快速閱讀 What are genetically modified GM foods?
Man has been “genetically modifying” everything from food to dogs for many centuries;but in the past, the only tool has beenselective breeding.For example, if you wanted to create a breed of corn with resistance to a certain fungus, you would plant a plot of corn and see how individual plants did with the fungus.Then you would take seeds from the plants that did well, plant them, look at their performance against the fungus… and so on over the years until you had created a strain of corn plant that had very high resistance to the fungus in question.Using selective breeding techniques, people have created everything from variegated roses to giant pumpkins to strains of wheat with twice the yield and very high disease tolerance.In the same way, you can take chickens, analyze their eggs and find chickens with eggs that contain less cholesterol.Then you can breed them to create a strain of low-cholesterol chickens.You can select on any detectable trait and selectively breed members of the species that do well on that trait.Genetic engineering techniques now allow scientists to insert specific genes into a plant or animal without having to go through the trial-and-error process of selective breeding.Genetic engineering is therefore extremely rapid compared to selective breeding.With genetic engineering, you can also cross species very easily(for example, you can create a plant that produces human insulin).You can read the article How Cells Work to learn about DNA, genes and gene splicing.The techniques are now standard and genes can be spliced very easily.There are a variety of techniques used to modify plants and animals through genetic engineering.For example, there is a widely used herbicide called Roundup, made by Monsanto.Roundup kills any plant that it touches.Monsanto has genetically modified soybeans and other crop plants to create “Roundup Ready” strains that are not affected by Roundup.By planting Roundup Ready seeds, a farmer can control weeds by spraying Roundup right over the crop.The crop completely ignores the herbicide, but the weeds are eliminated.Roundup Ready seeds reduce production costs and increase yield, so food becomes less expensive.Other scientists have inserted genes that produce a natural insecticide into corn plants to eliminate damage from corn borers, and a variety of anti-fungal genes can be inserted as well.The list goes on and on--there really is no limit to what can be done.轉(zhuǎn)基因轉(zhuǎn)基因食品是什么?
男子“基因改造”從食物到許多世紀(jì)的狗;但在過去,唯一的工具beenselective繁殖。例如,如果你想創(chuàng)建一個(gè)玉米品種抗某種真菌,你會開辟出一塊玉米,看看株真菌。然后你將種子的植物表現(xiàn)不錯,工廠,看看他們的表現(xiàn)對真菌…等等這些年來,直到您已經(jīng)創(chuàng)建了一個(gè)應(yīng)變非常高的玉米植株抵抗真菌的問題。
通過選擇育種技術(shù),人們創(chuàng)造了一切,從玫瑰組合巨型南瓜品種的小麥產(chǎn)量和非常高的疾病公差的兩倍。同樣地,你可以把雞,分析他們的蛋和雞雞蛋含有膽固醇。然后你就可以繁殖出的低膽固醇雞。你可以選擇在任何檢測特征和選擇性繁殖的物種成員做好特質(zhì)。
基因工程技術(shù)現(xiàn)在允許科學(xué)家將特定基因插入植物或動物,而無需通過選擇育種的試錯過程。因此,基因工程是極其快速的選擇育種,基因工程相比,你也可以很輕易跨越物種(例如,您可以創(chuàng)建一個(gè)工廠,生產(chǎn)人胰島素)。你可以閱讀這篇文章細(xì)胞如何工作了解DNA,基因和基因剪接。現(xiàn)在的技術(shù)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和基因很容易可以拼接。
有各種各樣的方法來修改通過基因工程植物和動物。例如,有一個(gè)廣泛使用的除草劑叫農(nóng)達(dá),由孟山都。綜述殺死任何植物,它觸動。孟山都轉(zhuǎn)基因大豆和其他農(nóng)作物創(chuàng)造“農(nóng)達(dá)”壓力,不受綜述。通過種植抗農(nóng)達(dá)種子,農(nóng)民可以通過噴灑控制雜草集攏在作物。作物完全忽略了除草劑,但雜草消除。抗農(nóng)達(dá)種子降低生產(chǎn)成本,提高產(chǎn)量,所以食物變得更便宜。其他科學(xué)家基因產(chǎn)生天然殺蟲劑插入玉米植物從玉米螟蟲,消除損傷和各種抗真菌基因也可以插入。這樣的例子不勝枚舉,——實(shí)際上是沒有限制的可以做什么。

