问答题{{B}} Passage 4 {{/B}} Thank you, sir. Thank you, Mr. President. It is quite an honor to be introduced by your dad. This has got to be a historic moment: father and son, two Presidents, opening up an embassy. I suspect it's the first, although I must confess I haven't done a lot of research into the itinerary of the Adams boys. // My dad was a fabulous President. And I tell people one reason why was not only did he know what he was doing, he was a fabulous father. Mr. Ambassador, honored guests, Laura and I, and my brother and my sister, are proud to be here with our dad as we open and dedicate this new embassy. No doubt this is an impressive complex. To me it speaks of the importance of our relations with China. It reflects the solid foundation underpinning our relations. It is a commitment to strengthen that foundation for years to come. // I thank all those who designed and built the embassy, and all those who work here to advance the interests and values of our great nation. Dad and I are honored that Counselor Dai has joined us; and Minister Xie; Ambassador Zhou—who, by the way, opened a new Chinese embassy in Washington, D. C. , designed by I. M. Pei a couple weeks ago. We appreciate our friend Anne Johnson being here, he is the Director of the Art in Embassies Program. Dr. Kissinger, thanks for coming. // It takes a special band to open the embassy—out of West Texas—Odessa, Texas, for that matter, the Gatlin boys are with us today. I thank the Red Poppies, thank you for your talent. And finally, I want to pay tribute to Sandy Randt, who has done a fabulous job as our Ambassador to China. Sandy, thank you and We're proud to be here with those citizens of ours who work at the embassies, and we say thanks to the Chinese nationals who make our embassy go, as well. // I'm honored to represent the United States at the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic Games here in Beijing. And I'm looking forward to cheering our athletes on. Mr. Ambassador, I'm not making any predictions about medal counts, but I can tell you the U.S. athletes are ready to come and compete, in the spirit of friendship. You know, during my last visit here I had the opportunity to break in the mountain biking course. I was so proud of my efforts, I told Laura I was thinking about entering the competition myself. She reminded me they don't give any medals for last place. // Tonight the Olympic torch will light the home of an ancient civilization with a grand history. Thousands of years ago, the Chinese people developed a common language and unified a great nation. China became the center for art and literature, commerce and philosophy. China advanced the frontiers of knowledge in medicine, astronomy, navigation, engineering, and many other fields. And the Chinese are even said to have invented the parachute—something for which the 41st President is very grateful. // We share a long history. The first American ship arrived in China just after the year we won our independence. World War Ⅱ, Americans and Chinese fought side by side to liberate this land from Imperial Japan. We all remember very clearly, Dr. K, when President Nixon came to Beijing to begin a new era of dialogue between our nations. You might remember that yourself. // Today the United States and China have built a strong relationship, rooted in common interests. China has opened its economy and begun to unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of its people. America will continue to support China on the path toward a free economy. We're also cooperating to fight pandemic diseases and respond to natural disasters. And through the Six-Party Talks, we're working together to ensure that the Korean Peninsula is free of nuclear weapons. // The relationship between our nations is constructive and cooperative and candid. We'll continue to be candid about our mutual global responsibilities. We must work together to protect the environment and help people in the developing world; continue to be candid about our belief that all people should have the freedom to say what they think and worship as they choose. We strongly believe societies which allow the free expression of ideas tend to be the most prosperous and the most peaceful. // Candor is the most effective—is most effective where nations have built a relationship of respect and trust. I've worked hard to build that respect and trust. I appreciate the Chinese leadership that have worked hard to build that respect and trust. And I thank all those here at the embassies who are doing the same thing. The people here who work made sacrifices to serve our country. Serving America is noble. And I hope you found it to be rewarding. I'm honored to be with you. I appreciate the honor of dedicating this new embassy. And I'm looking forward to going to the Games. God bless. // (Excerpt from US former President's address at the dedication of the new US embassy in Beijing, China)

