11、uch power they have until you break them. We lived in a dark shabby house in Bucks. Wood blocks lay over dirt on the floor. That part of England was full of cherry trees. The rice had caught in the bottom of the pot that morning at breakfast and all I could smell was burned rice. Even now when I thi

12、nk of that day I have the taste of burned rice in my mouth. "I'm going to cut down the old cherry tree," my father announced. "You've been saying that for years," said my mother lightly touching the end of her nose. Her nose ran all year long. Her arms rested on the table

13、,a cup of tea placed between her hands, steam rising into the air. "You'll never get round to it." My stomach, balled into a tight little knot, relaxed itself. "Millie's going to cry if you cut it down," said my younger brother, Simon, his eyes bright as a fox. "Sill

14、y Millie, silly Millie." "Hold your noise," said my father, patting Simon on the head. "And put back that butter. That's a week's ration（限额）you've got on your plate." "The war's over," said Simon in a low voice. "We haven't had rationing fo

15、r ages." Simon was right. Even sugar had come off points. However, we still occasionally received food parcels from distant cousins in Canada, My father glared at him and then went on. "Pigs. Burt says he'll come and help me take the tree down if he can have some of the wood." &qu

16、ot;No,"I said springing to my feet. "You can't do it.That's my tree. Always has been. Always will be.I won't let you." Tom took a piece of toast, watching my reaction, My older brother, he knew what the tree meant to me. "Now then, Millie," said my father softeni

20、 embryonic stem cells is debatable because it requires the destruction of live human embryos（胚胎）. Supporters find it easy to minimize the significance of this fact because the embryos are only a few days old - nothing more than "blastocysts（胚泡）” But if it's OK to destroy 5-day-old embryos t

21、o further scientific inquiry, is it OK to destroy embryos that are five weeks old? Five months? Eight months? Science can't answer that question. You don't have to be part of the group respecting life to have concerns about this kind of scientific research. James Thomson, the University of W

22、isconsin biologist has said, "If human embryonic stem cell research does not make you at least a little bit uncomfortable, you have not thought about it enough." However, the president's new order suggests we should not think too much. Recently, supporters of embryonic stem cell resear

23、ch called on president to allow experiments using "surplus (多余的)" fifty frozen embryos in clinics, arguing that they would be got rid of anyway. But Obama didn't limit his new policy to these fertilized eggs（受精卵） On the contrary, he left open the possibility of funding studies using em

24、bryos created specifically so their cells can be harvested. He did, however, reject another option. "We will ensure," he said, "that our govemment never open the door to the use of cloning for human reproduction. It is dangerous, profoundly wrong and has no place in our society, or an

25、y society." But this position is hard to square with his claimed approach. On one hand, the president says his policy is "about letting scientists do their jobs, free from pressure". On the other, he will use pressure to keep them from doing reproductive cloning. What this policy mean

26、s is simple: It may be permissible for scientists to create cloned embryos and kill them. It's not permissible to create cloned embryos and let them live. Their cells may be used for our benefit, but not for their own. It's the policy that is risky not just to days-old human embryos. The res

27、t of us are sure to receive important medical benefits from this research one day, But we may lose something even more important in a moral sense. 25. It's implied in the fourth paragraph that the group respecting life . A. support the research on embryonic stem cells B. don't agree with any

A. the research is against the law B. we may suffer morally for the research C. scientists are not really working without pressure D

31、. the ban on.human cloning is in the long run harmful to human development C Many critics worry about violence on television, mostly out of fear that it stimulates viewers to violent or aggressive acts. Our research, however, indicates that the consequences of experiencing TV's symbolic world of

32、 violence may be much more far-reaching. We have found that people who watch a lot of TV see the real world as more dangerous and frightening than those who watch very little. Heavy viewers are less trustful of their fellow citizens, and more fearful-of the real world. Since most TV "action-adv

33、enture" dramas occur in urban settings, the fear they inspire may contribute to the current flee of the middle class from our cities. The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of law-and-order politicians, While none of us is completely dependent upon televi

34、sion for our view of the world, neither have many of us had the opportunity to observe the reality of police stations, courtrooms, corporate board rooms, or hospital operating rooms. Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representat

35、ive of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to "Marcus Welby, M.D." a popular TV drama series about a doctorduring the first five years of his practice on TV. Violence on television

36、 leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, "Can most people be trusted?" the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose "Can't be too careful." Victims, like criminals, mus

37、t learn their proper roles, and televised violence may perform the teaching function all too well. Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world, we should also be concerned about social reality. Passive acceptance of violence i

38、n the face of injustice may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression. We have found that violence on prime-time network TV develops overstated assumptions about the threat of danger in the real world. Fear is a universal emotion, and easy to exploit. T

39、he overstated sense of risk and insecurity may lead to increasing demands for protection, and .to increasing pressure for the use of force by established authority. Instead of threatening the social order, television may have become our chief instrument of social control.29. What's the passage m

40、ainly about? A. Watching televised violence and aggression. B. Violence on television and social disorder. C. The great influence of watching violence on TV. D. Police protection and election of law-and-order politicians.30. According to the passage, why did "Marcus Welby, M.D." receive so
