Script: Human cloning is no longer a dream in the wake of the birth of the first cloned sheep, Dolly, in 1996. Since that moment, not only the scientists in the field of biotechnology, but also the people over the whole world, have focused their attentions on whether humanity should be cloned or not. Undoubtedly, human cloning has already become the most controversial issue for a period. But seemingly, people haven’t got tired of the endless debates on this topic. The most crucial consideration during the debate is if human cloning can bring about good more than harm to society or not.

Apparently, one of the well-known benefits brought about by human cloning is medical advance. Once a cell is duplicated using the genetic materials derived from its host, the cell can act as a primary cell capable of dividing and differentiating into specialized cells such as liver cells as well as nerve cells, and then develop into some kinds of vital organs. This sounds incredible, in particular to those who long for transplants to prolong their lives. Apart from this, during the process of nurturing the cloned embryo, scientists can extend their scope of knowledge about the mysterious causes and mechanism of certain fatal and incurable diseases like Parkinson’s disease, cancer and AIDs. On the basis of such discoveries, scientists are able to explore more ways to combat the diseases. Furthermore, according to many scientists’ statements, the ageing process could be hindered if human cloning proceeded successfully. This means the impractical dream of extending the average lifespan of humanity to 120 years could ultimately become reality. As long as all nations strictly control the use of human cloning, human cloning will do more good than harm. 正确答案： biotechnology 学生答案： 得分：0分

? I always thought that when our research was successful that I would just be pleased that we had 21 this when others had not. In reality, it is 22 — when you look through the microscope, you see what you may have looked like a long time ago, at least in part.

When I looked down and saw that cloned 23 , it brought tears to my eyes. I had done this for my mother, and I realized, 24 she only been able to live a few years longer, maybe we could have used this technology to help her. It was 25 to see that potential, which she never had a chance to experience. There’s a big 26 out there that we decided to destroy these embryos for some reason. There was so much 27 about this process because of the scientific 28 from the past that it was critical that there be no doubt that they were clones.

In the process of analysis, the embryos were destroyed by 29 . In other words, to get the 30 material from inside the cells to analyze it, you have to destroy the cell. A) if E) emotion I) emotional B) genetically F) transcendent J) skeptical C) fraud G) blastocyst K) misconception D) transparent H) skepticism L) genetic
