The Supreme Court justices ruled states cannot deny gay men and women the same marriage rights. The decision means the 13 states with bans on same-sex marriage are no longer able to enforce them.Same-sex couples “ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law”. Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion: “The Constitution grants them that right.”The decision came after decades oflitigation（诉讼）and activism. It set off celebrations across the US. In affected states including Georgia, Michigan, Ohio and Texas, same-sex couples rushed to wed, while officials in Mississippi and Louisiana said marriages had to wait until procedural issues were addressed, reported the BBC.According to “The New York Times”, the ruling came against the backdrop of fast-moving changes in public opinion in the US, with polls indicating that most Americans now approve of same-sex marriage.US President Barack Obama weled the ruling, saying it “affirms what millions of Americans already believe in their hearts.” “Today,” he said in a press release, “we can say, in no uncertain terms, that we have made our union a little more perfect.”Another win.This was the second time the Supreme Court took up same-sex marriage, according to an article in “Business Insider”. The first time, in June xx, the court made a decision that allowed the US federal government to recognize same-sex marriages in states where they were already legal.But at that time, the Supreme Court declined to rule on the broader question about gay marriage: Is there aconstitutional（宪法的）right to same-sex marriage? The June 26 ruling gave a positive answer to that question.Justice Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion that the Constitution should evolve with societal changes.“The nature of injustice is that we may not always see it in our own times,” he wrote. “The generations that wrote and ratified the “Bill of Rights” and the “FourteenthAmendment（修正案）” did not exactly know the extent of freedom in all of its dimensions, and so they hoped the future generations can protect the right of all persons to enjoy liberty as we learn its meaning.”The FourteenthAmendmentaddresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the law. In the June 26 ruling, the Supreme Court declared that the equal protection clause of theamendmentrequires marriage rights be extended to same-sex couples, too.58. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. The majority of Americans now object to same-sex marriage.B. Gay men and women did not care about the ruling.C. All the US states did not ban same-sex marriage before the ruling.D. The US president believes the country will be less perfect after the ruling.59. It can be inferred that _.A. before June 26, most Americans have doubt about same-sex marriage.B. this is the first time the Americans have got the same-sex marriage right.C. thanks to the amendment, all the Same-sex couples can get married immediately.D. Americans struggled for decades to win the same-sex right.60. Why does the author refer to Justice Kennedys “ the nature of injustice is that we may not always see it in our own times” ?A. The author thinks that it is unfair for same-sex marriage not to have the marriage right.B. The author wants to show that it is difficult for same-sex marriage couple to get the right.C. The author thinks that in our own times we can not see the justice.D. The author shows his dissatisfaction with the delayed approval of the legal same-sex marriage.CIf you could change your childs DNA in the future to protect them against diseases, would you? It could be possible because of technology known as CRISPR-Cas, or just CRISPR.CRISPR involves a piece of RNA, a chemical messenger, designed to work on one part of DNA; it also uses an enzyme (酶) that can take unwanted genes out and put new ones in, according to The Economist. There are other ways of editing DNA, but CRISPR will do it very simply, quickly, and exactly.The uses of CRISPR could mean that cures are developed for everything from Alzheimers to cancer to HIV. By allowing doctors to put just the right cancer-killing genes into a patients immune system, the technology could help greatly.In April scientists in China said they had tried using CRISPR to edit the genomes (基因组) of human embryos. Though the embryos would never turn into humans, this was the first time anyone had ever tried to edit DNA from human beings. With this in mind, the US National Academy of Sciences plans to discuss questions about CRISPRs ethics (伦理问题).For example, CRISPR doesnt work properly yet. As well as cutting the DNA it is looking for, it often cuts other DNA, too. In addition, we currently seem to have too little understanding of what DNA gives people what qualities.There are also moral questions around “playing God”. Of course, medicine already stops natural things from happening for example, it saves people from infections. The opportunities to treat diseases make it hard to say we shouldnt keep going.A harder question is whether it is ever right to edit human germ-line (种系) cells and make changes that are passed on to children. This is banned in 40 countries and restricted in many others. However, CRISPR means that if genes can be edited out, they can also be edited back in. It may be up to us as a society to decide when and where editing the genome is wrong.Also, according to The Economist, gene editing may mean that parents make choices that are not obviously in the best interests of their children: “Deaf parents may prefer their children to be deaf too; parents might want to make their children more intelligent at all costs.”In the end, more research is still needed to see what we can and cant do with CRISPR. “Its still a huge mystery how we work,” Craig Mello, a UMass Medical School biologist and Nobel Prize winner, told The Boston Globe. “Were just trying to figure out this amazingly plicated thing we call life.”41. What is the article mainly about?A. How CRISPR was developed by scientists.B. What we can and cant do with CRISPR.C. Chinese scientists experiment of using CRISPR to edit human embryos.D. The advantages of CRISPR and arguments about its ethics.42. According to the article, the technology of CRISPR _.A. is very safe because it only cuts the DNA it is looking forB. is banned in 42 countries and restricted in many othersC. could cause parents to make unwise choices for their childrenD. could help us discover the link between DNA and the qualities it gives people43. It can be concluded from the article that CRISPR _.A. could be helpful in the treatment of cancer and HIVB. allows scientists to edit genomes for the first timeC. is a technology that uses an enzyme to work on RNA and DNAD. has proven to be the most effective way to protect children against diseases44. What is the authors attitude toward CRISPR?A. Supportive. B. Worried.C. Negative. D. Objective.DMy mother believed you could be anything you wanted to be in America. America was where all my mothers hopes lay. She had e here in 1949 after losing everything in China. But she never looked back with regret. There were so many ways for things to get better.“Of course you can be a prodigy, too,” my mother told me when I was nine. “You can be best at anything.” We didnt immediately pick the right kind of prodigy. At first my mother thought I could be a Chinese Shirley Temple. Wed watch Shirleys old movies on TV as though they were training films. My mother would poke my arm and say, “Ni kan” You watch. And I would see Shirley tapping her feet, or singing a sailor song, or pursing her lips into a very round O while saying, “Oh my goodness.”Soon after my moth
