13.The United States government has decided that food from cloned(克。 cattle,pigs and goats is safe to eat.The Food and Drug Administration also says it found no risks in meat and milk from cloned animals.
The F.D.A.looked at studies for several years before it announced its decision in a final report this month.The United States Department of Agriculture supported the findings.But it says time is needed to clear the way for marketing meat and milk from clones.
The F.D.A.will not require any product to be registered(注冊(cè)) as coming from clones.A producer would need to label a product"clone-free".The agency says that could be misunderstood because the food is not different from other food.
But activists argue that the F.D.A.based its decision on incomplete research into possible risks.The Center for Food Safety criticized the use of studies supplied by cloning companies.Animal rights activists point out that cloning attempts often fail.They say cloning is cruel and can lead to suffering.
Congress (國(guó)會(huì)) has been trying to get the F.D.A.to do more studies.But the agency noted that experts in New Zealand and the European Union had come to the same findings about the safety of food from clones.Japan,South Korea and Taiwan say they want to study it further before taking action.
Products from cloning may not be widely used for several years.Clones cost much,which is why they are not widely used for feeding.The Agriculture Department says few clones will ever become food.Their traditionally raised animals would enter the food supply instead.

5.The basic flag of the United States is one of the world's oldest national flags.Only the basic flags of Austria,Denmark,Great Britain,the Netherlands,Sweden,and Switzerland are older.
During the discovery and settlement of what is now the United States,the flags of various European nations were flown over the land,as symbols of possession.Later,in the Colonial and Revolutionary War periods,flags representing famous persons,places,and events were flown in the American Colonies.
The first official flag of the United States was created by Congress on June 14,1777.It consisted of 13alternate red and white stripes and 13white stars in a field of blue,representing the 13colonies that had declared their independence in 1776.Congress adopted a new flag of 15stars and 15stripes in 1795to give representation to the two new states admitted into the Union,Vermont and Kentucky.
By 1817,there were 20states in the Union,and it became apparent that adding one stripe for each new state would destroy the shape of the flag.As a result,Congress in 1818restored the original design of 13stripes and provided that each state was to be represented by one star.In 1912President William H.Taft made the first official provision for the arrangement of the stars.He ordered that there be six even rows of eight stars each.Previously the arrangement of the stars had been left to the flag-maker's fancy.
The evolution of the Stars and Stripes reflects the growth of the United States.After the admission of Hawaii into the Union in 1959,the flag was officially changed for the 26th times since its creation.There are many government flags flown in the United States in addition to the national flag.Among them are the president's and vice-president's flags and those of the federal departments and some federal agencies.Each state in the Union has an official flag.The United States Navy uses special flags for signaling.
32.The basic flag of the United States isB.
A.the oldest national flag in the world.
B.one of the world's oldest flags.
C.the most beautiful flag in the West.
D.a(chǎn)s old as the basic flags of some European nations.
33.The first official flag of the United States was adoptedD.
A.before the Independence War
B.right after the Independence War
C.in the following year of the Independence War.
D.when independence was declared in 1776
34.The 13red and white stripes and 13white stars representB.
A.13independent states
B.the colonies that declared independence in 1776
C.the U.S.Congress
D.13famous figures in the American colonies
35.Why was the original design of 13stripes restored in 1818?D
A.The American people suggested it.
B.Congress insisted 13is the best number.
C.That was a decision President Taft had made.
D.Too many stripes would destroy the shape of the flag.
