We have left out its title, which indicates clearly its purpose, in the hope that the reader will reconstruct it after reading the text.Sunnyside is one of the few surviving and best-documented examples of American romanticism in architecture and landscape design. Andrew Jackson Downing featured Sunnyside in his Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Landscape Gardening (1841) as an example of the "progressive improvement in Rural Architecture..." which, he explained, strives to be in "perfect keeping" with "surrounding nature" by its "varied" and "picturesque" outline. 'Architectural beauty," he taught, "must be considered conjointly with the beauty of the landscape,"Walking the 24-acre grounds is a pleasure in every season. Swans glide on the pond Irving called "the little Mediterranean", and a stone flume delights the ear with the sound of rushing water. A path leads up a small rise and from there down into "the glen," and up to the house. Behind the house, another path winds along the Hudson for views of the river at its widest point, the Tappan Zee.The modest stone cottage which was later to become Sunnysidewas originally a tenant farmer's house built in the late-seventeenthcentury on the Philipsburg Manor. During the eighteenth century, thecottage was owned by a branch of the Van Tassel family, the nameIrving later immortalized in "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow".Irving purchased the cottage in 1835 and directed the remodeling,adding Dutch-stepped gables, ancient weathervanes, and developingGothic and Romanesque architectural features for other parts of thehouse. He was so pleased with his home that in 1836 he wrote to hisbrother, Peter: "I am living most cozily and delightfully in this dear,bright little home, which I have fitted up to my own humor. Everythinggoes on cheerily in my little household and I would not exchange thecottage for any chateau in Christendom."Today's visitor to Sunnyside sees Irving's home much as itappeared during the final years of his life. The author's booklined studycontains his writing desk—a gift from his publisher, G.P. Putnam andmany personal possessions. The dining room, in which Irving and hisdinner guests often gathered to enjoy the beautiful sunsets over theHudson River, adjoins the parlor. Here Irving played his flute, while hisnieces, Sarah and Catherine, accompanied him on the rosewood piano.The piano and other original furnishings still grace the room. The smallpicture gallery off the parlor contains some original illustrations forIrving's work. The kitchen was quite advanced for its day, having a hotwater boiler and running water fed from the pond through agravity-blow system. The iron cookstove was also a "modernconvenience," replacing the open hearth in the 1850's.The second floor of the house contains several bedrooms, each ofwhich has its own personal character. The guest bedroom is furnishedwith a French-style bed and painted cottage pieces. The ingeniousarches in this and other rooms were designed by Irving. His bedroom,where he died in 1859, contains the author's tester Sheraton bed, alongwith his walking stick and a number of his garments and personaleffects. The small, bright room between the bedrooms might have beenused by Irving's nephew and biographer, Pierre Munro Irving, whocared for his uncle during the last months of his life. The room wasused originally to store books and papers. The bedroom used byIrving's nieces contains an Irving-family field bed with hand-madebobbin lace hangings, a chest of drawers, sewing stands, and anornamental stove. The guest room contains a cast iron bed probablymade in one of the foundries along the Hudson.Write True (T) or False (F)for the following questions.1.Sunnyside is the former residence of Washington Irving in WashingtonD.C2..Sunny side is a typical representative of Romanticism of Americancity architecture.3.According to Andrew Jackson Downing , architectural beauty must bein harmony with the beauty of the surrounding landscape.4.During the 18th century ,the cottage was owned by Van Tassel who wasmentioned by Irving in his book “the Legend of the Hollow” .5.Irving didn’t make any change to the cottage after he purchased it.6.Today’s Sunnyside has changed a lot compared with its appearance inIrving’s time.7.Sunnyside was built near the Hudson River.8.The study , the dining room , the parlor and the kitchen are all on thefirst floor of Irving’s house..9.All the bedrooms on the second floor are almost furnished in the samestyle.10.Washington Irving was cared for by his daughter during the last periodof his life.II 选择题Directions: There are 4 passages in this section. Eachpassage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).You should decide on the best choice and write the correspondingletter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Exchange a glance with someone, then look away. Do yourealize that you have made a statement? Hold the glance for a secondlonger, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for 3seconds, and the meaning has changed again. For every socialsituation, there is a permissible time that you can hold a person’s gazewithout being intimate, rude, or aggressive. If you are on an elevator,what gaze-time are you permitted? To answer this question, considerwhat you typically do. You very likely give other passengers a quickglance to size them up and to assure them that you mean no threat.Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction,you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be left alone. Soyou cut off eye contact, what sociologist Erving Goffman (1963) calls“a dimming of the lights”. You look down at the floor, at theindicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger’s eyes. Shouldyou break the rule against staring at a stranger on an elevator? You willmake the other person exceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely tofeel a bit strange yourself.If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are youtelling another person? Much depends on the person and the situation.For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this manner.They typically gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, thendrop their eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again.▆▆■■■■■■■■■■■■。

