Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

Protests at the use of animals in research have taken a new and fearful character in Britain with the attempted murder of two British scientists by the terrorist technique of the pre-planted car-bomb.

The research community will rightly be alarmed at these developments, which have two objectives: to arouse public attention and to frighten people working in research with animals. The first need is that everything should be done to identify those responsible for the crimes and to put them on trail. The Defence Research Society has taken the practical step of offering a reward of 10,000 pounds for information leading to those responsible, but past experience is not encouraging. People are unlikely to be tempted by such offers. The professional police will similarly be confronted by the usual problem of finding a needle in a haystack.

(C) the techniques of planting bombs in cars

(D) the establishment of new animal protection organization

22. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

(A) The police abandoned their efforts to find the criminals.

(B) The terrorists escaped with the help of their organizations.

(C) The attempted murder caused grave …… 此处隐藏：22798字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
