The WTO, which succe

22、eds the GATT, is expected to strengthen the world trading system and to be more effective than the GATT in governing international trade in goods and services in many aspects.First, trade liberalization all over the world is expected to increase via the dramatic reductions in Wade barriers to which

23、the members of the WTO are committed. Under the WTO, members are required to reduce their tariff and non-tariffs on manufacturing goods. In addition, protecting domestic agricultural sectors from foreign competition will become awfully difficult in the new WTO system.Second, rules and regulations go

24、verning international trade will be more strongly enforced. Under the old system of the GATT, there were many cases where trade measures, such as anti-dumping and countervailing duties, were intentionally used solely for protectionist reasons. The WTOs strengthened rules and regulations will signifi

25、cantly reduce the abusing of such trade measures by its member countries. The WTO is also equipped with an improved dispute settlement mechanism. Accordingly, we expect to see a more effective resolution of trade disputes among the member countries in this new trade environment.Third, new multilater

26、al rules have been established to cover areas which the GATT did not address, such as international trade in services and the protection of intellectual property rights. There still remain a number of problems that need to be resolved before international trade in services can be completely liberali

27、zed, and newly-developed ideas or technologies are fairly compensated. However, just the establishment of multilateral rules in these new areas is a distinguished contribution to the progress toward a global free trade system.Along with the launching of the WTO, this new era in world trade is charac

28、terized by a change in the structure of the world economy. Today, a world-wide market for goods and services is rapidly replacing a world economy composed of relatively isolated national markets. Domestic financial markets have been integrated into a truly global system, and the multinational corpor

29、ation is becoming a principal mechanism for allocating investment capital and determining the location of production sites throughout much of the world.（分数：5.00）(1).Between WTO and GATT _.A. WTO and GATT govern the international trade at the same timeB. WTO is the pre-existence of GATTC. GATT is the

30、 pre-existence of WTOD.

31、mpetitionC. people can enjoy better lifeD. members should reduce their tariff and non-tariffs on products（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Which of the following is NOT true about the WTO?A.

WTO covers intellectual property rights.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).It can be inferred from this passage that _.A. under GATT some measures can not be effectively enforcedB. under GATT, the intellectual property right ha

33、s been properly protectedC. it is not easy for a country to get absorbed by WTOD.

The Superiority of WTO over GATT.D. T

34、he Influence Caused by WTO.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Evolutionary theories. The Belgian George Lemaitre proposed the idea that about 20,000 million years ago all the matter in the universeenough, he estimated, to make up a hundred thousand million galaxieswas all concentrated in one sm

35、all mass, which he called the “primeval atom“. This primeval atom exploded for some reasons, sending its matter out in all directions, and as the expansion slowed down, a steady state resulted, at which time the galaxies formed. Something then upset the balance and the universe started expanding aga

36、in, and this is the state in which the universe is now. There are variations on this theory: it may be that there was no steady state. However, Basically, evolutionary theories take it that the universe was formed in one place at one point in time and has been expanding ever since.Will the universe

37、continue to expand? It may be that the universe will continue to expand for ever, But some astronomers believe that the expansion will slow down and finally stop. Thereafter the universe will start to contract until all the matter in it is once again concentrated at one point. Possibly the universe

38、may oscillate for ever in this fashion, expanding to its maximum and then contracting over again.The steady-state theory. Developed at Cambridge by Hoyle, Gold and Bodi, the steady-state theory maintains that the universe as a whole has always looked the same and always will. As the galaxies expand

39、away from each other, new material is formed in some ways between the galaxies and makes up new galaxies to take place of those which have receded. Thus the general distribution of galaxies remains the same. How matter could be formed in this way is hard to see, But no harder than seeing why it shou

40、ld all form in one place at one time.How can we decide which of these theories is closer to the truth? The method is in principle quite simple. Since the very distant galaxies are thousands of millions of light years away, then we are seeing them as they were thousands of millions of years ago. If t

41、he evolutionary theory is correct, the galaxies were closer together in the past than they are now, and so distant galaxies ought to appear to be closer together than nearer ones. According to the steadystate theory there should be no difference.The evidence seems to suggest that there is a differen

42、ce, that the galaxies were closer together than they are now, and so the evolutionary theory is partially confirmed and the steady-state theoryin its original form at leastmust be rejected.（分数：5.00）(1).What do both theories assume to be true?A. That new material is continually being formed.B. That,

43、in time, the universe will contract.C. That the universe is expanding at present.D. That “a big bang“ started the expansion.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).According to Lemaitre, the separate galaxies formed _.A. during a pause in the expansion of the universeB. at the time of the primeval explosionC. and will

44、 continue to form for everD. when all the matter in the universe was all concentrated in one small mass（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).What is the basic difference between the two classes of theories?A. It concerns the place and time of the formation of matter.B. It is whether the universe will continue to exp

45、and or not.C. It is the current state of the universe.D. The variations on evolutionary theories cause the difference.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).According to Hoyle and his friends at Cambridge, _.A. the explosion occurred much earlier than Lemaitre suggestedB. it is hard to see how matter could be formed

46、in this wayC. the expansion of the universe is not a real oneD. new material is continually being created（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).We see distant galaxies as they were long, long ago because _.A. they were closer together thenB. the universe has always looked as the sameC. their light takes so long to re

47、ach usD. they have travelled such a long way（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)At dawn one morning in early May, Sean Cosgrove is stashing piles of maps, notes and photocopied documents in his gym bag before heading for West Milford High, a rural school in northernmost New Jersey.
