The first rough draft (草圖) made in 2000. The last of our 23 chromosomes (染色體) was clearly described in 2006. Ever since then, the age of personal genetic testing has been upon us. Since that time, a growing number of private companies have come on the market mostly through the Internet, offering to scan your personal DNA and compare it to some disease markets of the blueprint, called DTC genetic tests.But over the last five years the medical world has been discussing excitedly about whether these DTC tests are helpful or harmful, scientifically believable or completely useless. One of the usual criticisms (批評) is that the science is so new that no one really knows yet how to explain the information.At present they largely remain in the period of research studies, notes Dr. Greg Ferro, special advisor to the director of genomic medicine at the US National Human Genome Research Institute. Ferro says there are two reasons. The first is that when they offer a test, are they really checking what they should check? And then the next is that even if it is believable, does what the test is checking really mean anything to your health?Other worries include the privacy of the results and how your personal genetic information might be used by insurance (保險) companies to refuse your insurance or your boss to dismiss you. Or you could learn information with a huge social or personal impact (沖擊), such as finding out that genetically you cannot possibly be the father of your child. It can also give you risks that may break your life, such as whether you are at high risk of cancer, Parkinson or other terrible diseases.Criticisms over the tests are such that some countries, such as Germany, have banned them. In 2011, some scientists advised the US government that most tests should be done under the guidance of medical professionals (專家). The UK government also expressed its worries about DTC genetic tests and in August 2010 made a set of rules to guide the development of genetic tests.In 2011, three medical researchers published a review article in the International Journal of Clinical Practice, saying that such tests offered more risks than benefits. The most important reason is that the tests might create worries or unreal results or drive unnecessary medical treatments. They also noted some of the genetic information the tests are based on at present is far from being perfect.（1）When did the research of human genes begin? A . In 1987.B . In 1993.C . In 2000.D . In 2006.（2）What is the result of the medical worlds discussion about genetic tests? A . They are both good and bad for people.B . They are useful for some companies.C . They still remain the period of research.D . They have caused a lot of criticisms.（3）The most important fact that causes the worries about genetic tests is that _. A . people are too weak to receive social or personal impactB . we are afraid of face the bad news that will break our lifeC . doing these tests is against the laws in a lot of countries,D . little is known about genes and the information they carry（4）What can we infer from the passage? A . Something must be done to stop genetic tests.B . Discussion about genetic tests is needed among people.C . More research work needs to be done about genetic tests.D . With the help of the government, genetic tests can develop fast.四、 單詞拼寫 (共1題；共1分)20. （1分）He is from France.

Some parents send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the US or Australia, regardless(不管) of how much this costs. Many also want their children to take after-school activities where they either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is, so parents often spend a great deal of money on education. Even poor parents buy a computer for their son or daughter.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give their children is usually very cheap. Parents should know their childrens different skills. They will usually be good in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that todays children lack(缺乏) confidence.The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take tests and how to study well. They are not teaching them the most important skills that can be helpful to their growth. These skills can also build their confidence.Parents can help achieve this by teaching their children practical skills like cooking, sewing and other housework.Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. The result, a well-cooked dinner, will give a child a lot of satisfaction and confidence.An old machine, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child as a toy may make him curious. If he spends hours looking at it, and trying to mend it, your child might
