However, I have noticed that kids today are often tall, even when their parents are not. I think that this might be down to a be
12、tter diet.答案 2：Very often their personalities are similar. I ve met the parents of some of my classmates and it s interesting that my quieter classmates tend to have quiet parents, whilst my more outgoing classmates have more extrovert parents.

15、en are influenced by all members of their families, male and female, so they end up being a mixture of all these influences.In terms of personality, are people more influenced by their family or by their friends? In what ways?答案 1：I think that the influence of friends may be stronger. People spend a
16、 lot of time with their friends, so the influence on personality is bound to be strong. Friends also tend to be of the same generation and therefore enjoy doing the same kinds of things. Young people are also heavily influenced by what is considered by their friends to be cool and fashionable. Many

19、 The library books are not always up- to- date, but university libraries often have the latest ones. The Internet is a great source of information about any subject. I mean, you just need to type in the subject and you can search for it at the push of a button.答案 2：A lot of people get information ab
20、out genetic research from newspapers and magazines. Newspapers don t carry much detailed information, but if you just want to get an overview of what is happening in this field, they are useful. Magazines scientific ones provide more in- depth coverage of what is happening and what breakthroughs hav
21、e been made. The developments are presented in simpler terms, so you don t have to be an expert to understand them.How do people in your country feel about genetic research?答案 1： I think that most people are wary of it. They don t quite understand where it is all leading and are therefore suspicious

Other people are worried about how all this genetic information will be used.答案 2： I think that most people are amazed by the discoveries that have been made in this fie
23、ld. They hope that it will lead to more great scientific breakthroughs that will help humanity. For sure, some people are more cautious. This may a good thing, because we need to be careful how we use the new science we discover.Should this research be funded by governments or private companies? Why
24、?答案 1：I think that it should be funded by the government, because then it can be tightly controlled and there is less chance of it being misused. Governments are also more likely to fund research into areas that will benefit most people rather than companies which are generally more concerned with u
25、sing genetics for profit.答案 2：I think that it should be funded by both. Companies will inevitably focus more on profitable aspects of this research, whilst governments are more likely to look at ways it can improve society. In this way, genetic research will take a wider variety of forms, hopefully leading to a wider range of discoveries and uses.
