Then he passes t

28、he stick to the next runner. That person runs faster, and then passes the stick to a third runner. Now imagine that the runners do not pass a stick. Instead they pass shiny silk, as well as gold, fruit, and glass. Imagine that the race does not move forward in just one direction. Instead the runners

29、 go back and forth along a road. They trade goods all along this route (路线) and at each end of it. Now imagine that the runners are businessmen. They lead caravans (商队) or lines of camels that carry things to sell. They travel on the ancient Silk Road to earn their living.The Silk Road was a complex

30、 trade network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It stretched from eastern China, across central Asia and the Middle east, to the Mediterranean Sea. Businessmen traveled on the Silk Road from about 200 B.C. to about 1300 A.D. Then sea travel began to offer new routes. Some people cal

31、led the Silk Road the worlds longest highway. However, the Silk Road included many routes-not just one smooth path. The routes ran through mountains and across deserts. They passed through an area that now includes 18 countries. The Silk Road had many dangers. These dangers ranged from hot sun and d

32、eep snow to thieves and wars. Only expert traders could survive.The Silk Road got its name from its most prized goods. People used silk as money. They could pay taxes or buy goods with it. Traders carried more than just silk, though. They had gold, silver, and glass from Europe. People in the Middle

33、 East and Asia wanted these things. Businessmen also took horses from flat, grassy areas in central Asia and brought them to China and other areas. The horses changed the way people farmed and ran their armies. Indian businessmen traded salt and rare, beautiful stones. Chinese merchants traded medic

34、ine and china. They also traded paper, which quickly replaced animal skins in the west. Businessmen carried apples from central Asia to Rome. The Chinese had learned to combine different trees to create new kinds of fruit. They taught this science to others, such as the Romans. The Romans began to g

35、row apples for food. The Silk Road led to worldwide commerce 2,000 years before the World Wide Web.The people along the Silk Road did not share only goods. They also shared beliefs. Monks, priests, and other faith leaders taught their religions to others. The Silk Road created pathways for knowledge

36、, diplomacy, and religion.54.

39、ically-edited babies.Chinese researcher He Jiankui, a research professor at Chinas Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen, said he had edited DNA of twin girls born a few weeks ago. Hes claims were immediately criticized by some scientists as unsafe and unethical. This kind of gen

40、e editing is forbidden in the United States and many other countries. Such changes to a persons DNA can pass to future generations and risk harming other genes.In interviews, He Jiankui defended his work. He said he had performed the gene editing to help protect the babies from future infection of H

41、IV, the virus responsible for the disease AIDS. He said the process had “worked safely” and the twin girls were “as healthy as any other babies.” He told the AP he felt a strong responsibility “not just to make a first, but also to make an example” for future research. “Society will decide what to d

42、o next,” he said.When Hes claims became public, the university made a statement saying his work had “seriously went against academic ethics and standards.” University officials said they had no knowledge of his research and had looked into the case. Chinas National Health Commission was “highly conc

43、erned” about the claims and ordered local health officials “to immediately look into” Hes activity. “We have to be responsible for the peoples health and will act on this according to the law,” the commission said.Scientists discovered in recent years a new way to edit genes that make up a persons D

44、NA throughout the body. The tool, called CRISPR-cas9, makes it possible to change DNA to supply a needed gene or take one away that is causing problems. So far the tool has only been used on adults to treat deadly diseases, and the changes only affected that person. Kiran Musunuru, a scientist from

45、University of Pennsylvania, told the AP that if such an experiment had been carried out on human beings, it could not be “morally or ethically reasonable.” Julian Savulescu, a medical ethics expert at Britains University of Oxford, agreed. “If true, this experiment may cause disasters,” he told Reut

46、ers.However, one well-known geneticist, Harvard Universitys George Church, defended the attempt to edit genes to prevent infections of HIV. He told the AP that since HIV is “a major and growing public health threat” he finds such experiments “valuable.”58. What can we learn from this passage? A. All

49、ds A New Cure For AIDS C. Gene Editing Still Has A Long Way To Go D. China Takes The Lead In Gene EditingDLittle Women is the story of four sisters growing up during the Civil War. Each March (马奇) sister has a different personality. Meg, the oldest, is dignified (端庄) and proper. Jo, next in age, is

50、energetic and wants to be a writer. Beth is shy and quiet and loves music. Amy, the youngest, is spoiled (被宠坏的), a little conceited (自负), and enjoys art. In the following passage, an excerpt(节选)from Chapter 14 Secrets, Jo has a secret surprise to tell her sisters. Laurie is the boy who lives next do

51、or, and Hannah is the Marchs servant. The Spread Eagle is a newspaper in the town. In a few minutes Jo bounced (蹦跳) in, laid herself on the sofa, and pretended to read.“Have you anything interesting there?” asked Meg, with condescension (屈尊).“Nothing but a story, wont amount to much, I guess,” retur

52、ned Jo, carefully keeping the name of the paper out of sight.“Youd better read it aloud. That will amuse us and keep you out of mischief (恶作剧),” said Amy in her most grown-up tone.“Whats the name?” asked Beth, wondering why Jo kept her face behind the sheet.“The Rival Painters.”“That sounds well. Re

53、ad it,” said Meg.With a loud “Hem!” and a long breath, Jo began to read very fast. The girls listened with interest, for the tale was romantic, and somewhat pathetic (哀婉动人), as most of the characters died in the end. “I like that about the splendid picture,” was Amys approving remark, as Jo paused.“

54、I prefer the lovering part. Viola and Angelo are two of our favorite names, isnt that strange?” said Meg, wiping her eyes, for the lovering part was tragical (凄婉).“Who wrote it?” asked Beth, who had caught a glimpse(瞥) of Jos face.The reader suddenly sat up, threw away the paper, displaying a red fa

55、ce, and with a funny mixture of solemnity and excitement replied in a loud voice, “Your sister.”“You?” cried Meg, dropping her work.“Its very good,” said Amy.“I knew it! I knew it! Oh, my Jo, I am so proud!” and Beth ran to hug her sister, wild with joy over this splendid success.Dear me, how excite

56、d they all were, to be sure! How Meg wouldnt believe it till she saw the words. “Miss Josephine March,” actually printed in the paper. How politely Amy criticized (批评) the artistic parts of the story, and offered advice for a sequel (续集), which unfortunately couldnt be carried out, as the hero and heroine we
