25、our environment with reckless abandon. Attempts to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and friendly persuasion have been met by lawsuits, personal and industrial denial and long delays - not only in accepting responsibility, but more importantly, in doing something about it. It see

26、ms that only when the government decides it can afford tax incentives or production sacrifices is there any initiative for change. Where is industrys and our recognition that protecting mankinds great treasure is the single most important responsibility? If ever there will be time for environmental

27、health professionals to come to the frontlines and provide leadership to solve environmental problems, that time is now.We are being asked, and, in fact, the public is demanding that we take positive action. It is our responsibility as professionals in environmental health to make the difference. Ye

28、s, the ecologist, the environmental activists and the conservationists serve to communicate, stimulate thinking and promote behavioral change. However, it is those of us who are paid to make the decisions to develop, improve and enforce environmental standards, I submit, who must lead the charge.We

29、must recognize that environmental health issues do not stop at city limits, county lines, state or even federal boundaries. We can no longer afford to be tunnel-visioned in our approach. We must visualize issues from every perspective to make the objective decisions. We must express our views clearl

30、y to prevent media distortion and public confusion.I believe we have a three-part mission for the present. First, we must continue to press for improvements in the quality of life that people can make for themselves. Second, we must investigate and understand the link between environment and health.

31、 Third, we must be able to communicate technical information in a form that citizens can understand. If we can accomplish these three goals in this decade, maybe we can finally stop environmental degradation, and not merely hold it back. We will then be able to spend pollution dollars truly on preve

32、ntion rather than on bandages.（分数：5.00）(1).We can infer from the first two paragraphs that the industrialists disregard environmental protection chiefly because _.A. they are unaware of the consequences of what they are doingB. they are reluctant to sacrifice their own economic interestsC. time has

33、not yet come for them to put due emphasis on itD. it is difficult for them to take effective measures（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The main task now facing ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists is _.A. to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and persuasionB. to arouse publ

34、ic awareness of the importance of environmental protectionC. to take radical measures to control environmental pollutionD. to improve the quality of life by enforcing environmental standards（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The word “tunnel-visioned“(Para 3, Line 2) most probably means _.A. narrow-minded B. blin

35、d to the factsC. short-sighted D. able to see only one aspect（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the following, according to the author, should play the leading role in the solution of environmental problems?A. Legislation and government intervention.B. The industrys understanding and support.C. The effor

36、ts of environmental health professionals.D. The cooperation of ecologists, environmental activists and conservationists.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph?A. Efforts should be exerted on pollution prevention instead of on remedial measures.B. More mon

37、ey should be spent in order to stop pollution.C. Ordinary citizens have no access to technical information on pollution.D. Environmental degradation will be stopped by the end of this decade.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Consumers and producers obviously make decisions that mold the econom

38、y, but there is a third major element to consider the role of government. Government has a powerful effect on the economy in at least four ways:Direct Services. The postal system, for example, is a federal system serving the entire nation, as is the large and complex military establishment. Converse

39、ly, the construction and maintenance of most highways is the responsibility of the individual states, and the public educational systems, despite a large funding role by the federal government, are primarily paid for by county or city governments. Police and fire protection and sanitation services a

40、re also the responsibilities of local government.Regulation and Control. The government regulates and controls private enterprise in many ways, for the purpose of assuring that business serves the best interests of the people as a whole. Regulation is necessary in areas where private enterprise is g

41、ranted a monopoly, such as in telephone or electric service, or in other areas where there is limited competition, as with railroads or airlines. Public policy permits such companies to make a reasonable profit, but limits their ability to raise prices unfairly (as defined by the regulators), since

42、the public depends on their services. Often control is exercised to protect the public, as for example, when the Food and Drug Administration bans harmful drugs, or requires standards of quality in food. In other industries, government sets guidelines to ensure fair competition without using direct

43、control.Stabilization and Growth. Branches of government, including Congress and such entities as the Federal Reserve Board, attempt to control the extremes of boom and bust, of inflation and depression, by adjusting tax rates (including regulations pertaining to depreciation), the money supply, and

44、 the use of credit. They can also affect the economy through changes in the amount of public spending by the government itself.Direct Assistance. The government provides many kinds of help to businesses and individuals. For example, tariffs permit certain products to remain relatively free of foreig

45、n competition; imports are sometimes taxed so that American products are able to compete better with certain foreign goods. Government also provides aid to farmers by subsidizing prices they receive for their crops. In quite a different area, government supports individuals who cannot adequately car

46、e for themselves, by making grants to working parents with dependent children, by providing medical care for the aged and the indigent, and through social insurance programs to help the unemployed and retirees. Government also supplies relief for the poor and help for the disabled.（分数：5.00）(1).Which
