China has input several billion yuan of ...

 

China has input several billion yuan of money to stop the dirty water waste on the upper and middle area of the Pearl River from polluting the lower reaches of the river, especially the Macao Spe­cial Administrative Region.

The Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in the upper and middle reaches of the Pearl River has been rapidly urbanized(城市化)and industrialized in recent years, leading to a rise in the amount of urban rubbish to the damage of the land, rivers and atmosphere.

Refuse dumps and special plants in most cities treat rubbish to make it harmless, with 5,800 tons of wastes being burnt, buried or made into fertilizers on a daily basis.

He Suping, a woman engineer with the water re­sources department in Guangxi said, it is imperative for the autonomous region to treat sewage wastes to protect the area’s Karst terrain(喀斯特地形)and rain water which brings contact between groundwater and surface water, making groundwater more easily polluted.

The Xijiang River, a branch of the Pearl River which runs from Guangxi to neighboring Guangdong Province, provides fresh water for a number of river­side cities such as Macao, Zhuhai, Zhongshan and Zhaoqing, so Guangxi must begin to treat rubbish quickly to protect the water sources, said Liu Chen, a senior engineer with the Ministry of Water Resources.

The government 2001—2006 plan to spend bil­lions of yuan to turn wastes harmless has been mainly provided by national debt payments and overseas in­vestment.So far wastes treatment projects have re­ceived a total of 400 million yuan(48 million US dol­lars)from national debts and 60 million yuan(7.22 million US dollars)from overseas loans(贷款).

1.The main idea of the passage is __     

       A.A large number of waterways have been polluted in China up to now.

       B.Guangxi and Guangdong have taken the lead in making water clean.

       C.China's rivers are badly in need of improve­ment.

       D.China is making efforts to reduce pollution of the rivers.

2.The main idea of the last paragraph is __

       A.The government has no ability to afford the expenses of treating wastes.

       B.The government has a long-term plan to treat wastes.

       C.National debt payments and overseas investment are taking an important part in developing China's economy.

       D.A great deal of money is needed in dealing with wastes.

3.The basic reason why the amount of urban rubbish rises in Guangxi lies in _____.

4.The word “imperative” here probably means _______.

A story from the Bible tells of old Babylon, where the men decided to build a tower that would touch the sky.But God was unhappy, and he made them speak different languages.They couldn’t understand each other, so their dream never came true.

Yet the dream remains alive: if all men speak the same language, they can do anything.L.L.Zamenhof from Poland was among the men who pursue this dream.He developed Esperanto(世界语)between 1877 and 1885.

As the most successful man-made world language, it is spoken by over two million people around the world.Last month, the World Esperanto Congress(大会), dealing with language rights, ended in Sweden.The 2004 conference will be held in Beijing.Most Esperanto speakers are in Central and Eastern Europe and in East Asia, particularly Chinese mainland.

Esperanto has two advantages.First, it’s easy.Each letter has exactly one sound and there are just 16 basic grammar rules.The second advantage is that it belongs to no one country.But Esperanto has only reached a small number of people compared with natural languages widely used around the world-such as English or Chinese.While these languages are deeply connected with their nations and cultures, Esperanto doesn’t have this background.

Will Esperanto really become a global language? It remains a question.

1.The writer tells us a story at the beginning to          .

       A.explain why men have been making the effort to create a language shared by all

       B.explain why men now speak different languages

       C.show the relationship between man and God

       D.prove that language is very important

2.What does the underlined word “pursue” in the second paragraph mean?

       A.“Realize”.          B.“Work for”.       C.“Be against”.     D.“Follow”.

3.What is the basic difference between Esperanto and English?

       A.More people speak English than Esperanto.

       B.Esperanto words are easier to spell.

       C.Esperanto has fewer grammar rules.

       D.Esperanto is not supported by any country or culture.

4.What does the story mainly talk about?

       A.Advantages and disadvantages of Esperanto.

       B.Men’s dream of sharing the same language.

       C.The most successful planned language-Esperanto.

       D.Comparison of Esperanto and other languages like English and Chinese.

When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”.Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.

Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic.My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day.If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?

Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone.“The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone.She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton.Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车)to her rescue.

Point 3 The mobile removes our secret.It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.

Point 4 The telephone separates us.Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window.It was easy to get his number.We were so near—but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”

Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives.Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously(同时地)on chat lines(at least my daughter does.I wouldn’t know what to talk about).We can talk across the world.We can even talk to astronauts(if you know any)while they’re space-walking.And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.

1.How do you understand ‘Point 1 —The telephone creates the need to communicate,…’?

      A.People don’t communicate without telephone.

      B.People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.

      C.People communicate more since telephone has been created.

      D.People communicate more because of more traffic.

2.Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life?

      a.Point 1.               b.Point2.              c.Point3.              d.Point 4.  e.Point 5.

      A.c, d                     B.a, e                    C.a, c                    D.b, e

3.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through       

      A.the TV screen                                    

      B.a fax machine

      C.the phone line hooked up to the computer                          

      D.a microphone

4.The best heading for the passage is .

      A.Phone Power                                       B.Kinds of Phone

      C.How to Use Phones                           D.Advantage of Phones
