10、nome Project, a great $ 3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent complete. The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life. But those commu

11、nities and policy makers are also careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.For the last few years, the genetic advances in the fast developing field of biotechnology have provided materials for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern

12、science in unlocking the secrets of human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the population imagination.While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research in the Untied

13、 States, which began in 1990, is unlocking the code of the human body to learn how to defeat fatal diseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes connected with as yet terrible diseases, and making progress toward separating the genes that show

14、a sign of breast cancer or AIDS.Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases.

17、often.C. Her cousin is feeling a lot better today.D. He doesn’t think her cousin has been at home today.20.TextWhen my father was getting ready for work, our (26) was ruled by knocks and words. One (27) on the table meant I am ready for my breakfast. Two knocks on the table (28) I am ready for

18、 my tea. (29) breakfast he said,Boots. The paper was (30) for him over the back of an armchair. Today’s paper was put on the chair for his (31) , and his boots were brought to him, freshly brushed. He read (32) ,at the same time putting on his boots and lacing them (33) . After finishing one b

It came early sometimes, and it had to (37) my father.Overcoat, hat. One of my sisters had already (38) his overcoat. Now she held it (39) for him and guided h

22、o;s already Tuesday.M: Sorry, it’s late. Maybe it won’t arrive until the day after tomorrow.On what day of the week will the magazine arrive().A. Monday.B. Tuesday.C. Wednesday.D. Thursday.22.A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do

23、 nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to good people.Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tidal wave of crime. Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life. It has happened in the area of values. A key ingredient disappearing,

24、 and I think I know what it is: accountability.Accountability isn’t hard to define. It means that every person is responsible for his or her actions and liable for their consequences.Of the many values that hold civilization together-honesty, kindness, and so on-accountability may be the most

25、important of all. Without it, there can be no respect, no trust, no law-and, ultimately, no society.My job as a police officer is to impose accountability on people who rerun, or have never learned, to impose it on themselves. But as every policeman knows, external controls on people’s behavio

26、r are far less effective than internal restraints such as guilt, shame and embarrassment.Fortunately there are still communities-smaller towns, usually-where schools maintain discipline and where parents hold up standards that proclaim: In this family certain things are not tolerated-they simply are

27、 not done!Yet more and more, especially in our larger cities and suburbs, these inner restraints are loosening. Your typical robber has gone. He considers your property his property; he takes what he wants, including your life if you enrage him.The main cause of this break-down is a radical shift in

28、 attitudes. Thirty years ago, if a crime was committed, society was considered the victim. Now, in a shocking reversal, it’s the criminal who is considered victimized: by his underprivileged upbringing, by the school that didn’t teach him to read, by the church that failed to reach him w

29、ith moral guidance, by the parents who didn’t provide a stable home.I don’t believe it. Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose not to engage in criminal activities. If we free the criminal, even partly, from accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where

30、no one accepts responsibility for anything.We in America desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one responsible for it.What the wise man said suggests that ().A. it’s unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evilB. it’s certain th

31、at evil will prevail it good men do nothing about itC. it’s only natural for virtue to defeat evilD. it’s desirable for good men to keep away from evil23.M: Hello, Sue! I’m leaving tomorrow on holiday.W: How nice! Where are you goingM: Italy.W: Tell me more.M: Well, I’m leavi

32、ng at 8 tomorrow morning.W: Are you driving to the airport, or are you taking a coachM: Driving. That’s about an hour. Er, I’m arriving at the airport at 9 o’ clock and taking off at 10 o’clock.W: What are you going to do in Italy Lie on the beach and get nicely suntannedM: I

33、 enjoy sunbathing on the beach. But this holiday is going to be a bit different. It’s more of a cultural holiday. I hope to visit some museums, art galleries, taste a bit of the food and the drink, and experience the lifestyle of Italy.W: Sounds pretty interesting.M: Yeah, I’ve got a who

34、le list of museums and art galleries. And in fact, I will rent a car in Milan so I can drive around.W: That’s a good idea. Renting a car makes it easier to see the city. Well, actually I’m going to have a holiday which is rather different from yours.M: Where are you going thenW: Haven&rs

35、quo;t decided yet. I may go to the beach and stay in a small hotel where I can see the sea. I just want to take it easy, you know.M: I understand. You’ve worked too hard this semester. A bit of rest will do you good.W: That’s true. Oh, Gosh! I’ve got to go now. Have a nice holiday

36、!M: Thanks. You too! Bye.What are they talking about().A. Italian lifestyle.B. Holiday plans.C. Living in Italy.D. Living in foreign countries.24.Why do people smoke One reason is that people become dependent on cigarettes. The substance which people cannot resist in cigarettes is nicotine. When peo

37、ple smoke the nicotine goes directly into the blood stream and makes people feel relaxed. A smoker’s body gets accustomed to the nicotine and if he stops smoking he feels nervous. Many smokers try to stop smoking but because of their dependence on nicotine they feel so uncomfortable that they

38、often find it too hard to stop.Another reason is that people simply enjoy smoking and what it symbolizes. Having a cigarette for many people means taking a break. For some people smoking becomes part of certain social forms, for example, the cigarette after dinner. Many people enjoy smoking because

39、it makes their hands busy.Many people also like the taste of tar in cigarettes. However, it is the tar that causes cancer. While governments and health experts have tried to make people give up smoking entirely, cigarette manufacturers have to keep selling them by producing cigarettes with less tar.

40、 Many people in western countries have welcomed these cigarettes since they find it difficult to stop smoking but want to reduce the risk to their health.Why do so many people become dependent on cigarettes().A. Because they like the taste of tar.B. Because smoking makes them feel relaxed.C. Because

41、 smoking is fun to them.D. Because smoking cures them of cancer.25.The Human Genome Project, a great $ 3 billion, 15-year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent complete.

42、provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging human life. But those communities and policy makers are also careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life.For the last few years, the genetic advances in the fast developing field of biotechnology

43、 have provided materials for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the population imagination.While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in
