  Sitting is an art that isn’t getting passed along.People these days feel as though they have to be doing something.If they’re not working, they’re running slowly, or playing tennis or golf, or taking course to improve their minds and bodies-or they’re parked in front of the TV.Sitting in front of the TV isn’t sitting-it’s watching.

  People used to sit a whole lot.You’d walk down the street or drive down the road, and there they’d be, out of the porch(有顶的入口处、门廊), sitting.You could go down to the store and sit on the bench in front in the summer or around the potbellied stove in the winter.There were sitting on benches out on the courthouse lawn(草坪).At the garage there were straight-backed chairs.There among the oil cans and windshield-wiper blades, you could kick back and sit.

  Houses used to have sitting rooms, where the grownups would go after Sunday dinner.Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Aunt Ruby would sit and digest the fried chicken and talked about Aunt Ethel’s gallstones, and how good the preacher did today.Outside, the children would play, and the afternoon would drift by in a comfortable haze(烟雾).

  That sort of thing looks like doing nothing.A recharging battery doesn’t look as if it’s doing anything either.Sitting restores your soul.If you want to enjoy a truly full life, don’t just do something-Sit there.

阅读下面的短文,然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

  Recently there was a major discovery in the scientific research-the mapping of all DNA in a human gene(基因)is complete.Couple of years ago, this seems an impossible task for scientist to accomplish.All this progress in science leads us to believe that the day, when the human being will be cloned, is not far away.Human cloning has always been a topic of argument,in terms of morality or religion.

  Taking a look at why cloning might be beneficial, among many cases, it is arguable that parents who are known to be at risk of passing a genetic limitation to a child could make use of cloning.If the clone was free of genetic limitations.Then the other clone would be as well.The latter could foe inserted in the woman and allowed to ripen to term.Moreover,cloning would enable women, who can't get pregnant, to have children of their own.

  Cloning humans would also mean that organs could be cloned, so it would be a source of perfect transfer organs.This, surely would be greatly beneficial to millions of unfortunate people around the world that are expected to lose their lives due to failure of single(or more)organ(s).It is also arguable that a ban on cloning may be unlawful and would rob people of the right to reproduce and limit the freedom of scientists.

  Arguments against cloning are also on a perfectly practical side.Primarily, I believe that cloning would step in the normal “cycle” of life.There would be a large number of same genes., which reduce the chances of improvement,and, in turn, development-the fundamental reason how living things naturally adapt to the ever-changing environment.Life processes failing to do so might result in untimely disappearance.Furthermore, cloning would make the uniqueness that each one of us possesses disappea.Thus, leading to creation of genetically engineered groups of people for specific purposes and, chances are, that those individuals would be regarded as “objects” rather than people in the society.

  Scientists haven't 100 percent.guaranteed that the first cloned will be normal.Thus this could result in introduction of additional limitations in the human “gene-pool”.

  Regarding such arguable topics in “black or white” approach seems very innocent to me personally.We should rather try to look at all “shades:of it.I believe that cloning is only legal if its purpose is for cloning organs, not humans.Then we could regard this as for “saving life” instead of “creating life” .I believe cloning humans is morally and socially unacceptable.

(1)

Which of the following is true according to the passage?

[  ]

A.

Genetic limitation will be beneficial for some women

B.

A large number of genes will prevent us from developing

C.

Prohibition of cloning might limit the freedom of scientists

D.

First cloned humans might be normal according to scientists

(2)

What's the author's opinion on cloning?

[  ]

A.

Cloning should be entirely banned

B.

Cloning should be used in creating life

C.

Cloning will take away the right to reproduce

D.

Cloning is acceptable if it is used for cloning organs

(3)

Where can you read this article?

[  ]

A.

In a story book.

B.

In a magazine.

C.

In a science fiction

D.

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

  There are a great many professions(职业) on specialization(专业化). You find these professions in engineering, in production and in teaching. But there is an increasing demand for people who are able to take in a great area, people who perhaps do not know too much about any one field. There is, in other words, a demand for people who are able to see the forest rather than the trees, and able to make general judgment. We can call these people “generalists(通才,全才)”. And these “generalists” are particularly needed for positions in government, where it is their jab to see that other people do the work, where they have to plan for other people, to organize other people's work, to begin it and judge it. The specialist(专业人才) understands one field: his concern(兴趣) is with technique and tools. He is a “trained” man. The generalist-and especially the administrator(管理者)-deals with people: his concern is with leadership, with planning, and with direction giving. He is an “educated” man. Very rarely is a specialist able to be an administrator, It is your work to find out, during your training period, into which of the two kinds of jobs you fit.

  Your first job may turn out to be the right job for you. Certainly you should not change jobs constantly. At the same time you must not look upon the first job as the final job; it is a training job, an opportunity to understand yourself and your fitness for being a worker.

1.There is an increasing demand for ________.

[  ]

A.specialists
B.trained people
C.generalists
D.different workers

2.The specialist is ________.

[  ]

A.a man who can see forest rather than the trees

B.a man who has been trained in more than one field

C.a man who is an expert in his field

D.a man whose job is to train other people

3.The generalist is ________.

[  ]

A.a man who is good at organizing other people's work

B.a man who is an “educated” specialist

C.a man who is very strong in society

D.a man who understands more than one field and able to make general judgement

4.During your training period, it is important ________.

[  ]

A.to choose a job that is very easy to be dome

B.to decide whether you are fit to be a specialist or a generalist

C.to find an organization which fits you

D.to try to be a generalist

5.A man's first job ________.

[  ]

A.is never the right job for him

B.is an opportunity to fit himself for his leadership

C.should not be changed

D.should not be regarded as his final job
