In recent years a new farming revolution has begun, one that involves the【C1】______of life at a fundamental level—the gene. The study of genetics has 【C2】______ a new industry called biotechnology. As the name suggest, it【C3】______biology and modem technology through such techniques as genetic engineering. Some of the new biotech companies specialize in agriculture and are working feverishly to 【C4】______ seeds that give a high yield, that 【C5】______ diseases, drought and frost, and that reduce the need for 【C6】______ chemicals. If such goals could be achieved, it would be most【C7】______. But some have raised concerns about genetically engineered crops.
In nature, genetic diversity is created within certain 【C8】______. A rose can be crossed with a different kind of rose, but a rose will never cross with a potato. Genetic engineering, 【C9】______ usually involves taking genes from one species and inserting them into another【C10】______to transfer a desired characteristic. This could mean, for example, selecting a gene which leads to the production of a chemical with anti-freeze 【C11】______ from an artic fish, and inserting it into a potato or strawberry to make it frost-resistant.【C12】______, then, biotechnology allows humans to【C13】______the genetic walls that separate species.
Like the green revolution,【C14】______some call the gene revolution contributes to the problem of genetic uniformity—some say even more so【C15】______geneticists can employ techniques such as cloning and 【C16】______ culture, processes that produce perfectly【C17】______copies. Concerns about the erosion of biodiversity, therefore, remain. Genetically altered plants, however, raise new【C18】______,such as the effects that they may have on us and the environment. "We are flying blindly into a new【C19】______of agricultural biotechnology with high hopes, few constraints, and little idea of the potential【C20】______," said science writer Jeremy Rifkin.
【C18】
选项
A、issues
B、height
C、difficulties
D、goals
答案
A
解析
考查名词辨析。所填词与raise搭配,而且是后面提到的the effects的上义词,符合这两个条件的只有选项issues“问题,论点”,raise new issues表示“提出了新的问题”。height“高度”,difficulties“困难”,goals“目标”.语义与搭配均不正确。故选A。
