27、ng all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes its a hot topic discussed by people. The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at

28、present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bring

29、ing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span(寿命 )can be prolonged. Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and c

30、lever children. Some families, with the English imperial(皇帝的 )family being a good example, have hereditary(遗传的 )diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But

31、 gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. Scientists just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born. Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture(生产 )human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have suc

32、ceeded in cloning a sheep; therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.

33、 60. What does these two killers in the second paragraph refer to A. Gene technology and another treatment of the two diseases. B. The two murderers who killed the cloned baby. C.

37、ene technology will also do harm to the humanity. 答案： 60-63 CCBA C. Here are two letters from our readers expressing their concern about school assessment (评价 ): (l) Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades (学习成绩 ). Fortunately, most educators realize that students have diff

38、erent interests and abilities. However, grade-based assessment is still very common. Grades often hold back creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to go in for music, drama and sports. Grades are also an unfair measure of a students ability. I do not

39、demand, as some extremists do, that grades should no longer be recorded. However, I do believe that less importance should be placed on. grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional(可选择的 ) at Village High School. Magdalena Smith, President Drama Club (2) Lets face the facts about grades.

40、Grades perform three basic functions( 功能 ). First, grades get students to work at their highest level of competence (能力 ). Second, they act as an encouragement for hard-working students and as a warming to those who are not. Finally, grades are an effective standard by which to measure students achi

41、evement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university. Ive spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired mainly because of their grades. My grades helped me get a part-time job and will help me into university next year. I think grades

44、nd sports 66. According to the letters, which of the following is TRUE about Village High School A. Grades are effective in every way. B. Grades hold back students creativity. . C.

45、out A. The role that grades should play in assessing students. B. The importance of art and music in students life. C. The need to have a standard measure for students success. D. The reasons why grades shouldnt be used to assess students. 答案： 64-67 BDDA D Are some people born clever, and others bor

46、n stupid Or is intelligence developed by our environment and experience Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent, persons intelligence is fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be s

47、upported in a number of ways. It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随意地 ) from the population, it is lik

48、ely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that i

49、ntelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We should soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a
