第287句 DNA检测
Among the most popular: paternity and kinship testing, which adopted children can use to find their biological relatives and families can use to track down kids put up for adoption. DNA testing is also the latest rage among passionate genealogists-and supports businesses that offer to search for a family's geographic roots.
译文：其中最受欢迎的是父子和血缘关系检测，被收养的孩子可以利用它找到自己的血亲，家庭成员可以用它来追踪到被收养的孩子。DNA检测最近也大受热心的族谱学家的追捧，并且给那些寻找家族地理根源的商业活动提供了支持。
点睛：第一句结构较为复杂，主干部分Among the most popular: paternity and kinship testing省略了谓语动词，该部分在语句功能上相当于Among the most popular is paternity and kinship testing.which引导的两个并列的定语从句adopted children can…和families can…修饰paternity and kinship testing。第二句的主干为：DNA testing is the latest rage…and supports businesses。
rage在句中意为“狂热，风行”，如：
My girlfriend has a rage for light music.
我女朋友对轻音乐有狂热爱好。
考点归纳：与rage相关的短语还有：
*be (all) the rage意为“流行，风靡一时”
These green cars are all the rage.这些环保汽车风靡一时。
*have a rage for意为“对…有狂热爱好”
American movie makers seem to have a rage for New York City.
美国的电影制作人似乎对纽约市情有独钟。
