25、EET 1. 40 Greenspace facilities are contributing to an important extent to the quality of the urban environment. Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject bas to start with the proof of this idem At present it is generally accepted, although more as a

26、self-evident statement than on the base of a closely-reasoned scientific proof. The recognition of the importance of greenspace in the urban environment is a first step on the fight way, this does not mean, however, that sufficient details are known about the functions of greenspace in towns and abo

27、ut the way in which the inhabitants are using these spaces. As to this rather complex subject I shall, within the scope of this lecture, enter into one aspect only, namely the re-creative function of greenspace facilities. The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation which f

28、or many years has been used in town and country planning, has in my opinion resulted in disproportionate attention for forms of recreation far from home, whereas there was relatively little attention for improvement of recreative possibilities in the direct neighbourhood of the home. We have come to

29、 the conclusion that this is not right, because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working, is used for activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street-door of the house. The urban environment has to offer as m

30、any recreation activities as possible, and the design of these has to be such that more obligatory activities can also have a recreative aspect. The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district, if the children cannot be allowed to play in the

31、 streets because the risks of traffic are too great, if during shopping you can nowhere find a spot of enjoying for a moment the nice weather, in short, if you only feel yourself at home after the street-door of your house is closed after you. 41 According to the author, the importance of greenspace

32、 in the urban environment _. （ A） is still unknown （ B） is being Closely studied （ C） is usually neglected （ D） has been widely accepted 42 The theoretical separation of living, working, traffic and recreation has led to _. （ A） the disproportion of recreation facilities in the neighbourhood （ B） th

33、e location of recreation facilities far from home （ C） relatively little attention for recreative possibilities （ D） the improvement of recreative possibilities in the neighbourhood 43 The author suggests that the recreative possibilities of greenspace Should ha provided _. （ A） in special areas （ B

34、） in the suburbs （ C） in the neighbourhood of the house （ D） in gardens and parks 44 According to the author, greenspace facilities should be designed in such a way that _. （ A） more obligatory activities might take on a recreative aspect （ B） more and more people might have access to them （ C） an i

35、ncreasing number of recreative activities might be developed （ D） recreative activities might be brought into our homes 45 The main idea of this passage is that _. （ A） better use of greenspace facilities should be made so as to improve the quality of our life （ B） attention must be directed to the

36、improvement of recreative possibilities （ C） the urban environment is providing more recreation activities than it did many years ago （ D） priority must be given to the development of obligatory activities 45 Pursuing free trade through WTO has many attractions. Countries bind themselves and their t

37、rading partners to transparent and non-discriminatory trade rules, which the WTO then enforces even handedly. Since most governments operate on the premise that opening domestic markets is a concession to be traded for access to foreign markets, multilateral liberalization is often the most effectiv

38、e route to free trade. A successful WTO round requires two big bargains to be struck: a transatlantic deal between America and the EU and a north-south deal between the rich and the poor. Yet at Seattle this year there is a long way to go before such broad bargains can be considered, let alone struc

39、k. America wants a few priority issues to be settled. Its list includes an extension of the duty-free status of e-commerce, a broader IT pact, reform of the WTO dispute settlements system, increased WTO transparency and the phase out of tariffs in eight sectors including chemicals, energy products a

40、nd environmental products. The EU on the other hand professes to want a more comprehensive approach that focuses on removing tariff peaks for such imports as textiles, glass and footwear, but would preserve tariff preferences for developing countries. The biggest obstacle may be the insistence of ma

41、ny developing countries that they will block further liberalization until their gripes over the Uruguay round are addressed They want their obligations in areas such as intellectual property, investor protection, subsidies and anti-dumping to be eased. They argue that the Uruguay round has failed to

42、 deliver expected benefits in such areas as agriculture and textiles. Though by no means a monolithic block, the developing countries share a feeling that whatever the promise of liberalization at the WTO, rich countries will Conspire to keep their markets closed. Indeed, the EU insists that freeing

43、 trade should be “controlled, steered and managed according to the concerns of EU citizens“. That is in keeping with a view, widespread on the continent, that “a protectionist trade policy is a price readily paid for political objectives“. However great these obstacles are, they could be overcome if

44、 America were still leading the drive for freer world trade. With its economy doing well, greater access to foreign markets seems a less pressing priority. The Clinton administration is unwilling to make politically painful concessions required to achieve that aim. So there is a possibility that the

45、 Seattle round will turn out to be a fiasco. If that happens, it will encourage the anti-WTO groups to go on the offensive. America, the EU and Japan would increasingly be tempted by managed trade. 46 The WTOs transparent and non-discriminatory rules require all member countries to _. （ A） exchange

46、domestic markets for foreign markets （ B） make concessions in foreign trade （ C） adopt the most effective route to free trade （ D） enforce trade policies even handedly 47 At Seattle this year, the difference between America and the EU is over _. （ A） e-commerce （ B） WTO transparency （ C） agenda （ D）

47、 tariffs 48 The developing countries threaten to block further liberalization because they _. （ A） are now conspiring to keep their markets closed （ B） want their problems and complaints to be dealt with first （ C） cannot afford to deliver benefits in agriculture and textile （ D） want no obligations

48、 in intellectual property and anti-dumping 49 “Managed trade“ in the last Sentence probably means _. （ A） market management （ B） trade protectionism （ C） trade concession （ D） market priority 50 The author of the passage seems to be _ about the prospect of globalization and free trade. （ A） optimist

49、ic （ B） doubtful （ C） impartial （ D） vague 50 To paraphrase 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke, “all that is needed for the triumph of a misguided cause is that good people do nothing.“ One such cause now seeks to end biomedical research because of the theory that animals have rights ruling out their use in research. Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates, whose ar
