But a puzzle, too, his identity would be kept a secret for now, and maybe forever.He is the unknown shooter. The nameless, faceless triggerman who put a bullet in the head of the worlds most notorious（臭名昭著的）terrorist, Bin Laden.Hes likely between the ages of 26 and 33, says Marcinko, founder of the “SEALs Team 6” that many believe led the attack on Bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Hell be old enough to have had time to hurdle the extra training tests required to join the counter-terrorism unit, yet young enough to stand the body-punishing harshness of the job. The shooters a man, its safe to say, because there are no women in the SEALs. And theres a good chance hes white, though the SEALs have stepped up efforts to increase the number of minorities in their ranks, Marcinko and Smith say.He was probably a high school or college athlete, Smith says, a physical specimen who combines strength, speed and wisdom. “They call themselves tactical athletes,” says Smith, who works with many future SEALs in his Heroes of Tomorrow training program in Severna Park. “Its getting very scientific.”Marcinko puts it in more conventional terms: “Hell be ripped,” says the author of the best-selling autobiography “Rogue Warrior.” “Hes got a lot of upper-body strength. Long arms. Thin waist. Flat stomach.”On this point, Greitens departs a bit. “You cant make a lot of physical assumptions,” says the author of “The Heart and the Fist: The Education of a Humanitarian, the Making of a Navy SEAL.” There are SEALs who are 5 feet 4 and SEALs who are 6 feet 5, Greitens says. In his training group, he adds, there were college football boys who couldnt hack it; those who survived were most often men in good shape, but they also had a willingness to show their concerns in favor of the mission.The shooters probably not the crew-cut（平头）, neatly shaven ideal weve come to expect from American fighting forces. “Hes bearded, rough-looking, like a street naughty boy,” Marcinko supposes. “You dont want to stick out.” Marcinko calls it “modified grooming standards.”His hands will be calloused（长老茧）, Smith says, or just rough enough,” as Marcinko puts it. And “hes got frag in him somewhere,” Marcinko says, using the battlefield shorthand for “fragments” of bullets or explosive devices. This will not have been the shooters first adventure. Marcinko estimates that he might have made a dozen or more deployments（部署）, tours when he was likely to have dealt with quite a number of dangerous situations, getting ready any time for explosive devices or bullets.60. Which of the following is most likely to be the title of the passage?A. Who shot Bin Laden? B. What do the SEALS do?C. How can boys be SEALS?D. What SEALS are like?61. From the passage we can know that the writer _. A. knows clearly what the shooter is likeB. doubts whether Bin Laden is dead B. is certain that the shooter is a manD. is not sure of the shooters gender62. We can say for sure according to the passage that _.A. the shooter will eventually be revealed in the PressB. the writer is a person who is curious about the shooterC. the writer is a detective who tries to arrest the shooterD. the shooter is a strong man with a pair of rough hands63. Which of the following are the names of writers mentioned in the passage? . Marcinko . Greitens . Smith . Abbottabad A. B. C. D. CRecently there was a major discovery in the scientific researchthe mapping of all DNA in a human gene（基因）is complete. Couple of years ago, this seems an impossible task for scientist to accomplish. All this progress in science leads us to believe that the day, when the human being will be cloned, is not far away. Human cloning has always been a topic of argument，in terms of morality or religion.Taking a look at why cloning might be beneficial, among many cases, it is arguable that parents who are known to be at risk of passing a genetic limitation to a child could make use of cloning. If the clone was free of genetic limitations. Then the other clone would be as well. The latter could foe inserted in the woman and allowed to ripen to term. Moreover，cloning would enable women, who cant get pregnant, to have children of their own.Cloning humans would also mean that organs could be cloned, so it would be a source of perfect transfer organs. This, surely would be greatly beneficial to millions of unfortunate people around the world that are expected to lose their lives due to failure of single(or more) organ(s）.It is also arguable that a ban on cloning may be unlawful and would rob people of the right to reproduce and limit the freedom of scientists.Arguments against cloning are also on a perfectly practical side. Primarily, I believe that cloning would step in the normal “cycle”of life. There would be a large number of same genes., which reduce the chances of improvement，and, in turn, development-the fundamental reason how living things naturally adapt to the ever-changing environment. Life processes failing to do so might result in untimely disappearance. Furthermore, cloning would make the uniqueness that each one of us possesses disappea. Thus, leading to creation of genetically engineered groups of people for specific purposes and, chances are, that those individuals would be regarded as “objects” rather than people in the society.Scientists havent 100 percent. guaranteed that the first cloned will be normal. Thus this could result in introduction of additional limitations in the human “gene-pool”.Regarding such arguable topics in “black or white” approach seems very innocent to me personally. We should rather try to look at all “shades: of it. I believe that cloning is only legal if its purpose is for cloning organs, not humans. Then we could regard this as for “saving life” instead of “creating life”. I believe cloning humans is morally and socially unacceptable.64.Which of the following is true according to the passage？ A. Genetic limitation will be beneficial for some women B. A large number of genes will prevent us from developing C. Prohibition of cloning might limit the freedom of scientists D. First cloned humans might be normal according to scientists65.Whats the authors opinion on cloning? A. Cloning should be entirely banned B. Cloning should be used in creating life C.
