This app could checkmate dating game
George Church，a leading professor of genetics at Harvard University，is planning to create a dating app that can match users based on their genetic agreement.
（1）BB Two people considering going on a date take out their smartphones first and check each other's genetic table to see whether there are any undesirable genes that cannot be determined from outward appearance.Genetic deficiencies（基因缺陷） that might lead to diseases in offspring will be screened out first.Heart disease？No.Immune deficiency？No.Hemophilia？No.
（2）EE Eye color，height preference，curly or straight hair.In the end，only those with the genes that promise the users a perfect child will date.
It sounds terrible.If the app becomes a reality，it could split people into different camps based on the genes they carry.
Some might argue that even now people are not wholly equal to each other—there are the rich and the poor to begin with. （3）GG Genes，on the other hand，are fixed，with no hope of changing at least in the near future.
Church didn't have this divisive goal in mjye.aid.In an interview，he said he hopes to let people know the genetic deficiencies in their mating partners so as to minimize the chances of giving birth to children with diseases. （4）FF
The problem is not so much with genetic technology，which can help people find possible diseases before birth，and possibly even cure them through gene editing.But it would be a mistake to let everybody know of each other's genetic information and make choices on that basis.
（5）CC Gene sequencing（基因排序） is becoming increasingly popular with many people choosing to know their genes better.It is reaching a stage when it becomes urgent for the law to protect such information and avoid possible leaks.
A.He will make it.
B.This is how it works.
C.That in turn calls for legislation（法律，法規(guī)）.
D.The app will be popular with different people.
E.Then comes the turn of harmless appearance characteristics.
F.But he will not be able to stop the above-mentioned possibility.
G.However，one can always struggle to improve one's quality of life.

3．Dear Laura，
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house． Now， you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening． When I was out a walk， my younger son， Tom， played football before your house． He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily． Even worse， Tom broke one of the window of Mr． Wilson's house． Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings， but promised to have the broken window repair soon． Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more． I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us． They are really nice people．
Yours，
