III. 阅读理解(50)

 

(A)

 

SingaporeYoung people in Singapore are in no hurry to get married, and most graduate women would prefer to remain single if they cannot find a suitable life partner, a survey(调查) has found.

For graduate aged 21 to 30, marriage is the fourth most important goal in the next  five years after a career, healthy bank  balance  and  a  house, said the survey published  on  Monday  by  the Strait Times.

And non-graduates put marriage fifth in their list of priorities(优先考虑的东西), adding education to the same three goals.

The Survey, which looked at the lifestyle patterns of singles and their attitudes to marriage, was conducted by the Social Department Unit(SDU) which was set up in 1984 as an official matchmaking(作媒)service to promote family life.

It surveyed 815 undergraduates and 1,000 working adults, including 204 graduates and 796 non-graduates in the island of 3 million people.

The survey found, however, that even if they did not put wedding plans at the top of their priorities, the majority of young Singaporeans would like to get married.

But more single women than men would remain single, rather than lower their expectations for a partner or rely on professional matchmakers, if they could not find their perfect match on their own, the survey found.

As SDU director Susan Chan said, some women were unwilling to meet new people, preferring to focus on their career and stay with a circle of close friends.

If they give themselves a chance before they become too old, they will meet enough men to judge whether their expectations are just fanciful(理想化的)ideas. Chan told the Strait Times.

The SDU was formed with the concern over the birthrates going down and worries that a growing number of single graduate women were unable to find mates because Singaporean men didn't want bride(新娘)with higher educational qualifications.

1. This is a survey about most graduate women, ______.

    A. who are seeking a high-quality marriage

    B. who will never make plans for their marriage

    C. who would rather remain single than marry

    D. who don't marry until over thirty

2. Which of the statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?

    A. Non-graduates put marriage behind career, bank balance and education.

    B. Graduates aged 21-30 put marriage behind career, bank balance and a house.

    C. Non-graduates often first consider realizing their marriage.

    D. The SDU was formed with the concern over the birthrates going       down.

3. What was the purpose of founding the Social Department Unit?

    A. To study graduates' lifestyle patterns and attitudes to marriage.

    B. To make people's family life better.

    C. To do research into graduates and non-graduates' life and ideas.

    D. To earn money by a matchmaking service.

4. According to the passage, many Singaporean single women would marry on    condition that______.

    A. their lovers could provide a comfortable house

    B. their partners were doctors

    C. it was by themselves that their lovers were found

    D. professional matchmakers could help them

British scientists have done something that many people thought was impossible: they created the first clone of an adult mammal(哺乳动物). The clone, named Dolly, is a seven-month-old sheep, grown from a cell of an adult female sheep.

What is a clone? A clone is a copya genetic copy. Genes are the instructions for life. They tell a cell what to do and how to do it. Genes make each individual plant or animal different and unique. But a clone has the same genes as the original organism(生物体).

Cloning is not new. Plants have been cloned for centuries. New plants are often grown from cutting from another plant. Also, plants like pineapples, strawberries and carnations(康乃馨)are sometimes cloned. One benefit of cloning is that we can make many copies of the best and healthiest plants.

It has been much more difficult to clone animals. Frogs have been cloned, but they died as tadpoles,  never  living long enough to become adult frogs. Mice, sheep and cattle have been cloned from embryos(胚胎). But Dolly is the first healthy clone of an adult mammal. How did they do it?

(1) An unfertilized egg was taken from a sheep.

(2) The egg nucleus(细胞核)was removed.

(3) A cell was taken from the udder(乳房) of a pregnant(怀孕的)sheep. It was starved, so that it stopped growing.

(4) The two cells were combined into then implanted in a third sheep, where it GREw normally.

(5) The clone was born. It was genetically identical to the pregnant sheep in step (3).

This sounds much easier than it actually was. To end up with one clone, the scientists started with 277 udder cells. And they needed in a way to make the egg cell accept a new nucleus. They did that by starving the cell in step (3).

It may soon be possible to clone many types of animals. Will we also be able to clone human organs, or even whole human beings? We have only begun to think about the morality of cloning technology. Maybe the question to ask is not whether we can clone humans, but instead, should we clone humans?

5. Dolly is a sheep______because she is grown from a cell of an adult female sheep.

    A. that has not her father

    B. that has not her mother

    C. that has no parents

    D. that has not any tail

6. Tell which of the following statements is TRUE?

    A. Only plants can be cloned.

    B. Only strawberries and carnations

       can sometimes be cloned.

