Because they dont have to. No more than that because theyre used to not paying for it. Thats the conventional wisdom. Slate,

12、 Microsofts online politics-and-culture magazine, is an oft-cited example of the failed attempts to charge a fee for access to content. So far, for most publishers, it hasnt worked. But nothing on the Web is a done deal. In September graphics-soft-ware powerhouse Adobe announced new applications tha

13、t integrate commerce into downloading books and articles online, with Simon if you want to help poor farmers, you can do your bit by buying Fairtrade products; or you can express a dislike of evil multinational companies and rampant globalization by buying only local produce. And the best bit is tha

14、t shopping, unlike voting, is fun; so you can do good and enjoy yourself at the same time.Sadly, its not that easy. (41) . People who want to make the world a better place cannot do so by shifting their shopping habits: transforming the planet requires duller disciplines, like politics.Organic food,

15、 which is grown without man-made pesticides and fertilisers, is generally assumed to be more environmentally friendly than conventional intensive farming, which is heavily reliant on chemical inputs. But it all depends on what you mean by “environmentally friendly“. Farming is inherently bad for the

16、 environment: since humans took it up around 11 000 years ago, the result has been deforestation on a massive scale.(42) . Organic methods, which rely on crop rotation, manure and compost in place of fertiliser, are far less intensive. So producing the worlds current agricultural output organically

17、would require several times as much land as is currently cultivated. There wouldnt be much room left for the rainforest.Fairtrade food is designed to raise poor farmers incomes. It is sold at a higher price than ordinary food, with a subsidy passed back to the farmer. But prices of agricultural comm

18、odities are low because of overproduction, (43) .Surely the case for local food, produced as close as possible to the consumer in order to minimise “food miles“ and, by extension, carbon emissions, is clear? Surprisingly, it is not. A study of Britains food system found that nearly half of food-vehi

19、cle miles (i. e. , miles travelled by vehicles carrying food) were driven by cars going to and from the shops. Most people live closer to a supermarket than a farmers market, so more local food could mean more food-vehicle miles. Moving food around in big, carefully packed lorries, as supermarkets d

20、o, may in fact be the most efficient way to transport the stuffWhats more, once the energy used in production as well as transport is taken into account, local food may turn out to be even less green. (44) . And the local-food movements aims, of course, contradict those of the Fairtrade movement, by

21、 discouraging rich-country consumers from buying poor-country produce. But since the local-food movement looks suspiciously like old-fashioned protectionism masquerading as concern for the environment, helping poor countries is presumably not the point.(45) . The problems lie in the means, not the e

22、nds. The best thing about the spread of the ethical-food movement is that it offers grounds for hope. It sends a signal that there is an enormous appetite for change and widespread frustration that governments are not doing enough to preserve the environment, reform world trade or encourage developm

23、ent.A The aims of much of the ethical-food movement-to protect the environment, to encourage development and to redress the distortions in global trade-are admirable.B By maintaining the price, the Fairtrade system encourages farmers to produce more of these commodities rather than diversifying into

24、 other crops and so depresses prices-thus achieving, for most farmers, exactly the opposite of what the initiative is intended to do.C Proper free trade would be by far the best way to help,poor farmers. Taxing carbon would price the cost of emissions into the price of goods, and retailers would the

25、n have an incentive to source locally if it saved energy.D There are good reasons to doubt the claims made about three of the most popular varieties of “ethical“ food: organic food, Fairtrade food and local food.E But following the “green revolution“ of the 1960s greater use of chemical fertiliser h

26、as tripled grain yields with very little increase in the area of land under cultivation.F And since only a small fraction of the mark-up on Fairtrade foods actually goes to the farmer-most goes to the retailer-the system gives rich consumers an inflated impression of their largesse and makes allevia

27、ting poverty seem too easy.G Producing lamb in New Zealand and shipping it to Britain uses less energy than producing British lamb, because fanning in New Zealand is less energy-intensive.（分数：10.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_九、Part C(总题数：1，分数：10.00)“Popular art“ has a number of meanings, imp

