Of all the reasons, cloning for medical purposes has the most potential to benefit large numbers of people. How might cloning be used in medicine?
Much of what researchers learn about human disease comes from studying animal models such as mice. Often, animal models are genetically engineered to carry disease-causing mutations (变异) in their genes. Creating these transgenic animals is a time-intensive process that requires trial-and-error and several generations of breeding. Cloning technologies might reduce the time needed to make a transgenic animal model, and the result would be a population of genetically identical animals for study.
Stem cells are the body's building blocks, responsible for developing, maintaining and repairing the body throughout life. As a result, they might be used to repair damaged or diseased organs and tissues. Researchers are currently looking toward cloning as a way to create genetically defined human stem cells for research and medical purposes. To see how this is done, see Creating Stem Cells for Research, a component of the Stem Cells in the Spotlight module.
Farm animals such as cows, sheep and goats are currently being genetically engineered to produce drugs or proteins that are useful in medicine. Just like creating animal models of disease, cloning might be a faster way to produce large herds of genetically engineered animals. Find out more about this research in the feature article Pharming for Farmaceuticals.
Have you seen Jurassic Park? In this feature film, scientists use DNA preserved for tens of millions of years to clone dinosaurs. They find trouble, however, when they realize that the cloned creatures are smarter and fiercer than expected.
In reality? Probably not. It's not likely that dinosaur DNA could survive undamaged for such a long time. However, scientists have tried to clone species that became extinct more recently, using DNA from well-preserved tissue samples.
To clone or not to clone: that is the question. The prospect of cloning humans is highly controversial and raises a number of ethical, legal and social challenges that need to be considered.
Of all the reason of cloning, which do people think is the most benefit to people?

By the passage we can infer that the side effect people would research human disease using animal models is __________.

What function do stem cells play in body?

According to the passage, which statement of the following is not right?

The title of this passage probably is __________.

A recent study in the Chronicle of Higher Education said many foreign students report feeling lonely or unwelcome in Australia. Those feelings are among the reasons why Australia is taking a close look at its international education industry. The government has formed an advisory council to help develop a five-year national strategy for the future of international education in Australia.
But wherever international students go, making friends may not always be easy. The Journal of International and Intercultural Communication recently published a study done in the United States.
Elisabeth Gareis of Baruch College in New York surveyed 454 international students. They were attending four-year colleges and graduate schools in the American South and Northeast.
Students from English-speaking countries and from northern and central Europe were more likely to be happy with their friendships. But 38 percent of the international students said they had no close friends in the United States.
And half of the students from East Asia said they were unhappy with the number of American friends they had. Professor Gareis says 30 percent said they wished their friendships could be deeper and more meaningful.
Elisabeth Gareis said, "Students from East Asia have cultures that are different on many levels from the culture in the United States. But then there's also language problems, and maybe some social skills, such as small talk, that are possibly not as important in their native countries, where it's not as important to initiate friendships with small talk."
She says many East Asian students blamed themselves for their limited friendships with Americans.
VOA's Student Union blogger Jessica Stahl did her own survey to find out how American students and foreign students relate to each other. More than 100 students, about half of them American, answered her online questions.
Half of the international students and 60 percent of the Americans said they related as well or better to the other group than to their own group.
Professor Gareis says students who make friends from their host country return home happier with their experience.
What can be the best title for the passage?

According to the text, what makes Australia examine its international industry?

Which may NOT be the reason why many students from East Asia were unhappy with their friendships?

The word "where" in Paragraph 6 probably refers to __________.

Where do you think this article can be seen?

