Test 1Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.1 In a statement; the US president says he is taking the action; because the conflict in Darfur threatens the national security and foreign policy of the United States. The asset freeze is being imposed on four Sudanese identified by the U.N. Security Council as being involved in organizing and carrying out cruel and violent actions in Darfur. The president’s order comes days before rallies are planned in Washington and throughout the United States to protest the three-year war in Darfur. 2Celebrities such as Academy Award winning actor George Clooney are scheduled to speak at the rally. Clooney; who just returned from a trip to the Darfur region; told reporters in Washington the world’s attention need to be focused on what he called the “first massive murder of the 21st century.”1. Why is the U.S. president taking actions in Darfur2. Who is scheduled to speak at the rallyQuestions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.3 In October the Ugandan opposition leader; Kizza Basigye; returned to Kampala to prepare for the presidential elections next year. Three weeks later he was arrested. The Ugandan government says he must answer the charges; but his supporters say it’s an attempt by Ugandan President Museveni to Prevent Dr. Basigye running against him. 4The incident is threatening to darken the country’s first multi-party elections in two decades. Western nations which provide essential economic support to Uganda have held up Uganda as a role model in the region; opposition leaders are calling on them to take a stand. In this edition of Analysis; Lucy Williamson looks at whether Uganda’s relationship with its donors is feeling the strain.3. Why did Kizza Basigye return to Kampala4. What is the consequence of Basigye’s incidentQuestions 5 and 7 will be based on the following news item.5Up to 32 people were killed in two bomb attacks Monday in the Syrian city of Homs; near the border withLebanon. The second attack killed people who gathered to see the damage of an earlier car bomb. A suicide bomber entered the crowd and exploded a bomb hidden in clothing.The attacks took place in the al-Zahraa district; in the central part of the city. 6State-controlled media say 19 people were killed in the two bombings. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says 32 people were killed. Many others were hurt.It was the second major attack in Homs since the government and rebel forces reached a cease-fire agreement this month. The government will take back areas of the city controlled by rebels.7On December 12; two bombings killed at least 16 people. Those attacks also took place in the al-Zahraa district. The Islamic State terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attacks.The Wall Street Journal newspaper reports that many people who live in the neighborhood are members of the Alawite sect. The newspaper reports the area is often “attacked by anti-government rebels armed with rockets and vehicle bombs.”5. What do we learn about the bomb attacks from the news report6. What did the state-controlled media say7. What happened on December 12Test 2Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.The number of Americans over the age of 65 is expected to double between now and 2030. This next generation of retirees will be the healthiest; best educated; and most wealthy in American history. 1But many of them won’t have a retirement benefit their parents’ generation fought hard to get. It is something known as a defined-benefit plan; or “pension”. Retired workers who have a pension continue to be paid a certain percentage of their highest annualsalary-usually anywhere from one to three percent-multiplied by the number of years they worked for the company. Pensions first became popular during World War Ⅱ; when a federally-approved wage-freeze meant unions had to negotiate for retirement benefits; instead of pay increases. 2Pensions reached the height of their popularity in the late 1970s; when more than 60 percent of Americans had one.1. What problem does the next generation of retirees have2. When did pensions reach the height of their popularityQuestions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.U.S. government health and safety officials are investigating the cause of the recent explosion at a West Virginia coal mine; which killed 12 miners. 3The accident was apparently an error in an industry which has prided itself on miner safety at a time of extraordinary expansion. Mine companies operate in 27 states; from West Virginia in the east to Montana in the west; producing a total of about one billion tons a year; or more than a third of the world’s coal supply. The U.S. economy is dependent on coal production. Coal-fired power plants generate about 50 percent of the nation’s electricity. More than half the nation’s coal is mined underground by thousands of men and women who daily risk injury and death. 4But the occupation has become much safer since the late 1960s; when the U.S. Congress passed laws requiring federal mine inspetions.3. What do we learn about the recent explosion at a coal mine4. What made the mining industry safer in the late 1960sQuestions 5 and 7 will be based on the following news item.When it comes to dieting; losing weight fast holds some appeal. Maybe that’s why U.S. News & World Report has added a Fast Weight-Loss Diet category to its annual rankings of best diet plans. And one of the diets that comes out on top is the Health Management Resources HMR program.5 HMR is a meal replacement diet that can be done on your own at home or under medical supervision. Instead of made-at-home meals; dieters can order low-calorie milk; soups; nutrition bars and multigrain cereal.The U.S. News reviewers say 6the plus side to the HMR diet is its quick-start option and the convenience of having meals delivered to you. The down side is “the milk lacks variety;” and it’s tough to eat out while on this diet.7 “A common misunderstanding is that losing weight quickly is not healthy not sustainable; and will just lead to future weight re-gain;” wrote Carol Addy; the chief medical officer at HMR; in a release. But she says; to the contrary; “numerous studies demonstrate that following a lifestyle change program which promotes fast initial weight loss can result in better long-term success.”5. What is the HMR program6. What is the advantage of HMR program7. What’s the common misunderstanding about losing weight fastTest 3Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.The number of girls married in Africa is expected to double in the next 35 years; experts