32、e international couriers are showing signs of exhaustion, EMS (Express Mail Service), the generic name for the courier services of post offices, seems to be finding its stride. Known as Datapost in Britain, as Chronopost in France, and as A1-Barid al-Mumtaz in Saudi Arabia, EMS is now second in the

33、international courier business (jointly with TNT Skypack). Last year it delivered 5.6 million items, weighing less than 20 kilograms each, across borders. That and its annual growth rate of around 5 percent have worried DHL, the market leader, enough for it to counter-attack in the Courts.On October

34、 26, a Dutch judge ruled against DHL on all three counts filed against the Dutch post office: that the three-initial name was too close to DHLs; that the orange lines in the EMS logo were too similar to DHLs dark red ones; and that the claim to the widest route system in the world was unfounded. DHL

35、 has threatened the Swiss post office with similar action, but it may reconsider after the Dutch ruling.EMS has some advantages over the private couriers. One is a dense ready-made network of offices, especially in Europe, the avowed target area of the private couriers. Another advantage is a long t

36、radition of working with customs authorities. In a business where minutes count, it pays to have good friends at customs. That advantage particularly irritates the private couriers because there is no legal way to combat such unquantifiable coziness.The private courier services are also annoyed beca

37、use in countries like Switzerland and Italy, where the post office is officially a monopoly, they pay it a fee. In Switzerland DHL says it pays more than SFr lm ($ 708,000) “to the competition“ each year. In France the couriers have won a battle for exoneration.Although governments are under little

38、pressure to keep prices artificially low, EMS is often cheaper than the private couriers, but not always. A recent test in Britain (on a domestic route) showed Datapost about halfway between the least and the most expensive, but gave it full marks for speed and service.Each national EMS is free to s

39、et its rates and follow its own rules on things like bulk discounts. The Universal Postal Union, based in Berne, determines how costs and revenues are split between sending and receiving countries, and standardizes procedures. More than 100 postal administrations have linked into the systemand more

40、are coming, including Russias. That makes the feisty EMS particularly happy since its rivals have not been allowed to serve anywhere in Russia.（分数：10.00）(1).The passage focuses primarily on _.A. problems of post offices in BritainB. the new courier serviceEMSC. the competition between private and in

47、services in Russia.C. The postal administration in Russia linked with the network long ago.D. Russia was quite hesitant in the international cooperation.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.Many researchers have found greater dependence and obedience in very young girls, greater autonomy and activity in boys. When a ba

48、rrier is set up to separate children from their mothers, boys try to knock it down; girls cry helplessly. There is little doubt that mothers encouragement or discouragementof such behavior plays a major role in determining adult personality. For example, a mother often stimulates male autonomy by th

49、rowing a toy far away from her young son, thus silently suggesting to him that he leaves her to get it.Animal studies suggest that there may be a biological factor in material behavior; mothers of some monkeys punish their male babies earlier and more often than their female offspring; they also touch their female babies more often and act more protectively toward them.As for the controversial quest
