Question

2．Every year some 15，000 animals-mostly mice-are shipped into the UK for research．Some leading scientists are warning that pressure from animal rights activists is reducing the number of animals being brought into Britain for research．All ferry companies and all but two airlines have stopped importing animals intended for research laboratories．
Lord Drayson，who was a minister under the last Labour government，said animal research was"regrettably"necessary and that people would"suffer and die"without it．"If we do want to have access to medicines，and I believe that we do-in a survey carried out in the past 10 years more than 87% of the general public have said that they support animal research for medical uses．And so unfortunately we do have to do this．"
However，Alistair Currie from People，for the Ethical Treatment of Animals （PETA） said researchers should work harder to come up with alternatives to animal testing．"More man 90% of drugs that pass trials in animals fail when they're given to people，"he said．They either prove to be unsafe or simply ineffective．"
The BBC's Tom Fielden says animal rights campaigners have been imprisoned for taking direct action against laboratories in the past and more recently have focused on creating bad PR （public relations）．He says this has included letter-writhing and web-based campaigns against transport companies，which appear to have had an effect．
But the scientists who depend on the animals for their work have now decided to speak out to try to persuade the government and the transpon companies to stand up to the campaigners．Professor Robin Lovell-Badge，a geneticist at me National Institute for Medical Research （NIMR），told the BBC it was important that scientists were able to import animals，so they could work together with colleagues abroad．Dominic Wells of the Royal Veterinary College （RVC） said，"The problem is that they can't be put in a suitable transport．"
63．Now animal rights campaigners are trying to affect importing animals byD．
    A．finding alternatives to animal testing    B．creating bad public relations
    C．taking direct action against labs         D．stopping transport animals to UK
64．According to Lord Drayson，importing animals isA
    A．optional                             B．necessary                     
    C．unreasonable                         D．unconditional
65．Who is against importing animals for research？B
    A．Alistair Currie form PETA．       B．Tom Fielden from the BBC．
    C．Robin Lovell-Badge from the NIMR． D．Dominic Wells from the RVC．
66．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？A
    A．Activists stopping direct action against imports
    B．Importing animals contributing to medicine
    C．Activists'pressure slowing animal imports
    D．No animal imports，no medical research．

Answer 1

分析 本文主要讲述动物保护积极分子阻止进口用于研究性活动的动物．

解答 DABA
63   D   细节题． 根据文章第一 段All ferry companies and all but two airlines have stopped importing animals intended for research laboratories． 可知动物保护积极分子采用组织运输方式来影响动物进口，故选D．
64   A   细节题． 根据文章第二 段．And so unfortunately we do have to do this．"可知Lord Drayson认为进口动物对于医学研究和治疗疾病有帮助，我们必须那样做，故选A．
65   B   细节题． 根据文章倒数第二 段He says this has included letter-writhing and web-based campaigns against transport companies，which appear to have had an effect． 可知写信和网络斗争对于运输公司有一定的影响，因此Tom Fielden from the BBC是反对进口动物的．故选B．
66   A   主旨大意题．  通读全文可知本文主要讲述动物保护积极分子阻止进口用于研究性活动的动物．
故选A．
