【題目】閱讀理解

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項 (A 、B 、C D )中,選出最佳選項。

A recent announcement by scientists that they have successfully cloned the first human embryo(胚胎) has caused much debate and has shocked many people around the world. On the one hand, some scientists point out that if you clone an embryo, you can produce valuable tissues(組織) and organs that could be used to save human lives. On the other hand, many people, including some scientists, disagree and fear that if mankind interferes with (干涉) nature in this way, they may be on their way to producing a real-life Frankenstein's monster.

Cloning is producing an exact copy of a plant or an animal using its cells. The first mammal to be cloned successfully from an adult cell was Dolly—the sheep. She was born in 1996 and died in early 2003, at a much younger age than normal. When she was born, many people were angry because they thought cloning would create more diseases in the animal world. However, in general the scientists were praised for their wonderful scientific breakthrough.

The Scottish scientist who created Dolly, Ian Wilmut, is shocked that some scientists are now considering cloning human beings. Although he researches cloning, he has never thought of creating copies of humans. Instead, he thinks the scientists should concentrate on creating new tissues and organs that could eventually be used to cure diseases like cancer. However, some people consider that cloning human embryos with the intention of destroying them shows no respect for human lives.

While cloning human embryos is illegal in many countries, some scientists are already pushing ahead with the research so as to deliver a cloned human baby. Severino Antinori, an Italian doctor, is one of the leaders in this field of research. He has declared that he wants to be the first to clone a human being.

In China, scientists have focused their efforts on cloning animals, as well as stem cells to be used in medical research. China has succeeded in producing clones of cows and goats, and continues to research ways in which cloning can benefit mankind.

【1】Which of the following statements about cloning is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Cloning technology can only be applied to animals.

B. A cloned animal can live longer than a normal one.

C. People all over the world are happy about the birth of Dolly.

D. Cloning can produce valuable tissues and organs to cure human diseases.

【2】The reasons why some people disagree with cloning include the following EXCEPT that .

A. cloning may produce a real-life Frankenstein's monster

B. cloning might create more diseases in the animal world

C. cloning human embryos shows no respect for human lives

D. cloning can't help those who want to clone their dead children

【3】Who is in favor of cloning human beings?

A. Ian Wilmut.

B. Severino Antinori.

C. The author.

D. The Chinese scientists.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】D

【3】B

【解析】本文說明克隆的益處以及人們對此的爭論。

【1】D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句 if you clone an embryo, you can produce valuable tissues(組織) and organs that could be used to save human lives.可知,克隆可以產(chǎn)生有價值的人體組織和器官,繼而拯救某些疾病。

【2】 D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一、二、三段可知,該部分內容談了ABC三項一些人之所以反對克隆人的原因。D項沒有涉及。

【3】B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段可知,Severino Antinori支持克隆人類。

【題目】材料一:

2011118點整,中央電視臺記錄頻道正式開播,信號覆蓋全球,作為中國第一個國家級的專業(yè)紀錄片頻道,也是第一個從開播之始就面向全球采用雙語播出的頻道,它向世人亮出了擁有人文精神的中國形象。央視紀錄頻道在內容編排上進行了詳細的規(guī)劃,主要呈現(xiàn)四大主體內容、六大主題時段的播出特點,以期達到規(guī)模化的播出效應。央視紀錄頻道同時采用國際紀錄片頻道的通行方式,淡化欄目概念,強化大時段編排,以主題化、系列化和播出季的方式,提升自身的影響力和美譽度。

(摘編自楊玉潔等《真實聚焦:2010~2011中國紀錄片頻道運營與紀錄片產(chǎn)業(yè)發(fā)展記錄》)

材料二:

注:群眾構成反映的是收視人群的構成,回答了誰在看該頻道的問題,集中度是目標群眾收視率與總體群眾收視率的比值,表示的是目標群眾相對于總體觀眾的收視集中程度,能夠回答誰更喜歡收看這個頻道的問題;集中度的比值大于100%,表示該類目標群眾的收視傾向高于平均水平。

材料三:

在制播運營模式方面,央視紀錄頻道實行的是頻道化運營模式。央視是紀錄片的主要制作基地。制作出的精品節(jié)目數(shù)量眾多。當然,頻道化運營模式也有其自身的劣勢,劣勢在于頻道可以調動的資源非常有限,其融資渠道、產(chǎn)品設計、人財物資源調度都會受到種種限制。央視紀錄頻道目前正積極推進制播分離模式,節(jié)目制作以社會招標、聯(lián)合制作、購買作為主要方式,并輔以自制精品,為建立較為健全的制作管理模式做好準備。

(摘編自張同道等《2011年國家紀錄片頻道發(fā)展報告(下)》)

材料四:

