  • 第1题：

    ［C］ the former warriors are now collaborators

    正确答案：D

     本题考查推理引申。第三段最后一句提到：尽管共同宣言使以前的基因勇士们比几年来都更加亲密，内部人士说未来达成的共识可能更多采取协调的形式，而不是直接的合作。［D］项所述内容是该句的言外之意。

    由第三段的第二句话可知 finish line指基因测序工程基本完成，但所得结果只是初稿，还不是最终的确定版本，所以研究还要继续，［A］项错误。该段首句说：没人确定现在情形与以前有何不同。可见，他们以后会不会再起烽烟是不确定的事，所以［B］项错误。［C］项与［D］项相反，由对［D］项的分析，可知［C］项错误。