问答题{{B}} Passage 1{{/B}} Ellen Wille, the Norwegian association's delegate at the 45th FIFA (Fédéation Internationale de Football Association) Congress in Mexico City in 1986, impressed upon FIFA that more should be done to further women' football and to unfold the latent potential in this sector of the game. Little did Wille know her spark would light the way for the women's football movement.// Presiding over the debates at the Congress, former FIFA President Joāo Havelange not only agreed entirely with the Norwegian female representative but also assured her that he personally would back the women's football movement, setting up an ad hoc committee as the first step. // Have lange and then-Secretary General Joseph Blatter were serious about supporting the women's sector. As a long-serving member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Havelange had seen for himself how women had been given the opportunity to compete as equals in a variety of Olympic disciplines to the sheer delight of the crowds. It was only a question of time before women would be beating the drum for their own world football tournament. If football genuinely intended to achieve universal appeal, it could not turn its back on the female half of the world's population. // Following the FIFA President's consent, the women's football scene in pioneering countries such as Norway, Sweden, Germany, Italy and the USA—where 40 percent of all the players enrolled in clubs are girls and women—was given a shot in the arm. The prospects of a world championship afforded women's football an arena that would highlight the attractiveness and style of this type of football. In any case, it was high time to snuff out any remaining prejudice. which, although unfounded, would still be difficult to eradicate. // Sure enough, in 1988 a tournament was staged in the province of Guangdong in southern China as a testing ground for a world championship. The high standards of play coupled with the scramble for tickets convinced the world governing body and its special committee that they were steering in the right direction. //The auspicious start motivated the World Cup's official sponsors to cultivate an interest in women's football. Barely three years later, twelve national teams from all over the world gathered in southern China where the women footballers enraptured the football world in Guangzhou and four other towns in Guangdong province. // Spurred on by spirited crowds, they demolished the wall of prejudice that had once thwarted their progress with displays of technique, imagination and dynamism at their first world championship in PRC. //The positive impression was perpetuated when the FIFA Referees' Committee appointed women to officiate as referees and to serve on the touchline for one of the matches. The high point came when, for the first time in the history of a FIFA competition, Claudia de Vasconcelos from Brazil competently refereed the playoff for third place as though it was second nature. // China 1991 was a solid foundation on which to build. Responding to a suggestion from women players and officials that there was still a great deal of groundwork to be done, FIFA invited interested parties to a seminar in Zurich in autumn 1992. // The outcome was a somewhat sobering experience in spite of encouraging signs of growth in the USA and some leading European footballing countries. Elsewhere, however, social conventions stood in the way of a breakthrough for women's football. Even today in countries in which women's football is widely played there still exists a disconcerting lack of resources to establish a professional league at the top of the scale. // The infrastructure for men's football took decades to develop before it acquired the predominance it enjoys today. Women's football ventured its first hesitant steps at the end of the last century but, in spite of widespread popularity over the past twenty years, it is still very much in its infancy. This is where the associations come in. It is now up to them to nurture women's football actively (it is, after all, the most popular women's team sport in the world) by incorporating it, for example, in their general television and marketing contracts. //

问答题A Speech by a Representative from College Students on the Public Open Day for College Students of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Celebration of the May Fourth Youth Day Honorable Minister Yang Jiechi, dear diplomats of the Motherland, dear students, My name is Wang Ruijun. I am an undergraduate majoring in the Indonesian language in the School of Foreign Languages (SFL), Peking University. This year marks the 90th anniversary of the "May Fourth Movement". Peking University is the birthplace of the "May Fourth Movement". I feel greatly honored and extremely excited to speak here on behalf of the students of Peking University and on behalf of all the students coming to attend the Open Day for college students in celebration of the May Fourth Youth Day arranged by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My heart is fueled with a sense of mission and a sense of pride. We are deeply impressed by the approachable manner of the diplomats and their fascinating introductions. Minister Yang Jiechi's graceful and insightful remarks made us extremely proud of the rising and prospering Motherland and the vigorous development of China's diplomacy. Here please allow me, on behalf of all the students participating in today's event, to express our heartfelt thanks to Minister Yang Jiechi and all the hospitable people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who show care for and interest in the growth of college students. We will keep in mind the ardent expectations of Minister Yang and take them as an encouragement to keep working hard so as to serve the Motherland. We will resolutely answer the call of Minister Yang and continue as always to keep a close eye on the diplomatic undertaking of the Motherland. This is not only because serving the Motherland is the mission of contemporary college students, but also because China's diplomacy has increasingly reached the "common people" and get increasingly relevant to the work and lives of ordinary people. Such terms as "mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation", "a big responsible nation", "soft power" and "consular protection" are very popular