Our behavior?All of these things make us who we are, but at the center of the matter is the genome (基因组) 一 the genes inside our bodies that may determine everything from our hair colour to our intelligence. But if we could change our genome, what would it mean to us?In an online video posted on Nov 26, He Jiankui, a biological researcher from Southern University of Science and Technology in China, said that he had helped to make the world's first genetically edited babies.These are twin girls, born in November, with genes edited in an attempt to help them fight against possible future infection (感染)with the AIDS virus.He said that he chose to do this because HIV infections are a big problem in China. "I feel such a strong responsibility that ifs not just to make a first, but also to set an example,“ He told the Associated Press(AP).The announcement has caused an international storm. Some believe that success will benefit the families of HIV patients. Considering that HIV is “a major and growing public health threat,,z attempted gene editing for HIV is justifiable, Harvard Medical School genetics professor George Church told AP.However, others think that gene editing technology is still unsafe to attempt.“Gene editing itself is experimental and is still associated with unexpected mutations (突变), causing genetic problems early and later in life, including the development of cancer," Julian Savulescu, a specialist in ethics at the University of Oxford, told BBC News.Others fear that this could open the door to using gene editing technology to make designer babies. It might give the parents the choices to choose everything from their baby's eye color to intelligence.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest 'upgrades9 for their children leading to even greater inequality than we already live with/7 Marcy Darnovsky, director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics, told BBC News.33.

A【解析】【分析】本文是新闻报道,主要报道了 He Jiankui对一对双胞胎进行基因重组的事例,以及 专家对基因重组的看法。【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段 “These are twin girls, born in November, with genes edited in an attempt to help them fight against possible future infection (感染)with the AIDS virus. 这是一 对11月出生的双胞胎女孩,她们的基因经过编辑,试图帮助她们对抗未来可能感染的艾滋 病病毒)和第五段的 “He said that he chose to do this because HIV infections are a big problem in China. UI feel such a strong responsibility that it's not just to make a first, but also to set an example," He told the Associated Press(AP).,/ 他说,他选择这样做是因为艾滋病毒感染在 中国是一个大问题。他对美联社说:“我感到责任重大,不仅要创造第一,还要树立典范。) 可知,He Jiankui让这对宝宝基因重组是因为他试图在抗击艾滋病毒感染的斗争中尽自己的 一份力量。应选B项。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第六段 uConsidering that HIV is “a major and growing public health threat/ attempted gene editing for HIV is justifiable, Harvard Medical School genetics professor George Church toldAP.,z (哈佛医学院遗传学教授乔治丘奇对美联社说,考虑到艾滋病毒是“一 个重大且日益严重的公共卫生威胁,尝试对艾滋病毒进行基因编辑是合理的)可推知,乔 治丘奇认为基因编辑是可以理解的,应选B项。【35题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段"Gene editing itself is experimental and is still associated with unexpected mutations (突变),causing genetic problems early and later in life"(基因编辑本身是实验性的,仍然与意想不到的突变有关,在生活的早期和后期造成基因问题可知,基因 编辑在生活的早期和后期造成基因问题,所以D项有提到。根据倒数第二段"Others fear that this could open the door to using gene editing technology to make designer babies.“ 可知, 另一些人那么担忧,这可能会为使用基因编辑技术制造设计婴儿翻开大门,符合C项。根 据最后一段 “You could find wealthy parents buying the latest 'upgrades' for their children, leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,"(你可以发现富有的父母为他们的 孩子购置最新的“升级版,这导致了比我们现在生活的更大的不平等)可知,基因编辑会 导致贫富差距更明显,符合B项。只有A项错误,应选A项。第二节(共5小题;每题2分,总分值10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。In order to save money on groceries, you can try the following ways which will help you cut $100 out of grocery bill every month without too much effort.36 Convenience lets you save time for other things you need to get done.
