BHave you seen Jurassic Park?In this film, scientists use DNA kept for tens of millions of years to clone dinosaurs. They find trouble, however, when they realize that the cloned creatures are smarter and more dangerous than expected. That's nothing more than a fiction.But could we really clone endangered animals?To date, the most successful attempt to do so was the cloning of a gaur, a rare ox-likeanimal from southeast Asia. Scientists used a cow to bring the cloned baby gaur, named Noah. Two days after birth, however, Noah died from a common bacterial infection. Other endangered species that may be cloned include the African bongoantelope (羚羊), the Sumatran tiger, the cheetah (猎豹), and the giant panda.Next, could we really clone extinct animals?In theory? Yes. To do this, you need a well-kept source of DNA from the extinct animals such as wool mammoth (毛象), Tasmanian tiger, or even dinosaur, and a closely related species, still living, which could serve as a_surrogate_mother.In reality? Probably not. On the one hand, it's not likely that extinct animals' DNA could survive undamaged for such a long time. Cloning such extinct animals as wool mammoth, Tasmanian tiger, or dinosaur is much more difficult due to the lack of properly well-preserved DNA. On the other hand, for example, a gaur can have a cow as a surrogate mother, definitely not a monkey. But what about an extinct animal as unique as the panda? What species could possibly serve as a surrogate mother?Cloning presents many exciting possibilities. However, even if extinct animals were brought back, they could not survive in today's world. Not only do most extinct animals have no habitat to live in, but the other plants and animals they depended on for food may also be gone as well.语篇解读：本文说明了在克隆灭绝动物的过程中遇到的重重困难与障碍。
即使克隆成功了，其赖以生存的栖息地和食物链也已经被破坏，被克隆出来的动物也无法继续生存下去。
4．It can be learned from the text that ________.A．the gaur is an extinct speciesB．the gaur lives in Asia and is endangeredC．scientists have cloned the African bongo antelopeD．both the cheetah and the giant panda live in Asia解析：选B细节理解题。

Unit 2 Cloning李仕才一、阅读理解AEnjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater. These days, musicians are performing in private homes, at haircutting shops, at airports... even on ferry boats.Musicians like house concerts. At music clubs, they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol. People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O' Hair Salon, Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials. Then, they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space. The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon, near the hairdryers and makeup tables.“T his is our first show at a hair salon，” Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week's performance. Frank said she and band members, Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time “interacting” with the audience.Concerts in people's homes, or small businesses such as O' Hair's, are becoming more popular, musicians say. “There is a more relaxed atmosphere，” said Domenic Cicala, a musician who opened up his O' Hair Salon to concerts. “People really get to know the artists.”At house concerts, people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers. Often, the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.“People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend，” said Matt Hart, with Aubrey Zoli making up the Local Stran gers, a folkrock group based in Seattle. At many such concerts, the musicians do not need microphones. Yet, every word of their songs can be heard.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了现代音乐会在举办场地的选择上更加多样化。

