The Human Genome Project
How much of who we are is determined by our genes? How similar are the genes of people living in different parts of the world? Which diseases are genetic? The findings of the Human Genome Project, begun in 1990, will help answer these questions and many others. To find the answers, scientists collected blood, hair, skin cell, and saliva samples of people from all over the world. They then retrieved the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from these samples, which is found in the body's 46 chromosomes. Scientists involved in the project have already finished mapping, or "sequencing," DNA molecules, showing the location of genes. Now that the sequencing is finished, researchers have begun the long process of analyzing the results to find out how these genes function. To scientists, this analysis is like Europe's discovery of the New World.

Scientists' findings so far are both surprising and promising. One of the unexpected findings is that it turns out people have far fewer genes than scientists thought. Before the project, the scientific world had assumed that there were 100,000 genes in the human body responsible for not only physical characteristics like hair and eye color but also certain behaviors and aptitudes. However, there are in fact only 34,000 genes. This means that there is more at work than just genes in determining why one person commits a crime and another is good at music or sports.

Another interesting finding is that although groups of people around the world may look different, they are actually very similar genetically. For instance, there is only a very small number of genes accountable for the difference in skin color.

Some of the most hopeful research coming out of the project relates to the study of disease. When the project first began, the medical world knew of about 100 human disease genes. Because of the project, scientists have identified more than 1400 disease genes so far for such conditions as diabetes, Alzheimer's, and certain forms of colon and breast cancer. By studying how these genes work, medical researchers can try to improve treatments. This could include developing more effective medicines as well as manipulating the genes themselves to cure or even prevent illness. Since scientists have already mapped the genomes of other organisms, including the mouse, rat, and fruit fly, they can now compare these to the human genome to learn how different organisms evolve, react to disease, and respond to environmental pollutants.

The following is a passage about a boy, Phaëthon, who is being teased by his friends. They do not believe that Apollo is Phaëthon’s father or that Apollo makes the sun rise and set. In order to prove Phaëthon ‘s friends wrong, Apollo hesitantly gives Phaëthon his chariot and horses.



Apollo hurried to give directions. “You have never driven my chariot before. You must make the horsesstay on the path. If you are too low, you will scorch the earth.”



“I know, Father. Now watch me take off!” shouted Phaëthon.



Dawn stepped back and released her grip on the horses’ bridles. The horses pawed the ground and snorted with excitement. The sky begged for Dawn’s light, so she ran toward the horizon in her glowing gown to make the darkness fade. As Phaëthon was about to ascend, Apollo grabbed his arm and said, “Please listen to me! If you go too high, you will warm the cold depths of the heavens, and the Bear or Snake or Scorpion will come alive!”



Phaëthon just laughed. “My friends are waiting. I’ve got to go!” he shouted.



With that, the chariot was off. It was a wild ride. Hour and Day were unruly and difficult to control. Phaëthon did not have his father’s strong arms or years of experience. The horses wove from side to side and bobbed up and down through the heavens, hitting everything in their way. The sun bounced along behind the chariot like a basketball. It grazed the stars and skidded along mountaintops, leaving charred remains behind. Phaëthon’s friends ran for cover as they watched the spectacle. Just as his father had warned him, the figures in the sky began to move. Suddenly the Scorpion lunged toward him, but Phaëthon ducked out of the way in time. The Snake lashed out and bit a wheel off the chariot.



Apollo, witnessing the destruction, dashed up toward the heavens, but he was too late! The Bear had stirred from his icy hibernation and grabbed Phaëthon before his father could reach him. Apollo grabbed the reins and finally regained control of Hour and Day, but it was years before the earth’s mountaintops were white with snow again. The scorched areas became deserts where very little would grow. Phaëthon became a part of the constellations alongside the Bear, where his father could regretfully keep an eye on him.

Select the correct text in the passage.
In this excerpt from "Sea Fever" by John Masefield, which line contains an image that could stand for death?
1.) I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by:
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking,
I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
2.) And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
3.) To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
4.) And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

Read this section of Uriel’s report about flightless birds.

Flightless birds are birds that cannot fly. Scientists do not agree on whether the ancestors of these birds could fly. However, most experts understand that flightless birds are missing body parts that allow other birds to fly.

What should Uriel do to help his readers understand the text, and why?

A.
Set the terms flightless and
ancestors in boldface text so readers understand that these are key words that they should look up.
B.
Create a timeline showing when the ancestors of flightless birds became extinct so readers will understand when birds became flightless.
C.
Add a map showing the location of flightless birds in the world so readers understand the connection between flightlessness and country of origin.
D.
Include labeled illustrations of a flightless bird and a flying bird so readers understand which parts the flightless bird is missing that would allow it to fly.