words among us. "Peaceful development", "a harmonious world", "diplomacy with neighboring countries", "big power relations", "multilateral diplomacy" and some other terms have also become the focus of discussions on the campuses. As China develops and the interactions with the outside world get increasingly frequent, we must show concern not only to personal affairs, but also to the affairs of the state and the world. Paying attention to and supporting China's diplomacy is not only the requirements of the times but also the duty of the Chinese youth. The young people should keep the Motherland in mind and look to the whole world. Today we listened to the introductions on China's diplomatic work made by the director-general of the Information Department and the deputy director-general of the Department of Personnel. We also had face-to-face interactions with the young diplomats from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the afternoon we will visit Diaoyutai, where many major diplomatic events took place. We are proud of the extraordinary achievements of the Motherland's diplomacy, but more importantly moved by the sincere patriotism of Chinese diplomats. In our hearts, the images of diplomats become richer and livelier. In addition to the impassioned, eloquent, cheerful, and humorous images, the diplomats of the Motherland have presented before us another image that sacrificed the time for family reunion, endured the tests of hardships, and worked hard despite of life-threatening danger in the front-line. With such understanding, the images of diplomats become loftier and more vivid. We hold the diplomats in great reverence. We are proud to see that tremendous changes have taken place in today's China compared with 90 years ago when China was still weak and poor or 60 years ago when the new China was just founded. The comprehensive national strength of China continued to increase and the international status of China continued to grow. Facing such unprecedented changes of the times, we, the youth, feel an urgent sense of responsibility. How to carry forward the spirit of the "May Fourth Movement"? How to serve the Motherland? These are the issues that we, the students often think about. The deeds of the outstanding diplomats tell us that to integrate love for the country into the mission of great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is to truly practice the spirit of the May Fourth Movement and the best return to the country. In turbulent periods, diplomats fought unremittingly to defend the independence of the Motherland. In the time of reform and development, diplomats fought for the opportunities for economic take-off of the Motherland. Diplomats have the courage to fight and also the will to make silent sacrifices. They have an indomitable spirit to fight and are also willing to stay unnoticed. They set up a good example for contemporary college students. We wish to learn from them, learn their noble spirit of patriotism for the Motherland at their posts, learn their good quality of hard work and sacrifice, and learn their work style of pursuing excellence and observing discipline. Fellow college students, let us join hands to dedicate our youth to the development of the Motherland and compose a more brilliant chapter for the future of the Motherland. Thank you.

问答题{{B}}Passage 2{{/B}} Steven Spielberg's first films were made at a time when directors were the most important people in Hollywood, and his more recent ones at a time when marketing controls the industry. He has remained the most powerful filmmaker in the world during both periods, which says something for his talent and his flexibility. Spielberg's most important contribution to modem movies is his acute insight to find and attract a large audience. He ingeniously revised old-style B-movie stories with A-level craftsmanship and enhanced them with the latest developments in special effects. Considering such movies as the "Indiana Jones" series and "Jurassic Park". The story lines were the mediocre stuff, but the filmmaking was cutting edge and delivered what films have always desired: they showed us something amazing that we hadn't seen before. The master image created in movies expresses something fundamental about the way the filmmakers see things. Spielberg once said that his master image was a simultaneous combination of brightness and mystery. This appears in many of his films. In Spielberg, the light source conceals mystery, whereas for many other directors it is darkness that conceals mystery. The difference is that for Spielberg, mystery offers promise instead of threat. One day he talked about a previous experience. "My dad took me out to see a meteor shower when I was a little kid," he said, "and it was scary for me because he woke me up in the middle of the night. My heart was beating; I didn't know what he wanted to do. He wouldn't tell me, and he put me in the car and we went off, and I saw ail these people lying on blankets, looking up at the sky. And my dad spread out a blanket. We lay down and looked at the sky, and I saw for the first time all these meteors." "What scared me was being awakened in the middle of the night and taken somewhere without being told where. But what didn't scare me, but was very soothing, was watching this meteor shower. And I think from that moment on, I never looked at the sky and thought it was a bad place." Spielberg has always maintained superb quality control and when his films work, they work on every level that a film can roach. When his films are shown, they will conquer the most sophisticated filmgoers in the world and invite them to tears and cheers.

