The film The Matrix ends with a monologue by the film’s protagonist Neo, played by Keanu Reeves.
Trailers and advertizing for the film emphasized its mixture of live action and computer-generated special effects, as well as its melding of low-budget Hong Kong kung fu action and big-budget Hollywood bang.
More important, Reeves, the film’s multiracial star, provided a visual metaphor for the hybrid future.
Beginning with the narrative deployment of the racially ambiguous figure of Reeves himself, the film veers between valorizing and isolating the hybrid Neo in its story line and characterizations.
Neo looks white so, without the knowledge of his racial history, he must be read as white. A number of critics view Neo as simply another white male.
When Richard King and David Leonard ask, “Is Neo White?” the answer is a resounding yes. They state,
“Without any other clues, one must assume that Neo is destined to save, and lead the battle against the machine, because of his whiteness.” If critics read Reeves/Neo as unambiguously white, then the film simply reiterates familiar racist and patriarchal notions of the great white hope come to save the
“little brown brothers.”
However, Keanu Reeves is himself mixed race. Born in Beirut to an English mother and a father of Hawaiian and Chinese descent, he is a citizen of the world. Although many film audiences do not read Reeves as multiracial, the film speaks much more powerfully to those who do. By reading Reeves/Neo as mixed race, the film resonates with another, different, racial narrative. That is, if the movie presents a spectrum of responses to multiraciality, then Neo represents its most celebratory and utopic extreme. He is literally The One who will deliver the people of Zion from an existence of constant struggles with the machines. The positioning of Neo as The One follows a future story of positive representations of multiracial people.
Only a decade ago, the biological concept of race seemed finally to have met its end. The Human Genome Project, which mapped the entire human genetic code, proved that race could not be identified in our genes. On June 26, 2000, when President Bill Clinton unveiled the draft genomic sequence, he famously declared that “human beings, regardless of race, are 99.9 percent the same.” Contrary to popular misconception, we are not naturally divided into genetically identifiable racial groups. Biologically, there is one human race. Race applied to human beings is a political division: it is a system of governing people that classifies them into social hierarchy based on invented biological demarcations.
But reports of the demise of race as a biological category were premature. Instead of hammering the last nail in the coffin of an obsolete system, the science that emerged from sequencing the human genome was shaped by a resurgence of interest in race-based genetic variation. Some scientists are claiming that clusters of genetic similarity detected with novel genomic theories and computer technologies correspond to antiquated racial classifications and proved that human racial differences are real and significant. Others are searching for genetic differences among races that can explain staggering inequalities in health and disease as well as variations in drug responses.
There has been a corresponding explosion of race-based biotechnologies. In 2005, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first race-specific drug, BiDil, . IV. Read the following passage and answer the questions.

V. Read the following passage and answer the questions.
(32-34)
How times have changed in the banking industry. A decade ago, many bankers viewed the consumer business as a hopelessly low-margin endeavor — owing in part to the cost of running an antiquated network of brick-and-mortar branches. For most banks, the solution was to shutter as many as possible while boosting revenues by hitting retail customers with a bevy of service fees. And today?
Those same banks are engaged in a costly race for the very customers they were busy driving off before.
Indeed, with its rich deal for FleetBoston Financial Corp., Bank of America Corp. is making a $48 billion bet that its best opportunity for growth lies in exploiting the combined banks’ vast retail-branch network. The difference this time around: A decade of cost-cutting and the introduction of electronic banking lowered the cost of servicing retail customers. And Bank of America now sees far more potential to sell those customers loans, credit cards, and a host of other financial services, including investment products. That’s especially true of FleetBoston’s New England customer base, a region Bank of America CEO calls the wealthiest single market in the world. its strategy. As
aggressive players such as Washington Mutual Inc.
buy up smaller rivals and open offices around the country at the rate of one every 36 hours, hundreds of branches with “concierges” and coffee bars are going up in key markets like Chicago and Manhattan.
Banks are bombarding consumers with loan solicitations and offering personal bankers – once a perk of the truly rich – to seemingly anyone with a checking account and a few loans. But, as they did with commercial real estate in the ‘80s, banks may once again be offering too much of a good thing.
