List of Headings

A. ………………………………
Cloning is the creation of a cell or organism which is genetically identical to another. There are two main issues in talking about human cloning: the creation of a new person with the same genes as someone who is alive or has lived (reproductive cloning) and the creation of a new person with the same genes as someone who is alive or has lived (reproductive cloning) and the creation of embryos in order to make new organs or cells for medical or research purposes (therapeutic cloning)
B. ………………………………
Dolly the sheep was cloned by transferring the nucleus of a body cell into an egg which had already had its nucleus removed. Human cloning would probably be done the same way.
C. ………………………………
It has been banned in the US and in Britain, Alan Miburn, the health secretary, announced recently that the UK will ban any attempt at human cloning.

NB You may use any letter more than once.
28 threats to the glow-worm
29 ways in which glow-worms have been used
30 variations in type of glow-worm
31 glow-worm distribution

33 the life-cycle of a glow-worm
Match the statements with these sentences taken from the paragraphs:
A. So within any one area each species will differ from its neighbours in some way, for example in the colour or pattern of its light, how long the pulses of light last, the interval between pulses and whether it displays in flight or from the ground.
B. In Britain, for example, there are plenty of anecdotes describing how glow-worms have been used to read by or used as emergency bicycle lamps when a cyclist’s batteries have failed without warning. Early travellers in the New World came back with similar stories, of how the native people of Central America would collect a type of click beetle and release them indoors to light up their huts. Girls threaded them around their feet to illuminate the forest paths at night.
The highest concentrations of firefly species today are to be found in the tropics of South America, which may mean either that this is where they first evolved, or simply that they prefer the conditions there. Wherever they first arose, fireflies have since spread to almost every part of the globe. Today members of the firefly family can be found almost anywhere outside the Arctic and Antarctic circles.
C. As with many insects, the glow-worm’s life is divided into four distinct stages: the egg, the larva (equivalent to the caterpillar of a butterfly), the pupa (or chrysalis) and the adult.
D. In some countries, the numbers of glow-worms have been falling. Evidence suggests that there has been a steady decrease in the British glow-worm population since the 1950s and possibly before that. Possible causes for the decline include habitat destruction, pollution and changes in climate. Thousands of acres of grassland have been built upon and glow-worm sites have become increasingly isolated from each other. The widespread use of pesticides and fertilisers may also have endangered the glow-worm. Being at the top of a food chain it is likely to absorb any pollutant eaten by the snails on which it feeds. The effect of global warming on rainfall and other weather patterns may also be playing a part in the disappearance of glow-worms. A lot more research will be needed, however, before the causes of the glow-worm’s gradual decline are clear.
E. By 1888 Tane Tinorau had opened the cave to tourists.

What causes obesity and overweight?
The fundamental cause of obesity and overweight is an energy imbalance between calories consumed and calories expended. Globally, there has been:an increased intake of energy-dense foods that are high in fat; and an increase in physical inactivity due to the increasingly sedentary nature of many forms of work, changing modes of transportation, and increasing urbanisation.
Changes in dietary and physical activity patterns are often the result of environmental and societal changes associated with the development and lack of supportive policies in sectors such as health, agriculture, transport, urban planning, environment, food processing, distribution, marketing, and education.
