Scientists have uncovered the exact difference between man and mouse.
Teams of scientists from around the world will publish today the draft (草图) genome (基因组) of the mouse, which enables them for the first time to compare another mammal's entire DNA directly with that of humans.
The similarities are far greater than the differences. Man and mouse share a common ancestor that lived more than 70 million years ago, which has allowed scientists to find treatments for a good many human diseases.
British members of the project say the draft mouse genome, published in the journal Nature, has provided the “phrasebook for scientists to translate the language of the human genome.”
“The entire biomedical research community can for the first time fully use this resource to deal with human diseases. They will now have powerful tools that will serve them for many years to come,” said Dr. Jane Rogers, head of sequencing at the Welcome Trust Sanger Institute in Cambridge, which did 20 percent of the work.
Comparisons show almost every gene in the mouse has a corresponding (对应的) gene in humans－a 99 percent similarity that should help to find how each human gene works. Already the work has been able to show that man and mouse each have about 30,000 genes yet only 300 or so are unique to either species, increasing the value of the lab mouse as a “model” for human genetics.
This is an extraordinary milestone. For the first time we have an opportunity to see ourselves in an evolutionary (进化的) mirror. The mouse genome stands for a very important chapter in the lab notebook of evolution. By taking away genes to create sick mice, scientists have been able to reproduce a number of human disorders. Knowing the entire genomes of humans and mice will enable them to employ the technique more widely, leading to a rapid development in the understanding of illnesses.
1．Scientists have found that________.
[ ]
A．men and mice are actually the same kind of animal
B．mice are actually the ancestors of human beings
C．the genome of mice is the same as that of humans
D．humans and mice most probably have developed from the same ancestor
2．The importance of the discovery lies in the fact that________.
[ ]
A．man has finally found his tree ancestor
B．it will be easier for people to find the causes of human diseases and cure them
C．it has enabled the scientists to compare human DNA with that of another mammal
D．it makes it possible for man to understand the complicated language of his genome
3．The underlined word “unique” in the sixth paragraph probably means________.
[ ]
4．It can be inferred that________.
[ ]
A．every gene of a mouse works in the same way as that of a human being
B．it has become easier for humans to find their real ancestor
C．more mice will be used in scientific experiments
D．scientists will use fewer mice in their experiments to protect them
5．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
[ ]
A．Mouse's “Book of Life” May Provide Cures for Human Diseases
B．Mice and Men Are the Same
C．Man and Mouse Share a Common Ancestor
D．The Difference Between Man and Mouse

The first English dictionary was published in 1604. The dictionary was actually nothing more than a list of about 3,000 difficult words, each followed by a one-word definition (定义，解说). The author (作者), Robert Cawdrey, made no attempt to include everyday words in his dictionary. No one, he reasoned (推理，思考), would ever have to look up a word in a dictionary if he already knew the meaning of the word．During the 1600's more dictionaries were published．Each followed Cawdrey's lead and presented a few thousand hard words. Around 1700 one dictionary maker, John Kersey, did define (下定义，精确地解释词的意义) easy words as well as hard words. But until the 1750's all the dictionaries were rather crude (精制滥选的，不完善的) and not very valuable (有价值的).
A man named Dr. Samuel Johnson changed all this. In 1755 Dr. Johnson produced the first modern dictionary. He included in his dictionary all important words, both easy and hard, and he gave good meanings. He also gave good sentences to show how each word was actually used in speech and in writing. By the end of the 1700's most dictionary makers had followed Johnsons's example. Dictionaries were getting better and better.
The 1800's saw the greatest improvement (提高，改善) in the quality of dictionaries. In England scholars (学者) planned and prepared the Oxford English Dictionary , a twenty-volume (卷，册，部) work. One of the most interesting features (特点，特征) of the Oxford Dictionary is its word histories.
