25、00）_One of the questions coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international developmentcom 1, the coronal wisdom has been that the billion people living in poor countries could never expect tor 2the standar
26、d of living that most of the people in North America enjoy, simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on. At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super-affluence as though there were no limits 3 how much we could consume. Wem 4 o
27、nly 6 percent of the worlds people: yet we consume one third of the worlds resources. As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily fromw 5our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter. But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, we will no longer be abl
28、e to think in 6of “our“ resources and “their“ resources , but only ofc 7resources. As Americans consume such a(n) 8(proportion)share of the worlds resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super-affluence in a world of 9(scarce). We are now reaching the point at wh
29、ich we must carefully examine the presumed link between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumed. If you have only one crust of bread and get another crust of bread, your well-being is greatly enhanced. But if you have a loaf of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesnt
30、 maked 10. In the eyes of most of the world today, Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still more. The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition in, the worlds resources requires that we re-examine the way in which we relate to the rest of the world.（分数：20.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_

It is important that particular needs,
32、such as security, a quiet place to study, and a convenient location, are taken into consideration before a choice is made. Various options available to students are discussed below: 1. Private Rental Accommodation. A single student can either move into an existing household or establish one with fri
33、ends or acquaintances. Rent and expenses such as bonds, electricity, gas, and the telephone are shared equally among the people living in the household. Buying food and cooking is done either individually or on a group basis. Each person is expected to help clean and tidy the shared living space, th
34、at is, the kitchen, bathroom, and living room. Each is responsible for cleaning his or her own room and doing the washing. The best place to start looking is on noticeboards around universities and colleges, or in the windows of nearby coffee shops. Students often advertise for housemates, and those
35、 seeking accommodation should advertise their situation too. Local real estate agents often provide a share service, although there is usually a significant fee for this. A last resort would be the To Let or Share Accommodation sections of the weekend newspapers. A small number of flats and houses a
36、re available through the university or college housing offices, but most are found through local real estate agents. Unfortunately, there is no cheap way to move into a house or flat. When renting, a person is usually required to sign a six-month lease, and pay rent in advance plus a refundable bond
37、. Remember to make allowances for these establishment costs, and include the purchase price of furniture and equipment. Starting from scratch means a rental bond, rent in advance, a telephone bond and connection fee, electricity or gas connection fees, furniture, utensils, appliances, and so on. Eve
38、n moving into an established house can cost more money than most students expect. You should find out about all the extra costs before signing a lease and committing yourself. Moving out before the end of the lease period requires the rent to be paid until a suitable new tenant is found. 2. Lodgings
39、. Lodgings refers to a furnished room in a private home(of a family or elderly person)with use of facilities such as kitchen, bathroom, and laundry. Sometimes cooking facilities and bathroom are separate, but are usually shared. No meals are provided. Students buy their own food, do their own cookin
40、g, clean their rooms, and do their own washing. Use of the telephone in the home is an extra cost, but electricity is usually included in the rent. Rooms for lodgers are always available in suburbs around universities and colleges, but there is an increased demand as institutions begin their first i
41、ntake of new students. 3. Homestays. Homestays are a furnished room and use of facilities in a private home(of a family or elderly person), with dinner and breakfast provided. Some, but not all, provide lunches, bed linen, laundry , service, and weekly room cleaning. It is difficult to find full boa
42、rd accommodation because the number of places listed is limited. A room with use of facilities(own cooking)is easier to find in suburbs close to university and college campuses. The cost for full board is about a third as much again as for property rental arrangements. In summary, finding accommodat
43、ion while you study is a difficult business, and it is recommended that advice be sought wherever possible. Do not underestimate the costs involved: students invariably complain that they overspend. Nonetheless, in the long run, it is probably wise to pay a little extra in order to ensure comfort an
44、d ease while engaged in an all-important study programme.
