Tony: These days, the word "clone" has been seen very often in the newspapers. Do you know
          its meaning?
Lana: I read a report. It said that Dr. Ian Wilmut successfully cloned a lamb named Dolly from
          a grown-up sheep. So people call him the "father" of Dolly.
Tony: In fact, the word "clone" means to produce the "same" animal by taking cells from a
          grown-up one. I think, if we know how to do cloning, we need only to keep a small number
         of sheep, cows or horses.
Lana: What's more, these days some people even want to clone humans. They have asked: Can
          we clone ourselves?
Tony: It seems interesting. But do you think it possible to do that?
Lana: No, impossible! First, I think we cannot clone a dead person, because the cells in his body
          are dead already.
Tony: Then can we clone a living person?
Lana: Again no! You might clone yourself one after another, but it is only a copy, not a real you.
          It is only something, not a "human".
Tony: Well, you mean that it is not a real human.
Lana: True enough! I think Dr. Wilmut would most like to make better animals, and it has nothing
          to do with human cloning.
1. The word "clone" means ___________.
A. to give birth to a new life  
B. to make a new thing according to the sample
C. to make a new animal      
D. to make a new living thing by taking cells from an old one
2. Dolly was the name of _________.
A. the father of a sheep            
B. a famous scientist
C. a sheep that was cloned          
D. a grown-up sheep
3. Lana says Dr. Ian Wilmut is the "father" of Dolly. Here, she means _______.
A. Dr. Ian Wilmut gave Dolly a new life
B. Dr. Ian Wilmut was the first man to clone a sheep in his lab
C. Dr. Ian Wilmut takes care of Dolly like a father
D. Dr. Ian Wilmut has a daughter whose name is Dolly
4. What are Tony and Lana talking about? They are talking about _________.
A. a newspaper    
B. sheep      
C. Cloning technique    
D. humans
5. According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Scientists have successfully cloned humans.
B. Dr. Wilmut likes to do human cloning.
C. Cloned animals are better than grown-up ones.
D. Lana thinks humans shouldn't be cloned.

閱讀下列短文回答問題：
The most unusual museum in London is the Science Museum. In most museums, there’s no shouting and no running, and you aren’t allowed to touch the exhibits. But the Science Museum is different… because it’s noisy ! People talk about what they can see and do there, and some of the machines are noisy as well. Visiting the Science Museum is fun and it’s a great way to learn about science because you can work things out and try out ideas.
When I visit the Science Museum, I go to the Launch Pad. This is my favorite room because you can do physics experiments. For example, if you want to fill a bag with falling sand, you have to move a kind of truck on wheels into the correct position. I also go to the Rocket Show. You can learn how we travel into space and back again.
Then I go upstairs to the Human and Nature room. You can compare your speed with animals there. You hear a noise and push a button. If you aren’t fast enough, the lion catches you! I’m faster than all my friends, but the lion still catches me.
You can do a lot of things in this museum, but you have to obey some rules as well. For example, you mustn’t take photos of the exhibits in the museum. But you can buy postcards of them in the museum shops.
Above all, the Science Museum is free. That means you can drop in for a few minutes or you can stay as long as you like – it’s open every day, from 10 am to 6 pm. So if you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum. It’s my favorite museum in the whole world.
【小題1】Where does Tony go first when he visits the Science Museum?
【小題2】What can you try out in the Human and Nature room?
【小題3】How much does it cost to go in the Science Museum?
【小題4】How long can you stay at the Science Museum ?
【小題5】What does the writer think of the Science Museum?
