B

Cloning is suggested as a means of bringing back a relative,usually a child,killed tragically.Some parents can understand that wish,but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child.Here lies the difficulty,for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one.Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interest,would not the parents expect the copy to be the same?It is possible,however,that the copy would develop quite differently.Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with such unnatural expectations?

Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams.Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star,baseball player or scientist,depending on their interest.But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance(遺傳),conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interest as the original.What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science?Or the baseball player turns to acting?Success also depends upon fortune.What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dreams of the parents simply because of bad luck?

Every child should be wanted for itself,as an individual.In making a copy of oneself or some famous person,a parent is deliberately(深思熟慮地)specifying(詳細(xì)說明)the way he or she wishes that child to develop.In recent years,particularly in the U.S.,much importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish.So I suggest there is a greater need to consider the interest of the child and to reject these proposed uses of cloning.

1.What happens to parents in cloning a lost child?

A.Parents expect too much from the copy.

B.Parents may get a quite different copy.

C.Parents are sure to have an identical copy.

D.Parents lose the talents of the lost child.

2.What,in the author’s opinion, affects the success of parents’ dreams?

A.The cloned child’s interest in Einstein.

B.The cloned child’s natural talent.

C.The cloned child’s personality.

D.The efforts of the parents.

3.In the last paragraph,the author implies that .

A.the cloned child is viewed as independent

B.the right of growing in his own way is taken away from the cloned child

C.parents carefully protect the rights of the cloned child

D.parents are eager to wish the cloned child to be somebody.

4.In this passage,the author is mainly concerned about .

A.the future of a cloned child

B.the possibility of cloning people

C.the importance of cloning a lost child

D.the problems of a cloned child

閱讀理解。

One day,I received a call from a colleague.He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem,while the student claimed a perfect score.I was elected as their arbiter(仲裁人).I read the examination problem,“Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(氣壓計(jì)).” The student had answered,“Take the barometer to the top of the building,attach a long rope to it,lower it to the street,and then bring it up and measure the length of the rope.The length of it is the height of the building.”

The student had really answered the question completely,but the answer didn’t confirm his competence in physics.I suggested the student try again.I gave him six minutes to answer the question,warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics.Five minutes later,he said he had many answers and dashed off one,which read “Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof.Drop the barometer,timing its fall with a stopwatch,then use the physical formula(公式)to calculate the height of the building.”

At this point,my colleague had to accept it,and then the student made almost full marks.I couldn’t help asking the student what the other answers were.He listed many others,and then added,“Probably the best one is to take the barometer to the administrator and say to him,‘Sir,here is a fine barometer.If you tell me the height of the building,I will give it to you.’”

Then,I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question.He admitted that he did,but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.

The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world.He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922.

1.The student got a zero at the beginning because .

A.the teacher wasn’t satisfied with him

B.his answer wasn’t complete or correct

C.the teacher didn’t fully understand his answer

D.his answer didn’t show his knowledge of physics

2.We know from the passage that .

A.the student knew the expected answer

B.the administrator told Bohr the height

C.the author preferred Bohr’s last answer

D.the teacher was a very stubborn person

3.We can learn from the passage that .

A.instructors can teach students how to think

B.arbiters can help students to get high scores

C.students should be given more freedom in thinking

D.teachers should make students use physical formulas

4.What was Bohr’s attitude toward his schooling?

A.Optimistic. B.Critical.

C.Approving. D.Pessimistic.
