26、 unknown in ancient times. (The condition was named by the Greeks from their word for crab, presumably because of its clawing, crablike growth). The incidence of cancer has risen dramatically in recent decades, primarily【C1 】_cigarette smoking, and cancer is probably our most dreaded disease today.

27、As a cause of death in the United States, cancer has climbed from less than 6 percent of all deaths in 1900 to over 20 percent today,【C2】_recent statistics. It is already the leading killer of women aged thirty to fifty-four. And add a killer of the overall population, it is second only to heart dis

28、ease,【C3】_close to 430, 000 deaths per year. This figure has risen annually since 1949, and if percent trends continue, cancer may well overtake heart disease as the number one cause of death. Can We Fight Cancer More Effectively Today?Although there is still much to be learned about cancer, our kno

29、wledge of the disease has grown steadily in recent years. We have a better understanding of the disease and are finding ways to【C4】_it. Early recognition of the signs of cancer, prompt diagnosis, and aggressive treatment by the appropriate means have made the word cancer less【C5 】_than it used to be

30、. Even people with forms of cancer that are still difficult to treat know that current techniques may【C6】_them to outwit the disease until improved treatment becomes available. Many cancer victims have hope where there was once despair. Even more important is the fact that some kinds of cancer are【C

31、7】_caused by preventable factorsfor example, 25 to 30 percent of all cancer deaths are related to cigarette smoking, and most skin cancer is caused by【C8】_exposure to the sun. Not all forms of cancer have such obvious associations, but where risk factors have been【C9】_, we can use this knowledge and

32、 attempt to reduce the odds of developing those particular forms of disease. You and the people you know can【C10】_your cancer risk as individuals.51 【C1 】（A）prior to（B） due to（C） according to（D）concerning52 【C2 】（A）based on（B） on the basis（C） concerning（D）due to53 【C3 】（A）leading to（B） resulting fro

Bush was about to begin his first State of the Union address, I gathered with three

35、anxious scientists in a small, windowless laboratory in Worcester, Massachusetts. We were at Advanced Cell Technologya privately owned biotechnology company that briefly made international headlines last fall by publishing the first scientific account of cloned human embryos. The significance of the

36、 achievement was debatable: the companys most successful embryo had reached only six cells before it stopped dividing (one other had reached four cells, another had reached two) a fact that led to a widespread dismissal, in the media and the scientific community, of ACTs “breakthrough“. The work was

37、 largely judged to be preliminary, inconsequential, and certainly not worthy of headlines. Many people in political and religious circles, however, had a decidedly different view. They deemed ACTs work an ethical transgression of the highest order and professed shock, indignation, and horror. Noneth

38、eless, ACT was pressing aheadwhich was why I had come to the companys cloning lab that night in January. The door to the lab was locked; a surveillance camera mounted on the ceiling watched our every move; and the mood was at once urgent and tense. A human egg, retrieved just hours earlier from a yo

39、ung donor, was positioned under a microscope, its image glowing on a nearby video monitor. The eggs chromosomes would shortly be removed, and the scientists in the room would attempt to fuse what remained of the egg with a human skin cell. If the procedure succeeded, the result would be a cloned hum

40、an embryo. Skin cell to embryoits one of the most remarkable quick-change scenarios modern biology has to offer. Its also one of the most controversial. Since the announcement, in 1997, of the cloning of the sheep Dolly, attempts to use human cells for cloning have provoked heated debate in the Unit

41、ed States, separating those who have faith in the promise of the new technology from those who envision its dark side and unintended consequences. Crucial to the debate is the fact that human cloning research falls into two distinct categories: reproductive cloning, a widely frowned-on effort that a

42、ims to produce a fully formed child; and therapeutic cloning, a scientifically reputable procedure that takes place entirely at the microscopic level and is designed to advance medical therapies and cure human ailments. The two start out the same way with a new embryo in a Petri dish. But the scient

43、ists I was observing in the lab had no intention of creating a person. Instead they were embarking on an experiment that, if successful, would be a first step toward creating radical new cures for patients like the donor of the skin cellTrevor Ross (not his real name), a two-year-old boy afflicted w

44、ith a rare and devastating genetic disease. The mood in the lab was tense in part because of the uncertain outcome of the experiment. But it was also tense because of concern over what President Bush might say about cloning in his address to the nation. A radio in one corner of the room was tuned to

45、 the broadcast as the scientists began their work, and they were listening carefully: in perhaps no other fields of science are researchers as mindful of which way the political winds are blowing. The ACT scientists had good reason to be concernedwhat they were doing that night might soon be made il

46、legal.61 The author was most probably as_.（A）an observer（B） a secretary（C） a secret agent（D）a correspondent62 According to the author, _.（A）ACTs scientists had no intention of creating a person（B） ACTs experiment would be the first step towards creating radical new cures（C） ACTs scientists were very

47、 mindful of governments perceptions（D）all the above63 According to the passage, human cloning is clearly categorized as_.（A）political and religious（B） reproductive and therapeutic（C） debatable and controversial（D）preliminary and inconsequential64 According to this passage, attempts to use human cell

49、he mood of the ACTs scientists was tense because_.（A）what they were doing that night might soon be made illegal（B） they would soon make ACTs breakthroughs（C） they would make international headline that night（D）President George W. Bush might come to their lab that night65 Modern biology is based on several unifying themes, such as the cell theory, genetics and inheritance, Francis Cricks central dogma of information flow, and Darw
