The old man was really good at fishing and it didnt take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the child was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked, Why dont you want the fish? The child answered, I want the fishing rod(竿)in your hands. The old man asked, Why do you want the rod? It doesnt take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I wont be afraid of not having any more fish to eat. I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong! If she doesnt know how to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod.

DNA is something that everybody has, and it tellsthe body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own. People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named genes in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language. In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell(细胞)to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one word means, we can help save more people from several illnesses. Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when people begin to know more words and find out lots of other information, we might use it in a wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs. Man would have to meet a lot of trouble if DNA technology(技术)wasnt limited(限制)in use.54. When did we first know why we look like other people in our family? A. In 2000. B. In 1953. C. In 1961. D. In 1860.55. What did the two scientists first discover in 1961? A. The map of DNA. B. A new illness. C. A message of DNA. D. The language of DNA.56. What can we do if we understand some words of the language inside the body? A. Make people get new jobs. B. Make medicine for illnesses. C. Make maps of human. D. Make people less attractive.57. What do people think about this work? A. It can cause good or bad results. B. It can cause only good results. C. It can cause good results but wont work. D. It can cause only bad results.第II卷(六大题，共61分)五、词汇检测(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，在答题卡上标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。每空只写一词。58. No one knows when Chinese first grew watermelons.(确切地)59.