It requires a light source, such as a standard LED bulb, an Internet connection and a photo detector.It was tested this week using a Li-fi-enabled light bulb to transmit data at the speed of 1 Gbps. Laboratory tests have shown theoretical speeds of up to 224 Gpbs. When tested in an office, it allowed workers to access the Internet and in an industrial space，where it provided a smart lighting solution. Chief executive Deepak Solanki said that the technology could reach consumers “within three or four years”．The term Li-fi was first coined by Prof. Haas, who demonstrated the technology at a Ted conference in 2011. His talk, which has now been watched nearly two million times, showed an LED lamp streaming video. Prof. Haas described a future when billions of light bulbs could become wireless hot spots.One of the big advantages of Li-fi is the fact that, unlike Wi-fi, it does not interfere with other radio signals, so could be used on aircraft and in other places where interference is an issue.However, the technology also has its drawbacks－most notably the fact that it cannot be used outdoors in direct sunlight, because that would interfere with its signal. Neither can the technology travel through walls so initial use is likely to be limited to some places.[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文.本文主要是向读者介绍了一种被称作Li-fi的新的传播数据的方式.1．Which of the following will be the best title of this passage?A．The drawbacks of traditional Wi-fiB．The advantages of Li-fiC．Li-fi 100 times faster than Wi-fiD．Li-fi and Wi-fi解析：C[主旨大意题.通读全文内容可判断出，本文主要介绍了一种被称作Li-fi的新的传播数据的方式，它的传播速度比Wi-fi快一百倍.故选C.]2．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Traditional Wi-fi can reach speeds of up to 1 Gbps.B．The new technology has been put into use by consumers.C．Deepak Solanki showed the new technology at a conference in 2011.D．Li-fi can't be used without a light source, an Internet connection or a photo detector.解析：D[细节理解题.根据第二段中的“It requires a light source，such as a standard LED bulb，an Internet connection and a photo detector.”可知，D项所述内容正确.故选D.] 3．This passage may be ________.A．a piece of newsB．a science fictionC．a fashion magazineD．a product brochure解析：A[推理判断题.根据本文内容可判断.本文主要是向读者介绍了一种被称作Li-fi 的新的传播数据的方式.由此可推断出，本文最有可能是一则新闻.]Ⅱ.阅读填句(七选五)(导学号02516344)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.(2018·安徽合肥第二次质量检测)Everybody knows the importance of drinking enough water. As we all know，drinking water benefits your skin，muscles and organs.__1__ The major reason for that is related to human biological needs. When you're a baby，you're 75 percent water. Then，as the years get higher，you get drier. __2__It helps you lose weight, according to a study from the University of Birmingham.The researchers found that drinking 500 ml of water thirty minutes before a meal helped participants lose 10 more pounds than those who did not. __3__All participants were advised to improve their diet and physical activity levels. 84 overweight adults were involved. Among them 41 were told to “preload” with water，while 43 were told to control their water intake before eating. After 12 weeks，the participants instructed to “preload” with water lost 2.87 pounds more than those in the control group on average. In addition, the participants preloading with water before each of their three main meals every day lost 9.48 pounds over the 12 weeks. __4__Dr. Helen Parretti, a lecturer at the University of Birmingham，had this to say of the study: __5__Just drinking 500 ml of water, three times a day, before your main meals may help reduce your weight... and this could be an easy way for weight loss. Furthermore, it can be significant for an individual to lose extra weight, making a potential contribution to public health.A．Another reason to drink water is right here.B．The study began with a weight management consultation.C．The beauty of these findings is that losing weight is simple.D．But not everyone can get access to tap water in some areas.E．It also helps prevent certain diseases and improve your mood.F．In contrast, those preloading once a day or never, lost just 1.76 pounds.G．So kids should drink more water instead of coke to keep healthy.[语篇解读]本文讲述了一个研究发现：三餐前喝水有助于减肥.1．解析：E[根据上句“众所周知，喝水对你的皮肤、肌肉和器官有好处”可知，空处指喝水的另一个好处，故选E项“它还能帮助你预防某些疾病，改善心情”.E项中的It 指代上文中的“drinking water”.]2．解析：A[根据本段开头的“The major reason for that”和下文内容可知，空处讲的是喝水的另一个原因.故选A“饮水的另一原因在这儿”.]3．解析：B[本段讲述研究结果“饭前半小时喝水可以帮助减肥”.空处应选B项“这项研究始于一个体重咨询”引出下文实验的具体过程.]4．解析：F[根据上句“另外，每天三餐前都喝水的实验者12周期间减掉了9.48磅”可知，选F项，与空前一句进行对比，即“相反，那些一天只在一顿饭前喝水或不喝水的人只减掉了1.76磅”.]5．解析：C[根据空前的“had this to say of the study”和上文的实验可知，选C“这些发现的美好之处在于(告诉我们)减肥很简单”.]Ⅲ.语法填空(导学号02516345)(2018·银川检测)From Monday to Friday, most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy 1.________(they).