    C. Animals and plants have quite a long history of cloning.

    D. Genes can tell a cell what to do and how to do it during cloning.

7. From the fourth paragraph we can know that ______.

    A. a tadpole is the early stage of a grown-up frog

    B. a tadpole is a frog without a tail

    C. a tadpole is a kind of animal

    D. a tadpole is a clone of an adult mammal

8. Which is the right order in the process of the clone of Dolly?

   a. Taking an unfertilized egg from an adult female sheep.

   b. Removing the egg's nucleus.

   c. Combining the two cells into one and then implanting it in a third sheep.

   d. Taking a cell from the udder of a pregnant sheep.

    A. a b c d      B. c a b d

    C. a b d c      D. d c b a

In the old days, children were familiar with birth and death as part of life. This is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters who have never been present during the birth of a baby and have never experienced the death of a family member.

Nowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we transfer them to a hospital, where children  are  forbidden  to visit terminally(晚期地) ill patientseven when those patients are their parents. This deprives(剥夺) the dying patient of significant family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experience.

Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed about 500 terminally ill patients in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its likely outcome(后果).

It is important for family members, and doctors and nurses to understand these patients' communication in order to truly understand their needs, fears, and fantasies(幻想). Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly, and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their tremendous need to be informed,  to be  kept  up-to-date  on  their medical condition and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to cope with the approach(接近)of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance prior(……之前)to death.

13. The elders of contemporary(当代的) Americans______.

    A. were often absent when a family member was born or dying

    B. were quite unfamiliar with birth and death

    C. usually witnessed the birth or death of a family member

    D. never experienced the fear of death as part of life

14. Children in America today are denied the chance______.

    A. to learn how to face death

    B. to visit dying patients

    C. to attend to patients

    D. to have right to enter a hospital

15. Five hundred critically ill patients were investigated with the main purpose of______.

    A. observing how they reacted to the crisis of death

    B. helping them and their families overcome the fear of death

    C. finding out their attitudes towards the approach of death

    D. learning how to best help them and their families

16. The need of a dying patient for company shows ______.

    A. his desire for communication with other people

    B. his fear of approaching death

    C. his pessimistic (悲观的) attitude towards his condition

    D. his reluctance(不愿意) to part with his family

17. It may be concluded from the passage that ______.

    A. dying patients are afraid of being told of the approach of death

    B. most doctors and nurses understand what dying patients need

    C. dying patients should be truly informed of their condition

    D. most patients are unable to accept death until it is obviously inevitable

(E)

Besides gathering and storing information, the computer can also solve complicated problems that once took months for people to do. For example, within sixteen hours an electronic brain named CHEOPS (which stands for Chemical Engineering Optimization System) solved a difficult design problem. First, it was fed all the information necessary for designing a chemical plant. After running through 16,000 possible designs, it picked out the plan for the plant that would produce the most chemical at the lowest cost. Then it issued(展现) a printed set of exact specifications(规格). Before CHEOPS solved this problem, a team of engineers having the same information had worked for a year to produce only three designs, none of which was as efficient as the computer's.

At times computers seem almost human. They can read hand printed letters, play chess, compose music, write plays, and even design other computers. Is it any wonder that they are sometimes called thinking machines?

Not even computers can predict the future, but the benefits of computers are becoming more obvious every day.

a. Computers are being used in space travel. Rockets satellites and spaceships are guided by computers.

b. Computers are being used in aviation. They are used in the training of airline pilots. Computers also direct the flight of planes from one city to another, control their air speeds and altitudes(高度), and even land them.

c. Computers are being used in medicine. They are used in analyzing blood samples, in diagnosing(诊断)diseases, and in prescribing medication(开处方). They also have records of the tissue(组织)types of patients waiting for organ transplants(器官移植).

Even though they are taking over some of the tasks that were once accomplished by our own brains, computers are not replacing usat least not yet. Our brain has more than 10 billion cells. A computer has only a few hundred thousand parts. For some time to come, then, we can safely say that our brains are at least 10,000 times more complex than a computer. How we use them is for us, not the computer, to decide.

18. What might the writer write about before the beginning of this passage?

    A. Computers can gather and store information.

    B. Computers cannot solve any complicated problems.

    C. Computers can be used in aviations.

    D. Computers are thinking machines.

19. Which field is not mentioned when the author refers to the benefits of computers?

    A. Medicine.        B. Flight.

    C. Space travel.    D. Agriculture.

20. According to the writer, computers______.

    A. have replaced human beings

    B. are less complex than human brains

    C. will surely replace human brains in the future

    D. can decide how human beings should use computers
