B

Rome-Doctors and medical groups around the world last weekend reacted with strong opposition to the news that an Italian specialist is on the point of cloning the first human baby．　　

Dr．Severino Antinori, who is the head of a hospital in Rome, has been referred to in an Arab newspaper as claiming that one of his patients is eight weeks pregnant （懷孕的）with a cloned baby．　　

Antinori refused to comment on the reports, but in March 2001 he said he hoped to produce a cloned embryo （卵）for implantation within two years．So far seven different kinds of mammals have already successfully cloned, including sheep, cats and most recently rabbits．　　

Doctors showed their doubt and were strongly opposed although they admit that human cloning would finally come true unless there was a world wide ban on the practice．　　

Professor Rudolf Jaenisch of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said: “I find it astonishing that people do this where the result can be foretold that it will not be a normal baby．It is using humans as guinea pigs．It makes people feel sick．” But Ronald Green, director of the Ethics institute at Darmouth College in the US, said it is unlikely that an eight-week-old pregnancy would lead to a birth．　　

So far all cloned animals have suffered from some different serious disorders, many of them dying soon after their births ．　　

Doctors are opposed to human cloning because they are worried about the welfare of the cloned child if there is one．　　

“There are no benefits of cloned human beings, just harm,”said Dr．Michael Wilks of the UK．

45．What is the doctors’ general attitude to cloning of humans according to the passage?

A．They are against it．                    B．They support it．

C．They welcome it．                          D．They pay no attention to it．

46．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　  A．Doctor Severino Antinori is strongly opposed to cloning human beings．

　  B．Up to now, seven kinds of animals have been cloned, including sheep, cats, humans and rabbits．

　  C．Professor Rudolf Jaenisch is carrying on an experiment on cloning an eight-week-old embryo．

　  D．Ronald Green doubts about the future successful birth of the so-called cloned embryo．

47．Which is the best title for the passage?

　  A．The Success of Cloning Humans           B．The Anger at Cloning Humans

　  C．Failure of Cloning Humans             D．First Cloned Human?

As a foreigner , I often hear the Chinese calling me laowai ” . If I could not speak Chinese or if I had no understanding of Asian customs , I might be angry when I am called a “ laowai ” . But having lived in the Philippines and China’s Taiwan Province teaching English for several years , I have come to China with a different view from most other foreign teachers here . In such situations , I just answer back in standard Chinese : “ Ni zenmo zhidao wo shi waiguoren ?( How do you know I’m a foreigner ? )” When I hear people shout out “ hello ” in a more impolite way and then laugh , I reply in Chinese with “ Ni de yingyu bi wo de hao .(Your English is better than mine .)”
Speaking Chinese is a way of living an easier life in China . As an English teacher at Hubei University in Wuhan , I was once invited by a student to spend the weekend with his family . Because I can speak Chinese quite freely , I was able to talk with my student’s entire family . From my personal experience , I knew that the Chinese have a “ gift ”for making foreigners in China feel right at home . That fun-filled weekend I spent with my student’s family in Caidian , a small suburb of Wuhan , just showed that my idea was right .
It was an experience I will never forget .
Americans have a saying : If you can’t beat them , then join them .The secret to feeling at home with the Chinese people isn’t to try to make them change over to Western ways . The secret is to become one of them . Just go with the flow , or don’t take things too seriously . In this way you will surely feel at home in China .
If you no longer emphasize (強(qiáng)調(diào)) our differences from the Chinese , you will be more willing to concentrate on what “ big noses ” and “ small noses ” have in common .
