Clone Technology Like Driving Cars

  The recent death of the world's most famous sheep--Dolly the clone--has not dampened(使沮丧)the enthusiasm(热情)of Chinese scientists, who are working hard to make more breakthroughs(突破)in clone technology.

  “It is hard to say whether Dolly died at a relatively young age or died from defects(缺陷)in reproduction.”Du Miao, a researcher with the Biology and Growth Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told China Daily in Beijing yesterday.“But Dolly's case reminds us that both Chinese and foreign scientists should put more efforts into improving clone technology as well as disease treatment techniques in the field of cloning animals.” He said his institute, in co operation(合作)with Yangzhou University in Eastern China's Jiangsu Province, had cloned more than 10 sheep since 1999 and the oldest is nearly five. They are all still alive.

  Li Ning, deputy(代表)director of the National Key Laboratory of Agricultural and Biological Technology, who is also a professor with the Beijing Based China Agriculture University, said, “Clone technology is actually progressing well. Dolly is the first cloned sheep after all. Like driving cars, new drivers meet with accidents more easily, but the more you drive, the easier and safer you feel. In the future, the death rate of cloned animals will be reduced with technological developments.”

  “Official reports show seven locally cloned sheep are still alive. Clone technology in China is gradually approaching(接近)a level of commercialization(商业化),”Li added. But Wang Yu, deputy(代表)director of the Biological Technology Centre under the Ministry of Science and Technology, said the commercialization of clone technology depends on market demand.

They understand each other through the U.N. interpreters. Some of the interpreters speak as many as ten languages. But they all must know at least three of the official languages.

     All of the 2,026 seats in the General Assembly Hall are equipped with earphones. The earphones are attached to the sides of the seats. At each seat there is a box that has a switch with numbers on it. There is a number for each of the six official languages and one for the speaker. By turning the switch, the listener can hear either the speaker or the translations into any of six languages; Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.

     Now imagine that a meeting is going on. Some of the delegates(代表)speak only English. Others only French or Spanish. Still others speak only Russian or Chinese. How can they understand each other?

     By using the earphones and listening to the amusing interpreters!

     The interpreters sit in glass-walled, sound-proof booths(隔音的单个小间)looking over the Assembly Hall. They listen to each speaker and translate what he says almost immediately. They speak into microphone connected to the earphones at the listeners’ seats.

     How does this work?

     Let’s say a delegate at the meeting is talking in Russian. The French delegate doesn’t understand Russian. So he turns the switch at his seat to the number for French. At once he hears the Russian speech translated into French.

     The interpreters must be very good indeed. They must be able to hear someone talking and in a matter of seconds translate what he has said.

A. Try your best to learn French

B. Ask others who understand it
