She said that Tyrell got to ride the bike once before he had to come in for dinner and was promised he could ride it again afterward. He left it in the

31、 back yard where they thought it would be safe. However, after dinner, the bike was nowhere to be found. They immediately broke into tears because they knew the thing that he treasured so much was stolen. She called her close friend to find some comfort. The friend called her up later and said tha

32、t she forgot to tell Tyrells mom that she had something for them and asked if it would be OK to bring it over. She, of course, was still crying from the thought that another bike would be impossible to afford and said yes. The friend brought over a huge box, in which there was a brand new bike for T

36、elping others C Going to college has been such a new experience for me. Everything is different from when I was in high school. One thing Ive noticed is that I havent been focusing on my coursework like I planned. I thought I would spend most of my college life studying. But since Ive been in

37、college, about 60 percent of my time has been devoted to social life, while only 40 percent of my time has been devoted to my studies. I never knew I would make so many friends in such a short time. Its been so overwhelming (無(wú)法抵抗的)! Im not saying that making friends is bad, but Im starting to reali

38、ze how much socializing has cut down on the time I should have spent on studying. Needless to say, that has to be changed. Ive realized that I really dont want to spend an extra year or two here just because I slacked off as a freshman. So the first thing Im going to do is to cut down on the amo

39、unt of time I spend socializing. I will also have to say goodbye to a good part of the activities I like to attend. Its really difficult to cut these things out of my life, but I have to choose: I can have a full-time social life and fail college, or I can learn to balance my time between friends

40、and studying and keep good grades. I think Ill stick to that second option! I may be a little strict on myself, but Im here to get an education, not to learn how to socialize more!

44、t child, to their disappointment they became infertile and couldnt have more children. Cloning would enable such a couple to have a second child, perhaps a younger twin to the child they already have. Many couples have difficulty having children, and sometimes it is impossible for couples to have ch

45、ildren because they are infertile. Cloning would allow these couples to have children. It is hard to tell someone that they cannot use cloning to have children when no other possible ways to have children are available. This is one reason why it is difficult to decide whether cloning is moral or no

46、t. The following are some of the reasons why cloning should be allowed. Through cloning, research can progress. We possibly can learn more about cell. We may develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, and many more. Cloning organs f

47、or organ transplants (移植) is one of the major practical reasons that cloning should be allowed. There is always a high demand for organs. Some argue for the cloning of humans to create extra body parts. Others talk of just wanting to clone an organ to replace a faulty organ. Rejuvenation (恢復(fù)青春) is

48、also a key argument for advocates (提倡) of cloning. Some scientists believe that injecting cloned healthy heart cells into damaged heart tissue will lead to healing of the heart. By combining the technology for cloning and the technology for growing human stem cells, conditions like Alzheimers, Parki

49、nsons, and some other ageing disease may be curable. The possibilities are endless and may be left undiscovered if human cloning is forbidden. 13. The underlined word “infertile” in Para. 1 means “____”. A. unable to have children B. too poor to grow crops C. poor in pregnant knowledge D. unabl
