Text Structure Analysis: Part One: (Para. 1) --- The History and Geography of Human Genes, a book containing the results of more than 50 years of research in population genetics, argues against the theories pushing the genetic superiority of any one population over another. 2 Part Two: (Para. 2) --- The contribution of the book: the creation of the first genetic map of the world that traced the routes of early human?s migration to find the closest thing we have to a global family tree. Part Three: (Para. 3-4) ---The creative results came from the hard work over the years. Part Four: (Para. 5-9) --- Four major contributions of the first genetic map pf the world. Part Five: (Para. 10) --- Conclusions: Apart from scientific value of the research, the social significance is to weaken conventional notions of race that cause racial prejudice.

Translation—XI 1. 它对人类在基因层面上的差异做了迄今为止最为广泛的调查。 2. 实际上，那种认为某一种群比另一种群的基因更优异的理论是毫无根据的。 3. 为了确保种群的“纯正”，这项研究将对象限定于其目前的生活区域仍与1492年以来相 同的那些群体，即在来自欧洲最初的大规模迁移之前。这实际上就是一幅真实的哥伦布 驶向美洲时期的世界人口基因分布图。 4. 我们眼中看到的人种差异，例如欧洲人与非洲人的差异，主要是人类从一个大陆向另一 个大陆迁移时为适应气候而产生的。 5. 结合对远古人骨的研究，这一图谱证实了非洲是人类的诞生地，因而也是人类迁移的始 发地。 6. 这些发现，再加上现代非洲人与非非洲人之间的巨大基因差距，说明了从非洲人种群开 始的分支是人类家谱上最早的分支。 7. 除了揭示人种的起源之外，基因信息也是医学界可用的最新原材料。医学界希望能用人 类脱氧核糖核酸制成特别的蛋白质，这些蛋白质具有某种抗病药物的价值。 8. 保护土著人权益活动家们担心科学家可能会利用土著人牟利:从当地人血样中提取的基 因物质可被用于商业目的，却不给DNA提供者足够的报酬。 Essay Summary—XII 1.
