5、不同的绝种恐龙。类似这样的电影很受欢迎,证明了这一想法使人们感到既兴奋又恐惧。但事实上,要想克隆绝种动物,我们还有很长的路要走。科学家们现在还在进行克隆哺乳动物实验。这是因为克隆哺乳动物仍然还是一门新的科学,它是从20世纪50年代才开始认真进行研究的,如下列所示:20世纪50年代:克隆青蛙20世纪70年代:用老鼠胚胎进行研究1979年:对羊和老鼠的胚胎进行研究1981年:首次对老鼠进行实验性的克隆1983年:首次对奶牛进行实验性的克隆1996年:首次克隆哺乳动物(多莉羊)2000年:奶牛生野牛2001年:中国首次克隆出双胞胎小牛2002年:首次克隆猫2005年:首次克隆狗第2段译文不时地会有人
6、提议,克隆技术将有可能使地球上已经灭绝的动物(如恐龙)复活。不幸的是,据我们现在所知这是不可能的,也是不合适的。其原因有很多:首先要求你有完好的DNA(它提供有关细胞将如何生长的信息)。如果某个动物群体没有足够的多样性以战胜疾病,那么克隆这种动物的所有努力都将是无用的。种群多样性是指种群中动物的基因以不同的方式排列。其优点是,如果发生了某种新的疾病,这类动物中的一些可能会死去,而另外一些却能存活下来,并且把这种免疫力传给下一代。经过克隆的动物群体的最大缺点是:它们的基因排列有可能完全相同,因而它们有可能会死于同一种疾病。这样它们可能一个也留不下来传宗接代了。你如果克隆出任何绝种动物,而它们必须
7、生活在动物园里,那是不公平的。它们需要合适的栖息地过正常的野生生活。 第3段译文就我们现在所知道的而言,不可能克隆那些已经绝种了一万年以上的动物。事实上恐龙在6 500万年以前就已经消失了。所以说恐龙回归地球的可能性仅仅是个梦想罢了。课文理解.课文判断正(T)误(F)1Scientists are still experimenting with cloning mammals because they think it can make money.(F)2Diversity in a group helps prevent animals from dying of the same il
