Tuesday to temporarily ban the use of animal cloning for food production while allowing imports of food derived from the offspring(后代) of clones from the United States and elsewhere.The report from the European Commission followed a call by EU lawmakers in July for a total ban on food derived from cloned animals and their traditionally bred offspring，citing ethical concerns over the industrial production of cloned meat.The Commission said a temporary five­year EU ban on cloning for food production was justified on animal welfare grounds，but said banning imports of food from the offspring of clones was unnecessary and would disrupt global trade.“Food from cloned animals is safe.In fact，the scientific opinion is that it cannot be differentiated in any way from food from normally bred animals.The issue is animal welfare，”EU Health and Consumer Commissioner John Dalli told reporters.Food derived from the offspring of clones presents no such animal welfare issues，and banning its sale and import would be impossible because the origin is untraceable，Dalli said.“Such a prohibition would lead to a ban of imports of any food of animal origin(meat，milk and processed products) from third countries allowing the cloning technique，” the report said.“Were not going to regulate for the world，” Dalli added.But animal welfare groups criticized the Commissions decision，saying it had bowed to pressure from third countries.“We do not accept the Commissions position that it would be impossible to enforce a ban that includes the offspring of cloned animals，as (other) meat traceability systems are already in place，”said Sonja Van Tichelen，director of the Eurogroup for Animals. 1From the passage we can infer that the ban is _.Ajustified BwelcomeCcontroversial Dmeaningless答案C解析推理判断题。文章首先介绍了该禁令的内容及产生的背景，最后两段又介绍了动物保护者们对该禁令的异议，由此可以推断，这一禁令是有争议的(controversial)。justified“合乎情理的”；welcome“受欢迎的”；meaningless“没有意义的”。 2Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AThe ban is permanent.BThe imports of food from the offspring of clones are not banned.CAnimal welfare groups support the ban.DThe ban has been put into effect.答案B解析正误判断题。由第一段可知这一禁令是暂时的，且不禁止进口克隆动物的后代制成的食品，该决议目前仍在计划中，因此B项正确，A、D项错误。由倒数第二段可知动物保护者并不支持该禁令，故C项错误。 3Which of the following is the reason for Commissions decision on the ban according to animal welfare groups?AThe origin of food derived from the offspring of clones is untraceable.BFood from cloned animals is safe.CThe issue is for animal welfare.DThe pressure comes from third countries.答案D解析推理判断题。由倒数第二段可知动物保护者们认为欧盟委员会是迫于第三世界的压力才决定实施这一禁令的，故选D项。 4What might be the most suitable title for the passage?AThe plans of the European UnionBA temporary five­year EU banCThe EU proposes a ban on animal cloning for foodDThe danger of food derived from cloned animals答案C解析标题归纳题。本文主要介绍欧盟宣布将就克隆食品提出一项立法建议，故C项最能概括全文。9