say. 1That means almost half; or 310 million girls; by 2050 will be married before they reach adulthood; says a United Nation’s report. The African Union says it wants to end child marriage in Africa.Delegates at a summit in Zambia are expected to set 18 years old as the lowest legal age for marriage across the contient. Marriage before age 18 is already against the law in most African countries.Yet the UN says more then 125 million African women and girls alive today were married before their 18th birthday. Experts say most were given to men in traditional or religious unions in violation of the law.2African Union charwoman Nkosozana Dlamini Zuma says local culture that undervalues girls and women is to blame. Poverty and lack of education are also responsible; experts say.1. What do we learn from the United Nation’s report2. What is the reason for child marriage in AfricaQuestions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.3 Waste products from a popular alcoholic drink could be used in the future to make biofuel. Researchers say the new fuel; based on whisky; could reduce demand for oil. They say using less oil could cut pollution that studies have linked to climate change.Scotland is the largest producer of whisky in the world. And a Scottish professor has found how to take the waste products from distilling whisky and turn them into a form of alcohol called biobutanol. Biobutanol can be used as a fuel.Whisky comes from grain; such as corn and wheat.Martin Tangney is director of the Biofuel Research Centre at Napier University in Edinburgh. He says less than 10 percent of what comes out can be considered whisky. 4The rest is mainly one of two unwanted products: strong beer and wheat. Tangney says the two byproducts can be produced to create a new material: biobutanol.3. What is the news report mainly about4. What are the unwanted products in making whiskyQuestions 5 and 7 will be based on the following news item.For several years; human resources director Pete Tapaskar says it’s been a challenge to fill all the jobs at his suburban Chicago-based technology company. 5 Getting high skilled people is still a challenge.Elizabeth Sue is principal policy analyst for the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning; who studies Chicago’s recent immigration trends. She said “They are slowly moving into the south; especially Texas; and Atlanta; Georgia. 6 What we are seeing right now is a substantially decreased total of international in-migrations. Prior to the recession we were between 50 and 60 thousand most years. Now; since 2010; we’ve been at about 23- to 24-thousand internationalin-migrations on a net basis.” 6 She says that dramatic drop-as much as two-thirds some years-contributes to Chicago’s overall still population growth.Tapaskar says there are many reasons why immigrants choose to live in Southern states instead of Chicago. 7 “The environment there is ideal for starting a business; could be the taxes there are low; and employers are getting a lot of benefits from the state government.”But Tapaskar says one thing that could bring new immigrants to Chicago is increasing the number of work visas that would attract the highly skilled tech workers his business needs.5. What is the problem for the technology companies in Chicago6. What do we learn about international in-migrations in Chicago7. Why do immigrants choose southern states instead of Chicago。

新闻英语视听说(Unit 1) 听力文本与练习答案
Food Quality1Task One: Food Additives (1)Food additives are widely used in many countries. However, the discovery a number of yearsago that the food additive Sudan Red was harmful to human health led to a backlash against all food additives.For example, the milk we drink in the morning has calcium added to it; numerous beverages contain calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and other minerals; store bought salt contains iodine, zinc and silica; and potato chips have as many as 10 types of food additives, such as spices, edible pigments, citric acid, flavor additives, sweetening agents and silica.MSG and condiments are considered food additives. Yeast powder is also a food additive tooand is usually added to steamed breads. Even sodium carbonate is a food additive, too, and is often added to make congee.To better understand the functions of food additives, Nature & Science did two interesting experiments at a bakery.Flour, eggs, sugar, salt and soda are the basic materials used in baking cakes.First, let’s make a cake without any additives. Mixing egg yolks and whites evenly, we thenadd some sugar into it. When the egg and sugar are (done) being mixed, we immediately add flour, water, soda and bulking agents into the mixture and rapidly mix them to make the batter .All this must be done within 10 to 30 seconds after which the batter must be immediately placed into the oven to bake.Now, let’s make some cakes with additives. When the eggs and sugar are being m ixed, weadd some cake oil to the mixture. The cake oil is composed of acidity regulators, antioxidants, vitamin C and sodium bicarbonate. It can make the egg-sugar mixture rapidly inflate. After flour, water and soda are poured into the egg-sugar mixture, the cake oil can form compound membranes with proteins in the cake batter. This can significantly improve the strength and stability of bubbles in the batter and make sure that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed. Even after the batter is left for some time, the bubbles will not disappear.After the cakes are taken out of the oven we can see that the cakes that had the oil added to them are much nicer to look at and are more flexible than those without the additives. Even the insides of the cakes are remarkably different. The internal structure of the cake without additivesis uneven and brittle. But the internal structure of the cake with additives is even, soft and flexibleand tastes delicious and moist.The benefits of food additives do not just apply to cakes but also to many other foods.Emulsifiers are what give ice cream its delicious taste. The sweeteners lead to low-calorie,low-sugar products.Without edible pigments, there wouldn’t be various colorful candies.2Without preservatives, can ned foods couldn’t be preserved for months on end, making it difficult to get them to consumers’ hands before they go bad. Preservatives can prevent the growth of bacteria and ensure the freshness of nutrition in the food for a short period of time. From this aspect, food additives are very important to our health. Without them, we can hardly imagine what life would be like. Food additives can keep and