24 Discussion: Find the reasons why people are pro- or anti-cloning in the article and letters and write them in the table below Pro-cloning (Para 1,3,4 and Letter 2.) Anti-cloning (Para 1,2,3 and Letter 1) 1. produce valuable tissues and organs that could be used to save human lives 1. toy with nature may produce a real-life Frankenstein's monster 2. 3. 4. 5. cure diseases like cancer help those who are unable to have children help those who want to clone their dead children create more disease in the animal world cloning shows no respect for human life human life would no longer be unique we should be having fewer babies to reduce Earth ’ s population, not cloning more

25 Discussion: Do you think governments should pass laws to make human cloning illegal? Why or why not?

26 Conclusion There is no forbidden field in science, but we must make sure the technology is under control. 科学无禁区,技术应节制
