Philip: Hey, Susan, look at me. Something's bothering you, I can tell. What's the trouble? Why so sad?
Susan: I'm sad all right. You will be too. I just found out Dolly died. And she was only six.
Philip: That's too bad. Six certainly is young to die. What did she die of?
Susan: Cancer. And a sort of stiffening in her joints called arthritis. But she was still able to produce six little ones.
Philip: Six children by age six! No one could do that. You must be joking.
Susan: Ever see her photo? You just want to give her a hug. Big eyes; high nose; curly fair wool.
Philip: Ah, now I've got the picture. You're not talking about a person at all. You mean Dolly the cloned sheep.
Susan: Of course I'm talking about Dolly, the first cloning, in 1996.
Philip: Strictly speaking, that wasn't the first cloning. A Chinese scientist cloned a fish thirty three years before.
Susan: Really? I've never heard about that. Why did he keep it a secret? Why don't we know more about him?
Philip: His name is Tong Dizhou. He described the cloning in a Chinese scientific journal.
Susan: I can guess what happened. The article was never translated into English and was not printed in an international journal and widely read. Right? Philip: You guessed it. Had the scientific community known, he'd be famous. Susan: Now that's something that really is sad. When you think that he made a great discovery, but didn't get credit for it, you feel sorry for him.
Q 6: Why was the woman sad?
Q 7: What does the dialog say about Dolly's offspring and death?
Q 8: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a feature of Dolly's appearance?
Q 9: What did the Chinese scientist Tong do?