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten year s old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal.21. The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was ______ for the father and the son.A. hardB. enjoyableC. painfulD. comfortable22. The underlined word “crystal” in the passage means _______.A. 岩石B. 火焰C. 水晶D.寒冰23. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the father’s words in the second paragraph?A. You will get all you need at the top of the mountain.B. The sky is always as clear as crystal.C. You can find life is full of nice things.D. Never give up half-way.24. We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.A. the writer was very successful in his lifeB. the writer reached the top of the mountainC. though the writer was young, he could understand his fatherD. the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain25. The best title for the passage is ______.A. Reaching the Top of the MountainB. Standing at the Top of the MountainC. Conversations between Father and SonD. How to Get to the Top of the MountainPassage TwoEveryone has got two personalities (性格) —the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control yourself, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you’re always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You’re shy and you don’t usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confi dent personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don’t often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.26. You may find the passage in_____.A. a science magazineB. a guide bookC. a sports newspaperD. a story book27. When does the sleeping position best show your secret personality?A. In the daytime.B.

What does the passage tell us?A. Sleeping on your side is the best way of sleeping.B. Changing positions will cause sleeping problems.C. Sleeping positions show people’s secret personalities.D. Enough sleep makes people look better and healthier.Passage ThreeThere have been many great inventions or things that changed the way we live. The first great invention was the one that is still very important today——the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distance.For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn’t have to explore much any more. They began to work inst ead to make life better.In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all play a big part in our daily life today.The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909, movies with sound in 1926, the computer in 1928, jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore.The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and allowed them to live longer. By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60.By this time most people in developed countries had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The earth was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their own steps into space.In 1969 man took his biggest step away from earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly just a beginning, though. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.31. This passage talks mainly about .A. why cars were very importantB. when light was inventedC. how inventions affect people’s daily lifeD. which country made the first step into space32.

Nylon came out of five years later than .A. radioB. cameraC. jet planesD. movies35. People can live longer lives because that help cure diseases have worked very well.A. doctorsB. new waysC. medicinesD. new hospitalsPassage FourShopping is an important part of any tourist’s activities. Shopping leads as the number on e activity while traveling for both domestic and international travelers. The Travel Industry Association of America (TIA) reports that shopping is an activity engaged in by 33 percent of domestic travelers. The U.S. Department of Commerce reports that 90 percent of international visitors shopped in the United States in 1997 as part of their vacation activities.An example of shopping’s importance is the Bayside Marketplace. The Rouse Company has created Miami—Dade Country’s number one visitor attraction, B ayside Marketplace, which was launched in April 1987. It has attracted more than 120 million visitors from South Florida and around the world. The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau has repeatedly identified Bayside as Miami—Dade County’s number on e visitor attraction, and Florida Trend magazine recently published a report naming Bayside as the fifth—most –visited attraction in the state of Florida.Bayside has nearly 140 shops offering a variety of merchandise(商品) in both the North and South Pavilions and Pier 5 Marketplace.

While it would be wonderful to have these types of relationships with all people, we know that’s hard to do. However, we can have such relationships with some others, but only when we first have them with ourselves — and, strangely, this is often the hardest relationship of all.Do you love yourself? You may think you do, but do you really? There’s only one way to find out — by taking a close look at what you think, say and do. You may not like some of wha t you find, but if you’re serious (认真的) about really loving yourself, you can use this insight to do some positive inner work.Here are three ways for gaining greater personal insight (洞察力) for deeper love.Listen Closely to Your Thoughts (想法)Your thoughts will determine your actions. One of the things that have helped you to listen to your thoughts is keeping a journal (日志). It is not necessary for you to write in it everyday, but it helps to record various insights you gain as you go about your life. Instead of using a big notebook, you might use a small notepad (笔记本) that you can keep in your purse or pocket for easy access to record your thoughts as they occur to you. Whichever method you choos e, what’s most important is that you write your thoughts dow n. It will help you know what’s in your heart.Be Honest with YourselfTo do this, you should pay attention to your actions. Actions speak louder than words, and they always tell the truth. If you say you love your job, but your actions say otherwise, which do you think is more true—your words or your actions? On the other hand, if you say you're not good at a certain job, but your actions say otherwise, that's also important. What do you do with this insight? You can use it to make more positive choices in your life. By being honest with yourself, you will act according to truth instead of just what you tell yourself.Take Quiet Time to Listen to Your Inner Voice.This is similar (相似的) to the first point, but it takes it a step further — beyond (超越) the natural mind to the heart that cannot be seen. You may want to use your quiet time to think deeply. However you use this time, the key is to shut out all of the noise around you by focusing (注意) deep within yourself. Breathing deeply during quiet time will also help you focus.

