But I, along with 10,000 others, was about to complete the challenge.Most of the people taking part were doing a one-mile race, and 10 races were

12、 planned over the weekend. There seemed to be a mix of open-water enthusiasts alongside complete beginnerswhich is precisely the aim of the swims, to get as many people as possible completing their own challenge. The oldest woman competing was 77, taking part in the two-mile race, alongside a man wh

13、o last year had swum in every one-mile race.I had chosen the third one-mile race of the day. There were over 600 people in my race. We were taken through an acclimatization area, a childrens paddling pool-sized part of the lake where we moved in to feel how cold the water was. “Not too bad” was ever

14、yones thought! Then we headed out towards the middle of the lake.Wed been warned that the first 100 metres would be really rough. However, somewhere near the 750m mark I was still waiting for the calm; it felt more like swimming in the sea than a lake. I tried to focus on my breathing and technique,

15、 and just keep going. As I approached the 400m-to-go mark my lower right leg became painful. I recalled overhearing people talking about how they kept swimming through the pain, so I tried. But it didnt work. I began to feel the entire leg tight and painful. I didnt want to stop, so I bent my right

29、science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences had created two clone macaques(獼猴) named”Zhong Zhong” and “Hua Hua” by nuclear transferring of somatic cells(體細胞)-any cell in the organism other than reproductive cells.Tetra, a monkey born in 1999, is the worlds first cloned monkey, but it was done by usin

30、g a simpler method called embryo splitting(胚胎分割); but it could only generate four cloned offspring at a time and cannot be genetically changed to suit the experimental need.Cloning a monkey using somatic cells has been a world-class challenge because it is a primate(靈長類) that shares its genetic make

31、up, and therefore all of its complexity, with humans.For drug and other lab tests, scientists have to purchase monkeys from all over the world, which is costly and bad for the environment, and produces inaccurate results because each monkey might have different genes.By cloning monkey using somatic

32、cells, we can massively cultivate large numbers of genetically identical offspring in a short amount of time, and we can even change their genes to suit our needs. This can save time, cut down experiment costs, and produce more accurate results, leading to more effective medicine.Sun Qiang, director

33、 of the non-human primate research facility at the institute, said most of the drug trials are currently done on lab mice. However, drugs that work on mice might not work or even have severe side effects on humans because the two species are so different“Monkeys and humans are both primates, so they

34、 are much closely related and testing on monkeys is supposed to be as effective as testing on humans,”he said. This is especially useful in testing drugs for neural(神經(jīng)的) diseases such as Parkinsons disease, metabolic syndrome(代謝綜合癥) and immune system diseases, and tumors, he added.“This achievement

35、will help China lead the world research in the international science projects related to neural mapping of primate brains, he said. However, bio labs from the United States, Japan, and European countries are also very capable, and they will quickly catch up with China after the monkey cloning techno

36、logy is made public, Sun added.“This means we have to innovate continuously and work extra hard this year to stay ahead, he said.1、Which of the following is the most important factor in cloning macaques named Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua?AReproductive cells. BSomatic cellsCNeural mapping. DGenetic makeup

37、2、Why is cloning monkeys so difficult?ABecause it is bad for our environment.BBecause each monkey might have different genes.CBecause monkeys genetic makeup is as complicated as humans.DBecause it is too expensive to work on their genetic makeup.3、What is the main idea of Paragraph 8?AThe cure for n

38、eural diseases.BThe process of cloning monkeys.CThe significance of cloning monkeys.DThe close relations between monkeys and humans.4、What can we infer from this passage?AMore effective medicine will be produced.BDrug trials on lab mice will be abandoned.CChina is the first country to have cloned mo

39、nkeys.DChina will stay ahead of the world in cloning.24（8分） Alvin Irby wears many hats.