improve the color and flavor of foods. They can even increase the nutritional value of certain foods and improve the quality of our life. With the rapid development of the food industry, the type and usage of food additives have increased dramatically, and they have been applied more widely and become an indispensable aspect of modern food processing. Task Two: Food Additives (2)Food additives are widely used in many countries. Several years ago, the discovery that something called Sudan Red was harmful to human health led to a backlash against all food additives. In toxicology, the dosage decides the toxicity.If the intake of a substance is below its acceptable intake level, damage to the human health is within an acceptable scope. After evaluating the safety of a food additive, scientists put forth its acceptable daily intake (ADI) per kilogram of an average person’s body weight as the basis for governments to stipulate the applications and maximum dosages of food additives.The Food Safety and Toxicology Evaluation Procedures issued by the Chinese Ministry of Health require that every food additive must undergo oral acute toxicity tests, genetic toxicity tests, teratogenic tests, 90-day feeding trials and carcinogenic tests in animals.According to their toxicological data, food additives are divided into 3 categories: very safe, safe and unsafe. The first category of food additives have no restrictions related to their usage in food processing. They do not need ADI values but simply reference dosages.For example, after a large number of biochemical and toxicological researches, the international Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) announced that it planned to cancel the acceptable daily intake restriction of monosodium glutamate (MSG).This shows that MSG is a very safe food additive. China’s standards stipulate that MSG can be used in various types of food according to the practical needs of food production. For example, the maximum reference dosage of MSG is 1.3 milligrams per kilogram in candy, 190 milligrams per kilogram in condiments and 4,300 milligrams per kilogram in soups.The second category of food additives is food additives deemed safe. JECFA has established ADI values for each of them.Their uses in food processing are restricted. For instance, long-term animal experiments show that lemon yellow has the weakest toxicity of synthetic pigments and is a safe food additive. Its ADI is 0―7.5 milligrams per kilogram. In China, it is stipulated that its maximum dosage is0.1 grams per kilogram in fruit juices, drinks, candies and shrimps and 0.02 grams per kilogram in ice cream.The third category of food additives is unsafe. According to toxicological data, such additives are considered to be unsafe for use in food. In 2002, the Chinese Ministry of Health announced the prohibition of 59 types of natural raw materials in food, They are unsafe and if they are found in any food product, the company in question would be subject to legal action.Now that there are so many toxicological regulations overseeing the safety of food additives,3 why do so many consumers think food additives are a food safety issue? This perception is in part caused by the bad behavior of a very small minority of food processing companies who violate the state’s health standards through the use of illegal food additives. They increase the dosage of food additives or add some things that are not food additives into food. Consumers should stand up and safeguard their rights.They have the right to know what additives are in the food they are buying. For example, soy sauce usually has preservatives added. When a consumer buys a bottle of soy sauce in the supermarket, he can read the specific name of the preservative, say sodium benzoate or potassium sorbate, on the label of the bottle. Similarly, the specific names of sweeteners, such as xylitol and acesulfame potassium, added to soy sauce should also be marked on the label.When a type of food is added with more than 2 coloring agents, their specific names, such as Fancy Red and Bright Blue, should be clearly marked on the label. So when consumers buy food at the market, they can read the instructions on food packages to know what additives are in them. This red liquid is called Carmine. It’s a synthetic edible pigment. Its acceptable daily intake (ADI) is up to 4 milligrams per kilogram. Its maximum dosage is no more than 0.1 grams per kilogram in candy and no more than 0.025 grams per kilogram in soy milk and sausage casing. It is important that we correctly understand food additives and what they are. We shouldn’t regard them as harmful, nor should we be misguided by attempts to exaggerate their benefits. Task Three: Sanlu MilkInvestigation Continues into Sanlu Milk PowderChinese authorities are launching an investigation, following reports of kidney stones in infants, after they were fed powdered milk made by Sanlu Company in Hebei Province. Sanlu has already admitted to contamination of the product.Friday saw investigators from the Ministry of Health, the quality watchdog and relevant departments visiting affected children in hospitals. They then visited Sanlu’s headquarters in Shijiazhuang city, to take samples, and check on how the local government was dealing with the incident.An initial investigation shows milk powder containing melamine, which is used in making plastics, fertilizers and cleaning products.The quality regulator has launched a nationwide probe into all baby milk powders. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health is sharing relevant information with the World Health Organization.Food Safety to Be Resolved in ChinaWell, The recent series of food safety scandals to hit China has prompted calls for a revamp to supervision practices. During the 3rd China Food Safety Forum, participants committed to implement stricter law enforcement to assure food safety in China.To buy or not to buy, it is a question many have to ponder now, as a wave of food safety scares has renewed fears in China over continued problems. Shoppers told us they hope food safety4violations will be resolved in a more effective and timely manner.