题目内容
This August will be very precious for graduates by which time they _________into a university.
A.will be admitted | B.will have admitted |
C.have been admitted | D.will have been admitted |
D
解析试题分析:考查时态及语态的用法。主句中will是表示将来时,在从句中有by which time可以看出从句谓语动词应该用将来完成时,又因为they与admit之间是被动关系故选D;将来完成时表示将来某个时间之前已经完成的动作,常与by+将来的时间;这里指八月以前学生已经被大学录取了。一般将来时指将要发生的动作与将来的时间状语连用。
考点:考查时态及被动语态的用法。
点评:本题难。命题者在于考查学生的将来完成时与一般将来时的区别,学生误选A,认为是将来时而忽略了by which time的这个时间状语。
即学即练:Pick me up at 8 o'clock,I __________ breakfast by then.
A. will have B. will have had C. have D. have had
解析:B句意:早上8点钟你来接我,到时我已经吃完早饭了。
Scientists have not come close to understanding all the different kinds of life on the planet, but US researcher Craig Venter is already working on creating the first artificial life.
Venter and his researchers made a breakthrough this August. They successfully moved the DNA of one type of bacteria(细菌) to a yeast(酵母) cell, changed it, then put it into another bacterial cell.
“Bacteria have systems that protect them from foreign DNA,” Venter explained to the BBC. In the experiment, the team managed to block this system.
The experiment was performed on a simple type of bacteria called Mycoplasma mycoides. The team took the bacteria’s genes and put them into a yeast cell.
Putting the DNA in a yeast cell allowed the team to change the genes----in this case, taking out a gene that was not necessary for the bacteria to live.
They then put the gene into a host bacteria cell. The cell went on to divide normally, producing new healthy bacteria.
In January, the team created artificial genes of a new type of bacteria. Their next goal is to put the artificial DNA into a host cell to create a new species, according to a report in Science magazine.
“If we don’t make any errors, I think it should work and we should have the first artificial species by the end of the year,” Venter said in the report.
The first artificial life from is likely to be a simple man-made bacteria, to prove that the technology can work. But that form will be followed by more complex bacteria that turn coal into cleaner natural gas, or algae that can take in carbon dioxide and change it into fuel.
Many scientists think it’s good news to have this artificial life, but others are worried that the technology to create new organisms might end up in the wrong hands, with dangerous results.