28、ossible to define with any precision, which range from folklore to junk, with poles being clear enough but the middle tending to blur. The Hollywood Western of the 1930s, for example, has elements of folklore, but is closer to junk than to high art or folk art. There can be great trash, just as ther

29、e is bad high art. The musicals of George Gershwin are great popular art, never aspiring to high art. Schubert and Brahms, however, used elements of popular music-folk themes-in works clearly intended as high art. The case of Verdi is a different one : he took a popular genre- bourgeois melodrama se

30、t to music (an accurate definition of nineteenth-century opera)- and, without altering its fundamental nature, transmuted it into high art. (47) This remains one of the greatest achievements in music, and one that cannot be fully appreciated without recognizing the essential trashiness of the genre.

31、As an example of such a transmutation, consider what Verdi made of the typical political elements of nineteenth-century opera. (48) Generally in the plots of these operas, a hero or heroine-usually portrayed only as an individual, unrestrained by class-is caught between the immoral corruption of the

32、 aristocracy and the doctrinaire rigidity of the leaders of the civilians. Verdi transforms this naive and unlike formulation with music of extraordinary energy and rhythmic vitality, music more subtle than it seems at first hearing. There are scenes and arias that still sound like calls to arms and

33、 were clearly understood as such when they were first performed. Such pieces lend an immediacy to the otherwise veiled political message of these operas and call up feelings beyond those of the opera itself.Or consider Verdi s treatment of character. (49) Before Verdi, there were rarely any characte

34、rs at all in musical drama, only a series of situations which allowed the singers to express a series of emotional state. Any attempt to find coherent psychological portrayal in these operas is misplaced ingenuity. The only coherence was the singer s vocal technique: when the cast changed, new arias

35、 were almost always substituted, generally adapted from other operas. Verdi s characters, on the other hand, have genuine consistency and integrity, even if, in many cases, the consistency is that of pasteboard melodrama. The integrity of the character is achieved through the music: (50) once he had

36、 become established, Verdi did not rewrite his music for different singers or allow alterations or substitutions of somebody elses arias in one of his operas, as every eighteenth-century composer had done. When he revised an opera, it was only for dramatic economy and effectiveness.（分数：10.00）_十、Sect

45、(1).A condition B situation C reverse D contrast（分数：0.50）A.B.C. D.解析：试题考点 上下文语意关系与名词词义辨析。解题思路 本题空格位于第一段最后一句末，前一句意为“国际捕鲸委员会保留捕鲸禁令的决定并不意味着捕杀将会终止”。紧接着空格所在句指出“恰恰_”，根据一般行文习惯，且大致浏览后文可知，此处意在表达“情况恰好相反”。四个选项中，只有 reverse 可表达此含义，the reverse 意为“相反的事物”，quite the reverse 为固定用法，意为“情况恰恰相反”。干扰排除 选项Acondition 意为“条件；状

46、况”，选项Bsituation 意为“情况；情形”，将两项代入文中意为“情况正是如此”，即“IWC 保留禁捕令的决定会终止捕鲸行为”，这与下文作者对捕鲸行为的种种担忧不符，故排除。选项Dcontrast 意为“反差；对比；对照”，无法与空格前的内容形成符合文意的搭配，也排除。(2).A overuse B concern C attention D stress（分数：0.50）A. B.C.D.解析：试题考点 上下文语意关系和名词词义辨析。解题思路 本题空格位于修饰 phrase 的定语从中，a phrase 指代前面的 save the whale“拯救鲸鱼”，该定语从句意为“一个因_而变得令人厌烦的说法”。再看下文 in the year 2010, it should be pressed _ service again, to fight the whaling nations，此处的 it 指代上文的口号 “Save the Whale“，即这一口号在 2010 年被再次提起以反对捕鲸国家，由此可知，这一口号以前曾被使用过。将四个选项代入文中，可知选项A在感情色彩和语意上都最合适，overuse 意为“过
