科学家们宣布他们已经克隆出第一个人类胚胎。这已引起了世界范围内的很多争辩。一方面，一些科学家指出假如克隆人类胚胎，你就可以制造出珍贵的人体组织——如骨组织或肺组织——它们可以用来挽救人类的生命。另一方面，包括一些科学家在内的很多人持不同意见，他们担忧人类假如用这种方式戏弄自然，我们可能将制造出一个现实生活中的弗兰肯斯坦怪物。 克隆是用某种植物或动物的细胞制造出一模一样的植物或动物。第一只胜利地用成年动物细胞克隆出的哺乳动物是多利羊。她于1996年被克隆出来，2003年初死亡，寿命要比一般的羊短很多。当她被克隆出来的时候，很多人担忧克隆会导致动物世界中更多的疾病。然而，总体来说，这些科学家还是由于其杰出的科学进展获得了人们的赞誉。IanWilmut,theScottishscientistwhocreatedDolly，isshockedthatsomescientistsarenowconsideringcloninghumanbeings.Althoughheresearchescloning，hisintentionhasneverbeentocreatecopiesofhumans.Instead，hethinksresearcheffortsshouldconcentrateoncreatingnewtissuesandorgansthatcanbeusedtocurediseaseslikecancer.However,somepeoplebelievethatcloninghumanembryoswiththeintentionofdestroyingthemshowsnorespectforhumanlife.Eventhoughhumancloningiscausingalotofanxiety，itisgoodnewsforFayeWilson,a41yearoldsaleswomanwhocannothaveababy.‘Iamanxioustohaveachildofmyown，’shesays.‘Idon'twanttoadoptsomeoneelse'schild—ifIhadthechance,Iwouldhaveaclonedbabyrightnow.’Scottish['skɒtIʃ]adj.苏格兰的Scotn．苏格兰人Scotlandn．苏格兰who引导定语从句，修饰先行词scientist。although引导让步状语从句。intention[In'tenʃn]n．意图，目的；企图insteadadv.代替，反而insteadof代替concentrateon集中(留意力等)在……上that引导定语从句，修饰先行词newtissuesandorgans。withtheintentionof带着……的意图；目的是……shownorespectfor对……不敬重eventhough即使，尽管anxiety[æŋ'zaIətI]n．忧虑，焦虑，担心saleswoman['seIlzwʊmən]n．女售货员，女推销员eventhough引导让步状语从句；a41yearoldsaleswoman是FayeWilson的同位语，who引导定语从句。anxiousadj.渴望的，急迫的beanxioustodosth.渴望做某事ofone'sown属于某人自己的adopt[ə'dɒpt]vt.收养，领养；接受，接受if引导非真实虚拟条件句，表示与现在事实相反的状况。[第3～4段译文]克隆出多利的苏格兰科学家伊恩·威尔莫特对于有些科学家现在正在考虑克隆人类的事实感到特别震动。尽管他讨论克隆，但是他的目的从来就不是制造人类的复制品。相反，他认为克隆讨论应当留意制造用于疾病治疗的新组织和器官，这些新组织和器官能被用来治疗像癌症那样的疾病。但是，有些人认为怀着摧毁人类胚胎的意图来克隆人类胚胎是对人类生命的不敬重。尽管克隆人类正在引起很多担忧，但是这对于不能生育的41岁的女售货员费伊·威尔逊来说却是个好消息。“我渴望有一个我自己的孩子，〞她说，“我不想领养别人的孩子——假如我有这个时机，我会马上要一个克隆婴儿。〞Whilecloninghumanembryosisnotlegalinmanycountries,somescientistsarealreadypushingaheadwithresearchinordertoproduceaclonedhumanbaby.SeverinoAntinori,anItalianphysician，hasdeclaredthathewantstobethefirsttocloneahumanbeing.InChina,scientistshavefocusedtheireffortsoncloninganimals,aswellasclonedtissuestobeusedinmedicaltreatment.Chinahassucceededinproducingclonesofcowsandgoats，andcontinuestoresearchwaysinwhichcloningcanbenefitmankind.whileconj.尽管legal['liːɡl]adj.法律许可的，合法的illegaladj.非法的(＝unlawful)pushaheadwith义无反顾地进行，努力推动inorderto...baby作目的状语。Italian[I'tælIən]adj.意大利的n.意大利人；意大利语Italyn．意大利physician[fI'zIʃn]n．