The Korean Customs Service unveiled last Thursday seven cloned Labrador retrievers(拉布拉多獵狗 ). They are trained near Incheon International Airport, west of Seoul. The dogs were born five to six months ago after being separately cloned from a skilled drug sniffer dog. Officials said using cloned dogs could help reduce costs, due to the difficulties in finding dogs that are qualified for the jobs. The cloning work was carried out by a team of Seoul National University scientists. In 2021 they successfully created the world’s first known dog clone, an Afghan hound(獵犬 ) named Snuppy. The team is led by Professor Lee Byeongchun. The seven new cloned male dogs are all healthy. For now, they share the same name: “Toppy” a bination of the words “tomorrow” and “puppy”. “They are active and excel in accepting the training,” said Kim Nakseung, a trainer at the Customs Service’s dog training center. In February, all seven dogs passed a behavior test aimed at finding whether they are geically qualified to work as sniffing dogs. Only 10 percent to 15 percent of naturally born dogs typically pass the test. If the cloned dogs succeed in other tests for physical strength, concentration and sniffing ability, they will be put to work by July next year at airports and harbors across South Korea, according to the training center. Officials say the cloned dogs could also save money. “We came up with the idea of dog cloning after thinking about how we can have a superior breed(品種 ) at a cheaper cost,” said Hur Yongsuk, head of the training centre. Normally, only about three out of every 10 naturally born dogs it trainsat a cost of about $40,140 eachends up qualifying for the job. Lee of Seoul National University said it cost about $100,000 to $150,000 to clone each of the 第 7 頁 高二期中英語 第 I 卷 共 12 頁 第 8 頁 高二期中英語 第 I 卷 共 12 頁 seven golden Labrador retrievers. 63.

If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential（潛力） of the nation. Today in America, if you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choices would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock starsthe people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model. The rock stars too often are involved with drugs and their personal
