第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题:每小题2 分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous
sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked
for adventure---those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown
parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now,
however, there are people who look for an immediate pleasure from a dangerous
activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would
consider bungee Jumping(蹦极跳) to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high
place about 200 meters above the ground with an elastic (弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You
fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the
ground. It is said that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee
Jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as dangerous as
bungee Jumping include Jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from
the top of high rocks.
Why
do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists (心理学家) suggest that it is because
life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago,
peoples lives were constantly under danger. They had to go out and hunt for
food, and life was a continuous battle for survival (生存).
Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They
live and work in relatively safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there
are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for
some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee
Jumping.
56. The writer think people take part in
dangerous sports because ____.
A. they want to get
away from modern life
B. they have more free time
C. they like
adventures
D. they are not quite pleased with modern life
57. What is special about bungee Jumping?
A. It is more
dangerous.
B. It is much easier to do.
C. It is hard lo find
a proper place for it. D. It takes
much shorter time to get pleasure.
58. The writer of this passage ____.
A. is a lover of
dangerous activities himself
B. is against dangerous activities
C. introduces an
interesting activity to people
D. doesnt say whether
dangerous activities are good or bad
59. What is mainly talked about in this
passage?
A. People are becoming
crazy.
B. Some kinds of dangerous sports.
C. Why people nowadays
take part in some dangerous sports.
D. Bungee jumping.
B
While your parents advise you to get an education in order
to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean
is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not
so much that you prove an embarrassment (窘迫) to your society.
Get
a high school diploma (文凭) at least. Without that, you will be occupationally (在职业方面) dead unless your name happens
to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully drop
out in grade school.
Get
a college degree, if possible. With a B. A. , you are on the launching pad (火箭发射台). But now you have to start to
put on the brakes (刹车). If you go for a masters degree, make sure it is an M. B. A. ,
which is to bring you returns.
Do you know, for
example, that truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the
average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24,000, while the full professors
managed to earn just $23,030.
A
Ph. D. (哲学博士) is the
highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics
or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or
commercial(商业的) purposes,
if you seek such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim(暗淡的) future. There are more Ph. D. s
unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.
If
you become a doctor of philosophy(哲学) in English or history or political science or languages or worst
of all in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our
national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.
Thousands of Ph. D. s are selling shoes, driving cars. Waiting on table,
and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a
job in some high school or backwater (穷乡僻壤的) college that pays much less than the doorkeeper earns.
You
can consider the level of income to be equal to the level of education only so
far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product
(GNP) , but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.
60. According to the writer, what is the
purpose of the education?
A. To prevent the
people from being a disgrace to society.
B. To educate the
people to become loyal (忠心) citizens.
C. To help the people
take care of themselves.
D. To help the people
meet the nations demands as a source of manpower.
61. Many Ph. D. s are out of job because
____.
A. they are improperly
educated B.
there are fewer jobs in high schools
C. they are of little
commercial value to their society
D. they prefer easier
jobs that make
62.The writer regards education as____ .
A. a way to broaden
ones horizons B. a
course of taking one degree after another
C. a means of
providing job security(安全) and financial(财政的) security and a means
of meeting a countrys demands for qualified man powers
D. no use for ones
job-seeking
63. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Bernard Shaw didnt
finish high schools, nor did Edison.
B. It is unnecessary
to pursue(追求) high
degree.
C. The higher degree you
got, the higher pay you will get.
D. If you are too
well-educated, you will be overeducated for societys demands.
C
Baths and bathing have
long been considered of medical importance to man. In Greece there are the
ruins of a bathtub(浴缸) and water system built over 3,000 years ago. The Romans had warm
public baths. In some of them as many as 3,000 persons could bathe at the same time.
Treating
disease by bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing, or
hydrotherapy(水治疗法), first
became popular in Europe and by the late 1700s also became popular in the
United States.