Choose the ONEthat you think is the best answer.Passage OneAfter practicing as a surgeon for several years, Dr. Ginoux decided to apply for membership in the American College of Surgeons, a highly selective and distinguished professional organization.As part of the application procedure, Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have …Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.1.Dr. Ginoux was working inA. a large cityB.the American College of SurgeonsC.an area far from any big cityD. a selective organization2.The application forms must includeA.the decision procedureB. a record of all the operationsC.the best techniqueD. a list of advice and judgments3.It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux wasA. a member in that surgeonB. a well-trained surgeonC. a graduate from the American College of SurgeonsD. a distinguished surgeon in America4.When she was filling the application forms, Dr. Ginoux began to beA.realisticB.distinguishedC.perplexedD.decisive5.When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed becauseA.she didn’t perform enough operationsB.some operations were unsuccessfulC.she did n’t get advice from the selection committeeD.she was doubtful about her operationsPassage TwoAt sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school, but the future called to him excitedly. “Get out of the classroom into a job,” it said, and Ron obeyed. His father, supporting the decision, found a place for him in a supermarket. “You’re lucky, Ron,”he said. “For every boy with a job these days, there’s a dozen with-out.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week.For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food. By the end of that time he was looking back on his school-days as a time of great variety and satisfaction. He searched for an interest in his work, with little success.One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south. With nine pounds in his pocket, a full heart and a great longing for the sea, he set out to make a better way for himself. That evening, in Bournemouth, he had a sandwich and a drink in a café run by an elderly man and his wife. Before he had finished the sandwich, the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer, at twenty pounds a week, a room upstairs and three meals a day. The ease and speed of it rather took Ron’s breath away. At quiet times Ron had to check the old man’s arithmetic in the records of the business.At the end of the season, he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeento make a living. He worked in shops mostly, but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks. Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop. Ron soon found himself in charge there; he was the only one who could keep the books.6.Why did Ron Mackie leave school at sixteen?A.His father made him leaveB.He had reached the age when he had to leaveC.He left because he was worried about the futureD.He left because he wanted to start work7.What did Ron’s father think about his leaving school?A.He thought his son was doing the right thingB.He advised him to stay at school to complete his educationC.He did not like the idea, but he helped Ron to find work.D.He knew there was a job for every boy who wanted one.8.It took about a year for Ron to realize thatA.he worked well because he was interested in the jobB.his work at the supermarket was dull.C.being at work was much better than going to schoolD.the store manager wanted to get rid of him9.Why did Ron leave the supermarket?A.He knew he would find work in Bournemouth.B.He took a job as a lorry driver.C.He gave up the job because he felt unwell.D.He wanted to work at the seaside10.Ron was able to take over the shoe shop becauseA.he got on well with the manager thereB.he knew how to keep the accounts of the businessC.he had had experience of selling booksD.he was young and strongPassage ThreeIf you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947), concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and, temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!11.According to the passage, your intelligence probably________.A.stays the same throughout the yearB.varies from day to dayC.changes with the seasonsD.changes from year to year12.Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have _____A. a great effect on everyone’s intelligenceB.some effect on most persons’ intelligenceC.some effect on a few persons’ intelligenceD.no effect on most persons’ intelligence13.It seems that the cold winter____A.increases the ability to thinkB.is the best time for thinkingC.is better for thinking than is very warm weatherD.decreases the ability to think14.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that______A.all nature, including man, is growing thenB.it lasts longer than the other seasonsC.it is not too warm and not too coldD.both B and C15. According to the passage, any vacations from thinking should be taken ______A. several times throughout the yearB. during spring and fallC. during the summerD.as seldom as possiblePart IV Translation.