问答题{{B}} Passage 1 {{/B}} Honorable Ministers， Your Excellencies， Ladies and Gentlemen, It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the first session of the Conference of the Parties to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. One hundred and twenty one countries are now contracting parties to the Convention. Of these, 110 are here today, with full powers of participation. You represent nearly three quarters of the world's population. You represent nations at all levels of income and all stages of development. //In this powerful gathering, we have three of the five top tobacco-leaf exporting countries, and four of the five top cigarette-exporting countries. This group of countries represents 69% of the world's cigarette consumption. It might seem astonishing that this group is also preparing to put into action the roadmap for countries to control tobacco. But this group has already changed history. // When the process began there was some skepticism over its success. The skeptics were wrong. You are driving change forward. To name some examples: India has introduced comprehensive tobacco advertising bans. Australia, Brazil, Canada, Singapore and Thailand have introduced highly visible graphic warnings on cigarette packets. The European Union is on its way to doing the same. In Ireland, Norway, and now in Spain, smoking has been banned in indoor public places. These, and other similar steps, will result in a major reduction in tobacco deaths. // New York State passed a smoking ban. It termed this act its "strongest public health policy ever". Ironically, now it's said that the only place you can smoke with impunity in New York City is the United Nations Building. Both Ann Veneman and I have said that this is wrong. // Smoking should be banned in all UN premises. Also, cigarette sales should be banned in all United Nations premises. After all, the people who are smoking in the UN building sometimes are the representatives of the same Member States who have signed up to the Framework Convention. But it can be hard to put agreements into practice. We will all face this. // Ladies and gentlemen, when we know that, in an Irish pub, a smoking ban can really work, then we know that anything is possible. Smoking is an advance contract. Those who smoke don't pay now, but will do so 30 to 40 years later, when their health fails. They pay with lung cancer, with obstructive airways disorders, with cardiovascular diseases. One in two smokers pays with their life. We have to help them stop smoking. We have to prevent them from starting. // This convention is something that we all committed to. Its provisions are bold. They are based on knowledge of what is effective. We will make it work. Thank you. // (Speech by LEE Jong-wook, former Director-general of WHO, at the Conference of the Parties in Geneva on February 6, 2006)

问答题{{B}}Passage 1{{/B}} The message I wish to convey to you is that I have complete confidence that Beijing will deliver an outstanding Olympic Games in 2008, that this will be a wonderful event for China and for the world, and that it is already serving to strengthen the very close relations between Australia and China. My own association with the Beijing Games began with Beijing's bid. For me, and for a number of Australians, the opportunity to support and assist the bid was far more than simply an interesting professional exercise. It was an opportunity to do something important. // We believed then, and we believe now, that hosting the biggest and best people-to-people event on the world's calendar will give further momentum to the process of modernization in China and the friendly integration of China with the world community. The purpose of the Games is of course not geopolitical; it is to conduct a celebration of sport and culture. But, as we know from our own experience with both the Melbourne Games in 1956, when Australians reveled in that first historic opportunity to welcome the world to our shores and Sydney in 2000, when we were able to show the world the dynamism of modem Australia, the Games can and do leave a wider and powerful legacy. // So it will be for China in 6 years time. The legacy will in part be of a tangible kind—world—class venues and other civic buildings, the Olympic Green, increased trade, investment and business relationships. Beijing's plans for these tangible legacies are impressive both in their ambition and in the determination of the organizers to bring them to fruition. But perhaps even more important in the long run will be the intangible legacy of the 2008 games. I refer here to the heightened consciousness of the importance of the environment, already a high national priority in China but one which is certain to be reinforced by the commitment to the Green Games. // An enduring memory for me from the days of the Beijing bid is the sheer delight of people in China, especially young people, at having the chance to play host to