For
many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for ones health. Ordinary
bathing just to be clean was avoided and perfume (香水) was often used to cover up body
smells!
By
the 1700s doctors began to say that soap and water were good tor health. They
believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly people began to bathe
more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a
bath on Saturday night became common.
In
the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th
and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as The Create
Unwashed. In one American city, for example, a person could only take a
bath every thirty days! That was a law!
Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that
bathing for cleanness is important to health. Doctors know that dirty bodies
increase the chance of diseases. Consequently(因此), in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people
bathe once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential(基本的) to good health.
64. In Greece ____.
A. there were some
public baths large enough to hold 3 000 persons
B. people used to
treat disease by bathing
C. people began to
bathe thousands of years ago
D. people didnt like frequent
bathing
65. The Americans used to be known as
The Great Unwashed because______.
A. the modern medical
bathing first became popular in the U. S.
B. the Americans were
over clean
C. they didnt bath frequently
D. soap was first
produced in the U. S.
66. During the Victorian Age ____.
A. the Americans once
took a bath every thirty days
B. frequent bathing was avoided
C. people used perfume
to cover up body smells after bathing
D. the British people
generally took a bath once a week
67. We can infer that ____ according to the
passage.
A. Italy was the first
country where people took baths in the world
B. the modern medical
bathing first became popular in the United States
C. in the 1600s
people in Europe had begun to take a bath using soap
D. people in Rome once
took baths at the same time
D
Sometime in the next
century, the familiar early-morning newspaper on the front porch will
disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. Youll
get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An
electronic voice will distribute(散布) stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects
the type of news you want. Youll even get to choose the kind of voice you want
to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the
entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer file if you like.
These are among the predictions(预言) from communications experts working on the newspapers of the
future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems,
computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news
and analysis with video(视频) images of news events.
Most
of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they dont
need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance(抵抗) to computer newspapers may be
stronger from within journalism (新闻界). Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present
generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next
generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper
industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoid-able.
Despite
technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with
computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover
because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established(建立) financial interests in the paper industry.
68. The best title of this passage is ____.
A. Computer newspapers
are well liked B.
New communications technology
C. Newspapers are out
of fashion
D. Newspapers of the
future will likely be on computer
69. It might take 30 to 40 years for
computer newspapers to replace the traditional
newspapers
because _______.
A. it is
technologically impossible now
B. computer newspapers are too expensive
C. traditional
newspapers are easier to read
D. there is strong resistance from both
the general population and professional journalists
70. Which of the following is NOT an
advantage of compute newspaper?
A. You can easily save
information for future use. B. They
are very convenient to use.
C. You can get more
information from them quickly.
D. They are cheaper than traditional
newspapers.
71. Journalists are not eager to accept
computer newspapers, because ____.
A. they dont know how
to use computers
B. they think computer
newspapers take too much time to read
C. they have been
trained to write for traditional newspapers
D. they think the new
technology is bad
72. We can infer from the passage that
____.
A. all technologies
are good B.
all technologies will eventually replace old ones
C. new technologies
will eventually replace old ones
D. traditional
newspapers are here to stay for another century
E
Rapid
advances in medical science seem to throw up ethical (道德的) questions almost every day.
In a
dramatic(戏剧性的) medical
break-through, which has been likened to science fiction(小说). Doctors in London have claimed(声称) that it would be possible to
transplant a whole human face by grafting (移植) a dead persons face on to a living one.
Not in some distant future, but now.
The
breakthrough would massively benefit people disfigured (残损) by injury or disease, but
doctors warned that it had deep psychological implications both for the
recipient(容易接受的) of the
new face and the family of the donor (捐赠者).
Anyone living by the slogan: Live fast, die young and leave a pretty
corpse(尸体), may soon
find themselves in hot demand. Unfortunately theyre unlikely to enjoy the
benefits of the attention.
