The researchers, led by Hwang Woo-suk, insist they cloned an Afghan hound, only to help investigate (研究) human disease, including the possibility of cloning stem cells (干细胞) for treatment purposes.
But others immediately renewed calls for a global ban (禁令)on human reproductive cloning before the technology moves any farther.
"Successful cloning of an increasing number of species confirms the general impression that it would be possible to clone any species of mammals, including humans," said Ian Wilmut, a reproductive biologist at the University of Edinburgh who produced the first cloned mammal, Dolly the sheep, from an adult cell nearly a decade ago.
Researchers have since cloned cats, goats, cows, mice, pigs, rabbits, horses, deer, mules and gaur, a large wild ox of Southeast Asia. So far, efforts to clone a monkey or another primate with the same techniques have failed.
Uncertainties about the health and life span (寿命) of cloned animals continue to exist; Dolly died at a young age in 2003 after developing cancer and arthritis.
Wilmut and others complimented Hwang's achievement, reported Wednesday in the journal Nature. But they said politicians and scientists must face the larger issue — how to go on with the research without crossing the moral boundary of copying human life in the lab.
"The ability to use the technology is hopeful," said Robert Schenken, president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. "However, the paper also points out that in dogs as in most species, cloning for reproductive purposes is unsafe."
The cloned puppy was the lone success from more than 100 dogs implanted (嵌入)with more than 1,000 cloned embryos.
In a news conference in Seoul, the cloning team also condemned(谴责)the reproductive cloning of humans as "unsafe and inefficient." Human reproductive cloning already is banned in South Korea. Other nations, including the United States, are divided on whether to ban just human cloning or cloning of all kinds, including the production of stem cells.

A. cat           B. goat          c. cow          D. dog

60. The cloning of human beings is banned in ______. 
A. South Korea                        B. the United States

The other day I decided to teach my son about the power of small acts of kindness. He had won some lollies(棒棒糖) in a prize machine in the local supermarket, so I asked him if he would like to   46   his prizes with another child. He hesitated(犹豫) for a while because he is a(n)   47   boy, but said yes after I   48   him a bit.

         A father and his daughter were   49  . I approached the father and asked if my son could give his   50   a lolly that he had won. The father looked at me in   51   and was unsure what to say. I   52   explained that I was teaching my son about the power of kindness. Eventually he said it was okay.

           53  , his daughter, who was looking at us sideways(侧向一边地),   54   accept the lolly! At this moment, my son was rather embarrassed(尴尬) and then he   55   to me, “We go to the same   56  , Mum.”

         Rather than say sorry to my son for embarrassing him and give up this   57  , I put a couple of lollies into their shopping bags and   58   them a great day!

         When we left the supermarket, I   59   to my son, “People in the world today are not so open to   60   because their thoughts and opinions have been   61   by the past. However, we can reshape their opinions by   62   small acts of kindness. So don’t be embarrassed. Hey, they may have been standoffish(冷淡的), but I’m sure we left them   63  , moved and inspired in some way. Not only that,   64   the young girl will probably remember you as the boy with a   65   heart when she comes across you at school!”
