问答题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}} Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points) Many people are concerned about the economic condition of developing countries — countries whose average per capita GNP is a fraction of that in more industrialized countries. However, for the developing countries, there exist many obstacles to their economic development. One major obstacle to economic development is population growth. (46) {{U}}The populations of most developing countries grow at a rate much faster than those of industrialized countries, and the population of some of them is so large that there is barely enough fertile land and other resources to support it.{{/U}} Many less developed countries depend extensively on agriculture, adding to the problem. In these countries, an incentive to have many children exists. (47) {{U}}Most farms are worked by families, and children can work in the fields at an early age because most farmers believe that more children means more workers.{{/U}} In addition, having many children ensures the parents that someone will look after them in their old age. Another problem for developing countries is increasing average life expectancy—the average remaining lifetime for persons who reach a certain age. Better education, international aid, and emphasis on health-care facilities help people live longer. A high life expectancy coupled with a high crude birthrate makes it difficult to increase per capita GNP. Another obstacle to economic growth is limited natural resources. No country can develop beyond its resource potential. Unproductive land or a harsh climate can limit economic growth. (48) {{U}}Some countries may be fortunate enough to discover a valuable mineral to finance their economic development, but most focus on agriculture and, as a result, their economic growth is hindered by the shortage of natural resources or energy sources needed for industry.{{/U}} Still another obstacle to economic development is a lack of appropriate education and technology. Any developing countries do not have a highly literate population or the high level of technical skills needed to build an industrial society. In addition, most do not have money to train engineers and scientists. (49) {{U}}Many developing countries cannot even afford to provide free public education for school-age children, and in those that can, not every child is able to take advantage of it because most of them have to work to help feed their families.{{/U}} As a result, much of the population may not have the basic skills needed to continue with higher education when it is offered. Government also can be an obstacle to economic development. A country whose government often changes will have a hard time developing economically. Such constant changes impede long-term planning. (50) {{U}}Economic development is made even more difficult if the political changes occur through violent revolution where industrial facilities may be destroyed.{{/U}}

问答题Since the 19th century, Nathan Hale has been widely viewed as an American hero. He was the first American executed for spying for his country. Statues of him stand in New York City, at Yale University, and at the Central Intelligence Agency"s headquarters. (46) His last words, "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country" indicate his deep devotion to his nation and have been an inspiration to subsequent generations of Americans. In September of 1776, Nathan Hale was a 21-year old captain in the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War. (47) When there was a need for intelligence gathering following the American loss of Long Island, Hale volunteered to cross enemy lines and gather as much information about the British army in New Work as he could. To do that, he disguised himself as a Dutch schoolteacher and made his way to New York from Norwalk, Connecticut. His activities upon arriving at New York remain something of a mystery. It is known that he took notes and made some drawings before attempting to leave the island. Before he could do that, however, he was betrayed. How he was betrayed remains a mystery as well. There are two main accounts of how this happened. One says that one of Hale"s relatives, Samuel Hale, turned him in after recognizing him in a tavern. (48) The other says that Robert Rogers, a British Major, did not believe that Hale was a schoolteacher and that he got Hale to admit he was a spy by pretending to be a spy himself. However it happened, Hale was captured on September 21, 1776. When he was captured, the British found the notes and drawings that Hale had produced. (49) Armed with this evidence, they easily obtained his confession that he was indeed a member of the Continental Army . This made him an uninformed enemy combatant behind enemy lines. Given the rules of war at the time, the British were perfectly justified in hanging him the next morning without a trial. Hale was executed at the tender age of 21. (50) Although Hale"s spying mission ended in failure, his display of patriotism made him a hero among the colonists fighting for independence.

There"s been a warning that China faces a diabetes epidemic that almost one in ten adults now has the disease. Chinese researchers" writing in The New England Journal of Medicine found that most cases were undiagnosed. The scale of the problem revealed by the study has shocked even the researchers themselves. They said rigorous new tests indicated that more than 92 million Chinese adults had diabetes, twice as many as previously thought. Nearly 150 million more were showing early symptoms. The researchers said rapid economic growth was partly to blame, through urbanisation, changed diets and more sedentary life styles. The figures are high because of the size of China"s population and they represent a major public health problem for the authorities in Beijing.
