Listen to three volcanologists talking about frightening experience in their work life. The texts model ways to expresss feelings of anxiety and fear.
volcano in New Zealand. I was down in the crater taking measurements. We weren’t expecting any activity from the volcano, so I thought I was safe. Then suddenly, the ground under my feet began to tremble. The trembling got stronger and stronger and after about a minute, a large cloud of steam blew out of the ground. That’s when I realised I was standing on an active volcano. Believe me, I was trembling almost as much as the ground under my feet. I was very worried that the colcano might erupt while Iwas still inside it.

Presenter: Our topic for this week is cloning. To discuss it, we have with usDr Hugh Donaville, head of a company that has already cloned anumber of animals.Hugh Donaville: Good morning.Presenter: Dr Donaville, could you begin with a simple explanation ofcloning?Hugh Donaville: Certainly. Cloned animals are created in a laboratory. They takeall their genes from a single parent.Presenter: So cloned animals come from one parent only.Hugh Donaville: Precisely.Presenter: How successful has cloning been so far?Hugh Donaville: Well, as most people know, in 1997 scientists cloned a sheepcalled Dolly. Since then, scientists have cloned animals such aspigs and cats.Presenter: You make cloning sound easy.Hugh Donaville: Do I? I wish it was. If it was easy, I'd be a very rich man by now.Presenter: So what are the difficulties?Hugh Donaville: Unfortunately, cloned animals get ill and die quite young. Forexample, Dolly the sheep died in 2003. She should have livedlonger.Presenter: Why do they get ill?Hugh Donaville: We've got a few ideas but we don't really understand why yet.Presenter: I see. Now obviously, Dr Donaville, you believe that cloning willbe beneficial to human beings.Hugh Donaville: Yes, I do. If I didn't believe that, I'd be in a different job.Presenter: Many people believe that cloning is wrong and against nature.How do you answer them?Hugh Donaville: I tell them that cloning is a way of helping nature.Presenter: But cloning treats animals and people as things, as products.Hugh Donaville: Nonsense! I don't think that's true at all. I don't think scientiststreated Dolly the sheep as a product. She was a sheep!Presenter: I'm not sure everyone believes that. Also, people are afraid thatscientists will create thousands of copies of the same person.Hugh Donaville: I agree, if that happened, it would be terrible. We need laws toprevent that.Presenter: I'm glad you agree about that. But why do scientists want toclone humans? I can't see any good reasons for this.Hugh Donaville: On the contrary, there are very good reasons. For example, if acouple can't have children, then cloning can give them a child.And if a child dies, we could clone it.Presenter: Create an identical copy, you mean? I think that's a terrible idea.Hugh Donaville: A clone can never be an identical copy of another person. It's notjust your genes that create who you are. It's your family andsociety as well.Presenter: True.Hugh Donaville: To continue, we could clone animals that are becoming extinct.Presenter: Yes, if we were able to do that, it would be wonderful. I can seethere are many arguments both for and against cloning.。

高中英语外研版选修6Module 5 Section Ⅰ Introduction
Among 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 it is a hot topic discussed by people.The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at 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, bringing 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 aswell. In addition, human lifespan (寿命) can be prolonged.Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever 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 gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist 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 human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded 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.Section_ⅠIntroduction_&_Reading_—_Pre-reading[原文呈现][读文清障]Frankenstein's MonsterPart 1The story of FrankensteinFrankenstein is the name of a young scientist from Geneva, in Switzerland. While studying at university①，he discovers the secret of how to create life. Using bones from dead bodies②，he creates a creature③that resembles④ a human being and gives it life⑤. The creature, which is very large and strong⑥，and is also extremely⑦ugly, terrifies⑧anyone who sees it⑨. However, the monster, who has learnt to speak, is intelligent⑩and has human emotions⑪.

（完整版）高中英语新课标选修六Unit5课文原文（可编辑修改word版）Earth Care1.I have the greatest job in the world. I travel to unusual places and work alongside people from all over the world.Sometimes working outdoors, sometimes in an office, sometimes using scientific equipment and sometimes meeting local people and tourists, I am never bored.2. Although my job is occasionally dangerous, I don't mind because danger excites me and makes me feel alive. However, the most important thing about my job is that I help protect ordinary people from one of the most powerful forces on earth - the volcano.3. I was appointed as a volcanologist working for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) twenty years ago.My job is collecting information for a database about Mount Kilauea, which is one of the most active volcanoes in Hawaii.4. Having collected and evaluated the information, I help other scientists to predict where lava from the volcano will flow next and how fast.5. Our work has saved many lives because people in the path of the lava can be warned to leave their houses.6. Unfortunately, we cannot move their homes out of the way, and many houses have been covered with lava or burned to the ground.7. When boiling rock erupts from a volcano and crashes back to earth, it causes less damage than you might imagine.8. This is because no one lives near the top of Mount Kilauea, where the rocks fall.9. The lava that flows slowly like a wave down the mountain causes far more damage because it buries everything in its path under the molten rock.10. However, the eruption itself is really exciting to watch andI shall never forget my first sight of one. It was in the second week after I arrived in Hawaii.11. Having worked hard all day, I went to bed early. I was fast asleep when suddenly my bed began shaking and I heard a strange sound, like a railway train passing my window.12. Having experienced quite a few earthquakes in Hawaii already, I didn't take much notice.13. I was about to go back to sleep when suddenly my bedroom became as bright as day.14. I ran out of the house into the back garden where I could see Mount Kilauea in the distance.15. There had been an eruption from the side of the mountain and red hot lava was fountaining hundreds of metres into the air. It was an absolutely fantastic sight.16. The day after this eruption I was lucky enough to have a much closer look at it. Two other scientists and I were driven up the mountain and dropped as close as possible to the crater that had been formed during the eruption.17. Having earlier collected special clothes from the observatory, we put them on before we went any closer. All three of us looked like spacemen.We had white protective suits that covered our whole body, helmets, big boots and special gloves.18. It was not easy to walk in these suits, but we slowly made our way to the edge of the crater and looked down into the red, boiling centre.19. The other two climbed down into the crater to collectsome lava for later study, but this being my first experience, I stayed at the top and watched them.20. Today, I am just as enthusiastic about my job as the day I first started.21. Having studied volcanoes now for many years, I am still amazed at their beauty as well as their potential to cause great damage.。

Guess which of the arguments
are for cloning and which are against cloainst nature. 2. Cloning will be beneficial to humans. For example, if a couple can’t have children, cloning could help give them a child. 3. Cloned animals get ill and die quite young. 4. People are afraid that scientists will create thousands of copies of the same person. 5. Cloning is dangerous because scientists may create monsters by mistake. 6. We could use cloning to cure illness.
Once they had done plenty of research and were able to create cloned animals easily and cheaply, then I would allow scientists to experiment on humans. But I wouldn’t let them just clone people as they wished; they would only be able to use their knowledge and skills in certain situations--- for example, for people who lost a child and weren’t able to have another.
