooks or paper shouldA.never be usedB.be used only when necessaryC.be kept at homeD.be given to the interviewee43.The writer of the passage suggests that before interviewing a person, you shouldA.have a good restB.visit a town officialC.meet an actorD.make preparations44.It can be inferred from paragraph 4 that most men and womenA.are afraid to meet interviewersB.hate being interviewedC.like being interviewedD.fear to speak to outsiders45.According to the passage, if a person being interviewed is too uneasy to give you anything useful, what should yo
