cloning existing people might be ethically(伦理地) acceptable in some cases.one possibility is generating replacement for a dying relative.all such possibilities，however，raise the concern that the clone would be treated as less than a complete individual，because he or she would likely suffer from limitations and expectations based on the familys knowledge of the genetic“twin”those expectations might be false，because human personality is only partly determined by genes.the clone of an extrovert(性格外向的人) could have a quite different way of behavior.clones of athletes，movie stars，or scientists might well choose different careers because of chance events in early life.some people have also pointed out that couples in which one member is infertile (不生育) might choose to make a copy of one or the other partner.but society ought to be concerned that a couple might not treat naturally a child who is a copy of just one of them.because other methods are available for the treatment of all known types of infertility，the traditional choice seems more appropriate.none of the suggested uses of cloning for making copies of existing people is ethically acceptable to my way of thinking，because they are not in the interests of the resulting child.it should go without saying that i am strongly opposed to allowing cloned human embryos to develop so that they can be tissue donors.in spite of this，it seems clear that cloning from cultured (人工培育的) cells will offer important medical opportunities.predictions about new technologies are often wrong；societal attitudes change；unexpected developments occur.time will tell.but biomedical researchers looking into the potential of cloning now have plenty to do.31towards cloning an existing person，what concern does the author show?athe clone created is unlikely to fulfill your expectations.bthe clone created is ethically unacceptable.cthe clone created will be mistreated.dthe clone created will have one defect or another.32from the text we know that a clone will_.abe partly similar in personality to the person it is created frombshare the same characteristics with the person it is created fromcchoose the same career as the person it is created fromdbehave in the same way as the person it is created from33in the authors view，which of the following uses of cloning is reasonable?ato help childless couples to have a baby.bto culture cells for medical purpose.cto develop tissue donors.dto replace a lost relative.34what is the authors attitude towards cloning technology?ait should wait till peoples views change.bit should be condemned.cit was unethical from the very beginning.dit has medical potential for scientists to explore.bmy moms entire life changed in the matter of a few seconds.while driving home late one night，my parents suv was hit from behind by a drunk driver traveling 70 miles per hour.dad was killed instantly.mom was thrown from the suv and people found her on the side of the road.once i saw my mom in the hospital，i knew she had a long road ahead of her.she had crushing injuries to her arm and shoulder，and her elbow was dislocated in three places，leaving it permanently bent.although it took my mom a long time to physically recover from the accident，it was only a short time before my moms positive spirit returned.throughout her journey of recovery，my mother rarely complained.i could see the pain in her eyes during physical therapy，but never heard her question why this had happened to her.in fact，i remember one “role reversal” where we both just had to laugh.mother had lost a lot of weight during her hospital stay，so i bought her some new clothes.i had to dress her at first，but she challenged herself every day.finally，when she was able to get dressed on her own，she looked at me in the mirror and started laughing.while she appreciated the clothes i had bought，she really hated the styles i had chosen for her and couldnt wait to go shopping on her own.i started laughing too；she had struggled for months to put on these clothes that she didnt even like!it reminded me of when i was in kindergarten and my mother made me wear dresses when i just wanted to wear pants.it was a funny role reversal for both of us and i understood how she felt.it took my mom two long years to gain back her strength and limited flexibility.those few years were a traumatic time for our entire family.mom had to overcome many challenges.but she found that strength of will and a sense of humor can get you through the toughest times，even when you dont think you have anything to smile about.35the author presented the story by _.aasking drivers to pay attention while drivingbreminding readers not to drive too fastcexplaining the result of driving after drinkingddescribing the scene of the accident36by saying “a long road ahead of her”，the author meant _.ait would take her mother a long time to recoverbher mother could continue to live for a long timecher mother needed to walk every day to get betterdher mother would pay a lot for the treatment37the example of “role reversal” is used to prove _.aher mother was particular about dressingbher mother behaved like a girl in the kindergartencher mother could keep a positive attitudedher mother had an eye for beautiful clothes38the best title for the passage may be_.aremain clam when death drawing nearbkeep your head up in case of troublecshow real courage in front of dangerdpersist no matter what your troubles areccolorado farmer chris jessen and his wife pam became the newest owners of a “panda cow” when it was born on their farm on new years eve.the calf(小牛)，named ben，was created through genetic engineering.ben was the second panda cow born on jessens