(A Beijing resident)“I often buy food and other products that are popular and have a good reputation.”During the 3rd China Food Safety Forum, about 10 governmental departments related to food safety vowed to implement (more) stricter enforcement to assure the quality of food. (Yu Jun, vice director general of Department of Food Safety of State Council of China)“We will improve our monitoring system. We are urging the local governments to standard enterprises. Companies and individuals will be handed severe penalties if they break food safety or other laws pertaining to the quality of food.”In China, there are about 500 thousand food production companies. But for many of them, a weak food value chain is the main problem. When a scandal emerges, the public interrogates not only supervisory agencies, but also blames the food company at the center of the controversy. (Huang Qitai, chief scientist of Synutra International, Inc)“I think the food safety pr oblem depends on the people in the company. We should raise our company’s culture to a new level in order to win the respect of consumers, so we do not see the illegal additives in our food today.”A publicity week on China Food Safety is also beginning around the country. The aim is to make people know more about the State’s standard of food safety and the knowledge of additives in food.Tainted food scandals have caused nationwide concern. As, it is urgent for related departments to more strictly enforce laws and regulations to resolve the country’s food safety problems, which concern everyone’s health. 练习答案Unit One Food QualityTask One1. 1) D 2) B 3) A 4) C 5) D2. 1) materials 2) additives 3) sugar 4) mixture 5) oven 6) composed7) inflate 8) stability9) Even after the batter is left for some time, the bubbles won’t disappear.10) But the internal structure of the cake with additives is even, soft and flexible and tastes delicious and moist.Task Two1. 1) A 2) B 3) D 4) B 5) DTask Three1. 1) B 2) A 3) A 4) D 5) B2. 1) investigation 2) kidney stones 3) contamination 4) investigators5) quality watchdog 6) affected 7) headquarters 8) samples9) how the local government was dealing with the incident10) which is used in making plastics, fertilizers and cleaning products。

新闻英语视听说(Unit 6) 听力文本与练习答案
City Disease1Task One: Traffic Congestion and Soaring Housing PricesIn this part the program is turned on to the 12th Five-Year-Plan that beginsin 2011. And one focus of that is to tackle challenges during China’s urbanization.When cities become larger, how can they also become more livable? Our reporter Wang Guan joined us here in the studio. He did a bit of research on a problem perhaps few of us can escape today, which is called traffic congestion. So Wang Guan, looks like traffic in big cities is getting worse and seriously compromising our quality of life!Oh! Yes, James. Few would argue that China, as an emerging economy, needs to sell cars. In fact, it sold more cars than any other country since 2009. This is also the problem. Take Beijing for example, the city where we are living. The city already has more than 4 million vehicles. And in the first half of this year, nearly two-thousand a day were added to the street. If this trend continues, in 4 years time, the capital will have 7 million cars.To put the figure into perspective, the maximum capacity for the city’s urban area is 200-thousand vehicles. In other words, should Beijing’s first, second and third ring roads become congested, they can only accommodate less than a quarter of a million vehicles, let alone seven million.And it’s amazing also to find out how OFTEN Beijingers use their vehicles. For example, recently I have did a little bit of research that according to the Beijing Traffic Research Center, the annual mileage of Beijing residen ts’ cars is 15 thousand kilometers, twice the number of Tokyo and 1.5 times than the residents in London. And 40 percent of the times, Beijingers use their cars for trips less than 5 kilometers, which is considered not necessary for taking rides with cars.Let’s look at Beijing and the other big cities, including many many big cities in China. But what about China’s smaller cities, especially its many many towns?We learned soaring housing prices is a major issue in Chinese second-tier cities. For example, in the first quarter, home prices increased more than 10 percent in cities such as Haikou, Kunming and Shenzhen, as are shown. You can see right now as shown in yellow. And also in cities including Nanjing, Shantou and Tangshan, the figure reached nearly 20 percent.The rising real estate price is believed to be associated with a controversial land-bidding system. Now developers who offer the highest price, and possibly withthe strongest connections with key local officials, get the land, regardless of their2 professional track record or credentials.A report submitted by the NPC standing committee says in 2009, less than 30 percent of the central governments budget for affordable housing was duly spent by local officials.So the lack of supervision and transparency we see here are believed to be a cause, which also gives rise to irregular dealings and corruption in other spheres of the society. That includes illegal land-grabbing, cronyism in the workplace, and academic misconduct. All these prevented these second-tier and third-tier Chinese cities from becoming fairer.Task Two: Difficulties in Buying a HouseSpecial Report: Global Financial CrisisAs the US economy goes into recession Americans are finding it’s difficult to buy a house. Real estate agents are having a tough time. Zeng Siwei takes a look at the current US housing market.John Jameson is the president of a consulting firm in Washington. He can earn more than 700-thousand US dollars a year. Thirteen years ago, John bought a villa in Washington for 250-thousand dollars. But he moved out after he and his wife divorced. Since then, he has been living with his daughter in a rented apartment. John now wants a change. This villa costs nearly 2.5 million dollars. It’s merely three blocks away from his office.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)All makes it the best of Washington. And it’s got a lot of space. It’s got back yard, front yard, windows on the side, and a lot of bedrooms and a big basement and a nice family area. John decides to buy the villa and apply for a mortgage from the bank.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)“I have a good income from my business. I have a lot of savings and a perfect credit record. So I thought they’re gonna say, ‘No problem, we’ll give you a loan immediately.’ That’s what I thought.”But it turns out to be opposite.