基础英语 D 综合教程 Book 4 Unit 15 5 The passage can be divided into three parts. Part One: (Paragraph 1) serves as the introduction of the topic of cloning and the thesis of the essay. That is to say it is impossible to apply cloning to humans, today at least. The following questions can be asked: 1) 1) What does the author think of cloning from the technical point of view? What evidence does he give to support it ? 2) 2) What is the main point of the essay? Part Two: (Paragraphs 2-12) This part is the body of the essay, where the author argues against the currently discussed practicality of applying the cloning technique to humans from technical, ethical and legal perspectives. Para. 2-9: refute the reasons for wanting cloned children from ethical or humane viewpoint. Para. 10-11: argues from the technical angle that cloning is not applicable to humans at present. Para. 12: presents the difficulty in and necessity for legal controlling of the use of the technique. Questions to be considered: 1) 1) What would be the similarities and differences between a cloned child and its natural twin? 2) 2) Is it acceptable, according to the author, for sterile couples to have a cloned child? Why or why not ? 3) 3) Why is the introduction of cloned children into hypothetical families unacceptable? 4) 4) What is wrong with the suggestion of cloning a child as a substitute for the one tragically killed? 5) 5) What is the technical hindrance of using the technique to clone humans? 6) 6) What is the author’s point with regard to the legal control of the development and use cloning?

As a public servant, one should be self-disciplined and honest in performing one’s official duties. But nowadays bribery is so widespread. Is it an inevitable evil? What do you think is the root cause? The discussion can be based on the following aspects. Although everyone knows that bribery is illegal, they still take risks to get promotion through this way. When we have enough money we will have the high social status and good living condition. How to avoid bribery? How to deal with bribery? 2. If you were a public servant, what would you do about the bribes that had come upon you? Suppose you were a businessman, do you think you would try bribing an official so that he would act in your interests? As we all know, bribery has become a world-wide problem for all governments. Some people hold the opinion that it is an inevitable evil. I have different opinions. As far as I am concerned, if all the people in the society take up their social responsibility respectively, we can completely solve the problem. Let’s first analyse the cause for such a big problem. Firstly, the legal system of our country is not so perfect. That means, some evil officials can escape the punishment even if they have received bribery. Secondly, the governments’ policy of distribution of wealth is not very ideal. Some public workers are serving people heart and soul, but their monthly income is only at the middle level of the society. They also share similar family loads, and they also need money to support their children. So, their low salary is a major reason for the problem. Thirdly, some public workers do not have sufficient qualities to work for the community. They should be carefully chosen before they begin their jobs in the government. Above all, if everybody in our society can realize these questions and solve them successfully, the problem of bribery can be completely eradicated from our life