The
prospect(前景) of facial
transplantation, in which a patient would undergo(经历) at least 10 hours of surgery to
receive new skin, bone, lips, chin, ears and nose from a donor, may seem more
akin(类似的) to a
science fiction plot(情节).
In
the film Face Off. John Travolta, playing a special agent and
Nicolas Cage, a master criminal swap (交换) faces using laser(激光) technology. The plot revolves around their new identities (身份).
But the
technique could be misused(滥用) not only by criminals wanting to change their appearance, but even
by ordinary people who might want to trade their looks with a more attractive
face.
It is not a question whether we can do it but should we do it. The
technology is there but we have concerns (担心) whether we should use it. said Peter Butler, a leading
plastic surgeon(整形外科医生) at the
Royal Free Hospital in London, who is working on face transplant.
Surgeons said the biggest hurdle(障碍) would be finding donors and getting relations to consent(同意).
Butler said though the person receiving a face transplant would look
exactly like the donor, the texture(肌理) and tone(色调) of the skin and facial expressions would be the same.
With the face, it would
be a very select group of people who would be eligible(合格的) for this: Those who have
suffered severe facial deformities (伤残或畸形) from burns, cancer patients who have had facial surgery, or people
who have been disfigured(损伤外貌) in accidents could benefit. said Butler.
It comes from a desire to help those who have to live with very
serious deformities. If the reasons behind this are explained fully to the
public, they may overcome their revulsion(厌恶的心情).
But
Butler is only too aware that there remains considerable public dis-quiet. He
has carried out a survey among 120 people. Not one said he would be willing to
donate his facial features.
There would have to be a very full public debate(争论). he said.
73. We can infer that ____.
A. both technically
and psychologically, we can not conduct the face transplant
B. it is absolutely
impossible to carry out the surgery of face transplant
C. it is hard for the
public to accept the fact of face transplant
D. face transplant
will be quite popular in the near future in the world
74. Face-transplanting could be accepted by
the public if____.
A. more donors are
found
B. there are no medical dangers at all
C. the reason to conduct
such surgery that it aims to help those who have suffered
serious deformities is fully explained to the pubic
D. face transplant
surgery is easily conducted
75. What is the best title for this
passage?
A. The future for the
face transplant
B. Hot discussion on face transplant
C. Dilemma (进退两难之境) for science
D. Face transplant--great
breakthrough in medical science

Many
people like to live in large modern cities. however, I hate to live in large
modern cities. Wherever you look its people, people, people. The trains, buses
which leave or arrive every few minutes are packed. The streets are so crowded;
there is hardly any room to move on the pavements(人行道). The cars move as slow as
snails(蜗牛) and it is
not surprising at all to find cars are trapped in the heavy traffic. People in
large modern cities have to struggle for their high living costs such as
housing expense and their childrens education fee. Besides, distinction(区别) of days and nights is lost.
There is always noise air pollution, everywhere. Big cities are places which
breed crime and violence.

In
1869, a new waterway was completed. This new waterway connects the
Mediterranean Sea and Gulf of Suez which is part of the Red Sea. This canal,
which lies in a desert area in northeastern Egypt, is called the Suez Canal.
The Suez Canal runs about two hundred kilometers from the Port of Suez, on the
Gulf of Suez, to the Port of Saida, on the Mediterranean Sea. Some parts of the
canal are very narrow. So the ships cannot pass there at the same time. One
ship must wait in a certain place or in one of the lakes until the canal is
passable again. A French engineer Ferdinard de lesseps, was the man who in
charge of the building of the Suez Canal. Work began in 1859 and continued
until 1869. In honor of the completion of Suez Canal, a famous Italian musician
named Giudeppe Verdi wrote an opera. Aida, which is one of the most
famous operas ever written. There was an international agreement that started
the ships of all nations could use Suez Canal. In peacetime and wartime.
However, this has not always been possible. For example, in 1956, there was a war
among the French, British, Egyptians and Israelis. The canal was reopened in
1957 with the help of the United Nations.
