He had to repeat his lesson and explain the idea more slowly. Some students began to understand, but ma
25、ny others didnt. Over the next few days, Mr. Miller explained and explained the lesson. He used many different ideas and works until almost the whole class understood and knew how to divide. Speaker 2: People in the High Street neighborhood dont buy their fruits and vegetables in the supermarket. Th

Number of Human Genes Questioned Scientists are questioning a widely reported finding from the first detailed study of t
33、he human gene map. The scientists dispute the findings that humans have only about thirty thousand genes. The new report suggests the true number could be much greater. Some believe that humans have more than one hundred thousand genes. The issue seemed to be settled last February. That is when two
34、competing teams of scientists published their efforts to map the position of every human gene. A private American company called Celera Genomics published one of the genetic maps. An international group called the Human Genome Project prepared the other. Each group of scientists estimated that human
35、s have about thirty thousand genes. That is about two times as many genes as some insects. That number came as a surprise to some people. They wondered how an organism as complex as a human could have so few genes. Some scientists believed the small number of genes was good news. It meant it would b
36、e easier to identify all the genes and understand how they work. In the new study, the Novartis scientists compared the two groups of human genes from the two genetic maps. They found that the two groups of scientists had identified two different sets of genes. Only about half the genes are common t
37、o both groups. The Novartis scientists say this means the number of human genes may be about four thousand. The director of the Human Genome Project, Francis Collins, said he would not be surprised if humans were found to have more than thirty thousand genes. Celeras President, Craig Venter, notes t
38、hat the process of discovering the real number is not simple. He said many of the genes noted in his companys study had not been confirmed. The real number of human genes may not be known any time soon. Scientists say it probably will take years before we have a list of the genes that control human

They rang up sales and put the items into plastic bags for the customers to carry out. At the back of the shop was a big room where a
42、nother lady worked. She sorted the new donations and put price tags on them. At the end of each day, she would bring the new donations out to the main part of the shop. Everyone who worked at the thrift shop was a volunteer. The only “payment“ they received was that they had the opportunity to see,
43、and buy, any items in the shop before the customers did. When Jim entered, the lady at the register told him hello. He smiled and said hello. She knew Jim because he was a regular customer. Jim said, “Whats new?“ She laughed and said that nothing was ever new at a thrift shop. “Its always old and it
44、s always used,“ she smiled. Jim looked at the watches in the glass case. He saw one that he liked. “Could I look at that one?“ he asked. That is the end of Part 4.
