22、Allan Felix is running a big business — something hard to imagine after she lost her sight in her twenties. When she was 21 years old, she went blind due to certain illness. She recalled, “I hid in my home. I hid in the place; to me, that was the safest place in the world.”

Luckily Felix was not someone who gave up easily. Soon she began to explore the world by using her other senses. She touched and smelled everything she came across. She was soon able to do certain jobs herself, like milking the cows.

In her father’s farm, Allan Felix found a new way forward. She founded a company, bringing in organic wines from many different countries. She traveled from South America to Europe with the help of Hanley (a guide dog named Hanley). At first, Allan Felix resisted the idea of a Seeing Eye dog. But it’s hard to imagine her life or her business without him. She said, “When someone tells me something is organic and I don’t really believe it because I taste something funny on it, I’ll put it in front of Hanley’s face and if he likes the wine, he’ll actually go in and sniff it. If it’s not right, he’ll turn his head away. He goes to the vineyard with me. He scratches around. He makes sure that we see earthworms and butterflies. That’s how we know the soil is actually organic and that there are no chemicals.”

Felix told CBS News she believes the loss of her vision was a gift. She said, “It allowed me to pay attention to what I thought was important and also to be able to teach people the broken hang nail is not a big deal, you know what I mean? All things will round to him who will but wait.”

【1】Why did Allan Felix hide in her home?

A．She was shy and didn’t want to meet strangers.

B．She feared that she would be hurt outside.

C．She disliked being exposed to the sun.

D．She got used to being alone at home.

【2】What do you know about Hanley?

A．It is no more than a guide dog.

B．It likes drinking organic wine.

C．It can distinguish earthworms and butterflies.

D．It helps Allan a lot in her organic wine business.

【3】What does the underlined phrase “the broken hang nail” mean?

A．A nail which is of no use.

B．A task that is not easy to finish.

C．The difficulty you have to deal with.

D．The gift that God gives you.

23、After a couple has had their first child, to their disappointment they became infertile and couldn’t have more children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children, and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have children because they are infertile. Cloning would allow these couples to have children.

It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or not. The following are some of the reasons why cloning should be allowed.

Through cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, and many more.

Cloning organs for organ transplants (移植) is one of the major practical reasons that cloning should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an organ to replace a faulty organ.

Rejuvenation (恢复青春) is also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of cloning. Some scientists believe that injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growing human stem cells, conditions like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and some other ageing disease may be curable. The possibilities are endless and may be left undiscovered if human cloning is forbidden.

【1】The underlined word “infertile” in Para. 1 means “________”.

A．unable to have children

B．too poor to grow crops

C．poor in pregnant knowledge

D．unable to afford to bring up children

【2】How many reasons does the writer give in this passage about why cloning should be allowed?

A．2.

B．3.

C．4.

D．5.

【3】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A．Cloning babies for infertile couples is moral.

B．Through cloning, research work in cells can make great progress.

C．Cloning cells can make some diseases concerning ageing curable.

D．Cloning technology may help improve medical technology.

【4】From the passage, we can know the writer’s attitude toward human cloning is ________.

A．negative

B．supportive

C．uninterested

D．opposing

24、   A month after Hurricane Katrina, I returned home in New Orleans. There lay my house, reduced to waist-high rains, smelly and dirty.

Before the trip, I'd had my car fixed. When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill, she noticed my Louisiana license plate. "You from New Orleans?" she asked. I said I was, "No charge." She said, and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet. The next day I went for a haircut, and the same thing happened.

As my wife was studying in Florida, we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage (抵押贷款) on our ruined house. We looked at many places, but none was satisfactory. We'd began to accept that we'd have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while, when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kemmedy in California. He'd read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for state, the online magazine and wanted to give us ("no conditions attached") a new house across the lake from New Orleans. It sounded a good to her return, but I replied, thinking him for his exceptional generosity, then we to go back. Then the University of Florida offered to let him house to me. While he want to England on his one year, paid leave. The rent was rather reasonable. I mentioned the poet's offer to James Kemdedy, and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months.

Throughout this painful experience, the kindness of strangers has done much to bring back my faith in humanity. It's almost worth losing you wordy possessions to be reminded that people really when given had a channel.

【1】What do we know about James Kemnedy?

A.He was a writer of an online magazine.

B.He offered the author a new house free of charge.

C.He was a poet at the University of Florida.

A.houses were difficult to find in the hurricane stricken area

C.the author's family was in financial difficulty

D.the mortgage on the ruined house was paid off by the bank

【3】Which would be the best title for the text?

A.Terrible Hurricane Katrina but comfortable life on our own.

B.The Importance of Helping Others in reward.

C.Life and study free of rent in Florida, feeling grateful.

D.Hurricane Is Heartless While Strangers Are Kind.