21---75题解析:
21.解析:在口语中,常用how is
it?来询问……的原因,“使得……”,也可以用why not
…,而不能用why
dont you或what do you
think“你觉得……如何?”这是询问对方的意见。答案:D
22.解析:在做这种类型的考题之前,我们需要把它进行复原成陈述形式,此句的陈述形式是:It was from the old worker______ we learned a lot in the car
factory.这样,就能够很清楚地看出此句是一个强调句,而不是定语从句,如果把此题看作是定语从句的话,那么选项C是最大的干扰项。答案:D
23.解析:by the week/day/hour/year是固定表达,而第二个空的意思是“每一个星期”,应该是不定冠词a。答案:C
24.解析:根据句意,她一直忙着准备考试。couldnt have done sth.“(过去)想必不可能做某事”,符合句意。答案:D
25.解析:上文提到的是衣服的各种款式,而下文的意思是说话人一款也不喜欢。所以是否定代词来替代styles,neither指两个中一个也没有;nothing不能指代上文出现的名词;只有none可以指代,因为上句谈到的不仅仅是两种款式。答案:D
26.解析:在but分句后面是一个以if引导的条件状语从句,主句用的是将来时,所以从句就应该是一般现在时;而第一个分句中的if是一个宾语从句的引导词,并不是if条件句。答案:C
27.解析:首先判断出此句是一个含有定语从句的复合句。在定语从句中,谓语动词是stuck to“坚持”,而主句的谓语动词是proves sth. to sb.的结构,sth.在这里就是后面的that从句。答案:C
28.解析:by oneself“单独地”;for oneself“为某人自己”;to oneself“独自地”;of itself“自动地”;此句的意思是:那家公司的门能够自动地开关。答案:D
29.解析:由what引导的主语从句,谓语动词通常用单数,如:What we need is
more time”.但所指的具体内容是复数意义时,谓语动词一般用复数形式。答案:C
30.解析:不定式to let,to
blame表示被动意义。Who is
to blame“这应该责备谁呢?”答案:C
31.解析:此句的意思是:“能把那份工作给我吗?”“真抱歉,这我可说的不算。”beyond ones power“超出某人的能力范围”,此外,还有beyond ones
imagination“超出某人的想象力”,beyond
ones reach“超出某人接触范围,或能力范围”。答案:D
32.解析:此题是一道综合题。选择正确的介词的前提是要理解此句的时态与定语从句的关系。非限制性定语从句的时态是过去完成时,也就确定了介词是by。答案:D
33.解析:第二个说话人在对方说话的时候没有听,而对方说话时,是过去一个具体的时间,因此此句应该用过去进行时,而listen在后面没有宾语的情况下,不加to。答案:C
34.解析:search的一些搭配有:search sb.“搜某人的身”;search s.p.“搜查某地”;search sb./s.p. for…“搜查某人/某地,找……”;in ones search for“寻找,寻求”;in search of“寻求,寻找”。答案:D
35.解析:我们还使用在第22题中谈到的复原法。很明显,此句是一个宾语从句。suggest that从句的谓语动词用should十动词原形;而且我们还能够看who是对宾语从句中的主语提问。因此我们可以假设一个主语,如,Jenny。因此此句可以复原成: I suggest that Jenny
should be sent abroad for further study for MBA in our company.然后就Jenny提问,就可出现选项D的形式。此外,选项C也具有一定的干扰性,此选项是从被动态的角度来设计的,但suggest不能用于句型suggest sb. to do之中。答案:D
36.解析:人们应该是用音乐来表达各自的思想和情感。答案:A
37.解析:音乐是一门表演艺术,另外我们从第三段中“Music is one of the oldest arts.”也能够选择答案art。这就是在完形填空的解题过程中的常用到的技巧:上下文的提示作用。答案:A
38.解析:上文提到的是painting和poetry,下文与之对应的动词应该是display (the painting),publish (the poetry)。答案:B
39.解析:作曲家写出的作品需要音乐家来将之表现出来。works以复数的形式出现意为“作品”。答案:A
