Module 5 Cloning ‎ (建议用时：35分钟)‎ Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎(2020·郑州第一次质量预测)If you’ve ever had a dog, you know just how deep a connection you can develop with “man’s best friend”. But a dog’s life is much shorter than humans, about 12 to 15 years long, which means every dog owner has to go through the heartbreaking moment when their loving pet passes away.‎ Why not make a clone of that dog then? This is the solution offered by a South Korean company, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation. The company has already successfully cloned at least 400 dogs, mostly for US customers, ever since it pioneered the technique in 2005. Now, Sooam Biotech has introduced its business to UK dog owners as well, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.‎ To clone a dog, researchers first need to take a skin cell from a living dog or one that has just died. Meanwhile, another dog is selected to supply an egg. Researchers then replace the DNA in the egg with that from the skin cell and implant the egg into the womb(子宫) of a female dog. The egg grows into a puppy over the following two months.‎ The whole process takes a very short time, but it comes at a shockingly high price—around ￡ 63，000. But if you can’t afford it now, you can also save the cell in a laboratory and access it at a later date.‎ However, magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect copy of the original one. Just like identical twins of humans, they share the exactly same DNA but there will still be small differences between them. “The spots on a Dalmatian(斑点狗) clone will be different, for example，” Insung Hwang, head of Sooam Biotech, told The Guardian.‎ Dog owners will also have to accept the fact that personality is not “cloneable”. Apart from genes, personality is also determined by upbringing and environment, which are both random elements that cloning technologies simply cannot overcome, Professor Tom Kirkwood at Newcastle University, UK, told The Telegraph.‎ Perhaps bringing our dogs back by cloning is not the best way to remember them 8‎ ‎ after all. Kirkwood, a dog owner himself, pointed out, “An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了克隆狗技术。‎ ‎1．What service does Sooam Biotech Research Foundation offer?‎ A．Making copies of pet dogs.‎ B．Giving pet dogs identical twins.‎ C．Helping dogs give birth to more puppies.‎ D．Helping dog owners love their dogs more.‎ A　解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Now, Sooam Biotech has introduced its business to UK dog owners as well, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.”可知，这家公司所提供的服务就是克隆已逝的宠物狗，故选A。‎ ‎2．Which order is correct in the dog cloning process?‎ a．An egg is taken from another dog.‎ b．A skin cell is taken from the pet dog.‎ c．The egg grows into a puppy in two months.‎ d．The egg is placed in the womb of a female dog.‎ e．The DNA in the egg is replaced by the DNA from the skin cell.‎ A．a→d→b→e→c. B．a→e→b→d→c.‎ C．b→a→d→e→c. D．b→a→e→d→c.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据对第三段的整体理解可知，实验的第一步是从狗身上提取皮肤细胞，另一只被选择的狗提供一个卵子，将卵子中的DNA替换成皮肤细胞中的DNA之后，将卵子植入一只母狗的子宫，最后卵子在接下来的两个月中生长为一只小狗，故选D。‎ ‎3．What can we learn about dog cloning from the passage?‎ A．It has not been put into practice until recently.‎ B．It is very popular among US and UK pet owners.‎ C．It might not give the owners an exactly same dog.‎ D．It is very expensive and usually takes half a year to complete.‎ C　解析：细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“However, magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect copy of the original one.”可知，克隆狗和原来的狗可能并非完全一样，故选 C。‎ ‎4．What does Kirkwood think of dog cloning?‎ A．He disagrees with it.‎ B．He supports it.‎ C．He is curious about it.‎ 8‎ D．He thinks it unbelievable.‎ A　解析：观点态度题。根据最后一段Kirkwood说的话“An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”可知，他认为人类和宠物狗之间的关系的一个重要方面是要接受失去它们的痛苦。由此可推知，Kirkwood并不赞成克隆狗，故选A。‎ B ‎(2020·石家庄重点高中摸底)Many Canadians are aware that problems with the nation’s health care system have resulted in a lack of hospital beds and medical equipment, overcrowded emergency rooms, long waiting lists, and not enough family doctors.‎ Over the last 10 years, the number of medical students choosing the family practice as their lifelong career has been dropping at a surprising rate. When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite(援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice. As in other kinds of work, young doctors today want a balance between their professional and personal lives.‎ In British Columbia(BC) this problem is made worse because the province produces fewer medical graduates for each person than any other province in Canada. The provincial government has committed itself to doubling the number of medical student graduates. This strategy doesn’t come close to giving us the new doctors needed each year in BC to replace those who are retiring, moving out of the province, reducing their hours of practice, or dying.‎ The primary care system is showing its cracks. Ten years ago, 2，030 of BC’s family doctors were providing obstetrical(产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service. Although delivering babies is a “good news” area of medicine, the hours are long, but the reward for bringing new life into the world is modest. It’s no surprise, then, that many of BC’s family doctors are no longer taking on new patients. In 1999, there were 1，420 family doctors accepting new patients—in 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.‎ The foundation of primary care needs to be strengthened. The Working Agreement between the doctors and the government includes a series of primary care renewal projects designed to make the family practice more attractive to medical graduates, improve upon working conditions, and entice family doctors from outside BC to start their business here. Yet still more needs to be done.‎ 8‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了加拿大家庭医生严重缺乏的问题。‎ ‎5．What makes medical students unwilling to be family physicians?‎ A．The student debt and long working hours.‎ B．Long term of study at a medical school.‎ C．A limited number of places in the medical school.‎ D．An increasing number of patients and long waiting lists for specialists.‎ A　解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“When asked why they lack interest in family medicine, the students cite(援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor who is managing the family practice.”可知，学生债务负担和工作时间长成为阻碍医科学生选择成为家庭医生的两大障碍，故选A。‎ ‎6．What does the text say about family doctors in BC?‎ A．They are no longer needed.‎ B．They are too few in number.‎ C．They will soon become abundant.‎ D．They are rapidly leaving the province.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句“Ten years ago, 2，030 of BC’s family doctors were providing obstetrical(产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable service.”，并结合本段最后一句“In 1999, there were 1，420 family doctors accepting new patients—in 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.”可知，在BC，家庭医生的数量在急剧下降，缺口很大，故选B。‎ ‎7．Which can replace the underlined word “entice” in the last paragraph?‎ A．Forbid. B．Hire.‎ C．Remind. D．Attract.‎ D　解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段第二句中的关键词“attractive”和“improve”可推知，画线词在此处的含义与D项“吸引”相近，故选D。‎ ‎8．What is the primary purpose of the text?‎ A．To show sympathy for family doctors.‎ B．To inspire young people to be family doctors.‎ C．To stress the urgent need of more family doctors.‎ D．To tell the disadvantages of being family doctors.‎ C　解析：写作意图题。根据第一段的点题，并结合全文的内容可推知，本文主要介绍了加拿大家庭医生严重缺乏的问题，故选C。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎(2020·安徽省示范高中模拟)I first discovered Café Gratitude several months ago.‎ 8‎ ‎ My friend Dr. Heather invited me to __1__ her for lunch.
