Ques: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: A: Recently, the word "clone" appeared very often in the newspapers. Do you know its meaning?

A: Actually, the word "clone" means to produce the "same" animal by taking cells from an adult one, I think, if we know how to do cloning, we need only keep a small number of sheep, cows or horses. B: There's more to it. Recently there have been some people who ever want to clone humans. A: It seems interesting. But do you think it is possible to do that? B: No, I don't think so.
