Speaking t The Guardian at the Third Internatinal Cnference n Human genetic editing，Prf Jennifer Dudna，a 2020 Nbel chemistry prize winner，said， "We'll definitely be seeing genetic therapies （治疗；疗法） fr heart diseases，brain diseases，and eye cnditins."

The technlgy can and will smth the way fr therapies fr enhancing healthy humans，t make them faster，smarter，strnger，r mre resistant t diseases，thugh enhancement wuld be mre difficult than mending single faulty genes.Accrding t the experts at the cnference，including geneticists，public health researchers and philsphers，a wave f gene editing therapies were expected t reach clinics in the next five years r s.The therapies will crrect disease-causing disrders in tissues and rgans and becme mature as researchers wrk ut hw t make multiple edits at nce and reach difficult areas such as parts f the brain.

本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍的是西藏值得去的四个旅游目的地。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
4~7.【答案】D、A、D、C
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段S after dinner，I made a cup f ht chclate，stretched myself n my sfa，and pened a page.Almst instantly，my mind left behind the details f experimental design and stepped int a land f mnsters，magic dust，and man-like bears cmprising a wnderful wrld distinct frm my daily life.It was exactly what I needed.（晚饭后，我泡了一杯热巧克力，躺在沙发上伸伸懒腰，打开了一页书。顷刻之间，我的思绪离开了实验设计的细节，进入了一个充满怪物、魔尘和像人一样的熊的世界，这是一个与我日常生活截然不同的奇妙世界。这正是我所需要的。）可知，作者逃进了一个幻想世界，故选D。
（2）词句猜测题。根据第二段Instead，I wuld chse t read thrugh the reference bks related t my disciplines fr better grades.（相反，我会选择阅读与我的学科相关的参考书，以获得更好的成绩。）可知，作者不是不阅读，而是只会阅读与自己学科相关的参考书。由此可知，作者是觉得阅读诸如《哈利波特》这样的小说浪费时间。A．Reading nvels was a waste f time.（读小说是浪费时间。）符合文意，故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段The bks have helped me build sympathy and understanding，with an unexpected benefit：I've started t think mre deeply abut the diversity f issues in the scientific cmmunity and culd serve it，heart and sul.（这些书帮助我建立了同情和理解，带来了一个意想不到的好处：我开始更深入地思考科学界问题的多样性，并可以全心全意地为之服务。）可知，作者所阅读的书让他对自己的学科有了新的见解和看法。故选D。
（4）标题归纳题。根据第一段和第二段可知，作者只会阅读和自己学科相关的书籍，希望自己能取得更好的成绩。第三段T help me stick with it，I made a New Year's reslutin：I wuld read tw fictin bks per mnth fr the entire year.The result was an almst instant appreciatin f fictin，alng with many unexpected results including nes that have benefited my schlwrk.（为了帮助我坚持下去，我制定了一个新年计划：一整年每个月读两本小说。结果是，我几乎立刻就对小说产生了欣赏，还有许多意想不到的结果，包括一些对我的学业有益的结果。）可知，作者开始阅读小说之后有了许多意想不到的结果。可知，C．Nvels：Lve at Secnd Sight.（小说：一见钟情。）适合作本文最佳标题。故选C。
本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述的是作者的阅读之旅，随着作者对阅读的投入，作者也真正爱上了阅读。
做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项填写出正确答案。

（3）A．细节理解题。由文章第四段第二句"Yang said the mst difficult part f bamb drifting was keeping ne's balance.（竹子漂流最困难的部分是保持身体平衡）"可知，独竹漂最具有挑战性的是保持身体平衡。A.Keeping ne's balance.保持平衡。B.Perfrming graceful mves.表演优美的动作。C.Chsing bambs f prper size.选择适当大小的竹子。D.Cntinuusly changing the angle.不断改变角度。故选A。

阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。
12~15.【答案】C、D、A、A
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句One f the riskiest and mst realistic ptentials is that trials f gene editing in embrys （胚胎） will prbably fllw. （最具风险的和最现实的可能性之一是，胚胎基因编辑的试验可能会随之而来。）可知，随之而来的胚胎基因编辑的试验存在风险，因此推测Jennifer Dudna认为基因编辑并非有益的。故选C项。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
16~20.【答案】D、C、G、F、B

（2）联系下文题。根据后文yu're likely t take shallw breaths（你很可能会做浅呼吸。）可知，本句是在具体说明浅呼吸的表现：只是胸部在起伏。故C．If nly yur chest is rising and falling when yu breathe（如果你呼吸的时候只是胸部在起伏）符合语境，故选C。
（3）段落大意题。根据后文Fr example，if yu ntice that yu're taking shallw breaths whenever yu check n yur breathing，yu'll knw t wrk n taking deeper breaths frm yur diaphragm （隔膜）.（例如，如果你注意到每次检查呼吸时你的呼吸都很浅，你就会知道要通过隔膜进行更深的呼吸。）可知，本段主要说明了有意识地注意自己是不是在浅呼吸，就可以通过隔膜进行深呼吸调整。故G．Being mre mindful f yur breathing can help yu make adjustments if necessary（注意你的呼吸可以帮助你在必要时做出调整）符合语境，故选G。
（4）段落大意题。根据后文T make deep breathing easier，try practicing a cuple f breathing exercises s yu can use them the next time yu're feeling verwhelmed.（为了让深呼吸变得更容易，试着练习一些呼吸练习，这样你就可以在下次感到不堪重负的时候使用它们。）可知，本段的主旨是深呼吸可以缓解紧张情绪。故F．Deep，purpseful breaths calm yu dwn in stressful r scary situatins（在紧张或恐惧的情况下，有目的的深呼吸能让你平静下来）符合语境，故选F。
（5）联系上文题。根据上文Fr example，yu can quickly relax when yu're feeling stressed by taking deep breaths thrugh yur nse and then sighing ut lud n yur exhales （呼出）.If yu ever feel like yu're n the edge f having a panic attack，take a deep breath in fr 3 secnds，hld it fr 3 secnds，and then slwly exhale thrugh pursed lips.（例如，当你感到压力时，你可以通过用鼻子深呼吸，然后在呼气时大声叹气来快速放松。如果你觉得自己处于恐慌发作的边缘，深呼吸3秒，保持3秒，然后慢慢地噘起嘴唇呼出。）可知，上文提到了处于恐慌发作边缘，本句为本段最后一句应说明该如何平静下来。故B．Repeat the exercise until yu calm dwn（重复这个练习，直到你平静下来）符合语境，故选B。
这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了呼吸的作用以及一些呼吸的方法。

解题方法点拨
（1）品读原文，确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路，通过精读文章，找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜（结尾）"。
（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
