B．produceC．producing D．produced解析：producedfromanyonecell“由任何单细胞产生的”，过去分词短语作后置定语。aplantoranimal与produce之间存在被动关系，因此应用过去分词短语作定语。答案：D2．A.tried B．succeededC．attempted D．managed解析：managetodosth.“设法做成某事”；trytodosth.“努力做某事”，但不一定成功；succeed不接todosth.；attempttodosth.“试图做某事”，但不一定成功。而本句表示完成的一件事情，故选D项。答案：D3．A.taking B．teachingC．using D．learning解析：usingcloningtechnology“利用克隆技术”。take“带走”；teach“教”；learn“学会”。这三个词均不符合句意。答案：C4．A.too B．eitherC．also D．aswell解析：also表示“也”，一般放在句中；too用于肯定句的句末；either用于否定句的句末；aswell用在肯定句中，放在句末。答案：C5．A.reporter B．physicistC．writer D．artist解析：Chicagophysicist“芝加哥物理学家”。其余三项的人物不能搞科研。reporter“记者”；writer“作家”；artist“画家，艺术家”。答案：B6．A.aroused B．roseC．roseup D．wasraised解析：arousedalotofmedia’sattention“引起众多媒体的关注”；rose是rise的过去式，“上升，上涨”；raised是raise的过去式，“抬起；引起，导致”，但此处用被动结构是错的；riseup“起义；升起”。arouse“引起；激发”，符合句意。答案：A7．A.signed B．wroteC．drew D．arrived解析：signanagreement“签署一项协议”；write“写”文字；arriveatanagreement“达成协议”，但D项中少介词at。答案：A8．A.spoke B．toldC．reported D．announced解析：“thePresidentannounced...”“总统宣布……”。speak，tell和report后都不加冒号。答案：D9．A.the B．aC．an D．\解析：introducealaw“推出一项法律”。第一次提到此法律，用不定冠词修饰。答案：B10．A.allowed B．agreedC．passed D．approved解析：“通过”法律应用pass(通过)，而不用allow(允许)，agree(同意)，approve(赞成，同意)。答案：C11．A.in B．forC．beyond D．about解析：benegativeaboutsth.“否定某事”。答案：D12．A.forbidden B．permittingC．banning D．referring解析：banninghumancloning(禁止克隆人)为现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰laws。forbidden形式不对，故排除。答案：C13．A.seriously B．personallyC．partly D．possibly解析：由上句可知此处表示“任何禁止克隆人的打算都是‘严重’错误的”。seriously“严重地”，符合语境。personally“个人地”；partly“部分地”；possibly“可能地”。答案：A14．A.despiteof B．thoughC．although D．inspiteof解析：inspiteof和despite都是介词(短语)，后接名词、代词或动名词，而though和although是连词，后接从句。答案：D15．A.possible B．impossibleC．likely
