58、查冠词。飞速发展的医学和技术常常影响我们的生活。on a regular basis“定期地，经常地”，故填不定冠词a。43has developed/has been developing考查动词时态。根据时间状语“in recent years”可知，develop的动作从过去开始持续到现在，并有可能持续下去，故应用现在完成时或现在完成进行时，故用has developed或has been developing。44copies考查名词复数。copy在此表示“复制品”，是可数名词。根据后面的one another“彼此，互相”可知，此处copy不止一个，故用copy的复数形式。45val

59、uable考查形容词。克隆在很多医疗应用和生物实验中变得很重要。根据语境和系动词后跟形容词的用法可知，此处用value的形容词形式valuable“珍贵的，很重要的，有用的。”46occurring考查非谓语动词。大多数克隆是在实验室中进行的，还有一些在一些物种身上自然发生。逗号前是完整的一个句子，逗号后是“with宾语宾补”的复合结构，因为occur是不及物动词，且occur与其主语在逻辑上是主谓关系，故用现在分词作宾补。47closer考查副词的比较级。根据句意和空前的even可知，空处应用副词的比较级closer。48in考查介词。in the best interest of.意思是“

60、对最有利”，是固定搭配。49are考查时态和主谓一致。此处描述客观事实，故用一般现在时；由句子主语moral questions为复数可知，谓语动词应用are。50to balance考查非谓语动词。它会是一个可以让人类所获益处足以抵消它带来的负面影响的成就吗？enough to do sth.“足够做某事”。第三部分写作(共两节，满分40分)第一节(满分15分)某英文刊物以“畅想未来”为话题面向中学生征文，假设你是李华，请以“The House of the Future”为题目用英语写一篇短文应征。内容包括：设想一下1000年以后我们居住的房子会是什么样子？从房子的建筑材料、内部设施等方面