athletes, officials and visitors from around the world, to welcome them to China, to show them China and to build new friendships. International relations are not only about the conduct of political and economic affairs between governments and businesses. It must also be underpinned by the sort of deep international understanding that can only come from closer and closer relationships between peoples. // The Olympic Games are the most successful and popular embodiment of internationalism ever invented by human beings. During these glorious days, we will show how we can, at our best, transcend all differences of country, race and religion and truly embrace the common humanity that binds us all together. The participation of 1.3 billion people in that great goal can have profound and enduring benefits for our Asia-Pacific region and for the world. The Olympics are therefore coming to China at exactly the fight time in terms of the changes underway in China itself and in terms of China's engagement with the region and the world. //

问答题Passage 1下面你将听到的是一段有关中国工业未来的讲话。 China is in the midst of a developmental stage where advanced management knowledge and techniques and advanced industrial automation technology and solutions are fundamental and necessary elements for China's sustained growth and global competitiveness. There is no one good definition of what industrial automation is. Perhaps the best definition is a simple one: industrial automation is the use of electronics to control and monitor a process or machinery. While there are many steps that China must take to ensure the appropriate develop- merit of its industrial base and supporting infrastructure, the utilization of advanced industrial automation is a critical step. Increases in productivity and efficiency are not possible without a high level of industrial automation. If we were to look at the growth in productivity of U.S. industry from the mid- 1980s to the mid- 1990s, two pivotal factors stand out. The first is a revolution in management techniques and consequent restructuring of the American corporation. Management became results-focused, flatter and more distributed, with great participation by the work force. The second pivotal factor was the infusion of advanced industrial automation into manufacturing and other automated processes. Together these two elements led to significant in- creases in productivity and efficiency. These increases led the way to sustained growth in the U.S. economy, so that by the late 1980s and the early 1990s the U.S. economy was growing faster than that of Japan for the first time in several decades. China, which is now at its own critical industrial and management systems crossroads, can borrow from some of these experiences. China has an unparalleled opportunity to adopt advanced industrial automation as this technology moves into the new millennium and into the information era. The future of industrial automation will be a networked future with a great reliance on wireless connectivity. Utilization of effective and open networks such as DeviceNet, ControlNet and Ethernet/IP, with their ability to connect to the Internet, allows for continuous control and feedback from the factory floor to the management office and beyond. The factory floor and the management office can be linked continuously and in real time with suppliers, sales force and customers. Every part of this chain will be able to monitor, input to and adjust the manufacturing process and supporting activities. The future of industrial automation will also very much be linked to software that is an open platform and is multifunctional. The right software package provides tremendous flexibility and agility in the manufacturing process. Industrial software provides the operator interface and gateway from the factory floor to the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and even to the Internet to provide seamless flow of data and information so that the "Information Enabled Enterprise" can be managed in a more flexible, integrated, and efficient manner.

问答题{{B}}Passage 2 {{/B}} Seventeen years after the fall of the Berlin wall, a reunified Germany will throw open its doors to the world. Germany 2006 will be a place where people from all around the world will be welcomed by friends. The tournament is being held on the finest stage in the world, one whose symbolism far transcends the boundaries of sport. Hark back to Germany's triumph at the 1954 FIFA World Cup in Switzerland, which sealed the country's return to the international fold in the most beautiful manner possible.// In 2006, Germans will have the opportunity to rectify certain cliches and preconceived ideas. The world will have the chance to see what a fantastic country Germany truly is: the beauty and diversity of its landscapes, its rich cultural heritage and the intelligence and good humor of its people. As for the legendary German work ethic and organizational skills, I am pleased to say those perennial qualities are alive and well -- and we at FIFA are only too happy to take advantage of them.