Direction：Read the following passage and answer the questions according to the imfomation you get in the passage and the required words limit．
Agricultural scientists in the United States have put a copy of a human gene into pigs, sheep and rabbits．They report that the gene seems to be working in some of the animals．The gene that the scientists are using controls the production of human growth hormone(荷尔蒙), a chemical necessary for growth．
They are using the human gene because it has been more closely studied than any other growth gene．The scientists hope their work will someday result in food animals that grow faster and larger or produce more milk or eggs．The research is being done by scientists at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Washington and the United States Department of Agriculture．The scientists put copies of human growth hormone into the fertilized(受精的)eggs of the female animals．When baby animals were born from the eggs, the scientists looked for evidence that the human gene had become part of the animal’s genetic material．They examined almost 200 baby pigs and found the gene in 20 of them．They found it in 28 of more than 200 rabbits, but it was in only one of 73 baby sheep．The scientists said they found the human growth chemical produced by the gene in some of the animals．
It is too soon to know if the animals will pass the human growth gene into their young, proving that the gene has become part of their genetic material．Similar research with mice two years ago produced a new kind of mouse that is two times larger than normal．The scientists hope the same thing will happen with farm animals．They say their research will permit other gene transplants that can give animals defense against diseases, or let them live in very hot or very cold places．American farmers already use chemical hormones to increase the size of cattle and the amount of milk they produce．But they have to put the hormones into the cows．If the gene transplants are fully successful, the cow’s body will produce growth hormone．
1．How many kinds of animals have scientists put copies of human gene into?(no more than 1 word)
________________
2．Why do the scientists do such a research?(no more than 15 words)
________________
3．How does the gene work in the growth of animals?(no more than 8 words)

What comes as a shock to many Westerners may be the unfriendly way that some Chinese treat waiters and waitresses in restaurants and bars. Over the last few years,as many in Beijing have made fortunes,I and many of my foreign friends have noticed a downturn in the treatment of those who work all hours and often live in terrible conditions to bring us our food,guard our homes and sell us clothes.It's not the common citizens,but the young nouveau riches(暴发户) Chinese in Beijing who are mostly guilty of this both social and human misbehavior.
It is not unusual to see and hear these people,especially the young women among their ranks,speaking rudely to the waiters and waitresses,as they sit there in the misguided belief that the latest mobile phone,a new car and designer clothes give them the right to talk to people like dirt.In one recent incident(事件) in an expensive restaurant near where I live ,I overheard the table next to me,two guys and a girl,tell the waitress "You really are stupid ",because she had brought them two glasses instead of three.They all burst into loud laughter as the young girl ran away to fetch another.In anther incident I saw a waitress reduced to tears as four well-dressed girls criticized everything from her accent to her looks.
Lately I have noticed that this rather unpleasant aspect of the nouveau riches has been taken up by many of their foreign peers(同类人).So I ask Beijing's bright young things to set a good example,and treat all people with equal respect.And I urge foreigners to follow the good examples of their Chinese language teachers and textbooks while adding some of the pleasantries of their own cultures,so that cultural interpenetration(相互渗透) has a positive influence and not a negative one.
Here I'd like to leave you with the words from Confucius:"What you do not wish for yourself, do not "do to others."
64.The writer has noticed that less respect is shown to _______ in Beijing in recent years.
A.common citizens B.waiters and the like
C.young nouveau riches D.some foreigners
65.The two incidents mentioned in Paragraph 2 are used to show ______.
A.waiters and waitresses can make excusable mistakes
B.waitresses are usually too shy to be laughed at
C.some Beijingers are too particular about restaurant service
D.what's being talked about is not rare
66.The young Beijingers are asked to set a good example in order to ______
A.have good influence over foreigners
B.leave a good impression on foreigners
C.educate younger Chinese
D.develop traditional Chinese culture
67.The origial title of the article is most likely to be _______.
A.One Dark Side of the Bright Chinese Capital
B.Beijing's Young Nouveau Riches,Watch Out
C.Dno't Throw Away Good Manners,Please
D.People Like Waiters Live at Bottom of Society

C
The villagers of Yaluma in Southern Mexico are some of the poorest people in the country. But now they have an extra source of income.They are being paid to grow and develop forests by the organization in charge of Formula One racing (一级方程式赛车),which pumps 5,500 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air every year.The idea is that the forests being planted around Yaluma will absorb this amount. It will also provide people there with money while wiping out motor racing's environmental debt.
Projects like this go under the name of "carbon trading". The basic idea is that governments and companies can buy the right to pump CO2 into the air by investing in green projrvyd. They can buy so-called "carbon credits" from countries which have succeeded in reducing CO2 emissions(排放物).
Supporters of carbon trading say that it brings money and green technology to poorer countries.It also provides a new way of doing busingess and spreading prosperity. They point out that the process of globalization will give people everywhere the most possible choice of products and services. Carbon trading is just another way of bringing that about. It is a "win - win" situation.
Opponents argue that nature comes before lifestyle. CO2 emissions need to be reduced, not bought and sold. And they believe that the rich world should lead the way.People might be willing to change the way they live to help save the world, but not to help the rich countries keep a lifestyle that depends on pollution.
Supporters of carbon trading believe in unlimited growth.Opponents believe that nature sets limits to the choices we make on how to live.It is "don't do " against "can do". It is life against lifestyle.
It is believed that modern lives are about choice.For example,the world can choose to take the danger of global warming seriously.And the sooner we choose to do it, the more choices we have about what to do next and the more time we have to do it in. We can also choose to pay no attention to the danger of global warming to keep our lifestyles. Then one day nature may give us no choice at all,and maybe not much of a life,either.
64.Carbon trading is discussed in the text in order to show the importance of ______ .
A.reducing pollution B.taking care of forests
C.spreading prosperity D.choosing lifestyle or nature
65."Carbon credits" may be used to ______.
A.get the right to pump CO2 into the air
B.get the right to pump CO2 into poor countries
C.learn about the way to reduce CO2 emissions
D.improve the way to reduce CO2 emissions
66.We can infer from the text that in the "win - win" situation _____.
A.rich countries perform their duty to help poor countries
B.poor countries get what they need from rich countries
C.both rich countries and poor countries get what they need
D.rich countries learn from poor countries in reducing pollution
67.In the opinion of people who are against carbon trading,the rich countries should ____.
A.guide poor countries in reducing CO2 emissions
B.show by example how to reduce emissions
C.offer more help to save the world
D.improve their lifestyles to keep the world clean
