【答案】8.B9.A10.C11.B

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家们多年来一直试图找出如何改变人类的基因，来自美国和韩国的科

学家合作成功地编辑了一个人类胚胎，虽然这看起来是科学上的一大进步，但也有人认为，在伦理上，这

是倒退了一步。我们对人类基因的了解，还需要不断探索。

【8题详解】

词句猜测题。根据第一段中“InAugust,agroupofscientistsfromtheUSAandSouthKoreaworkedtogetherto

successfullyeditahumanembryo（胚胎）andremoveageneticmutation（突变）thatwouldhaveledtoheart

disease,reportedTheGuardian.（据英国《卫报》报道，今年8月，一组来自美国和韩国的科学家合作成功地

编辑了一个人类胚胎，并移除了一个可能导致心脏病的基因突变）”可知，科学家可以编辑并改变人类胚胎

基因。再根据本段划线句子"Scientistshavebeentryinglofigureouthowtoalterthegenesofhumansformany

years,anditlookslikethey'vefinallycracked（破解）Ihecode.（科学家们多年来--直试图找出如何alter人类的

基因，看来他们终于破解了密码）”可知，科学家一直试图“改变”人类的基因，终于破解了密码，在人类

胚胎基因上取得突破，由此可知划线词词义为“改变”。故选B。

【9题详解】

名田节理解题。根据第——段中“InAugust,agroupofscientistsfromtheUSAandSouthKoreaworkedtogetherlo

successfullyeditahumanembryo（胚胎）andremoveageneticmutation（突变）thatwouldhaveledtoheart

disease,reportedTheGuardian.（据英国《卫报》报道，今年8月，一组来自美国和韩国的科学家合作成功地

编辑了一个人类胚胎，并移除了一个可能导致心脏病的基因突变）”以及第二段中“Althoughthiswasthefirst

exampleofanembryo'sgenesbeingchangedsuccessfully,theadvantagesofgeneeditinghavealreadybeentestedin

livingpatients.（尽管这是胚胎基因成功改变的第一个例子，但基因编辑的优势已经在活体患者身上得到了检

验）”可知，人类胚胎基因编辑的第一个成功例子是一个与心脏病有关的基因突变被科学家们移除了。故选

Ao

【10题详解】

细节理解题。根据第三段中uHowever,othersbelievethiscouldleadtoso-calleddesignerbabies,givingparents

theoptiontochooseeverythingfromeyecolortointelligence."Youcouldfindwealthyparentsbuyingthelatest

“upgrades“fortheirchildren,leadingtoevengreaterinequalitythanwealreadylivewith,“MarcyCamovsky,

directorofIheSanFranciscoCenterforGenetics,toldBBCNews.（不过，也有人认为，这可能导致所谓的“设

计师婴儿”，让父母可以选择从眼睛颜色到智力等一切东西。旧金山基因研究中心主任MarcyCamovsky对

英国广播公司（BBC）说：“你可能会发现有钱的父母为他们的孩子购买最新的‘升级版'，导致了比我们

现在所承受的更大的不平等“）”可知，有些人认为人类基因编辑是一种倒退，是他们认为这可能会导致“设

计师婴儿”，加剧社会不平等性。故选C。

【11题详解】

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的"Despitetheprogressscientistshavemade,wedon'tunderstandhumangenes

enoughtogiveallunbornchildrengreatbrainpoweroramazingsingingabilities.（尽管科学家们已经取得了进

步，但我们对人类基因的了解还不足以让所有未出生的孩子拥有强大的智力或惊人的歌唱能力）”以及最后

——段“Soitlookslikeifwewantgoodexamresults,ortoimpresspeoplewithourpianoskills,wellhavetostick

withtheoldfashionedmethodofplainhardwork---atleastfornow.（所以看来，如果我们想取得好的考试成绩，

或者想用我们的钢琴技巧给人们留下深刻的印象，我们就必须坚持用传统的方法，至少现在是这样）”可知，

我们对基因的了解是不充分的，还不足以帮助达到我们想要的效果，也就是要完全了解人类基因还有很长

的路要走，故选B。
