At the top of the agenda
30、were fundamental improvements in the training of operators and the design of control systems for reactors. The International Atomic Energy Agency also chose the meeting on the Chernobyl accident to announce it would step up its safety checks of nuclear power stations. Up to that time, with more than
31、 300 nuclear power plants operating worldwide, the IAEA had sent safety review teams to inspect stations in only nine countries, mostly in the Third World. Now the emphasis would switch to reactors in the developed world, including the Soviet Union, US and Britain.According to regulations, an intern
32、ational safety review could be undertaken by the IAEA only following a formal request from a member country. However, the meeting in Vienna produced a list of 14 recommendations for future action following the Soviet report on Chernobyl. The IAEA meeting said that better fire protection and more adv
33、anced techniques for firefighting were needed. The possibility of developing lightweight clothing to protect firefighters from radiation was of particular interest; so was the use of robot firefighters. The Soviet Union used minerals and sand to damp down the fires. Both Soviet and Western experts a
34、greed there was no way of knowing in advance if this would work. Luckily, it did.Decontamination (去除放射性污染) was another area where the international nuclear community was anxious to learn more from Chernohyl. The Soviet clean-up involved treating buildings and the ground around the reactor with speci
35、al chemicals to reduce the spread of radioactive dust. Heavily contaminated soil was removed.At the final press conference about the Chemohyl accident, the leader of the Soviet delegation (代表团) claimed that Chernobyl would not be repeated. There would have to be greater efforts to make sure that the
36、 design of nuclear plants eliminated the possibility of errors by operatorns. This would include making it difficult to override (使无效) safety systems, as happened at Chernobyl. It would also mean greater use of simulators (模拟装置) to train operators.（分数：8.00）(1).According to paragraph 1, nuclear exper
37、ts thought that in order to make nuclear power safer the first thing to do should be _.（分数：2.00）A.to improve the training of operators and the design of the reactors control systemsB.to inspect nuclear power plants in the Third WorldC.to send safety review teams to all the developed countriesD.to ho
38、ld a meeting on the Chernobyl accident(2).At the meeting on the Chernohyl accident , the IAEA said that it would _.（分数：2.00）A.inspect all the nuclear power plants in the worldB.send more safety review teams to the developing countriesC.inspect nuclear power stations in another 9 countriesD.pay much
39、more attention to the safety conditions of the reactors in the developed countries(3).According to paragraph 2, in the Chernohyl accident _.（分数：2.00）A.the firefighters wore special lightweight clothing to protect themselves from radiationB.the fire was extinguished by robot firefightersC.nothing was
40、 used to put out the fire because no one knew what could be usedD.minerals and sand were used to put out the fire(4).In the last two sentences of paragraph 2, both “this“ and “it“ refer to _.（分数：2.00）A.the fireB.the sandC.the use of minerals and sand to put out the fireD.the use of robot firefighter
41、s to put out the fireBPassage Two/BBritains government raises millions of pounds each year from the National Lottery (抽奖) and some of this money is used as an additional allowance for the arts. But this money can only be spent on “capital projects“, and not on an institutions day-to-day expenses.Lot
42、tery money has been made available for many exciting new building projects to improve theatres, galleries and museums. But the project which has received the most publicity is the 78 million renewal on the Royal Opera House in Londons Covent Garden. The House is the home of Britains greatest opera c
43、ompany, as well as the Royal Ballet(芭蕾舞团). Its also considered to be the best arts institutions - tickets to the opera can cost up to 200 - and not everyone is happy that so much lottery money is being used for the benefit of a rich minority.But since builders moved into the Royal Opera House last J
44、uly, that controversy has been overshadowed by a more serious crisis: the opera company is facing financial collapse.According to a special investigation, the crisis is the result of serious mismanagement by Opera House staff, and there have been calls for its allowance to be withdrawn completely. N
45、ow, the Opera House has to wait to hear from a government working party about its future survival.（分数：8.00）(1).Which Of the followings renewal has received the publics attention most?（分数：2.00）A.The gallery.B.The museum.C.The Royal Opera House.D.The park.(2).Some people dont think it good to spend so
