engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.the greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. and to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. but if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. in addition, human life span(寿命) can be prolonged. gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. some families, with the english imperial family being a good example, have hereditary（遗传的） diseases. this means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. in the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. but gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. the scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. in the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. but i believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.46. what does “these two killers” in the second paragraph refer to?a. gene technology and another treatment of the two diseases.b. the two murderers who killed the cloned babyc. the two diseases of cancer and heart disease d. hereditary diseases and cancer47. whats the main idea of the third paragraph?a. how gene technology can be applied in the field of treating hereditary diseases.b. gene technology can be used to clone human babies.c. gene technology can help people to give birth of a baby.d. gene technology can help the english imperial family out48. in what way gene technology can help to treat hereditary diseases?a. using gene technology, people with hereditary diseases can have more living days.b. using gene technology, scientist finds the wrong gene and corrects it.c. using gene technology, human babies can be cloned.d. doctors can cure cancer and heart disease with the help of gene technology.49 what is the main purpose of writing this passage?a. expressing the writers idea that gene technology will benefit people b. telling people the advantages of gene technologyc. telling the readers that gene technology will not benefit people d. explaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanitybimagine that you have to walk through a deadly，burning rain every dayyour only protection is an umbrella，one perfectly designed to keep off the burning raindropscan you just picture how precious that umbrella would be to you? can you imagine the stupidity of damaging the umbrella，perhaps even cutting holes in it? yet, mankind is in a similar situation on a global scaleour planet is bathed in a steady rain of the suns rayswhile most of these rays are beneficial，bringing heat and light to our world，a small percentage are quite deadlythey are called ultra violet-b，or uv-b rays，and if all were to reach earths surface，they would kill everything living therehappily，our planet was designed with an “umbrella” shielding us from these rays，an umbrella called the ozone (臭氧)layerunhappily，mankind is destroying that umbrellaozone occurs naturally in the stratosphere(平流层)，absorbing the dangerous uv-b rays while allowing the needed and safe light to pass throughfurthermore，while ozone is easily broken down by other gases in the stratosphere，it is constantly being created by the suns raysso it is a self repairing shieldquite a design!the problems arise when man starts to pump his own industrial gases into this delicate systemthen ozone is destroyed faster than the suns rays can produce it. in 1974 scientists beganto suspect that cfcs(含氯氟烃)are ozone-destroying gasesyet，these cfcs are everywherethey are used to make all kinds of foamed(泡沫)plastic productsthey are used as coolants(冷冻剂) in air conditioners and refrigerators，and as solvents(溶剂)to clean electronic equipment. recalled one scientist who reported the danger. “there was no moment when i yelled “eureka!(我发现了!)” i just came home one night and told my wife，the work is going very well，but it looks like the end of the world.”50. in the first paragraph，the author intends to a. make a comparison between two similar things b. direct readers to the topic of the passage c. ask readers to think about a commonly overlooked question d. point out the stupidity of mankind51. which of the following is considered to destroy the ozone layer? a. ultraviolet-b b. the stratosphere c. cfcs d. foamed plastic products52. when the author says “quite a design!”，he really means a. the ozone layer is very well designed b. the ozone layer can shield us from harmful rays c. the ozone layer lies in the stratosphere d. the ozone layer can repair itself53. which of the following best describes the feeling of the scientist mentioned in the last paragraph? a. worried b. contradicted c. excited d. frightenedccollege graduation brings both the satisfaction of academic achievement and the expectation of a well-paid job.but for the 6,000 graduates at san jose state this year, theres uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job markets in decades. ryan stewart has a freshly minted(新兴的) degree in religious studies, but no job prospects(前景).“you look at everybodys parents and neighbors, and they are getting laid off and dont have jobs,” said stewart. “then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce its just scary.”when the class of 2003 entered college, the future never looked brighter. but in the four years theyve been here, the world outside has changed dramatically(巨大地).“those were the exciting times, lots of opportunities, exploding offers, students getting top dollar with lot of benefits,” said chery allmen-vinnidge, of the san jose state career center. “times have changed now. its a new market.”chery allmen-vinnidge ought to know. she runs the san jose state career center, a sort of a crossroads between college and the real world. allmen-vinnidge says students who do find jobs after college have done “their homework”. the typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. theyve postured(定位) themselves well during the summer. theyve had several internships（实习.” she said. and theyve majored in one of the few fields that are still hotlike chemical engineering, accounting, or nursing where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. other popular fields (like information systems management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.ryan stewart who had hoped to become a teacher may just end up going back to school. “ id like to teach college some day and that requires more schooling, which would be great in a bad economy.” he said.to some students a degree may not be ticket to instant wealth. for now, they can only hope its value will increase over time.54. what does cheryl allmen-vinnidge mean

college degree.d. experts have put forward detailed plans for a tunnel (隧道) to join taiwan with the chinese mainland. the shortest proposed route would be 126 kilometers-more than twice the length of the english channel tunnel. and the longest proposed route would be 207 kilometers. a recent conference in xiamen, fujian province brought together more than 70 experts. the event was co-sponsored (共同主办) by universities from taiwan and the chinese mainland. fujian is the province where both proposed routes would begin. there is no direct passenger access (通道) between the mainland and taiwan by air or sea at the moment. experts say that it is better to start research sooner rather than later, although there is a lack of government funding（基金）. there are no technical problems to build a taiwan tunnel. but it will require an improved political relationship across the straits. a professor of tsinghua universi
