15、ok place on a farm.When I was a boy, my parents and I traveled from New York City to the Pennsylvania countryside for a weeklong taste of rural life. We stayed in a guesthouse on a farm, (22) _ (join) in the daily routines and eating meals with the farmer and his family. We got up early to see the c

16、ows as they (23) _ (milk). I even tried my hand at milking one, and then joined the farmer as he released the cows into the field afterward. Decades later I still have vivid memories of that trip and of e*periencing a lifestyle so different (24) _ my own. It made me realize the value of a vacation.T

17、o this day, I wonder (25) _ that farmer ever managed to enjoy a vacation of his own. There is never a day when the animals dont need to be fed. But I still think of that family trip when I plan my approach to taking time off with my wife and kids. Vacations are a time for resting and connecting. As

18、a bank manager, I spend much of my workday encouraging my customers to save their money. One of the reasons I give is that we should all have enough for a family vacation every year. In our busy lives, family is what we (26)_ be saving our money and time for.For my family, our vacation starts when w

19、e begin planning the trip. We talk about destinations and our budget ahead of time.

The astonishing variety of facial 31 helps people recognize each other and is cruc

23、ial to the formation of ple* societies. So is the faces ability to send emotional 32 , whether through a(n) 33 blush or a false smile. People spend much of their waking lives, in the office and the courtroom as well as the bar and the bedroom, reading faces, for signs of attraction, hostility and tr

24、ust. Technology is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. In America facial recognition is used by churches to 34 worshippers attendance; in Britain, by retailers to spot past shoplifters. This year Welsh police used it to arrest a(n) 35 outside a football game. In China it verifi

25、es the identities of ride-hailing drivers, 36 tourists to enter attractions and lets people pay for things with a smile. Apples new iPhone is e*pected to use it to 37 the homescreen.Set against human skills, such applications might seem gradual. Some breakthroughs, such as flight or the Internet, ob

26、viously transform human abilities; facial recognition seems merely to encode them.

But all these advances and countless others were developed using animals. The l

54、atest eye shadow and other cosmetics and industrial chemicals are also developed with animal testing.The lab animal issue has received attention in China in recent years as more people are concerned about animals rights. China has no animal welfare laws prohibiting cruelty to animals, but there are

55、standards (1986 and 2006) for humane treatment of lab animals, though these are difficult to enforce.World Day for Laboratory Animals was established in 1979 by the British National Anti-VivisectionSociety, memorializing millions of animals that contributed to pure science, medicine, industry, fashi

56、on and the cosmetics industry. Its also a day of action to protest the use of live animals for e*perimentsfrom lab rats and dogs to cattle and primates(灵长类动物).Thousands of activists worldwide are campaigning to raise awareness and demand an end to e*perimentation with animals, though there are few e

57、ffective alternatives. The British Union for the Abolition ofVivisection estimates that 100 million vertebrates (脊椎动物) are used in e*periments every year, 10 to 11 million in the European Union. This doesnt include mice, rats, frogs and animals not yet weaned. There are no reliable figures for China

58、 where specially bred animals are used e*tensively for research. Some date indicate around 16 million vertebrates were used in 2006.Three Rs principleThe three Rs are principles for lab animal welfare proposed by microbiologist RL Burch and zoologist W.M.S. Russel in 1959. They are “reduction, refin

59、ement and replacement and scientists are encouraged to follow them.*Reduce the number of animals by improving e*perimental techniques and increasing information sharing among researchers.*Refine e*periments and treatment to reduce suffering; use less invasive techniques, improve care and living cond

60、itions.*Replace e*periments on live animals with alternative testing wherepossible.“But the three Rs suggests general acquiescence (默许) in animal e*perimentation, says astatement by Animal Rights in Chine (ARC), set up in 2006 by over 3000 campaigners who have been urging the use of alternatives.The

61、 alternatives activists advocate include using cell cultures instead of whole animals, using phototo*icity tests on chemicals to predict their effects on humans, using puter models, studying human volunteers and working on isolated tissues. These approaches can be useful but they cant provide the an

62、swers that animal research can.“Animal e*perimentation is a basic, very important method in life science study and biomedical research and in some specific fields, so it is irreplaceable, says Yang Fei, deputy director of the Animal E*perimentation Department of Fudan University. Yang has worked on

63、regulating and standardizing animal testing for over 15 years.He says testing on primates is still necessary because their immune system is very similar to that of humans.