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)“It was what they told me. One, I’m gonna have to go to see very senior management in the bank. And two, the loan is gonna require a much much larger down payment than just six months ago.”A higher down payment is not a big deal for John. But he has to wait longer for the mortgage approval. And that’s what really makes him anxious. The banks have their own explanation for raising the threshold. According to statistics from the National Association of Realtors, ten percent of US home buyers with mortgages are behind on their payments for more than a month, or face foreclosures during the third quarter. The stricter evaluation procedures and higher down payment are preventing many low-income Americans from buying houses. This is creating tough times for real estate agents.3 (Wang Jianyu, Real Estate Agent)“It used to take one or two months to sell a house. Now it normally needs three to four months, or even more.”Real estate developers face the same woes.In 2008, nearly five million homes have been sold in the US, over 12 percent down from last year. And the sales volume for new homes is 486 thousand, over 37 percent less from 2007.(Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist, National Association Realtors)“I n some places home prices are still rising, for closure rates are declining and people are still buying homes. But in other areas home prices are coming down so fast, so quickly that it is causing people to be underwater, meaning that their home values is less than the mortgage that they owe. So there is a large market variation and overall the US housing market right now is struggling.”In the sluggish market, John Jameson only wants a home where he and his daughter can enjoy a more comfortable life. John anxiously looks forward to the mortgage approval, and of course, the day they will move into the new home. Task Three: Aging PopulationChina’s aging population is growing rapidly. The latest projection is that in 2050 one out of three Chinese will be over 60 years old! This issue, not surprisingly, has generated heated debate in the annual session of the top advisory body, the CPPCC. Wang Guan takes a close look.China is likely to grow old before it grows rich. That’s the concern of some CPPCC members att ending the body’s annual sessions in Beijing.According to the latest figures, China currently has 20 million people over 80 years of age. That number will quadruple in 40 years. And by 2050, 400 million Chinese will be above 60 years old which means one in every four Chinese will belong to that category.The United Nations maintains that a country with more than ten percent of its population over 60 is an aging society.However, targeted services lag far behind.In most Chinese cities, senior citizens’ hom es are few and far between. The existing ones can’t provide senior residents with sufficient activities. That’s why for most Chinese, when they grow old, they stay with their children or spouses.(Yang Chao, CPPCC member)“Senior citizens’ homes should inc lude recreational centers, hospitals and senior citizens’ universities...where they can draw, read books, play ball -games, swim and form discussion groups. It should be a place to empower the senior citizens once again.”Some CPPCC members suggest that more of the national budget should go towards serving China’s aging population, namely by building more infrastructure and improve service in senior citizens’ homes. They say the government should encourage insurance companies to be more involved in providing services for senior4 citizens. (Yang Chao)“Commercial organizations should play a bigger role. The government should also have some favorable policies such as tax reduction for senior citizens.” CPPCC members say for those senior citizens who prefer to stay in their own homes, relevant services should be expanded. Besides regular food delivery and medical services, psychological counseling, for example, should also be provided.High Rise Apartments Vulnerable to FireThis catastrophe is being blamed on careless actions by welders. While the investigation continues, the blaze has set off alarm bells over fire safety in tower blocks, which are considered vulnerable in such circumstances.Zhang Mimi brings us more.Monday afternoon’s inten se blaze in this downtown apartment building has left a blackened and painful scar on a once peaceful neighborhood.Vehicles are not allowed within one block of the gutted ( 羊肠小道，内脏) building, but Shanghai residents from near and far continue to visit the scene, mourning the deceased and sharing opinions of the fire.(A Shanghai resident said)“My colleague was inside the building alone when the fire broke out..(A Shanghai resident)“Everyone should be prepared and be aware of the fire safety measures.” It’s believed that unlicensed welders ignited flammable nylon netting and bamboo on the scaffolding ( 脚手架). At least 53 people died and the intensity of the blaze has laid bare the risks and dangers of high rise living. The towering buildings can produce a stack effect, which quickly spreads the smoke to a height where even the tallest ladder can not reach.Professor Chen Baosheng, an expert in disaster prevention, says once a fire breaks out, the fire doors, smoke detectors and automatic sprinklers ( 洒水装置) should mitigate ( 减轻) the disastrous effects.(Prof. Chen Baosheng, Dept. of architecture of Tongji University)“Just like this stadium. Each building should be divided into different zones for preventing fires. Smoke detectors and sprinklers should be installed every 3.6 meters and fire doors should remain closed at all times.”Shanghai is home to the wo rld’s largest number of high rises. There are currently over 14-thousand buildings that are over eight stories in height. Five-hundred are over one hundred meters. While some believe the web of tower blocks display the city’s wealth, and the country’s fast urbanization, others worry these buildings fall short of adequate fire safety measures and enforcement.Experts have yet to find out whether this particular building had properly installed fire safety equipment. Professor Chen warns that proper regulation is5 urgently needed. (Professor Chen Baosheng)“Fire prevention technologies in high -rises are up-to-date. But I think we should step up efforts in terms of regulations and maintenance. Fire doors and exits should not be blocked and in the case of this bui lding, the welding should be supervised.”The massive blaze has many Shanghai residents checking out the fire prevention equipment in their own building. Many say they need to learn more about what to do during an emergency.High-rise fire fighting poses a global challenge. Fanned by strong wind, a blaze could engulf a thirty story building in half a minute, leaving residents little chances of survival. The tragedy at this complex calls for serious attention from the government to tighten enforcement of safety measures and to stop such deadly disaster from being a common occurrence.练习答案Unit Six City DiseaseTask One:1.

