After a couple has had their first child, to their disappointment they became infertile and couldn’t have more children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children, and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have children because they are infertile. Cloning would allow these couples to have children.
It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or not. The following are some of the reasons why cloning should be allowed.
Through cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, and many more.
Cloning organs for organ transplants (移植) is one of the major practical reasons that cloning should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an organ to replace a faulty organ.
Rejuvenation (恢复青春) is also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of cloning. Some scientists believe that injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growing human stem cells, conditions like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and some other ageing disease may be curable. The possibilities are endless and may be left undiscovered if human cloning is forbidden.
- The underlined word “infertile” in Para. 1 means “____”.
A. unable to have children B. too poor to grow crops
C. poor in pregnant knowledge D. unable to afford to bring up children - How many reasons does the writer give in this passage about why cloning should be allowed?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5. - Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Cloning babies for infertile couples is moral.
B. Through cloning, research work in cells can make great progress.
C. Cloning cells can make some diseases concerning ageing curable.
D. Cloning technology may help improve medical technology. - From the passage, we can know the writer’s attitude toward human cloning is ____.
A. negative B. supportive C. uninterested D. opposing
C
After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations — major food sources (来源) for the wolf – grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’ s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’ s beavers.
As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems. Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers and red fores have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
- What is the text mainly about?
A. Wildlife research in the United States.
B. Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C. The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park. - What does the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Tested. B. Separated. C. Forced out. D. Tracked down. - What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about？
A. Damage to local ecology. B. A decline in the park’s income.
C. Preservation of vegetation. D. An increase in the variety of animals. - What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project？
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Disapproving. D. Uncaring.
D
By the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.
At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms（海洋微生物）called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration(聚集) of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.
Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate(调节、控制) the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics(特点) of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.
Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects(预测) changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃, it found that multiple(多种的) changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing,” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”
And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.
Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”
- What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?
A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.
B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.
C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.
D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton. - What does the underlined word＂vulnerable＂in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Sensitive. B. Beneficial. C. Significant. D. Unnoticeable. - What can we learn from the passage?
A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.
B. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.
C. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.
D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener. - What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.
B. To analyse the composition(构成) of the ocean food chain.
C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.
D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Little Habits Make a Big Difference
Everything around us is changing at amazing speed, it seems－but some things will always remain the same. 36 .Some of our daily habits have the power to always give us happiness and lead toward success. Here are some little habits that can make a big difference：
37 .Many studies have linked early rising with success. An early morning wake-up carries benefits including better planning and anticipation(预料)of problems, and more time to the things that make you happy.
Happiness comes to those who are curious 38 .As long as you live, there will always be something to learn, and as long as you follow your heart and your passions, you won’t miss out on learning.
Believe in yourself and all that you are 39 .Confidence is the key to success－the thing that lets you look at the past without regret, stay grounded in the present, and prepare for the future without fear.
A day well spent gets you a good night sleep. Enough sleep makes you feel healthier and happier, and it’s more than lifting you up or removing exhaustion(疲惫).Adequate sleep is a key part of your health and inner happiness. 40 .
It doesn’t take a huge effort to make a significant change in your life－using one or two tiny habits may be all you need. Get started today and you’ll soon be experiencing the rewards.
A. That’s why habits are so powerful.
B. The ground work of all happiness is good health.
C. Early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise.
D. The habit of respect means treating everyone with kindness.
E. Nothing will ever make you happier than having faith in yourself.
F. When you rest better, you can live better and achieve more happiness.
G. There is no stage in life when we can’t be learning something valuable.

When I was in college，my mother gave me some wise advice．She said，“Before you get 61 (marry)and live with another person，you need to spend some time living by yourself．You need to get to know yourself．”
So I did 62 (exact)that．For almost two years，I lived by 63 (I)．I found that I love to spend hours looking around in bookstores．I also love to spend an afternoon just walking around the city．
But，of course，not everyone enjoys the same things．A simple pleasure for me would be to spend an hour reading a book in my backyard．However，that same activity would give my husband no pleasure．We are all so 64 (difference)．
Sometimes，we already know 65 makes us happy．However，as life gets 66 (busy)and we get older，we put aside our simple pleasures．For example，I had to give 67 playing the flute(长笛)when I started working and had family responsibility since 68 (play)my flute seemed selfish when no one else in my family could participate．
Our simple pleasures are unique． 69 (activity)that give each of us joy are different．It isn’t always easy to live in a world in which we have to consider other people’s needs and opinions as well as our own，but enjoying simple pleasures is something 70 each of us deserves．

Before I left my hometown to come to studies in England, I was partly terrified, and mostly I was excited. I was traveling all on my own to a place that I don't know any person at all. I couldn't even say the language well, but I wasn't going to let that stop me. Within a few months after arriving in London, I fall in love with the city.