Have you ever seen a Kunqu Opera, or heard the beautiful sound of a Guqin? These two traditional Chinese art forms are both included in UNESCO's list of "oral and intangible heritage of humanity" (人类口头和非物质文化遗产). This year, China has selected another art form to compete to join this special group. Muqam  (木卡姆), the traditional folk music of Xinjiang's Uygure people will be considered alongside other countries' entries. "The intangible cultural heritage of different countries and different people should be treasured by the world," said Wang Wenzhang, president of the Chinese Academy of Arts.
Known as the "mother of Uygur music", Muqam has a long history. Some scholars believe that its origins can be traced back to the "Great Western Region Melody". This developed during the Han (206 BC—220 AD) and Tang (618 AD—907) dynasties and enjoyed great popularity in central China. In the mid-16th century, the Silk Road connected China and Europe. Xinjiang was at the center of the cultural exchange between east and west. Muqam music was spread across Uygur-populated areas during that time. The queen of Yarkant Kingdom (叶尔羌汗国), whose name was Amannisahan, was a poet and musician. She devoted all her efforts to collecting and sorting Muqam music. With the help of other experts she finally worked out 12 pieces of music, which became the famous Twelve Muqam. When Amannisahan was doing her work, she did not seek materials from the fully developed Arabian and Persian music. Instead, she exploited the rich resources of Uygur folk music that spread across the north and the south of the Tianshan Mountains. As a result, the Twelve Muqam has a strong Uygur flavour.
The Twelve Muqam includes more than 340 classical songs, folk songs, love songs and pieces of dance music and instrumental music. The whole set takes 24 hours to play. Ever since it spread among the Uygurs, the Twelve Muqam has played an important part in their lives. They sing songs and dance to the music. Kurban Mamut, editor-in-chief of a Uygur language magazine, says that he often listened to the Twelve Muqam when he was a child. "The Twelve Muqam helps bring moral ideas to the Uygur children, and gives them a noble and strong personality," he said. After New China was founded, the local government of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region made every effort to preserve the Twelve Muqam. In 1960, two volumes of the Twelve Muqam were published. This finally protected this oral cultural heritage. Over the past two decades, local Xinjinang cultural institutions have supported research projects. A number of books about the Twelve Muqam have been published. CDs, VCDs, and DVDs of the Twelve Muqam have also been made.
How many traditional Chinese art forms have been included in UNESCO's list of "oral and intangible heritage of humanity" by now?

According to the article, Muqam dates back to __________.

Who do you think it was that made the greatest contribution to the spread of Muqam?

Everything in the universe is made up of atoms, the universe is full of sound and we being part of the universe are therefore full of sound. The world of music and sound has no space and no time or limitations. Sound is one of the initial senses to awaken in the womb (子宫). It brings the intricate (错综复杂的) and awe-inspiring world to us while we live, and is the last sense to leave us as we die.
Everything has a frequency—even our feelings, words and actions carry a frequency. In today's society, we are constantly exposed to an ocean of "foreign" frequencies such as noise pollution, television, radio and so on, which negatively affect our own natural resonance (共振), including our immune system. It is then vital for us to regularly rebalance our energy field in order to remain in good health.
We are responsible for everything we listen to. The power of music and sound can produce beauty and inspiration, or can be destructive, violent and painful. Listening to highly dramatic classical music-especially the kind full of trilling "peaks and valleys"—can cause the brain to arouse the release of endorphins, chemicals that lead to pleasurable feelings. However listening to relaxing music and imagining calm scenes is one of the best ways to ward of migraines (偏头疼) and stress. That's why we see such positive effects from calm music.
The "Mozart effect" studies indicated that one area of cognitive processing increased after listening to this music for a period of time. However, this does lead to speculation that listening to certain types of music will develop and improve mental function. Many people express an increased ability to concentrate when certain background music is played.
Music has nonverbal imaginative, structural and emotional qualities that can inspire and lift a person into a higher reality of health and happiness. Sound stimulates all of the senses and involves a person at many levels. Music and sound therapy is broadly use in the treatment of people of all ages who have problems of a mental, physical, and emotional nature. Listening to and making music reduce heart rate and blood pressures, stimulates various types of brain activity, and provide people with a sense of calmness, safety and even security.
According to the passage we can know that __________.

In order to remain in good healthy state, we should __________.

The underlined word in the forth paragraph means __________.

The statements to music are right except __________.

In the therapy, music and sound can treat many problems except __________.

More than half of ultra-rich Americans have not revealed their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed on Tuesday.
Taking the pulse nationwide of the rich with $3 million or more in assets a survey by US Trust released by Bank of America found that "surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to either their children or charity."
Many of the 457 people surveyed are Baby Boomers and are self-made, first-generation rich and have "a distinct generational mindset." Fifty-two percent of parents surveyed have not fully disclosed their wealth to their children, and 15 percent have disclosed nothing about the family wealth. One in three parents said they had never thought to do it, while 24 percent said they feared their children would become lazy. Twenty percent said they would make poor decisions or squander money, and 13 percent worried other people would take advantage of their children. Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children will be able to handle any inheritance they plan to leave them.
"There is an expectation about the wealthy that they have an implicit, sacred responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation, and this understanding has shaped expectations about the coming wave of intergenerational wealth transfer," said Sallie Krawcheck, president of Bank of America Global Wealth and Investment Management.
"Our research, however, uncovered a distinct generational mindset that reflects changing views about what retirement means and an evolving sense of what one generation owes the next."
