DNA is the whole “map” of the human body. It is something that all humans have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.

People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes”(基因)in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that genes are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.

In 1961, another two scientists found the first “word” that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell (細(xì)胞)to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still don’t understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word” means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.

Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more “words” and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way. Just to make people more attractive (有吸引力的), or stop sick people getting jobs.

試題分析:本文敘述了對(duì)于研究DNA,不同的人有不同的看法。有些人覺(jué)得這很有用,因?yàn)樗梢詭椭t(yī)生們研制出更好的藥物來(lái)治病救人;也有點(diǎn)人覺(jué)得如果人們了解了DNA,人們會(huì)用錯(cuò)誤的方式來(lái)使用這項(xiàng)技術(shù)。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。 根據(jù)文章的第二段In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family.可知,在1860年,Mr. Mendel發(fā)現(xiàn)了我們?yōu)槭裁磿?huì)長(zhǎng)得很像我們家族的其他人。故選B。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that genes are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.可知,在1953年,Watson and Crick兩位科學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)基因攜帶信息,這些信息用特殊的語(yǔ)言寫(xiě)在DNA上。故選D。

3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的第三、四段的內(nèi)容可知,人們對(duì)DNA信息了解的越多,醫(yī)生們可以做的就越多,他們可以研制出更好的藥來(lái)拯救病人,故選A。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的第三段So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still don’t understand what they all do可知,到目前為止,科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了DNA上的所有信息,但是我們?nèi)匀徊恢肋@些信息可以做什么,故B選項(xiàng)的表達(dá)是錯(cuò)誤的;由why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes”(基因)in our body可知A是正確的;由scientists have found all the words in the DNA map可知C是正確的;由DNA tells the cell to build its parts可知D是正確的。

5.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段的內(nèi)容可知,對(duì)于研究DNA,不同的人有不同的看法。有些人覺(jué)得這很有用,因?yàn)樗梢詭椭t(yī)生們研制出更好的藥物來(lái)治病救人;也有點(diǎn)人覺(jué)得如果人們了解了DNA,人們會(huì)用錯(cuò)誤的方式來(lái)使用這項(xiàng)技術(shù)。故選D

On June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named “genes” in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaci found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell(細(xì)胞)to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word”   means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.
Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when people begin to know more words and find out lots of other information, we might use it in a wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs.