第一部分选修八Unit 2Ⅰ.阅读理解导学号01831312(2015·北京市朝阳区第一次综合练习)Culture and CuisineThe United States is known for jazz and blue jeans. But travel toParis and ask your average French citizen about American cuisine(烹饪)and he's likely to answer，“McDonalds.”Ask the same thing of anyAmerican citizen on any American street and I'm afraid you'd get the sameanswer, or something close to it.Hamburgers and hotdogs and fries are all fine, but with American malls and other outlets standardizing everything from clothing to food, the sad truth is that American cuisine is becoming more homogeneous—all the same—no matter where you live. True, many Americans are eating more varied foods these days, but these are largely the cuisines of immigrant groups, and they are quite likely to be affected by homogenization of American cuisine.So what exactly is American cuisine? Well, to some extent it is a reflection of our melting pot culture, meaning that Europeans made huge contributions in the form of wheat, dairy products, pork, beef and poultry. But American cuisine also includes products that once were known only to the New World, including potatoes, corn, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and peanuts.The one region of the country where you still find all these things in daily use is the Deep South. The South lost the Civil War, but children of the southerners are winning the battle to preserve and advance their cooking traditions—and in this case one of the few cuisines can truly be called American, which is why we're pleased to have Low Country cuisine in this issue of food creation. That's right, grits and gravy are back in a big way in cities like Charleston and Savannah. Truth is, they never really left, but up until a decade ago Low Country cuisine was more common at home than in restaurants.In fact, a large number of tourists now go to the lower Atlantic region in order to experience this extraordinary cuisine for themselves.

Susan Brownell Anthony was a lady ahead of her time. She fought for women’s rights long before they became a popular issue.Susan was born on February 15, 1820, in Adams，Massachusetts. At that time, women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote.At the age of 15, Susan became a schoolteacher. She taught for 15 years. Then she began organizing women’s groups to promote causes that were important to women. She helped gain better educational rights for women. She helped give married women possession of their earnings.After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the women’s suffrage movement. After years of lecturing, writing, and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote. The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming’s decision. It was not until 1920 that the U．S. Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights.Susan Brownell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86. She was elected to the Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950. She was the first American woman to have a likeness(肖像) of her face on a coin. It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了美国历史上著名的女权运动领袖Susan Brownell Anthony。

Unit 2 CloningⅠ.阅读理解Scientists have found that the risk of getting cancer and heart disease is reduced when we take part in physical activity—and now they’ve found cycling to work is one of the best activities to do this.The study linked using two wheels with a halving of the risk of cancer and heart disease.It also showed that walking had some benefits over sitting on public transport or taking the car.Cycling to work is already popular in many cities across the world.Some authorities have built cycle lanes as well as providing secure places to lock them up.Some companies provide facilities for their employees to get changed and cleaned up when they arrive at work.It all makes good sense—according to people surveyed in this study,regular cycling cut the risk of death from any cause by 41%,the incidence of cancer by 45% and heart disease by 46%.Cycling to work is quicker and cheaper than using public transport.While going to the gym to lose a few pounds takes effort and commitment,cycling has just become part of the work routine.Clare Hyde from Cancer Research UK says,“ This study helps to highlight the potential benefits of building activity into your everyday life.”Of course,any exercise is good for you but it’s thought that cycling is better than walking because the activity is longer and more intense.Dr. Jason Gill,from the University of Glasgow,said,“ You need to get to work every day so if you build cycling into the day,it essentially takes willpower out of consideration.” You don’t need to wear skin-tight clothes,as long as you wear the most important accessory,a helmet.1.The passage mainly focuses on .A.the benefits of cyclingB.the advantages of sportsC.the changes of lifestyleD.the prevention of cancer2.What can we learn from Paragraph two?A.Walking is similar to sitting in a bus.B.Cycling to work has gained popularity.C.Cycling to work causes more spending.D.City governments need more bicycles.3.What is the advantage of cycling to work compared to going to the gym?A.It is longer and more intense.B.It helps to lose more weight.C.It can be part of daily life.D.It is quicker and cheaper.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。