40.解析:上文提到的是,作曲家写出的作品需要音乐家来将之表现出来,由此可见音乐演出是表演者和作曲家合作的结果。答案:A
41.解析:作者推测在远古时期,人们打猎时用的工具(这些工具相互碰撞而发出一些声响)可能是最早的乐器的雏形。答案:B
42.解析:在公元一万年前,人们已经发现了制造长笛的方法;而invent意为“发明,创造”指发明的是一些原来不存在的事物。答案:B
43.解析:选项A、B、D几乎都没有什么干扰性;在远古时期,人们使用动物的骨头来制作长笛的可能性最大。答案:C
44.解析:dates from“起始于……,可追溯到……的时候”,在此句中指的是第一篇书面形式的音乐作品大约追溯到公元前2,500年。答案:B
45.解析:classical music又被称为art music,called是过去分词做后置定语。答案:B
46.解析:音乐家应该是根据作曲家写出的作品来表演。答案:D
47.解析:作曲家一定是写出各种各样的音乐作品。答案:D
48.解析:这里指的是音乐发展历史中的各个阶段。答案:A
49.解析:如果我们不能从jazz,
rock music, and music from films这些音乐形式猜测出他们属于流行音乐,在后面的一句紧接着就提到了popular music is…,也能想到这个空应该填popular。答案:D
50.解析:serious music是我们说的严肃音乐即古典音乐,乡村音乐是流行音乐的一种,源于欧洲的爱尔兰、苏格兰、英格兰并受美国乡村音乐的影响。答案:D
51.解析:乡村音乐主要是由美国东南部的白人农村传统民谣演变而来,简单易学。答案:C
52.解析:民间音乐主要是由某个民族的古老的歌谣演化而来的。答案:C
53.解析:hear是及物动词,而listen
to the song才对。答案:D
54.解析:这些民间音乐就是通过口头的形式流传下来。psss on(=pass down)意为“流传”。答案:C
55.解析:此句的意思是在他们的作品中用到了一些民间音乐,这样的人应该是作曲家而不是表现音乐作品的performers。答案:C
56.解析:在本文的最后作者指出了现代的人们参加类似于蹦极等运动的原因,即because life in modern societies has become safe and boring.看来枯燥、平淡的现代生活是现代人寻找刺激,参加各种极限运动的原因。答案:D
57.解析:像蹦极这样的极限运动自然危险,但区别于其他的极限运动,蹦极运动就是能在非常短的时间体会到极大的刺激。答案:D
58.解析:作者在这篇文章中谈到越来越多的人参加类似蹦极的极限运动,并且指出原因,并没有表明自己对这种运动的态度。答案:D
59.解析:此篇文章在开始向读者介绍越来越多的人从事蹦极这项运动,接着介绍区分于其他冒险运动的特点,然后又讲了一些心理学家对此的看法,所以整篇文章都是围绕蹦极这项运动展开的。答案:D
60.解析:在文章的第一段就交代了正确答案。父母所认为的接受教育就是为了提高收入并不是完全正确的。而真正的目的正如文中提到的“What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide
manpower for your society.”答案:D
61.解析:作者在文中指出除了像物理学、化学等少数的专业的高学历在工业或商业领域里能够迅速地转换为经济利润外,其他专业的高学历持有者的前途并不乐观。这自然也是很多的Ph. D. s找不到工作的原因。答案:C
62.解析:选项C全面地反映了文章的主题。本文重点介绍了教育到底要培养什么样的人:首先应该能够自食其力;然后再为社会做出贡献。答案:C
63.解析:从文中举了卡车司机和教授的收入的例子来看选项C正确。答案:C
64.解析:此题是细节信息考查题。根据文中的In Greece there are the ruins of a bathtub and water system built
over 3,000 years ago. 说明在几千年前,希腊人就已经开始洗浴了。答案:C
65.解析:对于这种词语猜测题,我们需要能够联系上下文,就The Great Unwashed而言,我们从下文中的例子中可以猜出由于they didnt bathe frequently/所以才被称作“The Great Unwashed”。答案:C
66.解析:根据During the
Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became
common.可以判断在当时洗浴已经是很平常的事了。答案:D
67.解析:在文中提到了By
the 1700s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health.所以in the 1600s欧洲人就开始使用香皂洗浴并不是确定的;现代的medical
