　　【答案解析】

　　本文讲述中国正在竭力克隆濒临绝种的熊猫，这和TexasA&MUniversity的Noah'sArk（诺亚方舟）工程极为相似，都是想拯救濒临灭绝的动物。

　　1.B。

语义理解题。

从第2段内容可知，“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是把濒临灭绝的动物的蛋（卵）、胚胎、精液和DNA储存在液体氮中，如果某一种动物濒临灭绝时，将来可以重现这一动物。

　　2.A。

细节题。

从第6段第1句话Thenucleartransfer（核子移植）ofonespeciestoanotherisnoteasy,andthelackofavailable（capableofbeingused）pandaeggscouldbeamajorproblem可以做出正确判断。

　　3.C。

主旨题。

从文章内容来看，无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功，所以排除A、B项；D项内容明显与文章内容不符，故排除。

所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。

　　4.D。

判断题。

此题B项的干扰性较强，但由于它没有说明是Chinesescientists，所以应排除。

A、C项明显与原文不符。

根据文章第3段第1句可知答案非D莫属。

　　【答案解析】

　　本文主要讲述人们将来可以通过网上看病，医生可以根据病人的生理数据做出远程诊断。

随着第二代因特网和第三代移动手机为将来的远程医疗服务，尤其是宽带网交流价格的下降，远程医疗和医药信息、专家意见和诊断共享将成为家常便饭。

　　1.A。

主旨题。

第2段和第3段的内容，可知最佳答案为A。

　　2.C。

细节题。

从第2段第2句话中的…remotediagnosis（远程诊断）willbebasedonrealphysiologicaldata（生理数据）fromtheactualpatient可以做出正确判断。

　　3.D。

判断题。

网上可以看病并不就是说病人去医院不需要医生，排除A项；通过电话发送病人的信息是可行的，排除B项；现在至少有一个医疗队想用远程医疗来治疗疾病，C项也不对；根据文章最后一句话Withthefallingpriceofbroadbandcommunications,thenewtechnologiesshouldstartanewtimewhentelemedicineandthesharingofmedicalinformation,experts’opinionsanddiagnosisarecommon可以肯定答案是D。