// For at all levels, the overall investment in any World Cup tournament is immense. The event is financially supported by the German state, but also by the "lender" and the Host Cities. I would like to take this opportunity to offer my heartfelt thanks to all those who are currently working with such passion and commitment to make the occasion a memorable one. Today's efforts will bear fruit tomorrow. German football, for example, will boast twelve spanking new or vastly improved stadiums in 2006. The whole German population too will benefit in terms of better transport and reception infrastructures.// Football clubs, schools and people all over the land have really got behind this great event, providing further proof, if any were needed, of the prominent role football plays in all our lives. In this respect I would like to congratulate the German Football Association for inviting people from all walks of life to take part in this great event. Like Mexico, Italy and France, Germany is now organizing its second FIFA World Cup. Back in 1974 when it first held the World Cup, only sixteen sides took part, including the now-defunct German Democratic Republic (GDR) and Zaire. The latter were the only representative from the African continent and conceded fourteen goals with no reply.// The 2006 tournament will be a vastly different affair. Thirty-two teams will have qualified, including five from Africa, all of whom now perform at a far higher level. These performances bear witness to FIFA's efforts in the last quarter of a century to help the nations of the football world to compete on an equal footing. I will have the immense pleasure of welcoming you amongst my friends in Germany. We look forward to seeing you in 2006 to celebrate this unity!//

Rowling女士，她最早是一个古典文学的学生。前年站在这里的是比尔·盖茨先生，他是一个超级富翁、一个慈善家和电脑高手。今年很遗憾，你们的演讲人是我，虽然我不是很有钱，但是至少我也算一个高手。 我很感激哈佛大学给我荣誉学位，这对我很重要，也许比你们会想到的还要重要。要知道，在学术上，我是我们家的不肖之子。我的哥哥在麻省理工学院得到医学博士，在哈佛大学得到哲学博士；我的弟弟在哈佛大学得到一个法律学位。我本人得到诺贝尔奖的时候，我想我的妈妈会高兴。但是，我错了。消息公布的那天早上，我给她打电话，她听了只说：“这是好消息，不过我想知道，你下次什么时候来看我?”如今在我们兄弟当中，我最终也拿到了哈佛学位，我想这一次，她会感到满意。 在哈佛大学毕业典礼上发表演讲，还有一个难处，那就是你们中有些人可能有意见，不喜欢我重复前人演讲中说过的话。我要求你们谅解我，因为两个理由。 首先，为了产生影响力，很重要的方法就是重复传递同样的信息。在科学中，第一个发现者是重要的，但是在得到公认前，最后一个将这个发现重复做出来的人也许更重要。 其次，一个借鉴他人的作者，正走在一条前人开辟的最佳道路上。哈佛大学毕业生、诗人爱默生曾经写下“古人把我最好的一些思想都偷走了。”画家毕加索宣称“优秀的艺术家借鉴，伟大的艺术家偷窃”。那么为什么毕业典礼的演说者，就不适用同样的标准呢? 我还要指出一点，向哈佛毕业生发表演说，对我来说是有讽刺意味的，因为如果当年我斗胆向哈佛大学递交入学申请，一定会被拒绝。我的妻子Jean当过斯坦福大学的招生主任，她向我保证，如果当年我申请斯坦福大学，她会拒绝我。我把这篇演讲的草稿给她过目，她强烈反对我使用“拒绝”这个词，她从来不拒绝任何申请者。在拒绝信中，她总是写：“我们无法提供你入学机会。”我分不清两者到底有何差别。在我看来，那些大热门学校的招生主任与其称为“准许你入学的主任”，还不如称为“拒绝你入学的主任”。很显然，我需要好好学学怎么来推销自己。

问答题So we have focused on strategic areas where we can make the biggest impact on agricultural change that stretch from the farm to the market to the table and keep people nourished and productive, health systems that help people spend their days working rather than sick or dying, opportunities for women and girls that allow them to contribute to economic and social progress.

问答题{{B}} 第二篇{{/B}} 随着中国实现总量控制的目标所面临的挑战日益严峻，以部门为基础分配减排责任的可能性越来越大。另外，根据最新修订的《空气清洁条例》，排放许可最终被赋予了法律地位，并在指定和执行减排义务中起指导性作用。//根据这两项最新的政策进展，美国环保协会已经和国家环保总局的各个部门达成协议，并计划通过新近确定的示范项目对这两项政策进行协调。//在国家环保总局最近公布的一个官方文件中，美国环保协会接受委托同国家环保总局结成了伙伴关系，在中国的四个省、三个大城市进一步拓展试点性的排污权贸易政策，以便积攒经验，为实现十五计划中确定的将二氧化硫控制在一定标准内的宏伟目标做准备。美国环保协会期望这些新的示范项目能够为跨界环境问题提供一种灵活而综合的解决办法。// 美国环保协会和美国国家及各州的立法人士都保持着长期的良好关系。我们希望这种经历和在环境政策发展及执行方面的经验能对建立具有中国特色的排污权交易有所帮助。基于此，我想在最后对政协自身的工作提出几条建议。// 首先，排污权交易要有正式的法律支持来解决在中国推广过程中所存在的任何不确定性。第二，建立全国性的基础设施以推动总量控制方面的省际合作，这一点至关重要。国家对总量控制配额的注册和跟踪机制就是基础设施建设的一个范例。//第三，有必要考虑建立有效期为五年以上的配额制度。对于多数公司来说，资本投资是一项大而长期的行为。为了从这些投资决策中获得最大收益，履行环境义务应该有一个合理的期限。最后，关键是要建立一套行之有效的遵守制度。如果对违反规定的行为没有实质性的惩罚措施，排污权贸易机制就毫无作用。// (选自美国环境保护协会中国代表张建宇先生在博鳌亚洲论坛2002年年会上的发言“中国的排污权交易”)

问答题{{B}} Passage 4{{/B}} That brings me to my final point, which is how do we help give the Climate Group the focus that it needs. I think one part of this is that you provide us with a lot of information, the detail, the examples, the living proof, of what good environmental policy can achieve. That is one important part. // The second thing is, that we use, as our country, our position in every way we can to push this agenda at a senior level. I've already said that for Britain's chairmanship of the G8 next year, there should be two issues for us: one is Africa, the other is climate change. Now I think it is important that we take a clear case on climate change to the G8 next year. I'm not saying it will always be easy, but it's important that the case is made, and I think that will give a focus to the efforts that are being made by this group and by others, not just in this country, but elsewhere in the world. // So I wanted to come and participate in the launch of The Climate Group for a very simple reason. When I first became Prime Minister, I obviously had a certain instinctive position about this issue and we as a