A
With
only
about
1,000
pandas
left
in
the
world,
China
is
desperately(拼命地)
trying
to
clone
the
animal
and
save
the
endangered
species.
That's
a
move
similar
to
what
a
Texas
A&M
University
researcher
has
been
undertaking(从事，进行)
for
the
past
five
years
in
a
project
called
“Noah's
Ark”．
Dr.
Duane
Kraemer,
a
professor
in
Texas
A&
M's
College
of
Veterinary
Medicine
and
a
pioneer
in
embryo(胚胎)
transfer
work
and
related
procedures(程序),
says
he
salutes(赞扬)
the
Chinese
effort
and
“I
wish
them
all
the
best
success
possible.
It's
a
worthwhile
project,
certainly
not
an
easy
one,
and
it's
very
much
like
what
we're
attempting
here
at
Texas
A&M—to
save
animals
from
extinction.”
Noah's
Ark
is
aimed
at
collecting
eggs,
embryos,
semen(精子)
and
DNA
of
endangered
animals
and
storing
them
in
liquid
nitrogen(氮).
If
certain
species
should
become
extinct,
Kraemer
says
there
would
be
enough
of
the
basic
building
blocks
to
reintroduce
the
species
in
the
future.
It
is
estimated
that
as
many
as
2,000
species
of
mammals,
birds
and
reptiles(爬行动物)
will
become
extinct(灭绝)
over
the
next
100
years.
The
panda,
native
only
to
China,
is
in
danger
of
becoming
extinct
in
the
next
25
years.
This
week,
Chinese
scientists
said
they
grew
an
embryo
by
introducing
cells
from
a
dead
female
panda
into
the
egg
cells
of
a
Japanese
white
rabbit.
They
are
now
trying
to
implant
the
embryo
into
a
host
animal.
The
entire
procedure
could
take
from
three
to
five
years
to
complete.
“The
nuclear
transfer
of
one
species
to
another
is
not
easy,
and
the
lack
of
available
panda
eggs
could
be
a
major
problem，”
Kraemer
believes.“They
will
probably
have
to
do
several
hundred
transfers
to
result
in
one
pregnancy.
It
takes
a
long
time
and
it's
difficult,
but
this
could
be
ground－breaking
science
if
it
works.
They
are
certainly
not
putting
any
live
pandas
at
risk,
so
it
is
worth
the
effort，”
adds
Kraemer,
who
is
one
of
the
leaders
of
the
Missyplicity
Project
at
Texas
A&M，the
first
ever
attempt
at
cloning
a
dog.
“They
are
trying
to
do
something
that's
never
been
done，and
this
is
very
similar
to
our
work
in
Noah's
Ark.
We're
both
trying
to
save
animals
that
face
extinction.
I
certainly
applaud
their
effort
and
there's
a
lot
we
can
learn
from
what
they
are
attempting
to
do.
It's
a
research
that
is
very
much
needed.
”

B
On
June
5,1981
the
Centers
for
Disease
Control
in
Atlanta
U.
S.
announced
the
presence
of
a
rare，infectious
disease
in
five
American
homosexuals
(同性恋).
Soon
doctors
were
finding
similar
cases
all
over
the
country
and
the
world.
The
AIDS
epidemic(流行病)
had
officially
begun.
By
1983
it
was
clear
that
AIDS
had
spread
around
the
world.
More
than
twenty
years
later,
AIDS
has
left
twenty－six
million
dead
and
another
forty
million
infected.
AIDS
has
become
the
worst
medical
disaster
ever
experienced
by
mankind.
Hundreds
of
young
people
between
the
ages
of
20
and
45
died
each
week
during
the
early
years
of
the
U.
S.
AIDS.
More
than
600,000
cases
of
AIDS
have
been
reported
since
1981
in
the
United
States,
and
it
is
estimated
that
there
may
be
as
many
as
900,
000
Americans
infected
with
HIV.
Though
the
rate
of
HIV
infections
continues
to
increase
in
the
United
States,
the
number
of
AIDS
cases
has
fallen
sharply
since
1996,
when
antiretroviral
drugs
came
into
the
market.
Unfortunately，the
AIDS
epidemic
continues
today
in
Africa
and
much
of
Asia，where
antiretroviral
treatment
is
not
available
and
health
care
is
far
from
enough.
AIDS
is
the
fourth
leading
cause
of
death
world－wide，and
the
No.
1
cause
of
death
is
due
to
infectious
disease.
HIV,
the
virus
that
causes
AIDS,
was
first
separated
in
1983
by
a
team
at
the
Pasteur
Institute
in
Paris.
That
discovery
made
it
possible
to
develop
a
test
for
AIDS
and
trace
back
to
victims
who
may
have
died
before
doctors
were
aware
of
the
disease.
However，scientists
still
don't
know
exactly
how
and
where
AIDS
started.
Finding
the
source
of
AIDS
could
be
important
in
developing
a
vaccine(疫苗)and
be
important
in
mapping
the
future
course
of
the
epidemic.
5．It
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage
that
________.
A.
antiretroviral
drugs
will
be
obtained
easily
all
over
the
world
B.
the
best
way
to
stop
AIDS
is
to
develop
a
vaccine
C.
scientists
will
soon
find
a
way
to
cure
AIDS
D.
there
will
be
fewer
AIDS
cases
in
the
world
in
the
future
答案与解析：B　由常识得出，种植疫苗是阻止流行病的最佳途径。
6．Which
areas
are
the
most
worrying
places
where
AIDS
spreads
quickly
today
A.
Africa.
B.
Asia.
C.
The
United
States.
D.
France.
答案与解析：A　当今非洲艾滋病流行最严重，由第三段the
AIDS
epidemic
continues
today
in
Africa
and
much
of
Asia得知。
7．The
number
of
AIDS
cases
has
greatly
decreased
in
the
United
States
due
to
the
fact
________.
A.
a
team
at
the
Pasteur
Institute
in
Paris
succeeded
in
separating
HIV
B.
some
effective
medicine
has
been
invented
C.
scientists
understand
AIDS
better
and
better
D.
the
rate
of
HIV
infections
continues
to
rise
in
the
United
States
答案与解析：B　美国投入市场的这种药阻止了艾滋病的发病率。由第三段．..when
antiretroviral
drugs
came
into
the
market得出。
8．What's
the
importance
of
the
discovery
of
the
source
of
AIDS
A.
It
can
be
used
to
develop
a
test
for
AIDS.
B.
It
can
stop
HIV
forming
AIDS.
C.
It
can
reduce
the
rate
of
death
caused
by
AIDS.
D.

AIDS.
答案与解析：D　发现病原有助于开发疫苗。由最后一段Finding
the
source
of

could
be
important
in
developing
a
vaccine...得出。

did
the
name
of
AIDS
come
into
being
A.
In
1983.
B.
In
1981.
C.