bathing最初是在欧洲流行起来的,在18世纪才开始在美国流行;文中只是提到了The Romans
had warm public baths. In some of them as many as 3,000 persons could bathe at
the same time.而前面还提到了希腊现在还留有3,000多年前修建的the
ruins of a bathtub and water system,可见意大利绝对不是世界上第一个开始洗浴的国家;而在罗马当时还有能够容纳3,000人同时洗浴的公共浴室,所以选项D是比较合理的。答案:D
68.解析:本文的第一段是对下世纪计算机报纸做出了各种预测;第二段讲述科学技术的发展必然使计算机报纸的出现成为可能;第三段说的是还需要几十年的时间来实现这种转变并且阐明原因。文章的标题通常是对文章大意的概括,从这个意义上讲,Newspapers of the future will likely be on Computer更加符合文章的内容。答案:D
69.解析:从文章内容可知现在计算机报纸替代传统的报纸从技术上是完全可能的;说服人们阅读计算机报纸是一个阻力,然而实现计算机报纸的转变的最大的阻力来自新闻界内部,正如文中所述But resistance to computer newspapers maybe stronger from
within journalism(新闻界).”更何况,人们还需要花钱购买计算机也需要一段时间。答案:D
70.解析:文中的第一段中的Youll
get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV.与选项B相符;第一段中的An
electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events表明选项C正确;文中的Save it in
your own personal computer file if you like.表明选项A也是正确的;只有选项D错误。答案:D
71.解析:文中没有提及到选项A、B、D的内容;从Since
it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of
journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation
realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry.来看,传统的报业记者不能够接受computer newspapers的原因还是一个观念的问题,不是一朝一夕就能转变过来的。答案:C
72.解析:从全文的内容来看,作者对computer
newspapers替代traditional
newspapers并没有做出任何评价;但文章第二段的最后一句话Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers
unavoidable.暗示着作者的观点,即new
technologies will eventually replace old ones。答案:C
73.解析:实施人的面部移植手术从技术角度上讲是完全可行的;实施人的面部移植手术的主要阻力正如文中所述:Surgeons said the biggest hurdle would be finding donors and
getting relations to consent.看来找到面部的捐赠者并且人们能够从心理上接受这一事实是最困难的,这也是面部移植手术在目前很难流行的原因。答案:C
74.解析:文中交代的很清楚,大众不能接受面部移植手术主要是因为心理因素的影响。其实实施面部移植手术的主要目的就是使那些面部畸形或有伤的人受益。如果大众能够从这个角度去理解面部移植手术就会从心理上接受它。答案:C
75.解析:face transplant的确是医学上的一大突破性成就,但本文在提出face transplant并且讲述了这种面部移植手术的重要作用后,重点讲述了这项医学成果所面临的一个最重要问题:人们是否能够从心理上接受这种面部移植手术。像克隆人一样,面部移植手术会很难让大众从心理上接受它,尤其是手术的受益人和捐赠人的家人。更何况,这种技术也会被罪犯等坏人所利用,从而危害他人和社会。而且在文章的结尾处提到了Butler做了一个调查,在接受调查的120个人中,没有一个人愿意捐赠其面部组织。从这个意义上讲,这种科学的突破性成就陷入了进退两难的地步。文章既没有讨论面部移植手术的将来也没有讲述关于面部移植手术的讨论。答案:C。