political party coming into government had certain policies about it. But one of the first things I did, which is one of the advantages when you come into government, is that instead of having a small research group somewhere with people doing this as well as half a dozen other things, you can mobilise some of the best scientific minds and research that there is and I said, look, give me the facts. The interesting thing that came back to me was that the facts and the research indicated that this problem was, if anything, greater than I had realised // I don't think, as I said before, there is any bigger long-term question facing the global community. This group will be one part of a set of relationships and groups and a movement worldwide to make sure that we treat the issue with the seriousness that it deserves. One thing for sure is this, if you talk to any group of young people in our country or anywhere else today, they realise its importance. They want us to act upon it, they know sometimes it will involve difficult decisions, but the cost of not acting in this case is so overwhelmingly greater than any short-term cost of action, that we have to act and we have to act now. // So I'm delighted to be with you all this morning and I wish you the very best of luck with The Climate Group, I think it's a very, very important initiative. I am delighted to see so many people from different parts of the world that are here today. This is an issue that will carry on dominating our agenda but hopefully with your help, it will dominate the agenda of the global community in the years to come. // (Excerpts from UK Prime Minister's speech on climate change delivered on April 27, 2004)

问答题尊敬的来宾，女士们，先生们： 早上好! 我很高兴来参加《财富》全球论坛，也很荣幸在此与大家交流一下我的看法。 27年前，“开放”对于中国还是一个很陌生的词汇。在27年问，国民生产总值增加了1,100%，平均增速达9.4%。开放给中国人民带来了实惠，中国人从心里喜欢开放。[TONE]∥[TONE] 今天，中国的对外开放进入了一个新的时期。 首先，中国的开放水平上了一个新台阶。自加入WTO以后，经过3年多的过渡期，我们已经按照有关规则和承诺，调整了国内的经济体制，关税总水平已经降到了10%以下，所有非关税壁垒已被取消，国内各行业尤其是服务业的对外开放程度已大幅度提高。[TONE]∥[TONE] 第二，中国的市场规模越来越大，方兴未艾。谁也不怀疑，中国正在成为世界上成长最快的巨大市场，已经成为世界最大的电视机、电冰箱和手机消费国；住房、家用轿车和国内外的旅游已经成为新的消费热点。去年，中国国内市场消费了2万亿美元以上的生产资料和生活资料，中国东部近5亿人口的地区，人均GDP已经达到了2,000美元。在中国的银行里，居民储蓄已超过1.5万亿美元。[TONE]∥[TONE] 第三，中国不仅有较高素质的蓝领工人，还将有众多白领工人，过去，中国靠廉价的劳动力优势来竞争；今天，在继续保有这一优势的同时，高素质人才也成长起来了。今年，中国大学毕业生将超过300万人，中国人力资源的智力水平和外语普及程度都将不断提高。[TONE]∥[TONE] 第四，中国的基础设施日臻完善，目前，中国高速公路总里程已达到3万公里；铁路总营运里程7.2万公里，居世界第三；港口吞吐量41亿吨，居世界首位；电话用户总数已超过6.5亿户，居世界第一；互联网用户数超过9,400万户，居世界第二。中国已有条件在完善和通畅的条件下与世界合作。 现在，恐怕全世界绝大多数人都不怀疑中国的稳定和秩序了。[TONE]∥[TONE]

问答题{{B}}Passage 1 {{/B}} In order for people to make the most of the Information Society, they must have enhanced levels of ICT literacy and ICT skills. To achieve this, relevant education and training should be promoted at every level, from primary to adult, to open up opportunities for as many people as possible, and especially for the disadvantaged. The capacity of developing and least developed countries to apply ICTs effectively must be enhanced through regional and international cooperation. // ICTs can contribute to enhancing the quality of teaching and learning, and the sharing of knowledge and information. Teachers act as a gateway to the Information Society, and their skills development and curriculum resources need increased support. // It is also important to improve both basic and advanced education in science and technology. This will help to create a critical mass of highly qualified and skilled ICT professionals and experts that will continue to serve as a foundation for the region's ICT development. It is recognized that education in network infrastructure development and operation is of particular importance, and is critical to the availability of efficient, reliable, competitive and secure ICT network services. // The transition to the Information Society requires the creation of appropriate and transparent legal, regulatory and policy frameworks at the global, regional and national levels. These frameworks should give due regard to the rights and obligations of all stakeholders in such areas as freedom of expression, privacy, security, management of Internet addresses and domain names, and consumer protection, while also maintaining economic incentives and ensuring trust and confidence for business activities. In order to secure prompt settlement of disputes, Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) should be considered along with normal judicial proceedings. // While intellectual property rights play a vital role in fostering innovation in software, ecommerce and associated trade and investment, there is a need to promote initiatives to ensure fair balance between IPRs and the interests of the users of information, while also taking into consideration the global consensus achieved on IPR issues in multilateral organizations. // Copyright holders and distributors of content should be cognizant of the need to ensure that content is accessible for all, including persons with disabilities. In this connection, access