语 篇 提 能
Ⅳ.阅读理解
The Human Genome (基因组) Project, a great $3 billion, 15year task aimed at drawing the genetic map of humans, is now more than 90 percent completed. 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 communities and policy makers are also careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the secret of life.
For the last few years, the genetic advances in the fastdeveloping field of biotechnology(生物技术) have provided material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the popular imagination.
While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding(解码) human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research in the United 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 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. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses.
1. Why did the scientists work so hard at mapping the human genome?
A. Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses.
B. Because the human genome's completion can help to get rid of many diseases.
C. Because they wanted to be better known than others.
D. Because the Human Genome Project can provide a lot of chances of work.
答案与解析 B 第一段叙述科学家及医疗界感到兴奋，由于基因争辩供应了机会为人们治病及让人类长寿，因而选B，这是基因争辩的主要目的。A项“基因可以破坏很多疾病”，C项“他们想比别人更有名”，D项“基因争辩可以供应很多工作机会”都不是进行基因争辩的目的。
2．According to the passage, which of the following countries is the most advanced in genetic research?
A. Japan. B. Germany.
C. The United States. D. China.
答案与解析 C 题意为“下列四个国家中哪个国家在基因争辩方面最先进？”短文第三段提到日本、欧洲取得大的进步，而美国则是leading organization，因此选C。
3．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. If the genes can be found, scientists can study many new ways to cure illness.
B. The United States began genetic research early in the 19th century.
C. Many medical companies show great interest in drawing the human genome map.
D. the scientists have made great progress in connecting some genes with the cancers.
答案与解析 B 从文中内容可知A、C、D均与短文相符，唯有B项说法不对，美国在1990年开头人类基因争辩，也就是20世纪90年月初，而不是早在19世纪。
