MODEL2 Do you think the cloning of humans
should be forbidden by law?
Script
Susan: After the cloning of Dolly the sheep, I think human cloning is next.
John: Whoa. I have some reservations about it. There are stll many scientific problems
to solve before human cloning starts.
Susan: There’s an easier way. The Clonaid Company says they’ve cloned humans.
John: Oh, my God! These guys claim aliens from another planet taught them human
cloning.
Susan: A woman gave them half a million dollars to clone her dead daughter.
John: Clearly that woman doesn’t know much about cloning. How risky 1 it is!
Susan: I know it’s inefficient 2. It took 276 tries to produce Dolly. But why is it risky?
John: Cloned animals grow abnormally large and age unnaturally 3 fast.
Susan: In other words, that woman may not be happy with her cloned daughter.
John: Then there are the emotions. No one knows if cloning damages the mind.
Susan: Do you think the cloning of humans should be forbidden by law?
John: To my mind, the cloning of human organs shouldn’t be prohabited. It may help
solve medical problems.
Susan: I see your point: cloning should be regulated if it’s to benefit humanity.
