I was having breakfast at a hotel very near Liverpool Street Station when the first explosion

17、was detonated. Hearing the sirens and seeing Londons emergency personnel respond to the bombings brought back vivid memories of the events of Sept. 11, 2001.People have not forgotten Sept. 11, 2001. Americans can still recall exactly where they were and what they were doing on that fateful day. But

18、its understandable that some remember it as historical fact, lacking the painful impact and immediacy they originally felt. If we allow a dimming of purpose-to eliminate terrorism-these terrorist attacks in London serve as another chilling reminder that were still at war.Something constructive emerg

19、es from these tragic, horrible and unexplainable attacks. It is the message that we must remain vigilant in opposing an enemy who intentionally targets innocent civilians.Since Sept. 11, 2001, the civilized nations of the world have remained mostly united in opposing these despicable, wanton acts of

20、 terror. We have had some great successes in that effort. We have arrested perpetrators and plotters, and we have foiled planned attacks. We have reduced the power and scope of those who despise freedom and democracy.The effort must continue. As we learned Thursday-and in Madrid and Bali-the enemies

21、 of freedom have not lost their resolve. We must not lose ours.Ultimately, the only real defense from terrorist attacks is being able to find out about them in advance. Intelligence gathering has improved but needs to be even stronger, including consistently improving human intelligence and patrol.

22、Police and ordinary citizens must be alert and encouraged to convey information.Once a terrorist incident does occur, theres no such thing as a perfect response. By definition, a terrorist attack means people are being hurt or killed. But by studying the response to past attacks, we can better prepa

23、re to handle those in the future.London is one of the most secure cities in the world, steeped in years of dealing with terrorism. The citys preparation and resolve was evident on Thursday. I am very impressed by Londons reaction to the bombings. Both the emergency personnel and the citizens seemed

24、prepared. The first responders were rapid, well-directed, organized and professional, in accordance with obviously well-tested plans.As for the citizens, at least a dozen people told me in one way or another, “We knew this was going to happen; it was just a question of when.“That is not only a reali

25、stic assessment; it also is a mindset that just might save lives. Political, business and community leaders are sometimes reluctant to talk about terrorism or stage drills to prepare their response because they dont want to frighten or upset people. But thats a mistake. People react to emergencies m

26、ore effectively when theyre not shocked by them.Tony Blair and London Mayor Ken Livingstone have made preparedness a priority, and their efforts clearly paid off during Thursdays response to the attacks.Theres another benefit to preparing for terrorism in advance. Part of the damage the terrorists h

27、ope to inflict is the emotional reaction in the wake of the destruction. The reason its called “terrorism“ is that they want fear and its debilitating effects to linger long after the smoke has cleared.By preparing citizens for the possibility of a terrorist attack, leaders can help minimize the emo

28、tional response in the wake of the destruction.Finally, Thursdays attacks demonstrate that we must remain committed to confronting and eliminating terrorism. There are those who assert that the efforts to eliminate terror are somehow provoking the terrorists. That is wrong. The terrorism have been a

29、ttacking innocent people long before Sept. 11, 2001, or the wars in Afghanistan or Iraq.Seeing Prime Minister Blair speak so forcefully, with President Bush, President Jacques Chirac and other world leaders right behind him, was encouraging. Lets remember the unity the world shared after the attacks

30、 of Sept. 11, 2001.Free nations can and will disagree. But let us always remember that free people must be steadfast and resilient in defending our way of life.（分数：6.00）(1).The terrorist attack in London conveys to us the message thatA. people in London did not feel painful.B. we must be on the aler

31、t for terrorism.C. we should stay at home to avoid terrorism.D. the effort at anti-terrorism was in vain.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).In the authors opinion, which of the following is NOT the success weve achieved in the effort to fight againt terrorist attack?A. We have arrested perpetrators and plotters.B

32、. We have prevented planned attacks.C. We have combated and eliminated terrorism.D. We have reduced the power and scope of terrorists.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the way to defend terrorist attacks?A. Improving human intelligence and patrol. B. Alerti

33、ng police and citizens to terrorism.C. Finding out terrorists before they attack. D. Studying the response to past attacks.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The sentence “. steeped in years of dealing with terrorism“ in the 8th paragraph means thatA. London has been engaged in anti-terrorism for years.B. London

