After more than 40 years of parallel development, the
information and life sciences — computing and biology — are
fusing into a single, powerful force that is the foundation for
the biotech century. Increasingly, the computer used to decode, 【S1】______
manage and organize the vast amounts of genetic information
that will be raw resource of the new global economy.
The biotech century promises great riches: genetically
engineered plants and animal to feed a hungry population; genetically 【S2】______
derived sources of energy and fiber to build a renewable society;
wonder drags and genetic therapies to produce healthier babies,
eliminate suffering and extended human lifespan. But a question will 【S3】______
gaunt us: at what cost?
The new genetic commerce raises more troubling issues than
any economic revolution in history. Will the artificial creation of cloned 【S4】______
and transgenic animals mean the end of nature and substitution of a 【S5】______
bio-industrial world? Will the mass release of thousands of genetically
engineered life forms into the environment cause catastrophic pollution
and reversible damage to the biosphere? What are the consequences of 【S6】______
the world’s gene pool become patented intellectual property, controlled 【S7】______
exclusively by a handful of corporations? What will it mean to live in a
world where babies are genetically engineered in the womb, and that 【S8】______
people are increasingly identified and stereotyped on the basis of their
genotype?
The debate is not about the science but about how we apply them. 【S9】______
Until now the debate has engaged a very broad group of molecular 【S10】______
biologists and government policy-makers, though the biotech
revolution affects us all. With the new technology flooding into our
lives, the moment has come for a much broader debate, one that involves
the whole society.
【S10】
选项
答案
broad→narrow
解析
尽管生物技术革命影响着我们每个人,但这场辩论目前只涉及了生物学家、政府决策人等狭窄范围的人群。该问题的讨论应有全社会参与。逻辑语义相悖。