In the Irrawaddy delta, the worst hit area where nearly 22,000 people perished, the situation is critical.Four days of heavy winds, floods and high tidal surges have cut off the densely-populated Irrawaddy delta from the rest of the world. With more than 40,000still missing and as many as one million left homeless, the international community is struggling to get aid to those in need.The U.N.’s World Food Program is distributing aid in damaged areas of Yangon, where 800 tons of food had arrived. But the WFP says the worst-hit coastal areas areout of reach for aid workers due to flooding and road damage. The European Union has launched a primary fast-track decision to provide emergency relief for Myanmar2 amounting to two million euros.In China, the foreign ministry says one million US dollars worth of aid will be provided.(Qin Gang, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman)“China and Myanmar are friendly neighboring countrie s. In order to help the Myanmar people rebuild their home the Chinese government has decided to provide one million US dollars of emergency aid to the Myanmar government, including cash and materials.”At the US State Department, spokesman Sean McCormack says members of a disaster assistance response team were sta nding by. He says they could get to Myanmar “very quickly,” once permission is given to enter the country.India has already dispatched two naval ships to Yangon, carrying food, blankets, clothing and medicine. Neighboring Thailand has delivered the first shipment of emergency supplies to Myanmar. The Thai government has approved an overall aid package of 100 thousand US dollars.Task Three: EarthquakePremier Wen Jiabao has chaired a State Council meeting on rescue operations. While traveling by train on Thursday, he acknowledged that the relief work is a significant task, with implications for China nationwide. He also stressed that success, depends on the efforts of the entire country.Thursday was the fourth day after the 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck Wenchuan. Premier Wen Jiabao held a meeting of the State Council rescue headquarters on Thursday night. He said Monday ’s earthquake was the most destructive tremor and had the most wide-spread impact since New China’s founding in 1949. He called on all people of the country to combat the effects of the disaster. He praised rescue efforts over the past 80 hours, calling them effective and orderly. He said the country has focused its resources on saving lives and disaster relief work for victims, saying the quick response helped reduce casualties to the greatest extent possible. The premier stressed that saving lives remains the top priority, as long as hopes for survival still exist. He said the government will continue to stick to its “people -first” policy in its future rescue operations and reconstruction works. He warned relevant authorities to payspecial attentions to the prevention of an outbreak of disease. He said supplies of food, medicines, and tents must be ensured.As water is becoming a more and more urgent issue in the disaster-hit areas, the meeting also decided to form a new water resources work group. The group is in charge with the safety of reservoirs, problems caused by the altered course of the rivers in the quake areas, as well as drinking water and water supplies.Teacher Sacrifices Life to Rescue Students3 Many teachers love their students, just as parents love their children. And this is especially proved by some touching stories emerged during the devastating earthquake. For instance, a middle school teacher in Sichuan province lost his life while trying to rescue two of his students.Let’s take a look.This used to be a middle school in Huaiyuan County. But the four-storey building has crumbled into debris.In the playground beside it, 16-year-old Wu Nan, the son of English teacher Wu Zhonghong has been waiting for several days.(Wu Nan, son of Wu Zhonghong)“I really hope my father can walk out from here. My mom and I come here to have a look everyday. We hope the three of us can l ive happily together. Life like that is beautiful.”(Song Daiqun, Wife of Wu Zhonghong)“We were having lunch together at noon. He said the first class in the afternoon was his. I let him go and said “I’ll take care of the housework, I’ll wash the dishes”.When the massive earthquake struck on Monday, WuZhonghong was teaching a class. He immediately organized the four classes with 700 students to evacuate. But he returned when hearing there were still two students left upstairs. At that moment, the building collapsed. Wu Zhonghong and the two students disappeared in the debris.(Bai Yanli, one student)“It become very crowded down to the third floor and two students didn’t dare to come down. It was unexpected that they would never come down.”(One teacher of Huaiyuan Middle School)“Other teachers who were on the fourth floor, on the stairs, all had to rush down out of the building at that time. We all survived. If he only thought about himself at that moment, he also would have survived. But what he cared about was the students.”700 students were safe and their teachers survived. Only Wu Zhonghong was buried in the ruins.(One resident of Huaiyuan County)“In fact, he is only an English teacher, not the teacher in charge of a class. His sense of responsibility was so strong that it completely touched us.”His father is gone. Although Wu Nan is grieving, he is being strong. (Wu Nan) “My father has left us, but my mom is still alive. As the only man in my home, I’ll take responsibility and take good care of my mother. I will never let her be sad again.”4 练习答案Unit Three ：DisastersTask One: SnowstormExercise1. 1) B 2) D 3) A 4) B 5) C2. 1) cancelled 2) partially 3) blocked 4) rescued 5) forcing6) Soldiers 7) machines 8) reopened9) 85 stranded passengers and 25 vehicles have been rescued10) causing an economic loss of 210 million yuan, or 29 million US dollars.Task Two:CycloneExercise1. 1) C 2) D 3) B 4) A 5) CTask three:Earthquake1) D 2) B 3) C 4) B 5) A2. 1) chaired 2) rescue 3) significant 4) nationwide 5) success 6) entire 7) struck8) destructive9) had the most wide-spread impact10) He praised rescue efforts over the past 80 hours, calling them effective and orderly.。