requirements should be included in legal, regulatory and policy frameworks, where appropriate. // Among the challenges to the region are the general lack of awareness of information security issues, the rapidly evolving complexity, capacity and reach of information technology, the anonymity offered by these technologies, and the transnational nature of communication frameworks. // Recognizing the principle of fair, equitable and appropriate access to ICTs for all countries, special attention should be paid to the fact that ICTs can potentially be used for purposes that are inconsistent with the objectives of maintaining international stability and security, and may adversely affect the integrity of the infrastructure within States, to the detriment of their security in both civil and military fields. // A multi-pronged approach is needed to address these challenges, and cybercrime, on all fronts, with emphasis on preventive approaches, national guidelines and regional and international cooperation. At the same time, action to address cybercrime and to ensure a safe and secure Information Society must respect the sovereignty of nations and maintain respect for the constitutional and other rights of all persons, including freedom of expression. // All stakeholders concerned with ICT issues should take the necessary steps to enhance security, user confidence and other aspects of information and system/network integrity in order to avoid the risk of wholesale disruption and destruction of the network systems on which they are increasingly dependent. // Effective information security could be guaranteed not only by technology, but also by education and training, policy and law, and international cooperation. In the long term, development of a "global culture of cyber-security", based on a common understanding of regulations and appropriate mechanisms for information and technology exchange and international cooperation. should be promoted. // (Excerpt from "The Tokyo Declaration—the Asia-Pacific perspective to the WSIS")

问答题Passage 1 I am delighted to be with you. I first visited China 22 years ago, but this is my first visit to your university, in a city whose students have helped shape the development of modem China. So I am privileged to have the opportunity to share ideas about U.S.-China relations in the modem era of globalization with people who will, I expect, help write Chinese history -- through deeds and words -- in the 21st century.// It was the students of Beijing who in May 1919 protested the Treaty of Versailles' failure to expel Japanese occupiers from China. In that action, the source of the May 4 Movement, Beijing's students not only made a bold statement about China's freedom from foreign occupation and right to self-determination. They also ushered in the era of modern China, taking a decisive step toward China's emergence from imperial rule and stagnation. I think it is useful to begin our exchanges about the future from the vantage point of what happened almost a century ago in this historic city.// Chinese are rightly proud of the history of the world's oldest continuous civilization, and look to it for lessons. America is a young nation by comparison, but suggestion that we live exclusively in the present, unshaped by history, is a misleading caricature. So I would like to share with you my perceptions about what this last century has meant to our two countries, how we have perceived each other, and where we are going. Many people talk about this new millennium as an unprecedented age of globalization. Extraordinary it is, but unprecedented it is not. // In 1902, the automobile was just coming into use in the United States. Man's first airplane flight occurred 99 years ago, on a beach in North Carolina. The wireless radio followed in a few years, transforming societies -- much like the Internet is doing today. The telephone enabled people to converse across mountains, rivers, and indeed around the world. The United States was transformed by this earlier era of globalization in the most fundamental way -- the face of its population. In each year of the first decade of the last century, new immigrants to America numbered about one percent of the existing population.// A country that had been largely composed of people of English, German, Irish, and Africa descent found itself the chosen destination of millions of immigrants from different parts of the planet -- Poles, Russians, Italians, Chinese, Japanese, and Jews, among others. Their contributions to American economic, social, scientific, intellectual, and political life were enormous. We learned that openness -- to people, goods, capital, and of course ideas -- is our greatest strength as a country and society. Although change and adaptation and intrusions from outside can be frightening, and pose difficulties of adjustment, openness spurs dynamism, flexibility, competition, liberty, and the individual pursuits of happiness.//
