In the Age of Genetics, you no longer have to try to cut out smoking or think twice about gobbling that candy bar in your desk drawer. And forget jogging in a cold 【M1】______
morning. The die was cast long ago, from the moment when the parental 【M2】______
sperm and egg first integrate. The resulting package of chromosomes has programmed【M3】______
every step of your life. So sit back, relax and leave the driving with someone else. But【M4】______
one problem remains: this new world order is at sharp odd with an older theism, that【M5】______
blame can and must be assigned in every human transaction. We have built a vast judicial-industrial complex that offers lawsuits for every need,
satisfying various urges like the 【M6】______
wish for fairness or revenge, for getting rich quick or simply getting your due. This all-blame all-the-time approach applies to much more than determining culpability would a 【M7】______
neighbor trip on your lawn and break an arm. It also says that people are responsible for
their own health- and illness. It is your error if you develop cancer or a heart attack【M8】______
because you didn’t eat, think or breathe right. You have allowed the corrosive effect of
unresolved anger or stress or poor self-esteem undermine your health.
So if you are sick 【M9】______
or miserable or both, it’ s your own darned fault. No wonder we fled. The transition from
the chaotic, barking family feud character of lawsuits to the sleek silence of a future
devotes to cloning and splicing genes surely derives from something larger than 【M10】____
scientific opportunity or our fascination with "Star Trek".
【M5】
选项
答案
odd改成odds
解析