AThe Breakfast ClubStarred by John Hughes，1985Five high school students with nothing in common are forced to spend an entire Saturday together in detention(拘留)．At seven am．they had nothing to say，but by four pm，they had bared their souls to each other and became good friends—the Jock，the Brain，the Criminal，the Princess，and the Kook．They were finally able to talk about themselves while they were forced to stay together．Pretty in Pink．Starred by Howard Deutch，1986Pretty in Pink looks at the central dilemma of adolescence where one’s dreams are much larger than one’s confidence．Molly Ringwald plays Andie Walsh，a poor girl living with her father and working in a downtown record store．The school she attends is full of wealthy snobs(势利小人)and she likes a rich kid Blane．There is nothing new about the plot—rich boy and poor girl love each other and snobbery nearlydestroys the romance．CluelessStarred by Amy Heckerling and Alicia Silverstone，1995Cher，played by Alicia Silverstone，is one of the most popular girls at Beverly Hills High School where rich kids hang out，talk to each other on cell phones and occasionally attend classes．At 15 going on 16，Cher has it all—a white Jeep，an extensive wardrobe with a computer to help select the perfect dress，and an unbelievable ability to charm，cajole and whine(哄骗和哭诉)until others obey her requests．The dialogue is wiry and entertaining．1．The Breakfast Club is about__________．A．a prince and a princess B．several criminalsC．several students D．some tourists2．we can conclude from Pretty in Pink that__________．A．the love between Molly and Blane aren’t going smoothlyB．Molly and Blane eventually get marriedC．Molly’s and Blane’a parents quite agree to their loveD．the love between Molly and Blane defeats snobbery3．Which of the following is starred by Howard Deutch?A．The Breakfast Club． B．Pretty in Pink．C．Clueless．D．Beverly Hill Schoo1．4．We can infer that the Breakfast Club，Pretty in Pink and Clueless are three_____．A．world-famous paintings about religionB．Disney’s cartoons about love storiesC．films about teenagersD．ancient Roman fairy talesBPeople back in the United States are always asking me，“What’s it like to live in China?”They hope to hear strange stories about weird food and cultural conflicts．Instead，I tell them that living in China is like being a baby．Please don’t misunderstand me．I don’t think that Chinese people are babies．I am a baby．Or at least，I become one when I leave my house．That’s because babies can’t read，and when I leave my house in Beijing，I'm illiterate(不识字的)．This can be dangerous．If a sign says，“Watch out for big angry bears，”in Chinese，I will continue walking，completely ignorant of my peril(危险)．Then a bear will eat me for breakfast．I have started to recognize a few characters，but they seem impossible to ever learn without a lifetime of study．When I see a character I like．I give it a name．There is“The Square，”“The Octopus(章鱼)，”“The-upside-down Octopus，”and my favorite，“Upside-down Octopus on an airplane．”However，I still don’t know their sounds or meanings．They are just beautiful mysteries to my eyes．Because I can’t read，city streets present an endless series of enigmas．If I see a business，I wonder，“Is that a restaurant? A dentist? A lawyer’s office?”Once，while hungry，I saw a big colorful sign．I walked in and asked a realtor(房屋中介)to see the drink menu．Speaking of menus，eating at restaurant is a daily misadventure．Many places have photos of food，which is helpful．But if they have no photos，I walk from table to table and point at whatever looks delicious．I apologize if I’ve ever interrupted your dinner to point at your plate．I didn’t mean to be rude．I was just a hungry baby !5．Why does the author think living in China is like being a baby?A．Some Chinese people behave like babies．B．It’s comfortable to be a baby in China．C．He is as curious as a baby about Chinese things．D．He is like a new-born who can’t read at a11．6．What do we know about the author?A．He can order food in simple Chinese．B．He doesn’t know many Chinese Characters．C．His spoken Chinese is better than his written Chinese．D．He memorizes Chinese words based on their sounds．7．In Paragraph5，what does the underlined word enigmas mean? A．Stories．B．Mirac1es． C．Choices．D．Puzzles．8．What is the passage mainly about?A．The author’s love for Chinese food．B．The language barrier the author meets in China．C．Cultural conflicts the author faces in China．D．How the author overcomes difficulties in learning Chinese．CMorgan Holmes had taken part in Boy Scouts of America activities for a few years，but she only became a full member recently．This was because the Boy Scouts began accepting girls from fifth grade to 12th grade into a new program called Scouts BSA．It brings girls the opportunities boys have，including becoming Eagle Scouts，the highest rank of the Boy Scouts．“I'm loving it，”Morgan，now 17，said．“I finally get to wear the uniform now．”Six middle school girls have joined Morgan in Troop48 in Scouts BSA．