Water Problems1Task One: Water Supply Suspension in Taizhou, Zhejiang Meanwhile continuous rain has lifted reservoirs’ water level in South China’s Taizhou, Zhejiang Province. Most reservoirs, including the largest Changtan reservoirof Taizhou, passed the alarm level.High water pressure burst a pipeline on Sunday which caused a water supply suspension in Taizhou. The water shortage was resolved Tuesday afternoon but the crisis is still causing concern for local citizens.Last Sunday night, a main water supply pipeline at the Changtan Reservoir burst. 7000 cubic meters of water was wasted hourly. The water supply in many areas was suspended.(Yan Chuanhua, Head of Changtan reservoir)“Changtan reservoir’s water line has reached nearly 35 meters, which surpa ssesthe alarm line. The pipelines have been used for more than 15 years. Now we are trying to replace the broken pipeline as soon as possible.”After the pipeline burst, rescue teams made great efforts to make a replacement. Meanwhile, water supply downtown was severed. More than 300 thousand people lacked drinking water. The local government adopted various methods to guarantee people’s basic requirements.Taizhou firehouse sent out fire engine filled with clean water to communities and hospitals.Officials dispatched water 4 to 5 times a day.Schools took measures to tackle water shortages. The Headmaster of the Huangyan Experimental Middle School says they started using their back-up water facility right after the water suspension.(Kong Qingzhou, Huangyan Experimental Middle School)“I asked all teachers to tell their students to save water as much as possible.”2 In Jiufeng Park, a one thousand year old well serviced hundreds of people. A sense of urgency overwhelmed the crowd as people competed with their barrels, buckets and water bottles for the precious water.(Mrs. Zhao, Citizen)“In the past only 10 people get water from here.”Older people are going to the front of the line when it comes to water. This lady surnamed Wang, is in her 70s, and in only 2 hours’ time she was able to get a whole tricycle of water.(Lady Wang)I bring all the barrels in my home to here to get the water.Luckily the crisis was over quickly. On Tuesday afternoon the broken pipeline was replaced and the water supply returned to normal.Task Two: Water Pollution in China AlarmingThe theme of China’s Water Week Campaign is to secure sustainable development through a strict water management system. Water pollution in China poses a huge threat to the development of a sustainable water management.Statistics of a joint report from several Chinese universities show more than one third of the country’s industrial waste water flows directly into rivers and lakes.The water environment in most cities around the country is declining.An official report from the Ministry of Environmental Protection shows amongthe investigated 131 rivers that flow through cities, 36 are severely contaminated, and nearly 60 others polluted.Since the Songhua River benzene pollution incident in 2005, over 140 pollution cases have been reported.The Yellow River, an important water resource for North China, is suffering from serious pollution. Nearly 40 percent of its mainstream has been severely affected.The country’s longest river, the Yangtze, is being thr eatened by a continuous flow of billions of tons of polluted water.And situation is no better for the Huaihe River, in which the country has investedmost. It remains a severely polluted river.3 Water pollution has resulted in enormous economic losses. Experts point out that water pollution is a joint result of human factors, society and economic development. Task Three: Agricultural Pollution in FocusAgricultural pollution is another feature of the first national census on pollution sources. Rather than m any people’s impression, waste water from agriculture and people’s daily lives greatly exceeds the amount of polluted water produced by urban factories and industries.Untreated waste water running into the river. This has become a common sight in China’s large rural areas.As many counties focus much on agricultural production, efforts on environmental protection have long been ignored.Many regions lack basic waste disposal systems, and facilities to treat polluted water.But the long-term threat is highlighted by the newly released national census on pollution sources. It shows that more than 80% of the country’s water pollution comes from agricultural production and people’s daily lives. This means water pollution in rural areas is much worse than in urban areas. In terms of chemical pollutants such as nitrogen the same picture.Much of the agricultural pollution comes from farms. Plastic materials used for greenhouses are not biodegradable ( 生物所能分解的). And booming rural enterprises are also devastating the fragile environment. Mine exploration triggered a number of pollution and poisoning cases last year.Environmental protection authorities are determined to pay more attention to rural pollution. (Zhuang Guotai, Official of Ministry of Environmental Protection) “We should not only focus on environmental problems in the cities and urban industries, but we also need to focus more on rural environmental problems.”The central government has set up a special fund for environmental protection in rural areas. More than 4.5 billion yuan is expected to be spent this year, to deal with rural pollution, and provide technical support.Some villages in affluent ( 富裕的) provinces have introduced environmentalfacilities and methods. Farmers in this Zhejiang village are using flush toilets. Waste4 water flows to a local water purification center for recycling. Farmers are learning to classify their garbage.(A farmer)“I put all the garbage from the kitchen in one pack, and put plastic bottles in another pack for recycling.”More effort is needed to set up a complete waste disposal system. And it could bea long term task to improve the habits of hundreds of million farmers.What’s Wrong with the ClimateIn the summer of 2007, the Huai River valley experienced its heaviest floodingin over fifty years. The Anhui Flood Control Headquarters opened 9 flood diversion and storage areas in order to protect the 1.2 million people living along the river’s banks.The Ni River is one of the diversion rivers 分流河道；改道河流；导流for the Huai River. Usually, water flows from the Ni into the Huai. When the Huai is diverting flood water, the sluice gate 水闸leaving from the Ni to the Huai is closed. Thus, water flows from the Huai to the Ni. Liulong Village, located next to the Ni River becomes an indirect diversion area.After the heavy rain on July 7 and 8, Liulong Village was like a pot full of water.The flood water came so rapidly that the villagers could only take what they could carry as they were evacuated.In temporary tents, the villagers tried to continue as normally as possible.The village entrance is a dividing line between homes and the refugee tent. The villagers’ flooded homes are inside this line. Every day, some people row a small boatto see whether their houses are still there. Mr. Li went every 2 or 3 days. At this timethe streets have become streams, and familiar entrances of their courtyards are now docks.Villagers are helpless in the face of flooding. They never imagined that extremeclimatic events caused by global warming would make them homeless.5 In the summer of 2007, villagers beside Dongting Lake weren’t victims of floods, but something just as destructive hit them. Beginning in late June, they found their rice fields were infested with rats. Stretching a long rope across the field, they were able to drive out large numbers of rats.In