43、ollution and water pollution are harmful to peoples health. However, not all the persons know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and that is harmful to human health, too.People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf. Today, however, scientists believe that 10 percent of wo

44、rkers in Britain are being deafened by the noise where they work. Many of the workers who print newspapers and books, and who weave（織）cloth become deaf.

49、ng is suggested as a means of bringing back a relative, usually a child, killed tragically. Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child. Here lies the difficulty, for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a

50、return of the dead one. Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however, that the copy would develop quite differently. Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with su

51、ch unnatural expectations?Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams. Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star, baseball player or scientist, depending on their interest. But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance(

52、遺傳), conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original. What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the baseball player turns to acting? Success also depends upon fortune. What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dr

53、eams of the parents simply because of bad luck?Every child should be wanted for itself, as an individual. In making a copy of oneself or some famous person, a parent is deliberately（深思熟慮地）specifying(詳細(xì)說(shuō)明) the way he or she wishes that child to develop. In recent years, particularly in the U.S., much

54、 importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish. So I suggest there is a greater need to consider the interests of the child and to reject these proposed uses of cloning.68. What happens to parents in cloning a lost child?A. Parents expect too much from the copy. B. Parents may get a quite different copy.C. Parents are sure to have an identical copy. D. Parents lose the talents o
