24、ollowing four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D . Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 40 On the past few days, two nations with large numbers of AIDS-infected people have announced plans to distribute a triple cocktail of life-prolonging antiretroviral drugs free

25、to all who need it. China has been treating 5,000 patients and plans to expand the program to cover everyone in the country. South Africas cabinet approved a plan that includes drugs for all who need them. China spent years denying it had an AIDS problem. Until recently, South Africas top officials

26、minimized the epidemic, questioned whether H. I. V. was the cause of AIDS and labeled antiretroviral drugs “poisons“. Both countries have now taken a courageous and essential step. But only one is likely to succeed. Indeed, Chinas program is already failing. One in five Chinese who have received ant

27、iretroviral drugs has already stopped taking them, which can lead to the creation of drug-resistant strains of the virus. China has only about 100 doctors nationwide with experience in treating AIDS. Health workers are simply handing patients bottles of pills. Most patients receive no counseling on

28、how to take them or deal with their side effects, and little follow-up monitoring. China is also still determined to crack down on high-risk groups such as prostitutes and drug users, which drives the epidemic underground. Even recently, provincial police were beating AIDS patients protesting for tr

29、eatment. Treating AIDS requires a network of health care workers and a political climate that does not stigmatize and discriminate against those who come forward. South Africas government, by contrast, understands that handing out pills is only part of the solution. The program, which will cost abou

30、t 680 million a year by 2007, will spend only a third of its budget on buying drugs. Much of the money will go instead to establishing clinics and training thousands of doctors, nurses, counselors and other workers to staff them. The government plans to have a well-run clinic in every district by th

31、e end of the year, and in every municipality by the end of 2008. South Africa has an influential national network of campaigners for AIDS treatment whose pres- sure and advice were crucial to devising the plan, and who will be crucial to its success. It also had help from the foundation led by forme

32、r President Bill Clinton, which negotiated better prices for AIDS medicine. Chinas government, by contrast, made its decisions in secret and has yet to permit such widespread citizen activism on AIDS. But China has one huge advantage over South Africa: while one in nine South Africans has the AIDS v

33、irus, Chinas epidemic is far smaller. Now that China has decided to treat AIDS, it has a chance to learn from other nations before the deluge. 41 The author write this passage mainly to_. （ A） bring up some facts about AIDS preventing and curing in the world. （ B） urge Chinese government to do somet

34、hing about AIDS. （ C） compare two countries in the AIDS-related work. （ D） say something about the development in the AIDS preventing method. 42 The word “stigmatize“ in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to_. （ A） criticize. （ B） abort. （ C） depreciate. （ D） disregard. 43 It can be inferred from the

35、 passage that China fall behind South Africa because _. （ A） there are not enough medical experts in AIDS. （ B） the governments attitude toward AIDS problem is still to be changed. （ C） of the lack of experience. （ D） china have not enough money. 44 The author says that South Africa is doing better

36、than China because_. （ A） it has more medical experts in AIDS than China. （ B） its government shows more enthusiasm. （ C） it devotes more money to this cause. （ D） its population of patients is decreasing. 45 The authors attitude towards the future of Chinas AIDS problem might be described as one of

37、_. （ A） worried. （ B） indifferent. （ C） optimistic. （ D） frustrated. 45 The Cold War may be over in Europe, but it is very much still with us in Asia. The North- South division on the Korean Peninsula is still possibly the worlds most dangerous political standoff. Not far behind is the tension betwe

38、en China and Taiwan. A civil war between the two was frozen just short of completion more than a half century ago because of U. S. political interests and military might. Taiwans authoritarian and repressive regime was for decades a mirror image of that of the main- land, but over the last 20 years

39、both have taken enormous steps, with Taiwan leading the charge, to- ward opening up their markets, economies and the societies. Taiwan is a highly successful tiger economy, accounting for more than 10 percent of the worlds production of information-technology components. With both China and Taiwan m

40、embers of the World Trade Organization, the European Commission rightly opened a European Trade and Economic office almost 12 months ago in Taipei. There is no doubt that the European Union should continue to develop industrial and economic links with Tai- wan and that the EU should also welcome the

41、 emerging multiparty democracy and respect for human rights on the island. But this should not blind Europe to the wider economic and political picture in Asia. China will and should be one of the engines of the world economy in this century. In 2003 the Chinese economy, with its 1.3 billion people,

42、 grew at nearly 10 percent, and this is believed to be a conservative estimate. By contrast, the European Central Bank last June predicted the eurozones growth at 1.1 to 2.1 percent for 2004. Chinas manufacturing sector grew by 17 percent last year when most of the European manufacturing sector seem

43、ed to be in decline. It is in all of our interests that this growth continues and that a solid EU-China partnership is developed. This prospect will be endangered only if China is provoked into an arms race with its neighbors. One way of ratcheting up the tension would be to call into doubt the one

44、China principle that the EU has supported for so long. Those supporting Taiwans independence threaten to do exactly that. Yes, the EU should ensure Taiwan is not forced into any shotgun marriage with China, but equally, we should not encourage a destabilization of the status quo. The 23 million Taiw

45、anese should be looking toward an accommodation with China, rather than using interests within the United States and EU to promote an agenda that would threaten us all. 46 This passage may be_. （ A） a report on the annual meeting of the UN. （ B） a research report by a socialist for the government. （

46、 C） an arguing paper on a publication . （ D） a pamphlet delivered to the public. 47 The word “shotgun marriage with China“ in paragraph 5 could be explained as _. （ A） come to an union after bitter wars. （ B） a kind of union betraying the willing of both countries. （ C） a kind of union forced by oth

47、ers. （ D） a kind of union forced by one of the two countries. 48 Compared to America, the author believe that which of the following factor contribute most the EUs expectation that China has a peaceful relationship with Taiwan? （ A） Political reasons. （ B） Economical reasons. （ C） Friendship with bo

48、th China and Taiwan. （ D） The worlds peace. 49 The author suggested that Taiwanese should _. （ A） develop a good relationship with China. （ B） take advantage of America and EU to threat China. （ C） keep the stability of the situation. （ D） remain silent whatever happened. 50 According to the passage

49、, which of the following is true? （ A） America could have do something to end the cold war. （ B） Taiwan would have developed slower if it were not for the change of the government. （ C） China is developing faster than Taiwan now. （ D） EU is in more close relation with China today. 50 When the world was a simpler place, the rich were fat, the poor were thin, and right-thinking people worried about h