Some were members of Girls Scouts，and some have brothers in the Boy Scouts．Now brothers and sisters can take part in activities．Morgan knows Boy Scouts activities well．Starting when she was 14，Morgan went on high-adventure outings like hiking 1 00 miles and shooting guns．But she’d never been able to progress to become an Eagle Scout．Now Morgan’s goal is to reach the top rank of Eagle Scout．She regularly runs a mile to build up her body．Now，she’s planning on camping in the snow．“The journey to get there is really exciting，”she said．Since Boy Scout activities are led by the Scouts themselves，Morgan，as the oldest girl，will be organizing activities and teaching the girls to tie knots and other skills．One of those girls in Troop48 is Nicolette U1rich，who is also in the Girl Scouts．Her mother，Sasha Ulrich，said she sees，the Boy Scouts as more leadership oriented and the Girl Scouts as more culturally oriented．This will be shown by all upcominggathering where girls will learn about different food and cultures from around the world．“Girl Scouts is a great group and she’11 continue to do that．”Sasha said．“But she also wanted the opportunities provided by the Boy Scouts．”9．What did Morgan want to do after becoming a full member of Boy Scouts? A．She wanted to join in the activities with her brother．B．She wanted to challenge herself to become，all Eagle Scout．C．She wanted to compete with boys in all activities.D．She wanted to hike long distances and shoot guns with boys．10．What is the best word to describe Morgan?A．Communicative B．Helpful C．Creative D．Adventurous 11．What does Sasha Ulrich think of Boy Scouts?A．It is more culturally oriented．B．It helps to build teamwork．C．It helps to improve leadership．D．It is more interesting than Girl Scouts．DOne step too farScientists have been trying to figure out how to alter the genes of humans for many years now，and it looks like they’ve finally cracked(破解)the code．But while this may seem like a great step forward in science，some also believe that it’s one step back when it comes to ethics．In August，a group of scientists from the US and South Korea worked together to successfully edit a human embryo and remove a genetic mutation(突变)that would have led to heart disease，reported The Guardian．This was achieved with the help of CRISPR，a gene-editing tool that allows scientists to“cut and paste”human DNA．Although this was the first example of an embryo’s genes being changed successfully，the benefits of gene editing have already been tested in living patients．In 202X，a five-month-old girl from the UK was saved after doctors used editedcells to fight off her cancer．As of today，she’s alive and well．And in the US last year，scientists managed to remove HIV cells from several patients by editing the genes inside their bodies．Some people hope that in the future，diseases or birth detects could simply be “edited out”．However，others believe this could lead to so-called designer babies，giving parents the option to choose everything from eye color to intelligence．“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest‘upgrades’for their children，leading to even greater inequality than we already live with，”Marcy Darnovsky，director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics，told BBC News．In spite of these ethical concerns，experts say it’s not possible to create the“perfect”human being．Despite the progress scientists have made，We don’t understand human genes enough to give all unborn child great brainpower or amazing singing abilities．“Right now，we know nothing about genetic enhancement，”Hank Greely，a director of sciences at Stanford University，US，told The New York Times．“We’re never going to be able to say，honestly，‘This embryo looks like it would score high on the two-part SAT．’”So it looks like if we want good exam results，or to impress people with our piano skills，we’11 have to stick with the old fashioned method of plain hard work —at least for now．12．The underlined word“alter”in Paragraph 1 probably means________．A．record B．change C．remove D．increase13．Why do some people consider human gene editing a step backwards? A．They don’t think it is an effective way to light diseases．B．They are concerned that it could lead to genetic mutations．C．They think it could lead to designer babies and increased inequality．D．They worry that it could make parents abandon children with birth defects．14．What was the first successful example of human embryo gene editing? A．A genetic mutation related to heart disease was removed by scientistsB．A newborn baby with cancer was saved by edited cells．C．HIV cells were removed from patients’bodies．D．Some birth defects were simply edited out．15．What can we conclude from the text?A．Gene editing is regarded as the perfect way to treat birth defects．B．There is still a long way to go to fully understand human genes．C．Gene editing could help enhance human intelligence in the near future．D．Scientists are pessimistic about the future of gene editing．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
