Have you ever wished you could have a clone of yourself to do homework while you hit the skate park or went out with your friends?
Cloning is the creation of an organism that is an exact genetic copy of another.This means that every single bit of DNA is the same between the two!
You might not believe it，but there are human clones among us right now.They weren’t made in a lab，though: they’re identical twins (同卵双生)，created naturally.
How does one go about making an exact genetic copy of an organism? There are a couple of ways to do this: artificial(人工) embryo twinning and somatic cell nuclear transfer(体细胞核移植)．Artificial embryo twinning is the relatively low­tech version of cloning.Somatic cell nuclear transfer，(SCNT) uses a different approach compared with artificial embryo twinning.This was the method used to create Dolly the sheep.
Let’s say you really want a clone to do your homework.Knowing what you know，do you think this approach would really help you finish your homework...this decade?
A common misconception is that a clone，if created，would magically appear at the same age as the original.This simply isn’t true.You remember that cloning is an alternative way to create an embryo，not a full­grown individual.Therefore，that embryo，once created，must develop exactly the same way as an embryo created by fertilizing an egg cell with a sperm cell (精子)．This will require a surrogate mother and enough time for the cloned embryo to grow and fully develop into an individual.
Are you familiar with the phrase “nature versus nurture”？ Basically，this means that while genetics can help determine personality，environmental influences have a considerable impact on shaping an individual’s physical appearance and personality.For example，do you know any identical twins? They are genetically the same，but do they really look and act exactly alike?
When we hear of cloning successes，we learn about only the few attempts that worked.What we don’t see are the many，many cloning experiments that failed! And even in the successful clones，problems tend to arise later，during the animal’s development to adulthood.
Cloning animals shows us what might happen if we try to clone humans.What have these animals taught us about the risks of cloning?
1．The underlined word “misconception” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”．
A．belief　　　　　　　 B．misunderstanding
C．explanation D．experience
B　解析：词义猜测题。根据上下文可知，人们往往会认为克隆就是马上能有一个一模一样的你出现，这显然是“误解”。
2．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．The risks of cloning.
B．The myths of cloning.
C．The definition of cloning.
D．Some issues in cloning.
D　解析：细节理解题。最后两段说的是A项的内容，倒数第四段说的是B项的内容，第二段说的是C项的内容，只有D项的内容没有提及。
3．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Dolly the sheep was cloned by using SCNT.
B．Identical twins are naturally created human clones.
C．A clone，if created，would magically appear at the same age as the original.
D．Twins are genetically the same，but they don’t really look and act exactly alike.
C　解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第四段第一、二句话“A common misconception is that a clone，if created，would magically appear at the same age as the original.This simply isn’t true.”及之后的论述可知。
4．According to the passage，we cannot have a clone to do our homework now because ________．
A．the technology is not so advanced
B．there are many cloning experiments that failed
C．problems may arise later
D．all of the above
D　解析：细节理解题。综合全文，尤其是倒数第二段可知，A、B、C三项都是现在还不能克隆人的原因。

Margaret, married with two small children, has been working for the last seven years as a night cleaner, cleaning offices in a big building.
She got trained as a nurse, but had to give it up when her elder child became seriously ill.“I would have liked to go back to it, but the shifts(工作班次) are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the children up and off to school.”
So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p．m.till 6 a．m.five nights a week for just ￡ 90, before tax and insurance.“It’s better than it was last year, but I still think that people who work ‘unsocial hours’ should get a bit extra.”
The hours she’s chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husband.However, she doesn’t think that puts any pressure on their relationship.
Her work isn’t physically very hard, but it’s not exactly pleasant, either.I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigs.If they realized people like me have to do it, perhaps they’d be a bit more careful.”
The fact that her working all night doesn’t worry Margaret at all.Unlike some dark buildings at night, the building where she works is fully lit, and the women work in groups of three.“Since I’ve got to be here, I try to enjoy myself—and I usually do, together with the other girls.We all have a good laugh, so the time never drags.”
Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of other people when she tells them what she does for a living.“They think you’re a cleaner because you don’t know how to read and write，”said Margaret.“I used to think what__my__parents__would__say__if__they__knew__what__I’d__been__doing,__but I don’t think that way any more.I don’t dislike the work though I can’t say I’m mad about it.”

(2019·湖北武汉高二上学期期中)Will life in the future be better，worse or the same as now? Futurologists(未来学家)predict that life will probably be very different in 2050.
First of all，it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050.A computer will send the program directly to the television.On TV screen appear holograms，which are pictures with certain height，width and depth.We will be able to see，smell and touch the things that we see on television.
Water has become one of our most serious problems.Agriculture is changing and people are growing more fruit and vegetables to export.Demand for water will increase ten times in 2050.Some futurologists predict that water will be the cause of war if we don’t act now.
In transport，cars will run on new fuels and go very fast.A car will have computers to control its speed and there won’t be any accidents.On the other hand，space planes will take people around the earth in about three hours.People will fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo by space plane in
