62、ression.阅读理解A British couple had flown to South Korea to wait for the arrival of two baby dogs which were born over Christmas after having their dead pet cloned. Laura Jacques and her husband,Richard Remde, from Yorkshire, are the first UK customers to use the services of the Sooam Biotech Research
63、Foundation, which offers a dog cloning service for $100,000 per dog.The couples dog, Dylan, died in June,2015, after being diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of deadly disease.“I had had Dylan since he was a baby,”Jacques said.“I loved him so much; he was my baby, my child, my entire world.”The couple got th
64、e DNA samples (样本)themselves after their pet died, and Remde flew them to South Korea twicethe DNA samples didnt grow the first time round. When the cloned pregnancies (妊娠) were confirmed, the couple were overjoyed.“I couldnt believe it,”said Jacques.“We were shocked and ecstatic.”Sooam, the leading
65、 laboratory in the world for dog cloning, has produced more than 700 dogs for customers. The technique involves planting DNA into a “blank” dog egg(卵子) that has had the nucleus(细胞核) removed. The egg is given electric shocks to cause cell division and is then planted into a female dog.The two baby do
66、gs which were born in South Korea have the same DNA to Dylan.Jacques heard about dog cloning from an article about a competition Sooam ran for one UK dog owner to have their dog cloned free of charge.Rebecca Smith was the winner and her dog,Winnie, who is still alive, was successfully cloned.David K
67、im, a scientist at Sooam, said the birth of the two cloned dogs was exciting for the laboratory because samples were taken from Dylan 12 days after he died.“This is the first case we have had where cells have been taken from a dead dog after a very long time,”he said.【语篇解读】一对英国夫妇将他们死去的宠物狗的DNA送到韩国进行克
68、隆并且获得了成功。1.The British couple flew to South Korea to .A.wait to have their pet treatedB.adopt two dogs that they like bestC.wait to clone their dead dogsD.see the dogs cloned from Dylan答案D细节理解题。根据第一段可知,这对英国夫妇去韩国是为了等待由他们死去的宠物狗克隆出的两只小狗。2.What does the underlined word “ecstatic” in Paragraph 3 probably
69、 mean?A.In a state of great doubt.B.In a state of being moved.C.In a state of great delight.D.In a state of being surprised.答案C词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“.the couple were overjoyed.”可知,当得知克隆的妊娠阶段被确认之后,这对夫妇喜出望外。由此可猜测,画线词的含义是狂喜的。3.What is planted into a female dog during the process of dog cloning?A.The “blank” do
70、g egg given electric shocks.B.The dog egg that has experienced cell division.C.The dog egg with DNA planted in without cell division.D.The dog egg with DNA planted in and given electric shocks.答案D细节理解题。根据第四段可知,这项克隆技术包括把DNA植入到一个去除了细胞核的“空的”卵子中,然后用电击促使这个卵子进行细胞分裂,最后将这颗卵细胞植入到母狗的身体里。由此可知,植入母狗身体中是经过电击的植入过D
71、NA的卵子。4.According to David Kim, what made them excited is that .A.this cloning is more difficult than beforeB.they cloned two dogs together for the first timeC.dead cells can be used as DNA samplesD.two lovely cloned dogs will be born答案A推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,David Kim说这是他们第一例在狗死后很长时间才获取细胞,并且克隆成功的案例。由此可知,
