24、More investors are supporting a biotechnology company working on ways to bring back animals that have died off. Some scientists, however, are doubtful such research efforts are possible-or even a good idea.
Colossal Biosciences first proclaimed its plan to bring back a hairy ancestor of today's elephants, known as the woolly mammoth, two years ago. Recently, the company said it wanted to bring back the dodo bird: a large, flightless bird.
The dodo is a symbol of man-made extinction. The last dodo was killed in 1681 on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius.
The possibility of bringing the dodo back is not expected to directly make money. But the genetic tools and equipment that the company develops to try to do it may have other uses, including for human health care.
The dodo's closest living relative is the Nicobar pigeon, said Beth Shapiro, a scientific advisor with the bioscience company. She has been studying the dodo for 20 years. She is a professor at the University of California.
Shapiro's team plans to study DNA differences between the Nicobar pigeon and the dodo to understand “what are the genes that really make a dodo a dodo,” she said. The team may then attempt to change Nicobar pigeon cells to make them seem like dodo cells. It may be possible to put the changed cells into developing eggs of other birds, such as pigeons or chickens. Then the birds might create young that could naturally produce dodo eggs, said Shapiro. The idea is not yet fully developed.
Shapiro said animals are a product of both their genetics and their environment-which has changed a lot since the 1600s. She added, “it's not possible to recreate a 100% identical copy of something that's gone.”
Other scientists wonder if it is even a good idea to attempt to recreate species that have died off. They question whether such efforts take attention and money away from attempts to save living species.
【1】What does the underlined word “proclaimed" mean in paragraph 2?
A.Praised.
B.Ignored.
C.Suspected.
D.Announced.
【2】What may bring fortune to the company?
A.Reborn dodo birds.
B.Inventions in the study.
C.Donations from the public.
D.Research in extinct animals.
【3】What is paragraph 6 mainly about?
A.The theory of recreating the dodo.
B.The closest living relative of the dodo.
C.The difficulty of bringing back the dodo.
D.The possibility of the rebirth of the dodo.
【4】What is the attitude of other scientists towards recreating the dodo?
A.Critical.
B.Favorable.
C.Doubtful.
D.Cautious.
