A company , Guizhentang , has had to face a lot of criticism(批评)because the company is in the bear bile business . They have bear farms in which bile is taken
8
out and used in traditional Chinese medicine and for other purposes .
Bile is a liquid(液体)that is produced in the liver(肝)and stored in the gall bladder(胆囊). In bears ( and in humans too ) , bile is necessary to help digest(消化)fatty foods . Traditional Chinese medicine uses bear bile to cure(治疗)pain , fever and vision(视力)problems . Bile for traditional Chinese medicine used to be collected by killing bears , but it was discovered that bear bile could be got by keeping the bears alive and just “ milking ” them by putting a rubber tube(橡胶管)into the bodies of bears . Unfortunately , this is a painful process and the bears have to live a life of suffering .
Animal rights groups want this practice to stop . They say it is a cruel way to treat animals . Guizhentang disagrees . They say the practice isn’t harmful and that they are actually helping the bears . There are fewer Chinese black bears , from which the bile is taken , because human activity is taking over the forest the bears live in . The company says bear farms are a way to protect the species . On the one hand , we use many types of animals for food , clothing , medicine and for medical research . On the other hand , we should know that causing animals great pain is wrong .
There are man-made substitutes(替代品)for bear bile that work just as well as the real thing , so bear farms aren’t really necessary . If Guizhentang really wants to protect the black bear , they should perhaps think about getting out of the bear bile business .
62. Guizhentang has been criticized because _______________ .
A. it kills a lot of black bears
B. it makes traditional Chinese medicine
C. it is in the bear bile business
D. it has a lot of farms to keep bears
63. What can we learn about bear bile from the passage ?
A. It is produced in the gall bladder .
B. It helps digest foods having a lot of fat .
C. It can’t cure a person’s eye problems .
D. It’s now got mainly by killing bears
8
64. According to the passage , which of the following is NOT true ?
A. A tube in the bodies of bears often make them die .
B. Animal rights groups are against getting the bile out of bears .
C. Guizhentang thinks bear farms are a way to protect bears .
D. Some medical research needs bear bile .
65. The purpose of the passage is to _______________ .
A. tell bear bile is very important for our health
B. imply(暗示)traditional Chinese medicine isn’t popular
C. show Guizhentang is friendly to bears
D. call on(号召)us to protect the black bears in danger