医师；内科医生focus...on...集中……于……aswellas也，又，和……一样succeedvi.胜利succeedindoingsth.胜利地做某事goat[ɡəʊt]n．山羊inwhich引导定语从句，修饰ways,inwhich可换成that或省略不用。benefitvt.有利于，使……受益vi.得到n.利益，福利，好处[第5～6段译文]尽管克隆人类胚胎在很多国家还不合法，但是一些科学家已经在加紧讨论，以制造出克隆的人类婴儿。一位名叫塞韦里诺·安蒂诺里的意大利内科医生宣称他想成为第一个克隆人类的人。在中国，科学家们把精力集中在讨论克隆动物上，以及用于医疗的克隆组织上。中国已经胜利克隆出牛和山羊，并将连续讨论克隆能够造福人类的方式。DearEditorIbelievethathumancloningiswrong.Ifwetoywithnature,wewillhavetodealwith①theconsequences②.Whoknowswhatcouldhappen?Humanlifewouldjustbeeacroptobeharvested③oraproductforsale④.Thehumanraceisusingup⑤theEarth'snaturalwealth⑥.WeshouldbehavingfewerbabiesinordertoreducetheEarth'spopulation,notcloningmore.Ifeelsorryfor⑦theladywhocannothaveababy⑧，butIwouldliketopoint⑨outthattherearemanychildrenintheworldwithnoparentswhowouldbedelightedtohaveamother⑪.PaulineCarter①dealwith处理②consequence['kɒnsIkwəns]n．结果，后果③harvest['haːvIst]vt.&vi.收割(庄稼)n．收获；收成④forsale供出售，待销售⑤useup用完，耗尽⑥naturalwealth自然资源⑦feelsorryfor对……感到圆满⑧who引导定语从句，修饰先行词lady。⑨wouldliketodosth.想要做某事bedelightedtodosth.很情愿做某事；因做某事而感到欢乐⑪that引导宾语从句，作pointout的宾语；其中who引导定语从句，修饰children。[原文译文]友爱的编辑：我认为克隆人类是错误的。假如我们戏弄自然，我们将不得不处理其后果。谁知道会发生什么呢？人类生命将变得像可以收割的庄稼或可供买卖的产品一样。人类正在耗尽地球的自然资源。为了削减地球的人口数量，我们应当少生孩子，而不是克隆出更多的人。我为那位不能生育的女士感到难受，但是我要指出的是世界上有很多没有父母的孩子，假如能有一位妈妈，他们肯定会特别欢乐。波琳·卡特DearEditorIwouldliketoment①onyourarticle，‘Theperfectcopy’.Ithinkthescientificadvancesmentioned②inyourarticle③arefantastic④！Iaminpleteagreementwith⑤humancloning.Afterall⑥，scientistshavebeenchallenging⑦moral⑧ideasforcenturies.Whyshouldwestopthemnow?Onapersonalnote⑨，cloningwouldtotallytransform⑪mylife.Sevenyearsago,my10yearold⑫daughterdiedof⑬heartfailure.Shewasbeautiful,cheerfulandbright.Imisshereverysingleday.IfIhadthechance,Iwouldcloneherimmediately⑭sothatIcouldbewithheragain⑮.ColinJake①mentvi.评论，点评，发表观点，发表意见menton评论……②mentionvt.&n.提及，说起③mentionedinyourarticle是过去分词短语作定语，表被动。④fantasticadj.极好的，吸引人的，奇妙的⑤inagreementwith同意；赞成⑥afterall究竟，终究⑦challengevt.向……挑战⑧moraladj.道德上的，有道德的moralideas道德观念⑨onapersonalnote就我个人而言totallyadv.完全地，彻底地⑪transform[træns'fɔːm]vt.使转变外观或性质(尤指向好的方向)；使转变形态⑫10yearold10岁的，为“数词＋名词＋形容词〞构成的合成形容词，常作前置定语。⑬dieof死于(内因)diefrom死于(外因)⑭if引导虚拟条件句，表示与现在事实相反的状况。⑮sothat在此处引导结果状语从句。[原文译文]友爱的编辑：我想谈谈我对你的?完善的复制?一文的看法。我认为你的文章中提到的科技进步是了不起的！我完全赞同克隆人类。究竟，几个世纪以来，科学家们始终在挑战道德问题。为什么我们现在要阻挡他们呢？就我个人而言，克隆将彻底转变我的生活。7年前，我10岁的女儿死于心脏衰竭。她美丽、欢乐而且聪慧。我每一天都在思念她。假如我有时机，我情愿马上克隆她，那样我就又可以和她在一起了。科林·杰克
