25、 his pet .There is no argument here. But when we asked our readers whether they would clone their beloved animals , the responses were split almost down the middle . Of the 228 readers who answered it ,108 would clone, 111 would not and nine weighed each side without offering an opinion .Clearly, fr

26、om readers response, this is an issue that reaches deeply into both the joy and eventual (最終的)sadness of owning a pet. It speaks, as well, to peoples widely differing expectations over the developing scientific procedure (步驟)ycyMost of the readers who favored the idea strongly believed it would prod

27、uce at least a close copy of the original; many felt the process would actually return an exact copy. Those on the other side, however, held little hope that clone could truly recreate a pet; many simply did not wish to go against the natural law of life and death.Both sides expressed equal love for

28、 their animals. More of them owned “the best dog/cat in the world”. They thought of their pets as their “best friend” or “a member of the family”. They told moving stories of pets heroism, intelligence and selfless devotion. Little wonders the loss is so disturbing-and the cloning so attractive. “Pe

29、ople become very close to their animals, and the loss can be just as hard to bear as when a friend or family member dies,” says Gary Kowalski, author of goodbye, Friend: Healing Wisdom for Anyone Who Has Ever Lost a Pet. “For me, cloning feels like an attempt to turn death awayIts understandable. De

30、ath is always painful. Its difficult to deal with. Its hard to accept.” But would cloning reduce the blow?

33、ple who dislike cloning love their pets more63From what Gary Kowalski says, we can know that he .Ahas never thought about the problem of cloningBthinks it hard to accept the idea of cloning petsCis in favor of the idea of cloning petsDis all against the cloning of petsC Winters short days are more t

34、han cold. For many people, winter depression, the most common type of Seasonal Affective Disorder(SAD), is as much a part of the reason as hats and scarves(圍巾).Winter serious SAD sufferers may need medical treatment. Those feeling a little blue can help themselves by sticking to a healthy lifestyle.

35、 Here are some tips:Pace yourself. Dont expect to do everything you normally can. Set a realistic schedule. Dont listen to negative thinking, like blaming yourself or expecting to fail.Get involved in activities that make you feel good or feel like youve achieved something. For example, play table t

36、ennis or badminton.If you are feeling depressed, you may feel like staying away from friends. Yet this is a time when friends support can be helpful. Call them regularly. Remember, the more we put off calling or visiting a friend, the harder it is to rebuild a friendship.Think clearly about whats wr

37、ong or right. Instead of giving in to vague feelings of sadness, look at your problems objectively. Break down problems into specific issues that you can work on.Regular exercise helps to prevent and ease depression.Eat well. Studies show that a healthy diet can help to maintain(keep) a healthy body

38、 and mind. The vitamins, minerals and micro-nutrients found in a balanced diet may help our bodies to produce feel-good hormones(荷爾蒙).

The young people began to wonder about him , trying to imagine his life. On

44、e of the girls sat beside him and introduced herself. After a long time, slowly and painfully, he began to tell his story.

But if she didnt, if she would take me back, she should let me know. We used to live in the town, Brunswick, and the

47、res a great big oak tree just as you come into the town. I told her if she would take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and if she didnt want me, forgot me, no handkerchief and Id keep going on through.”Soon all the others were in it. When they were 20 miles from Brunswick,

48、the young man took over window seats on the right side, waiting for the approach of the great oak tree. Vingo stopped looking, tightening his face into the ex-cons mask. Then it was 10 miles, and then 5, and the bus became very quiet.Then suddenly all of the young people were up out of their seats,

49、screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances.
