that describe cloning.most of what you see in these movies is false.what you dont know is that cloning could be dangerous，to the clone and to our society as a whole.its immoral to have a human clone.what about identity？humans are promised the right to their own personality.what would happen if we ignore those rights by giving them someone elses genetic identity？true，personality is not fixed in genetic fault of the cloned.also，there is a large power struggle here.cloning means a degree of power and control over another persons physical identity and that ignores their rights and their only personality.the person doing the cloning would have more power than any parent would have.cloning would also deal with killing embryons(胚胎)you might not have known，but dolly，the sheep that was cloned in 1996，was one of over 200 sheep embryos and hers was the only embryo that survived.the rest died or were thrown away.imagine if the failure rate was that high when we started to clone humans.more than 200 embryos，the start of 200 human beings，would die for the sake of just one embryo that would have the same dna as someone else.cloning someone，at this present time，would be extremely dangerous to the birth mother and the clone.in studies done on cows,4 out of 12 birth mothers died.there is a very high failure rate，which is showed in the cloning of dolly.even if you had a few good embryos，failures have been noticeable in animal tests.so，should we work ahead in the world of cloning？i say no.the risks are greater than the benefits.its dangerous to the clone and to the birth mother.we would be killing human lives in the process.it would also be a violation(侵害) of the clones right to its own genetic identity and personality.1 the author thinks human cloning is wrong mainly for _reasons.a2 b3 c4 d52 according to the article，what is the authors opinion about identity?acloning itself gives parents great power over identity.bpeoples identity is completely determined by their genes.cgovernments have the rights to confirm peoples identities.dcloning may prevent people from possessing their identity.3 from paragraph 4 we can infer that_.ahuman cloning is much more difficult than animal cloningbdolly is the most successful one among 200 sheep embryosccloning means running the risk of wasting too much effortdnumbers of baby animals are likely to be created by cloning4 why does the author mention some movies in the first paragraph?ato introduce the topic of the article.bto present his idea about the movies.cto state the conclusion first.dto make the article unusual.5 what is the authors attitude toward cloning?ahe is in favor of it. bhe is against it.che takes it for granteddthe passage doesnt say.bup to now，some scientists have suggested that cloning existing people might be ethically acceptable in some cases.one possibility is generating replacement for a dying relative.all such possibilities，however，raise the concern that the clone would be treated as less than a complete individual，because he or she would likely suffer from limitations and expectations based on the familys knowledge of the genetic “twin”those expectations might be false，because human personality is only partly determined by genes.the clone of an extrovert(性格外向的人)could have a quite different way of behavior.clones of athletes，movie stars，or scientists might well choose different careers because of chance events in early life.some people have also pointed out that couples in which one member is infertile(不生育)might choose to make a copy of one or the other partner.but society ought to be concerned that a couple might not treat naturally a child who is a copy of just one of them.because other methods are available for the treatment of all known types of infertility，and the traditional choice seems more appropriate.none of the suggested uses of cloning for making copies of existing people is ethically acceptable to my way of thinking，because they are not in the interests of the resulting child.it should go without saying that i am strongly opposed to allowing cloned human embryos to develop so that they can be tissue donors.in spite of this，it seems clear that cloning from cultured(人工培育的) cells will offer important medical opportunities.predictions about new technologies are often wrong；societal attitudes change；unexpected developments occur.time will tell.but biomedical researchers looking into the potential of cloning now have plenty to do.6 towards cloning an existing person，what concern does the author show?athe clone created is unlikely to fulfill your expectations.bthe clone created is ethically unacceptable.cthe clone created will be mistreated.dthe clone created will have one defect or another.7 from the text we know that a clone will _.abe partly similar in personality to the person it is created frombshare the same characteristics with the person it is created fromcchoose the same career as the person it is created fromdbehave in the same way as the person it is created from8 according to the passage，which of the following is true?aones personality is determined by neither their genes nor the environment