farm，but was a surprise，jessen said that he was expecting a black calf.this rare breed of panda cow gets its nickname from its similarity to a panda bear.its white face and black fur around its eyes are extremely pandalike.there is a white belt circle around the middle part of its black body.baby ben has a black mark on its forehead.its thick newborn coat also increases the similarity to a panda.ben is expected to grow four feet tall and weigh close to 1,000 pounds，like its father.the breed is not only extremely rare，but is also only ten years old.the first mini panda cow，precious，was born on april 27,2000，on the happy mountain miniature cattle farm，in covington，washington.it took 44 years of genetic engineering by richard gradwohl，although the farmer claims the new cow was actually an accident.preciouss father was an american beltie bull，named rebel.the mother was a small happy mountain cow，named sarah.gradwohl is the author of the beginners guide to owning your own miniature cattle business guidebook，a 24part article series.these miniatures are actually kept to be pets.jessen plans to sell ben after training.cows are social animals that respond well to humans and some will come when their names are called.panda cows can be petted and are popular with many people.a close relationship can be formed with them，like other more traditional pets.39why was ben a surprise to chris jessen?abecause ben looked different from what he had expected.bbecause ben was born on new years eve.cbecause ben was created through genetic engineering.dbecause ben was the second panda cow born on his farm.40what can we learn from the last two paragraphs?acows cannot understand humans instructions very well.bben will be kept as a pet by jessen.cpanda cows are too big to be petted.dgradwohl knows how to manage miniature cattle business well.41which of the following is a similarity between precious and ben?athey were both created through genetic engineering.bthey are both four feet tall.cthey belong to the same owner.dthey were born in the same state of the usa.42what is the main purpose of this passage?ato introduce a new technology to us.bto show us how the panda cow is made.cto introduce a genetic engineering invention：the panda cow.dto introduce the happy mountain miniature cattle farm to us.d(2012安徽高考)welcome to your future life!you get up in the morning and look into the mirror.your face is firm and younglooking.in 2035，medical technology is better than ever.many people your age could live to be 150，so at 40，youre not old at all.and your parents just had an antiaging(抗衰老的)treatment.now，all three of you look the

the moment it is born，the baby monkey can move around and hold tightly to its mother.during the first few days of its life the baby will approach and hold onto almost any large，warm，and soft object in its environment，particularly if that object also gives it milk.after a week or so，however，the baby monkey begins to avoid newcomers and focuses its attentions on “mother”the real mother or the mothersubstitute(母亲替代物)during the first two weeks of its life warmth is perhaps the most important psychological(心理的) thing that a monkey mother has to give to its baby.the harlows，a couple who are both psychologists，discovered this fact by offering baby monkeys a choice of two types of mothersubstitutesone covered with cloth and one made of bare wire.if the two artificial mothers were both the same temperature，the little monkeys always preferred the cloth mother.however，if the wire model was heated，while the cloth model was cool，for the first two weeks after birth the baby monkeys picked the warm wire mothersubstitutes as their favorites.thereafter they switched and spent most of their time on the more comfortable cloth mother.why is cloth preferable to bare wire? something that the harlows called contact(接触) comfort seems to be the answer，and a most powerful influence it is.baby monkeys spend much of their time rubbing against their mothers skins，putting themselves in as close contact with the parent as they can.whenever the young animal is frightened，disturbed，or annoyed，it typically rushes to its mother and rubs itself against her body.wire doesnt “rub” as well as does soft cloth.prolonged (长时间的)“contact comfort”with a cloth mother appears to give the babies confidence and is much more rewarding to them than is either warmth or milk.according to the harlows，the basic quality of a babys love for its mother is trust.if the baby is put into an unfamiliar playroom without its mother，the baby ignores the toys no matter how interesting they might be.it screams in terror and curls up into a furry little ball.if its cloth mother is now introduced into the playroom，the baby rushes to it and holds onto it for dear life.after a few minutes of contact comfort，it obviously begins to feel more secure.it then climbs down from the mothersubstitute and begins to explore the toys，but often rushes back for a deep embrace(拥抱) as if to make sure that its mother is still there and that all is well.bit by bit its fears of the new environment are gone and it spends more and more time playing with the toys and less and less time holding onto its “mother”47psychologically，what does the baby monkey desire most during the first two weeks of its life?awarmth. bmilk.ccontact. dtrust.48what does the baby monkey probably gain from prolonged “contact comfort”？aattention. bsoftness.cconfidence. dinterest.49it can be inferred that when the baby monkey feels secure，_.ait frequently rushes back for a deep embrace when exploring the toysbit spends more time screaming to get rewardscit is less attracted to the toys though they are interestingdit
