Farmers" Markets
Charlotte Hollins knows she faces a battle. The 23-year-old British farmer and her 21-year-old brother Ben are fighting to save the farm from developers that their father worked on since he was14. __________ (46)
"You don&39;t often get a day off. Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keep prices down. With fewer people working on farms it can be isolating," she said. "There is a high rate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!"
Oliver Robinson,25, grew up on a farm in Yorkshire. __________ .(47) "I&39;m sure Dad hoped I&39;d stay," he said. "I guess it&39;s a nice, straightforward life, but it doesn&39;t appeal. For young,ambitious people, farm life would be a hard world." For Robinson, farming doesn&39;t offer much "in terms of money or life style". Hollins agrees that economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards: "Providing for a vital human need, while working outdoors with nature."
Farming is a big political issue in the UK. __________(48) The 2001 foot and mouth crisis closed thousands of farms, stopped meat exports, and raised public consciousness of troubles in UK farming.
Jamie Oliver&39;s 2005 campaign to get children to eat healthily also highlighted the issue. This national concern spells (带来) hope for farmers competing with powerful supermarkets. __________(49)
"I started going to Farmers&39; Markets in direct defiance (蔑视) of the big supermarkets.
__________(50)It&39;s terrible," said Londoner Michael Samson.

"I've never met a human worth cloning", says cloning expert Mark Westhusin from the cramped confines of his lab at Texas A & M University. "It's a stupid endeavor.' That's an interesting choice of adjective, coming from a man who has spent millions of dollars trying to clone a 13-year-old dog named Missy. So far, he and his team have not succeeded, though they have cloned two calves and expect to clone a cat soon. They just might succeed in cloning Missy later this year—or perhaps not for another five years. It seems the reproductive system of man's best friend is one of the mysteries of modem science.
Westhusin's experience with cloning animals leaves him vexed by all this talk of human cloning. In three years of work on the Missyplicity project, using hundreds upon hundreds of canine eggs, the A&M team has produced only a dozen or so embryos carrying Missy's DNA. None have survived the transfer to a surrogate mother. The wastage of eggs and the many spontaneously aborted fetuses may be acceptable when you're dealing with cats or bulls, he argues, but not with humans. "Cloning is incredibly inefficient, and also dangerous", he says.
Even so, dog cloning is a commercial opportunity, with a nice research payoff. Ever since Dolly, the sheep, was cloned in 1997, Westhusin's phone at A&M College of Veterinary Medicine has been ringing busily. Cost is no obstacle for customers like Missy's mysterious owner, who wishes him remain unknown to protect his privacy. He's plopped down $3.7 million so far to fund the research because he wants a twin to carry on Missy's fine qualities after she dies. But he knows her clone may not have her temperament. In a statement of purpose, Missy's owner and the A&M team say they are "both looking forward to studying the ways that her clone differs from Missy".
The fate of the dog samples will depend on Westhusin's work. He knows that even if he gets a dog viably pregnant, the offspring, should they survive, will face the problems shown at birth by other cloned animals: abnormalities like immature lungs and heart and weight problems. "Why would you ever want to clone humans", Westhusin asks, "when we're not even close to getting it worked out in animals yet?"
Which of the following best represents Mr. Westhusin's attitude toward cloning?
A.Animal cloning is a stupid attempt.
B.Human cloning is not yet close to getting it worked out.
C.Cloning is too inefficient and should be stopped.
D.Animals cloning yes, and human cloning at least not now.
