14、ne（克?。﹖he animal and save the endangered species. Thats a move similar to what a Texas A&M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noahs Ark”. Noahs Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos（胚胎）, semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in

15、 liquid nitrogen（氮）. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A&Ms College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.It is estimated that as many as 2,000 species of mammals, birds

16、 and reptiles will become extinct in over 100years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese White rabbit. They are now

17、trying to implant the embryo into a host animal(受體動(dòng)物）.The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete. “The nuclear transfer（核子移植）of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem. ”Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to

18、do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy. It takes a long time and its difficult, but this could begroundbreakingscience if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort, ”adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the project at Texas A&M

19、, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog. “They are trying to do something thats never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noahs Ark. Were both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting

20、 to do. Its a research that is very much needed”.8. The aim of “Noahs Ark” project is to _. A. clone the endangered pandas B. implant an embryo into a host animal C. save endangered animals from dying out D. collect and research into DNA of endangered animals9. According to Professor Kraemer, the ma

21、jor problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of_. A. host animals B. enough money C. qualified researchers D. available panda eggs10. The underlined word “groundbreaking” in Paragraph 6 probably means _. A. unexpected B. essentially new C. experienced D. highly satisfying11. The best title for th

22、e passage may be _. A. Chinas Success in Pandas Cloning B. The First Cloned Panda in the World C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas D. China-the Native Place of Pandas ForeverDSome parts of the garden are for the rest of the world to admire. Others are for you to disappear to when you dont w

23、ant to be found. Of course, thats easy enough to arrange when you have lots of land with space for the kids to run round and cosy garden rooms for the adults to enjoy. But when your garden is on the small side,you might think itsa tall order. Well, youre wrong. To create a secret garden, people tend

24、 to take the routine: surrounding a small garden with high fences and then placing a lawn（草坪）in the middle and borders round the edge. Far from making the most of the area, that just makes it look a lot smaller and more boring. Dividing it up makes much more use of your space and means you can have

25、your practical family area plus a secret garden. When youre searching for the perfect secret site within your existing set-up, consider your present favourite spot. A secret garden needs to be special一a complete contrast to the more practical family parts of the garden. Perhaps you take a folding ch

26、air down to a quiet corner that gets evening sun; maybe you sit and watch the pond or simply slip out to the patio（露臺(tái)）with a glass of wine. Its quite easy to change an existing favourite feature into a secret place. You could top the patio with a pergola（棚架）pole and plant a grapevine for shade, or p

27、osition a bench overlooking the pond and plant bamboos to screen it from the rest of the garden. The areas you create neednt all to be the same size一or even the same style一but if youre planning a major redesign, take your time and work it out on paper before committing time and money. Then when its

28、done, youll really be able to relax and enjoy it.12. What assumption lies behind this passage? A. Grapevine are widely used as shade in gardens. B. Parents need their own space in the garden C. Family members should share everything. D. Gardens are different in size and style.13. The underlined phra

29、se a tall order (in Paragraph 1) probably means A. a difficult task. B. a costly decision. C. an unwise attempt. D. an unfair business.14. Whats the authors solution for a cozy space in a small garden? A. Place a lawn in the middle. B. Build borders around the lawn. C. Surround the garden with high

30、fences. D. Have a separate space within the garden.15Whats the authors purpose in writing the passage? A. To offer tips on a small getaway in the garden. B. To share personal experience in gardening. C. To recommend best plants for small gardens. D. To advertise some new designs of gardens.第二節(jié) 七選五（共