總部位于美國首都華盛頓的國家地理頻道是一個全球性的付費有線電視網(wǎng)。目前,國家地理頻道已經(jīng)以34種語言轉播至全球166個國家和地區(qū)逾29千萬用戶,作為一個純紀錄片頻道能夠取得如此卓越的成就,除了高質量、高觀賞性的節(jié)目內容之外,與其頻道自身的制播運用模式是分不開的。其制播運營模式如下:有線電視系統(tǒng)是在地方政府的批準下由有線電視系統(tǒng)運營商投資建立的,有線電視系統(tǒng)直接面向訂戶收取費用,有線電視系統(tǒng)運營商是指擁有并運營有線電視系統(tǒng)的企業(yè)實體。有線電視節(jié)目提供商為有線電視系統(tǒng)運營商提供節(jié)目,具體到國家地理頻道而言,美國國家地理電視公司以及其他渠道承擔提供片源的任務,國家地理頻道承擔的是節(jié)目制作等任務,即讓來自國家地理電視公司等渠道的單個的片源變成有機結合的整體,適于在電視上播放;康卡斯特電信公司作為有線電視系統(tǒng)運營商,則承擔把電視信號傳送到千家萬戶的電視機上的技術性播出任務。 (摘編自楚慧萍《多元延伸,有機互動——美國國家地理頻道運營模式初探》)

1下列對材料相關內容的梳理,不正確的一項是(3分)

2下列對材料相關內容的概括和分析,正確的兩項是

A.中央電視臺記錄頻道在內容編輯上進行了認真詳細的規(guī)劃,以期將來能夠呈現(xiàn)出主題化、系列化的節(jié)目播出方式。

B.根據(jù)材料二中性別、年齡、學歷這三項,我們能夠了解到中央電視臺紀錄頻道的觀眾構成和集中度的基本情況。

C2011年,在71個大中城市的觀眾調查中,中央電視電臺紀錄頻道觀眾構成最高的三類人群分別是:男性、45~54歲以及高中學歷。

D.根據(jù)材料二可知,隨著目標觀眾年齡的增加以及學歷的增高,集中度的比值也在不斷地攀升。

E.美國國家地理頻道的制作管理模式較為健全,它在融資渠道、產(chǎn)品設計、人財物資源調度方面不存在受到限制的問題。

3根據(jù)上述材料,概括說明中央電視臺紀錄頻道開播初期與美國國家地理頻道在直播運營模式方面的不同。

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項 (A 、B 、C D )中,選出最佳選項。

My friend Jennie Crossen gave her bone marrow (骨髓) to a 51-year-old woman with leukemia, a woman she has never met.

At the end of March, the Red Cross called back. Six different blood elements were tested; Jennie matched five completely and was about a 3/4 match of the sixth. So she was the best match.

In April, Jennie went for a complete physical exam by one of the doctors who would perform the surgery. The doctor had to make sure that it would be no threat to her. The doctor told her that the surgery would entail having two quarts of bone marrow extracted from her hip bones. Jennie would probably be released the same day the surgery took place and should expect to be sore for a couple of months.

"I didn't think it was that big a deal until I realized I was a match," Jennie said, "There wasn't a question in my head. It didn't seem like something that was going above and beyond."

Jennie was left with two very small scars on her lower back from the surgery and was given medication to help dull the pain. She still felt a great deal of pressure on her lower back. "Being only 21, I feel like I am not old enough to significantly impact someone's life," Jennie said, "It seems strange to me that I could possibly save this woman's life which was being cut short by cancer."

Three weeks after the surgery, Jennie received a call from the Red Cross representative who told her the transplant was successful. "I feel good, and I think it will actually work for her," she said, "So many people say they'd only donate if it was for a family member or close friend. This woman is someone's family and someone's friend. Obviously, no one she knows is a match, and the fact that you'd be able to help a perfect stranger is great."

【1】 Jennie Crossen gave her bone marrow to .

A. a close friend B. a stranger

C. a classmate D. a relative

【2】Before Jennie Crossen knew she was the best match, her feeling could described as ”.

A. frightened B. nervous C. calm D. excited

【3】The underlined word "impact" in Paragraph 5 probably means .

A. take pleasure in the beauty

B. devote all one's life to something

C. end the dangerous practice of something

D. have an important effect on something

【1】What would be the best title of this passage?

A. A Great Woman B. To Save a Stranger

C. My Good Friend D. Jennie's Life Blood

Tips for Cooking on a Tight緊湊的 Schedule

From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time. 【1】 Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some advice on how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.

Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there’s nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials already? 2

Make your time worth it. Make the most of your time and save it later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 3 It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.

4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experiment. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.

Hopefully that gives a good start. 5 And don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A.Try new things.

B.Ability is easily improved.

C. Make three or four instead.

D.Understand your food better.

E.Cooking is a burden for many people.

F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.

G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
