　　(2012·郑州三模)

　　With only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone the animal and save the endangered species. That's a move similar to what the Texas A&M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noah's Ark”．

　　Noah's Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos (胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A&M's College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.

　　It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.

　　This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.

　　The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.

　　“The nuclear transfer (核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem，” Kraemer believes.

　　“They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (怀孕). It takes a long time and it's difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works.They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort，” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A&M, the first­ever attempt at cloning a dog.

　　“They are trying to do something that's never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah's Ark. We're both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there's a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It's a research that is very much needed.”

　　1．The aim of “Noah's Ark” project is to ________.

　　A．make efforts to clone the endangered pandas

　　B．save endangered animals from dying out

　　C．collect DNA of endangered animals to study

　　D．transfer the nuclear of one animal to another

　　答案：B　由末段前两句可知，“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是拯救濒临灭绝的物种。

　　2．According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of ________.

　　A．available panda eggs

　　B．host animals

　　C．qualified researchers

　　D．enough money

　　答案：A　根据第六段首句可知，缺少可利用的熊猫卵子是克隆实验中的一个大问题，故选A项。

　　3．The best title of the passage may be ________.

　　A．China's Success in Pandas Cloning

　　B．The First Cloned Panda in the World

　　C．Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas

　　D．China—the Native Place of Pandas Forever

　　答案：C　从文章内容来看，无论是中国还是世界其他国家，克隆熊猫还没有成功，所以排除A、B项；D项内容明显与文章内容不符，故排除。

　　4．From the passage we know that ________.

　　A．Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog

　　B．scientists try to implant a panda's egg into a rabbit

　　C．Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches

　　D．about two thousand species will probably die out in a century

　　答案：D　根据第三段首句可知，约两千种哺乳动物和鸟类将在未来100多年的时间内灭绝，故选D项。

　　B

　　Every year some 15, 000

　　animals－mostly mice－are shipped into the UK for research. Some leading scientists are warning that pressure from animal rights activists is reducing the number of animals being brought into Britain for research. All ferry companies and all but two airlines have stopped importing animals intended for research laboratories.

　　Lord Drayson, who was a minister under the last Labour government, said animal research was “regrettably” necessary and that people would “suffer and die” without it. “If we do want to have access to medicines, and I believe that we do in a survey carried out in the past 10 years more than 87% of the general public have said that they support animal research for medical uses. And so unfortunately we do have to do this.”

　　However, Alistair Currie from People, for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) said researchers should work harder to come up with alternatives to animal testing. “More man 90% of drugs that pass trials in animals fail when they're given to people，”he said. They either prove to be unsafe or simply ineffective.

　　The BBC's Tom Fielden says animal rights campaigners have been imprisoned for taking direct action against laboratories in the past and more recently have focused on creating bad PR (public relations). He says this has included letter­writing and web­based campaigns against transport companies, which appear to have had an effect.

　　But the scientists who depend on the animals for their work have now decided to speak out to try to persuade the government and the transport companies to stand up to the campaigners. Professor Robin Lovell­Badge, a geneticist at the National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), told the BBC it was important that scientists were able to import animals, so they could work together with colleagues abroad.

　　Dominic Wells of the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) said, “The problem is that they can't be put in a suitable transport.”

　　5．Now animal rights campaigners are trying to affect importing animals by ________.

　　A．finding alternatives to animal testing

　　B．creating bad public relations

　　C．taking direct action against labs

　　D．stopping transport animals to UK

　　答案：B　细节题。根据第四段内容“animal rights campaigners...and more recently have focused on creating bad PR (public relations)”可知。

　　6．According to Lord Drayson, importing animals is ________.

　　A．optional

　　B．necessary

　　C．unreasonable

　　D．unconditional

　　答案：B　细节题。根据第二段话“animal research was ‘regrettably’ necessary and that people would ‘suffer and die’ without it”可知。

　　7．Who is against importing animals for research?

　　A．Alistair Currie form PETA.

　　B．Tom Fielden from the BBC.

　　C．Robin Lovell­Badge from the NIMR.

　　D．Dominic Wells from the RVC.

　　答案：A　细节题。根据第三段“Alistair Currie...said

　　researchers should work harder to come up with alternatives to animal testing”可知。

　　8．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

　　A．Activists stopping direct action against imports

　　B．Importing animals contributing to medicine

　　C．Activists' pressure slowing animal imports

　　D．No animal imports, no medical research

　　答案：C　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，动物保护主义者极力反对动物实验，来自他们的压力放慢了动物进口的步伐。
