21、uestions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 50 In January 1995, the world witnessed the emergence of a new international economic order with the launching of the World Trade Organization. The WTO, which succeeds the GATT, is expected to strengthen the

22、 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 trade barriers to which the members of the WTO are committed. Und

23、er 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 governing international trade will be more

24、 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 significantly reduce the abusing of such trade

25、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 multilateral rules have been established to cover

26、 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 liberalized, and newly-developed ideas or techn

27、ologies 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 characterized by a change in the structure o

28、f 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 corporation is becoming a principal mechanis

29、m for allocating investment capital and determining the location of production sites throughout much of the world. 51 Between WTO and GATT_. （ A） WTO and GATT govern the international trade at the same time （ B） WTO is the pre-existence of GATT （ C） GATT is the pre-existence of WTO （ D） GATT is more

30、 effective than WTO in some aspects 52 According to this passage, under the WTO, _. （ A） measures of anti-dumping and countervailing were solely used for protectionist reason （ B） it is still easy to protect domestic agricultural sectors from foreign competition （ C） people can enjoy better life （ D

31、） members should reduce their tariff and non-tariffs on products 53 Which of the following is NOT true about the WTO? （ A） WTO has achieved liberalization of international trade in service. （ B） WTO ensures effective settlement of trade dispute. （ C） Under WTO, regulations concerning international t

32、rade can be more strongly enforced. （ D） WTO covers intellectual property rights. 54 It can be inferred from this passage that_. （ A） under GATT some measures can not be effectively enforced （ B） under GATT, the intellectual property right has been properly protected （ C） it is not easy for a countr

33、y to get absorbed by WTO （ D） WTO cannot change the structure of world economy totally 55 Which can be the best title for the passage? （ A） The Launching of WTO and GATT. （ B） The Influence on WTO. （ C） The Superiority of WTO over GATT. （ D） The Influence Caused by WTO. 55 Evolutionary theories. The

34、 Belgian George Lemaitre proposed the idea that about 20, 000 million years ago all the matter in the universe enough, he estimated, to make up a hundred thousand million galaxies was all concentrated in one small mass, which he called the “primeval atom“. This primeval atom exploded for some reason

35、s, 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 again, and this is the state in which the universe is now. There are variations on this theor

36、y: 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 continue to expand? It may be that the universe will continue to expand for ever, But som

37、e 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 may oscillate for ever in this fashion, expanding to its maximum and then contracting ove

38、r 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 away from each other, new material is formed in some ways between the galaxies and makes

39、 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 should all form in one place at one time. How can we decide which of these theories is close

40、r 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 the evolutionary theory is correct, the galaxies were closer together in the past than t

41、hey are now, and so distant galaxies ought to appear to be closer together than nearer ones. According to the steady-state theory there should be no difference. The evidence seems to suggest that there is a difference, that the galaxies were closer together than they are now, and so the evolutionary

42、 theory is partially confirmed and the steady-state theory in its original form at least must be rejected. 56 What do both theories assume to be true? （ A） That new material is continually being formed. （ B） That, in time, the universe will contract. （ C） That the universe is expanding at present. （

43、 D） That “a big bang“ started the expansion. 57 According to Lemaitre, the separate galaxies formed_. （ A） during a pause in the expansion of the universe （ B） at the time of the primeval explosion （ C） and will continue to form for ever （ D） when all the matter in the universe was all concentrated

44、in one small mass 58 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 expand or not. （ C） It is the current state of the universe. （ D） The variations on evolutionary the

45、ories cause the difference. 59 According to Hoyle and his friends at Cambridge, _. （ A） the explosion occurred much earlier than Lemaitre suggested （ B） it is hard to see how matter could be formed in this way （ C） the expansion of the universe is not a real one （ D） new material is continually bein

46、g created 60 We see distant galaxies as they were long, long ago because_. （ A） they were closer together then （ B） the universe has always looked as the same （ C） their light takes so long to reach us （ D） they have travelled such a long way 60 At dawn one morning in early May, Sean Cosgrove is sta

47、shing piles of maps, notes and photocopied documents in his gym bag before heading for West Milford High, a rural school in northernmost New Jersey. On his 30-minute commute, the young former investment banker tries to dream up new ways of lifting the monumentally forgettable Mexican War off the tex

48、tbook page and into his students imaginations. Can he invoke the storied memories of Robert E. Lee, who cut his first military exploits on the plains of Veracuz or will he be met with thundering responses of “Whos Lee“ ? Should he raise James K. Polk out of the mystic chords of memory, and hope, for
