课件24张PPT。ReadingScience Versus NatureAs we all know , animal
cloning has been the
concern of science
community and also the
subject of scientific
experiments for years. What uses does it have?Another use?First reading—Main idea
Refer to the reading passage and find out the main idea. We will be given information about how cloning is being researched and the different attitudes towards it.Part A on P42Second reading—
Understanding scientific terms
Circle the unfamiliar words or things you do not understand.Scientific terms
1.human embryo
2.produce valuable tissues and organs
3.create copies of humans
4.create new tissues and organs
5. be genetically related to
6.deliver a cloned human baby
7.stem cells 8. die of heart failure
9.interfere with nature 10. an adult cellSome sentencesA recent announcement by scientists that they have successfully cloned the first human embryo has caused much debate and has shocked many people around the world.
(Lines 1-3)On the other hand, many people , Including some scientists, disagree and fear that if mankind interferes with nature in this way, they may be on their way to producing a real-life Frankenstein’s monster. (Lines5-7)I feel sorry for the lady who cannot have a baby, but I would like to point out that there are many children in the world with no parents, who would be delighted to have a mother. (Lines 43-45)Third reading—
Detailed information
Read only the article carefully, and finish the following exercises: Answer the following questions: What are the different attitudes
towards the success of cloning a
human cell?(2) What does Ian Wilmut, the Scottish
scientist who created Dolly, intend
to use cloning for?(3) Who are the three persons in the
article related to cloning?1. What are the different attitudes towards the success of cloning a human embryo?
On the one hand__________________________________
On the other hand____________________________
Some people consider that____________________(valuable tissues and organs can be
produced and be used to save human lives)(human beings may be on the way to
producing a real-life monster)(cloning human embryos
with the intention to destroy
them shows no respect for
human life. ) He thinks research efforts should be concentrated on creating new tissues and organs that could eventually be used to cure diseases like cancer.(2) What does Ian Wilmut, the Scottish
scientist who created Dolly, intend
to use cloning for?1._____________, an Italian doctor, who is one of the leaders in the __ ___ research. 2._________, a woman of 41 years old who can not________. 3. _________, a Scottish scientist who
created _______ and was ________ when hearing some scientists were
considering cloning ___________.(3) Who are the three persons in the
article related to cloning? Severine AntinoriDollycloningFaye Wilson

judge whether the statements are true or false:Pauline Carter thinks:
1. The nature will pay back if we interfere with nature
2. We should clone fewer babies to reduce Earth’s population.
3. The lady who cannot have a baby can adopt an orphan, but not have a cloned baby. TFTColine Jake thinks:
1. The news that the first human embryo has been cloned successfully is very terrible.
2. Scientists have succeeded in challenging questions of morality.
3. Human cloning is a good way to save her daughter who has died. FFFListen to the tape and find the reasons why people are pro- or anti-cloning in the article and lettersListening 1. Find the reasons why people are pro- or anti-cloning

Go through the reading strategy, and
find out how to work out the meaning of these scientific terms.Begin by reading the first and last paragraphs
for an idea of what the article is about.Circle any words you do not now. Question things you do not understand or that do not appear to make senseRead through the article a few times, and make sense of the scientific terms upon further readings.If possible, do you want
another person to be
exactly the same as you? ???DiscussionHold a debate about whether it would be a good idea to clone humans some day. anti-cloning views pro-cloning views VSRead another passage about stem cell research on Page111.HomeworkGood bye!