34、hasnt witnessed terrorism for years.C. London has been targeted by terrorists for years.D. London has been soaked in terrorist attacks for years.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The citizens emotional response after the terrorist attack can be reduced byA. leaders good organization. B. preparing for terrorism i

35、n advance.C. escaping from the attack in time. D. confronting terrorism positively.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(6).A suitable title for the passage would beA. July 7th Terrorist Attack in London. B. The war against terrorism.C. Terrorism after Sept.11, 2001. D. Lessons from terrorist attack in London.（分数：1.00）

36、A.B.C.D.七、TEXT B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Researchers who picked up and analyzed wild chimp droppings said on Thursday they had shown how the AIDS virus originated in wild apes in Cameroon and then spread in humans across Africa and eventually the world. Their study, published in the journal Science, supports

37、other studies that suggest people somehow caught the deadly human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from chimpanzees, perhaps by killing and eating them.“It says that the chimpanzee group that gave rise to HIV. this chimp community resides in Cameroon,“ said Beatrice Hahn of the University of Alabama, wh

38、o led the study. “But that doesnt mean the epidemic originated there because it didnt,“ Hahn, who has been studying the genetic origin of HIV for years, said in a telephone interview.“We actually know where the epidemic took off. The epidemic took off in Kinshasa, in Brazzaville.“ Kinshasa is in the

39、 Democratic Republic Congo, formerly Zaire, and faces Brazzaville, in Congo, across the Congo River. Studies have traced HIV to a man who gave a blood sample in 1959 in Kinshasa, then called Leopoldville. Later analysis found the AIDS virus.In people, HIV leads to AIDS but chimps have a version call

40、ed simian immune deficiency virus (SIV) that causes them no harm. Humans are the only animals naturally susceptible to HIV. AIDS was only identified 25 years ago. The virus now infects 40 million people around the world and has killed 25 million. Spread in blood, sexual contact and from mother to ch

41、ild during birth or breastfeeding, HIV has no cure and there is no vaccine, although drug cocktails can control it.And like so many new infections, AIDS appears to have been passed to humans from animals they slaughtered. SIV has been found in captive chimps but Hahn wanted to show it could be found

42、 in the wild too. Her international team got the cooperation of the government in Cameroon and they hired skilled trackers.“The chimps in that area are hunted. Its certainly impossible to see them. It is hard to track them and find these materials,“ she said. But the trackers managed to collect 599

43、samples of droppings. Hatms lab found DNA, identified each individual chimp and then found evidence of the virus.“We went to 10 field sites and we found evidence of infection in five. We were able to identify a total of 16 infected chimps and we were able to get viral sequences from all of them,“ Ha

44、hn said. Up to 35 percent of the apes in some communities were infected. Not only that, they could find different varieties, called clades, of the virus.“We found some of the clades were really, really very closely related to the human virus and others were not,“ she said. Chimps separated by a rive

45、r were infected with different clades, Hahn said. And a river may have carried the virus into the human population. “So how do you get from southern Cameroon to the Democratic Republic of Congo?“ Hahn asked. “Some human must have done so. There is a river that goes from that southeastern comer of Ca

46、meroon down to the Congo River.“Ivory and hardwood traders used the Sangha River in the 1930s, when the original human-to-human transmission is believed to have happened. Hatms study suggests the virus passed from chimpanzees to people more than once. “We dont really know how these transmissions occ

47、urred,“ Hahn said.“We know that you dont get it petting a chimp, or from a toilet seat, just like you cant get HIV from a toilet seat. It requires exposure to infected blood and infected body fluids. So if you get bitten by an angry chimp while you are hunting it, which could do it.“Hahns study only

48、 applies the HIV group M, which is the main strain of the virus responsible for the AIDS pandemic. “Its quite possible that still other (chimpanzee SIV) lineages exist that could pose risks for human infection and prove problematic for HIV diagnostic and vaccines,“ her team wrote.（分数：5.00）(1).Accord

49、ing to Hahn, the HIV epidemic originated inA. Cameroon. B. Kinshasa and Brazzaville.C. Congo River. D. Nile River.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).From the description in the passage, we learn thatA. monkeys are also susceptible to HIV.B.
