Patagonia is a large area covering Argentina and Chile in South America. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world, and it has mountains covered

24、 with snow.Becoming a mountain climbing instructor was a natural choice for me because I have loved the outdoors ever since I was a child. My family and I would often go walking in the mountains. Although I studied business at university, I did not want to work in an office. One day, just after I ha

25、d graduated I saw an advertisement formountain climbing instructors at Southern Way Mountain School. I applied for the job, and because of my previous experience, they hired me.

26、imbing techniques and that I could guide others. Now, seven years later, I am the assistant director of Southern Way Mountain School.My job requires many skills. First of all, I must be a good teacher, as I have to explain mountain climbing techniques and safety rules. Because tourists come to Patag

27、onia from all over the world, language skills are also important. My first language is Spanish, and I am also fluent in English and French. Finally, mountain climbing can be dangerous, so I am trained for emergency situations, such as how to give aid to and rescue someone if they fall or get hurt. I

28、f someone gets hurt, I have to figure out the best way to get them down the mountain without causing them any more pain.Being a mountain climbing instructor is a great job for me.

32、h debate round the world.

On the other hand, many people, including some scientists, disagree and are afraid that, if m

33、ankind toys with nature in this way, we may be on our way to producing a real-life Frankensteinsmonster（ 怪物 ）.Cloning is producing an exact copy of a plant or an animal using its cells. The first mammal to be cloned successfully from an adult cell was Dolly the sheep. She was born in 1996 and died i

34、n early 2003, at a much younger age than normal. When she was born, many people were worried that cloning would lead to more diseases in the animal world. However, in general the scientists were praised for their wonderful scientific advance.Ian Wilmut, the Scottish scientist who created Dolly, is s

35、hocked that some scientists are now considering cloning human beings.Although he researches cloning, his intention has never been to create copies of humans. Instead, he thinks research efforts should concentrate on creating new tissues and organs that can be used to cure diseases like cancer. Howev

36、er, some people believe that cloning humans embryos with the intention of destroying them shows no respect for human life.Even though human cloning is causing a lot of anxiety, it is good news for Faye Wilson, a 41-year-old saleswoman who cannot haveshe says. “Ia baby. “ I am anxious to have a child

38、physician, has declared that he wants to be the first to clone a human being.In China, scientists have focused their efforts on cloning animals, as well as cloned tissues to be used in medical treatment.

Myra wouldntforget her mother s birth

43、day, even if she seldom wrote at other times. Of course Myra was busy. The old lady was proud of Myra.Her husband had been made Mayor, and Myra herself had got a medal for her work.The old lady was eighty today. She had put on her best dress.

45、h of flowers when she came to do the breakfast. Mrs. Grant downstairs had made a cake, and in the afternoon she was going down there to tea.

49、as a piece of paper.

53、。請從以下選項（A、B、C、D、E和F）中選出符合各段意思的小標題， 并在答題紙上將相應選項的標號涂黑。選項中有一項是多余選項。A. Digital PhotographyB. The first photo everC. The first color filmD. Photography for everyoneE. The mass production of photo printsF. A relatively faster way to take photosThe history of photography71. In 1826, Joseph Nicephore Niepce

54、, a Frenchman, created the first true photograph. He used a simple invention- a dark box with a small opening to let the light in. The light creates a picture insidethe box. Niepce was the first person to discover how to make this picture into a photograph that would last. However, the process was v

55、ery slow, taking at least eight hours.72. Louise-Jacques-Mande Daguerre, also a Frenchman, worked as a painter in an ope ra hourse. In the 1830s, he invented a much faster way to take photographs. This new process was still slow and required you to carry chemicals around with you whenever you wanted

56、 to take photographs.73. An Englishman, Henry Talbot, invented a new process in 1840.This new process made it possible to produce several copies of a photograph. He opened a photography factory and started the mass production of prints. While the earlier process produced high-quality photographs, th

57、is new process could produce several copies of a lower quality.74. 1844, George Eastman from the USA invented the very first roll film for cameras. The invention of this film meant that you did not have to carry chemicals around any longer. In 1888, Eastmans f irstKodak camera appeared in the shops with Eastman s famous slogan for Kodak: You press t he button, we do the rest . These early photographs were of course all in black and white. The first colour film appeared in shops in 1907.75. In 1981, the Japanese company
