21、In 2006, documents were published by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They suggested that cloned animals and cloned animal products would be allowed into the American food supply.

The FDA has stated that cloned animal products are safe for consumption, and has performed many studies to support this view. In fact, products from cloned animals have already been eaten by some Americans without ill effects. The FDA analyzed the structure(结构)and content of cloned animal products and compared it with that of traditionally reproduced animals, and discovered no statistical difference between the two.

Consumers raised serious concerns about cloned animals. The first is the question of whether or not cloned tissue and animal products are truly safe. The second is that many clones are also genetically modified(转基因的)animals, which the FDA has said are unsafe for human consumption. The third is that consumers want to be able to choose what they put into their bodies.

The first concern about cloned animals is almost unnecessary due to the price of producing a clone. Making a clone needs hard work and is very costly. These clones live spoiled lives because they are very valuable, despite biologists' warning that cloned animals decrease diversity.

The second concern, about genetic modification of cloned animals, is more problematic. It may be very difficult to separate genetically modified animals from normal ones. The purpose of genetically modified cloned animals is unclear, and the FDA hasn't allowed their products onto the market, due to health concerns, but the risk of genetic pollution of healthy animals still exists.

Finally, the matter of choice is a large one. Many animal rights activists are worried about clone rights because cloned or not, the animals still have lives. Other consumers are simply trying to eat healthy foods, and have doubts about the cloned animals. If the FDA does not make labeling (贴标签)laws, people may not be able to make informed choices about their food.

【1】Why did the FDA allow cloned animal products for consumption?

A．They appeal to consumers very much.

B．They differ from traditional animal products.

C．They taste better than normal animal products.

D．They have been proved safe in several aspects.

【2】What do we know about producing clones of animals?

A．It takes much more efforts and money.

B．It provides some new medical benefits.

C．It needs less time than raising animals.

D．It helps increase the diversity of animals.

【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．Cloned animals should be forbidden to enter market.

B．Cloned animals should have the same rights as humans.

C．Laws should be made to protect people's right to choose food.

D．Animal rights activists are strongly against cloned animal products.

【4】What's the text mainly about?

A．Doubts about cloned animals rights.

B．Discussions about how to clone animals.

C．Concerns about animal cloning technology.

D．Worries about cloned animal consumption.

22、   I have three kids and a great husband and I’m enjoying a career that I find challenging and fun．To the outside world，this feels like“Success．”But there is still a voice in my heart asking if this is who I truly am．Only in silence do I hear the self and wonder who that person might be．

So I booked a trip to find out．I travelled，for the first time，without my husband or kids．I went to Iceland with a friend，who shares an appreciation for wilderness and silence．

For six days，we were immersed(沉浸)in wild，raw scenery and real weather—a11 kinds of weather．Climbing a mountain against rain and returning to a tent for a simple meal reminds you how little you actually need．And how strong it feels to be uncomfortable sometimes．

I found silence in Iceland，and time to consider the me outside of career and the me out—side of kids as I shared stories with strangers．

When I stopped talking and just 1istened，I became more generous．I 1earned that choosing to be generous can create more space，more food and more warmth．

But I didn’t really gain any better appreciation of what I want from life or my job．I suspect the anxiety that drove me to seek silence in Iceland was losing sight of my ability to choose gratitude and joy，and to be present in the challenges I set in my career and my family．

I came home to noise，rush and love；with no less confusion on who I want to be． I know the answer isn’t waiting out there on the top of a mountain in Iceland．The answer is in front of me with every step on my own 1ife’s path，and in every choice I make．

【1】Why did the author take a trip to Iceland?

A. To gain a new experience． B. To enjoy family happiness．

C. To better understand herself． D. To appreciate natural beauty．

【2】What do we 1earn about the author’s trip?

A. Exciting． B. Difficult．

C. Relaxing． D. Adventurous．

【3】What change happened to the author?

A. She felt lonelier． B. She felt more anxious．

C. She became more caring． D. She became more confident．

【4】What will the author do in the future?

A. Go back to nature． B. Face reality bravely．

C. Travel to Iceland more often． D. Pay less attention to her feelings．

23、   There are around 100 tribes that live in global isolation, mostly in South America and India.

The Sentinelese(250 people)have lived on one of the Andaman Islands in Eastern India for 60, 000 years. They protect their island by fighting against people from outside. Their language is different from any other known language.

Another Andaman tribe is the Jarawa(300 people). In the past, they were independent and fought against anybody trying to make contact with them. But in 1998, the Indian govemment built a road across their land, and since then, they’ve had more contact with the outside world.

Some Amazon tribes avoid contact because of unhappy memories. The Mashco—Piro left their vegetable gardens after rubber companies killed most of their tribe at the beginning of the 20th century. Those who survived became nomadic(游牧的)and started hunting animals in the forest.

The Awa live in the Amazon forests of Brazil. Out of 350 members, 100 have no contact with the outside world. They left their villages and adopted a nomadic lifestyle around 1850 to escape attacks by Europeans. In the following years, farmers in nearby communities started cutting the trees to expand their farmland. The Awa lost most of their hunting land.

The few Amazon tribes that still exist are fighting to keep their traditional way of life.

Survival, an organization that fights for the rights of tribal people, says that uncontacted tribes are the most vulnerable(弱势的)humans on the planet and that’s why their environment should be unavailable to the rest of us.

After years of pressure, the organization got Brazil’s government to clear invaders from the Awa land. All non-Awa people are leaving so the tribe can get their forest back. But some think it’s impossible for tribes to stay isolated forever in a connected world. Contact will be made one day. So the question is：Whose choice should it be, ours or theirs?

【1】What could be learnt about the Sentinelese from the text?

A．They speak the same language as the Jarawa.

B．They resist contact from the outside world.

C．There are about 350 members in their tribe.

D．They received help from the Indian government.

【2】Why did the Awa adopt a nomadic lifestyle?

A．To avoid being attacked by Europeans.

B．To avoid being robbed by rubber companies.

C．To protect their hunting land.

D．To maintain their traditional way of life.

【3】What is Survival’s view of the tribal people?

A．They should fight for their rights by themselves.

B．We should show them respect and not disturb them.

C．It’s impossible to stay isolated from the outside world.

D．We should help them get used to the connected world.

【4】How does the author describe the isolated tribes?

B．Critically.

C．Indifferently.

D．Objectively.

24、   Bob Geldof was the lead singer and songwriter of an Irish music band named The Boomtown Rats. It was 23 October 1984, and they were not doing very well; they had not had a hit song for a while. Bob was worrying about this when he switched on the BBC news. It was a report on a famine（饥荒） in Ethiopia. Images of hungry children and crying mothers filled the screen. The reporter described the crisis as “the closest thing to hell on earth".

“There I saw something that placed my worries in ghastly new perspective,” Geldof later said in an interview. Deeply upset and saddened by the report, Geldof decided to do something about it using the language of pop music. In just over four weeks after seeing the news report, Geldof had written, with the help of his friend, another band leader Midge Ure, a song that would be a huge bestseller. In addition, he managed to convince about 40 of the most famous performers at that time in Britain and Irish pop music to come to a London xkw music studio to record the song. Bob named this super group Band Aid.

The song was "Do They Know It's Christmas?” By the last day of 1984,3 million copies had 2 been sold in Britain. It went on to sell nearly 12 million worldwide. Some people bought extra copies, and gave them away or donated them back to resell.

Geldof's next step was to organize charity super-concerts called Live Aid in London and Philadelphia, and streamed them live on television, raising an additional US$48 million. He was made a knight by Queen Elizabeth II, recognizing him for his activism and anti-poverty work for Africa.