the peanut field, the plants above ground looked fine, but once you pulled onthe stalk, all the peanuts at the roots had been eaten. Water melon, pumpkin, sugar cane and corn crops had all been destroyed, including even the lotus seeds grown in water. The rats also destroyed the roots of the willow trees.The rats are reed 芦苇voles 野鼠，鼹鼠，called water mice by the locals. They live in soft soil and lake beaches. In recent years, the Dongting Lake area received little rain, and lake sides were high and dry for much more time than before. The 700,000 acres of beach area around the lake became a suitable home for the rat population.But in the middle of 2007, heavy rainstorms hit the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and the Dongting Lake beaches were flooded once again. The rats were forcedto move out.A war between man and rodent ( 啮齿类动物) broke out.They used every method available including acctacking the rats, trying to flood them out, digging and poisoning them. Man was finally victorious. But the villagers were not sure if the rats would return. Experts warned people that there were still rats remaining on the floating trees and weeds. Extreme weather may trigger a chain reaction.When one area is hit by floods, another place has a drought. Tongjiang City atthe junction of the Songhua and Heilongjiang Rivers was such a site. 280,000 out of a total of 300,000 acres of crops dried up. In Chenzhou, Hunan, rice fields were punched to the point of cracking.Jiangxi Province was also experiencing a serious drought. The farmers there set their hopes on drought resistant chemicals and waited for rain. But the rain brought by monsoons had already gone. Could it rain again? However, the typhoons in 2007 didn’t bring rain but disasters instead.In Fuzhou, the streets are flooded and violent wind storms are destroying6 everything in sight. In Zhejiang, an 8 kilometer long and 800 meter-wide tornado toured through Longgang Township, and destroyed 156 houses. Finally, typhoon Sepat swept over seven provinces in the south, and caused a loss of 10 billion RMB.But, a later typhoon was no less ferocious. On October 6, the super typhoon Krosa entered the Taiwan Straits at a speed of 15 kilometers per second. It hit Taiwan twice then landed the third time at the junction of Zhejiang and Fujian bringing torrential rains. In Cangnan County, Zhejiang Province, hundreds of people were stranded by floods. It took over 3 hours for soldiers to evacuate the victims. Torrential rains hit Fuzhou, Fujian and Lianjiang. In Daguangban District of Liangjiang,17million acres of reclaimed land were flooded again.The growing number of extreme climate events can be ascribed to global warming, and the ultimate responsibility rests squarely with us. By wastefully burning fuels, we’re sending more and more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. If we’re everto slow, and perhaps even reverse climate change, we must conserve energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. That’s all for Nature and Science on CCTV international. I’m Dang Bing, by for now.练习答案Unit Four Water ProblemsTask One: Water supply suspension in Taizhou, Zhejiang1. Multiple Choices1) C 2) C 3) B 4) B 5) A2.

Because video games are designed to be addictive, and if you get sucked into them, you tend to spend all your time on them and ignore other aspects of life, then it’s a waste of time.No, I don’t agree. Because playing video games is a good form of entertainment that allows people to relax themselves and relieve stress. There are also games that help train the brain and improve memory and other cognitive abilities.Listening as Comprehension05Task1Exercise1：BCDFExercise2:1C 2D 3A06Task2Exercise1:1explosion 2leaders 3ever-increasing 4risingExercise2:1B 2D 3B 4CExercise3:1legit 2pro leagues 3viewership 4.18 5.1.6 Listening as Acquisition09Exercise2: 1into 2break it down 3get sucked into 4seen 5overtake10Exercise3: 1overtake 2got sucked into 3into 4break it down 5saw11Exercise4:1 a waste of time 2a simulated world 3an explosion in the eSports industry 4rising popularity 5bring in massive viewership14Critical ThinkingExerciseI:1pain 2lack 3sleep 4social 5aging 6overdoing ExerciseIII:1.Video games can have beneficial effects. For example, they can help improve a player’s hand-eye coordination, fine motor and spatial skills as the player keeps track of their running targets. In addition, video games can also be educational. Non-English-speaking players report learning English by playing games. Video games can also be used to train surgeons and pilots to improve their professional skills. What’s more, multiplayer games can help players improve their teamwork and cooperation. Many multiplayer games involve cooperation with other online players in order to win. These games encourage playersto make the most of their individual skills to contribute to the team. Video games can cause problems. First, many video games contain violence. Studies show that children who play more violent video games are more likely to have increased aggressive thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and decreased prosocial helping. Second, playing games sitting in front of a screen can do harm to eyesight and physical health. Third, playing games may lead to money wasted when a player needs to purchase extra credits in order to buy a tool he or she needs in the game.2.Video games manufacturers should label each video game based on a rating system like the ESRB rating and provide an accurate and detailed description of the contents in each game for users, particularly to allow parents to choose age-appropriate games for their children.It is better to play video games as part of a group rather than as a solitary activity, to allow players to talk and work together. Many online games are based on social activity and working together. Research has consistently shown that the main reason for playing online games is for the social element.Follow the recommendations by the game manufacturers and/or the service providers (for example, sit at least two feet from the screen, play games in a well-lit room, never have the screen at maximumbrightness, and never engage in gaming when feeling tired).Enjoy downtime and relax with video games in moderation, and also get out there and keep your life diverse as well.Further Exploration15New Report:I:1D 2D 3BII:1officially / disorder 2addiction /clear and present 3overuse/adverse16Conversation:I:1A 2C 3B 4DII:1living 2objectively 3properly 4trend 5diversified17Passage:I:1B 2D 3DII:1.cognitive 2.30 3.strategic 4.fine cational 6.end up 7.accuratelyUnit4:Education:Crossing BordersLead-in:I:Errol is studying overseas because from the second picture we can see that the classroom setting is different from that of China and students in the second picture are mainly foreignersII:1fit in 2freshman 3projects 4open 5bravelyIII:1If I study overseas, the UK might be an ideal destination for me.
