Some people are in favour of cloning technology.They think the technology is of great benefit.Firstly,it can be used to produce valuable tissues and organs that could be used to cure diseases like cancer.Secondly,it can help those who are unable to have a baby but want a baby genetically related to themselves.Besides,it can help those who want to clone their dead relatives. However,a few people object to it.They believe cloning shows no respect for human life,and human life would no longer be unique.More seriously,it would create more diseases in the animal world and cause Earth’s population to increase fast. In my opinion,although the technique is beneficial to mankind in many aspects,cloning human beings will be at the cost of the existence of mankind itself. 名师点睛 本文第一段提出话题,第二段说明克隆的优点,第三段是克隆的缺点,第四段是表述作者自己的观点。中间两段按照要点进行陈述,要点齐全,表达清晰明确。文章灵活运用了高级句式,如:宾语从句、定语从句、让步状语从句以及过去分词短语作定语。同时,文中的一些高级词汇也给短文增加了不少亮点,如:in favour of,object to,show respect for,be beneficial to,at the cost of等。另外,一些过渡词,如firstly,secondly,besides,however等的使用,使行文流畅,衔接自然。 Ⅰ.写作必记单词 1.abuse vt.&n.滥用 2.doubtful adj.怀疑的,不肯定的 doubt n.& v.怀疑,不相信 3.seek vt.寻找 4.annual adj.每年的,一年一次的,年度的 5.treat vt.款待 treatment n.治疗;处理;对待 6.postpone vt.推迟,延期 7.trial n.实验 try v.试验;n.尝试 8.prohibit vt.禁止 9.foresee vt.预见 10.underline vt.表明重要性;强调 11.faith n.信心 faithful adj.忠实的,忠诚的 12.weekly adj.每周一次的 week n.周,星期 13.equip vt.使有准备 equipment n.装备;设备 14.fortune n.大笔钱财,巨款 fortunate adj.幸运的 15.concern n.担心;担忧 Ⅱ.阅读识记单词 16.digest vt.消化 17.swap vi.交换 18.tolerate vt.容忍 19.fundamental adj.根本的;基础的 fundamentally adv.根本地;基础地 20.compulsory adj.强制性的;义务的 21.controversial adj.有争议的 22.oppose vt.反对 opposite adj.相反的 23.contradict vt.与(其他事物)相矛盾 contradiction n.矛盾的说法;反驳 24.privileged adj.荣幸的 25.cater vi.满足;迎合 26.entry n.进入;入学 27.rebuild vt.重建 28.unite vt.联合;团结;统一 union n.联盟,协会;工会;联合 29.routine n.常规;惯例 30.temporary adj.临时的;短暂的 temporarily adv.临时地,临时 31.rob vt.使丧失;抢劫 32.decline vi.下降 33.deadline n.截止日期,最后日期 34.submit vt.提交 35.sceptical adj.怀疑的 36.absurd adj.荒谬的;不合理的 37.circumstance n.情形;情况 语境活用 [用所给词的正确形式填空] 1.Ebbesmeyer is most famous for phoning about any doubtful(doubt) objects on the sea.

(2016·全国Ⅱ) Ⅱ.阅读理解 British scientists have done something that many people thought was impossible:they created the first clone of an adult mammal(哺乳动物).The clone,named Dolly,is a sevenmonthold sheep,grown from a cell of an adult female sheep. What is a clone?A clone is a copy—a genetic copy.Genes are the instructions for life.They tell a cell what to do and how to do it.Genes make each individual plant or animal different and unique.But a clone has the same genes as the original organism(生物体). Cloning is not new.Plants have been cloned for centuries.New plants are often grown from cutting from another plant.Also,plants like pineapples,strawberries and carnations (康乃馨) are sometimes cloned.One benefit of cloning is that we can make many copies of the best and healthiest plants. It has been much more difficult to clone animals.Frogs have been cloned,but they died as tadpoles,never living long enough to become adult frogs.Mice,sheep and cattle have been cloned from embryos(胚胎).But Dolly is the first healthy clone of an adult mammal.How did they do it? (1)An unfertilized egg was taken from a sheep. (2)The egg nucleus(细胞核) was removed. (3)A cell was taken from the udder(乳房) of a pregnant(怀孕的) sheep.It was “starved”,so that it stopped growing. (4)The two cells were combined into one and then implanted in a third sheep,where it grew normally. (5)The clone was born.It was genetically identical to the pregnant sheep in Step (3). This sounds much easier than it actually was.To end up with one clone,the scientists started with 277 udder cells.And they needed in a way to make the egg cell accept a new nucleus.They did that by starving the cell in Step (3). It may soon be possible to clone many types of animals.Will we also be able to clone human organs,or even whole human beings?We have only begun to think about the morality of cloning technology.Maybe the question to ask is not whether we can clone humans,but instead,should we clone humans? 11.Dolly is a sheep because she is grown from a cell of an adult female sheep. A.that has no father B.that has no mother C.that has no parents D.that has no tail 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。从文中可以看出,多莉是从一只成年羊的细胞中克隆出来的,所以它没有父母,而是那只羊的一个翻版。 12.Tell which of the following statements is TRUE? A.Only plants can be cloned. B.Only strawberries and carnations can sometimes be cloned. C.Animals and plants have quite a long history of cloning. D.Genes can tell a cell what to do and how to do it during cloning. 答案 D 解析 细节理解题。由第二段中的“Genes are the instructions for life.They tell a cell what to do and how to do it.”可知D项正确。 13.From the fourth paragraph we can know that . A.a tadpole is the early stage of a grownup frog B.a tadpole is a frog without a tail C.a tadpole is a kind of animal D.a tadpole is a clone of an adult mammal 答案 A 解析 推理判断题。由文章第四段第二句可知,人们曾经克隆过青蛙,但在蝌蚪阶段就死了,并没有进入成年青蛙阶段。因此我们可以判断,蝌蚪是青蛙的早期形态,故A项“蝌蚪是青蛙的早期形态”正确。 14.Which of the following statements about Dolly is TRUE according to the passage? A.Dolly is the first clone of an animal. B.Dolly is the first clone of an adult animal. C.Dolly is the first clone of a mammal.