I.Lesson 3
Background information
A.About the author
Richard MoranMore Crime and Less Punishment
Richard Moran is a criminologist and a leading expert on the insanity defense,capital punishment, and the history of the electric chair.The author of numerous
articles and reviews, Moran has also written articles for the Washington Post,Christian Science Monitor, New York Times, and Newsweek.The Executioner's Current
It is the story of how the electric chair developed out of an effort by one nineteenth-century
electric company to discredit the other.EdisonEdison, Thomas Alva(1847-1931)a US inventor who made over 1300 electrical inventions, including the , the record player, and equipment for the cinema.He is most famous for inventing the(=a glass container with a thin wire inside, which produces light by using electricity).When Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse(1846-1914, 美國發(fā)明家)were building the first power plants in the country, electric light was a bizarre new technology that few people understood and many people feared.Adding to the confusion were the two competitors' attempts to promote their own systems and discredit the other.When New York State began considering electrocution as a method of capital punishment, Edison recommended Westinghouse's alternating current for the unseemly task.Westinghouse, not wanting the negative stigma associated with his system, fought back, and a truly well intentioned government effort to find a more humane method of execution became a courtroom battle for commercial supremacy between two competing pioneers.Moran's account is broad, covering the electric power struggle between Edison and Westinghouse, the trial and execution of the first man to die in the electric chair, and the history of the capital punishment debate in the U.S.Edison's popularity as a cultural hero lends appeal to the entertaining drama of the power companies' competition, and the surprisingly colorful history of the electric chair makes for fascinating reading.

08/09學(xué)年教學(xué)與管理安排
按照外語學(xué)院大學(xué)英語教研室期中教學(xué)、教務(wù)會議精神,和近期各學(xué)院及師生對教學(xué)反映。我們對大學(xué)英語08/09學(xué)年教學(xué)與管理作如下安排:
1、06級“英語視聽說”教材使用《新世紀(jì)大學(xué)英語視聽說》(上海外語教育出版社)第3、4冊。上課地點(diǎn):各語言實(shí)驗(yàn)室。
2、在07級“綜合英語”和“口語”課程中增加授課內(nèi)容:“翻譯和寫作”;翻譯教材使用毛榮貴教授編寫的《新世紀(jì)大學(xué)英漢翻譯教程》(上海交通大學(xué)出版社)。每周課型設(shè)計(jì):“綜合英語”2節(jié)+“口語+翻譯和寫作”2節(jié)。
3、08年級普通本科(除音樂、體育、美術(shù)類本科外)教學(xué)環(huán)節(jié)細(xì)述如下:
1)、普通本科繼續(xù)實(shí)施網(wǎng)絡(luò)教學(xué)。對新生入學(xué)時(shí)進(jìn)行分班教學(xué),分A、B、C三種類型。分班原則:浙江省考生按照高考分?jǐn)?shù)分班,外省新生按照A班占1/4,B班占1/2,C班占1/4的比例,將學(xué)生劃入各模塊教學(xué)班。所用教材與07級相同。不過教學(xué)計(jì)劃應(yīng)重新編寫,選擇合適的章節(jié)授課。期末統(tǒng)一出卷。
2)、在“口語”課中增加與專業(yè)和時(shí)事相關(guān)的口語練習(xí)內(nèi)容,任課教師協(xié)作編寫口語練習(xí)教材,教學(xué)過程應(yīng)體現(xiàn)地方性綜合大學(xué)的特點(diǎn)。同時(shí)落實(shí)課內(nèi)“快速閱讀”練習(xí)。
3)、音樂、體育、美術(shù)類本科學(xué)生按照傳統(tǒng)行政班級教學(xué),每周4節(jié)課。教材使用上海外語教育出版社全新版大學(xué)英語預(yù)備級(底起點(diǎn)+高起點(diǎn))和綜合教程第一、二冊全套(綜合英語、閱讀、視聽說、快速閱讀)。期末統(tǒng)一出卷。
4)、08專生本的班級按照教學(xué)行政班級,不參加網(wǎng)絡(luò)模塊教學(xué)班。教材使用大學(xué)英語全新版第3、4冊的“綜合英語”、“閱讀”、“視聽說”、“快速閱讀”。每周4節(jié)課。時(shí)間1學(xué)年,期末單獨(dú)出卷。
5)08學(xué)前專科、08體育高職按照教學(xué)行政班級教學(xué)教材使用大學(xué)英語全新版預(yù)備級(底起點(diǎn)+高起點(diǎn))“綜合英語”、“閱讀”、“視聽說”、“快速閱讀”。每周4節(jié)課。時(shí)間1學(xué)年,期末單獨(dú)出卷。
