问答题向一位著名的女作家祝贺她八十岁寿辰,这样的机会是不多的,所以我去年十月五日到冰心家里去的时候,心情非常激动。我解释说希望她给我讲一下她是怎样成为诗人的。“我已有多年没有写诗了,”她微笑说,“可是我还是爱读好诗。”
冰心很幸运地有鼓励她学习和写作的父母。一九一九年她在北京一所女子学院念书时,一个事件改变了她生命的整个道路。那就是五四运动,一个由北京学生发动的爱国民主运动。群众游行示威的场面给她以深刻的印象。她投身于斗争中,并被学生会任命负责宣传工作。她写了诗歌、文章和故事,以抨击帝国主义和各种形式的封建主义。
她在1923年到美国去学文学,在旅途中和在美国居留中写下了她的感受。这些都收在一个集子里出版,就是《寄小读者》。这本书使她声誉突起。这不仅是因为她是一位女作家,而是因为书中的高尚的情操。有不少较年轻的作家说,是冰心的作品使他们走上了其后所走的道路。
问答题近年来,中国政府倡导国内旅游,推行“假日经济”政策,给公民每年3次为期一周的长假,让他们将更多储蓄用于旅游、购物和外出就餐。2004年,五一节的总旅游消费达390亿元人民币。
目前旅游业收入占国内生产总值的2.3%。预计到2013年,旅游收入将每年增长10%,并创造4,000万个就业机会。
旅游的间接效益更大,估计创造了1,840亿美元的经济活动,以及5,400万个就业岗位。这些经济活动包括政府花在会议上的旅游开支,以及重要的旅游项目投资。
中国在公路、火车站和机场方面投资巨大。新航线和公交公司不断涌现,竞争降低了旅游成本。京沪间单程机票售价为850-900元人民币,有时还会更低。一些航线开展网上售票服务,方便人们购票。更多私车和汽车租赁中介的出现让数百万人不仅能跟团旅游,还能自己开车出游。

问答题作为一个国际商业中心,上海拥有繁忙的港口,亚洲最重要的证券交易所之一以及世界600强都不能忽视的巨大市场。
上海己建成全国顶级的博物馆和歌剧院,还将举办2010年世界博览会,向人们展示其商业和文化中心的地位。在世博会153年的历史中,拥有1700万人口的上海将成为发展中国家的首个东道主。
预计在2010年5月至10月的世博会期间,参观人数将达到创纪录的7000万人次。世博会的主题为:城市,让生活更美好。上海希望通过举办世博会盈利的同时,能吸引资金流向其服务业。从长远看,世博会将有利于城市改造并全面提升上海的国际形象。
上海计划为世博会投资30亿美元。为确保世博会举办期间交通顺畅,还将投入更多资金用于改造道路和地铁。
根据世博会规划,所有会展建筑将建在黄浦江两岸,包括众多高科技展厅和一个会议中心。上海市政府决心通过举办世博会,不断改善城市生活。世博会结束后,大部分场地将被改造成生活、办公和休闲设施。

问答题劳动力的定义是可以工作和赚取收入的总人数。这定义包括所被雇用的每个人或者说所需要支付的雇用,所以它包括雇用者和自我雇用者。
尽管劳动力的总数在很大的程度上取决于人口总数,但它同样受其他因素的影响。总人数的年龄分布状态对可利用的劳动力有很大的影响。如果人口中有很大一部分年龄很小或者很大,那么它的可利用劳动力的总数就要比年龄分布平均的可利用劳动力的总数低。如果人数自然增长,也就是说出生数远大于死亡人数,那么随着总人数增加,劳动力的总数就会减少。
有时人口可描述为人口老化,意思就是当出生率下降或增长得很慢的时候,有人退休而又无足够的年轻人代替那些即将离开的人,这就形成了人口老龄化。所以当人口增长快或出生率下降的时候,劳动力的人口百分比就会下降。
人口年龄的分布会对经济产生影响。如果人口老化,退休人员增加而无新成员的加入时,就会产生为退休人群提供合理化社会服务的经济问题。如果老人需要在特殊的老人之家或旅馆得到关怀和照顾,必须有足够的资金来保障这种服务。如果相比较于总人数,劳动力的总数太小,政府的税收就会相应地减少。政府就会减少资金的投入,或者工作人员的税收将会增加。
问答题We are learning new computer knowledge everyday. The technology, which has already transformed newspapering, doesn"t sit still. We journalists have ceased all that grieving about how we were going to hang on to our typewriters and how this new staff was simply barbaric, an affront to the very concept of the written word.
6
That"s gone, as everything we know about human history should have told us that in all the current worries over problems created by the arrival of the computer age, one thing that should be exempted from worry is the capacity of human beings to adapt to it.
Our grandparents, for instance, easily traversed lifetimes that saw at least as much astonishing change as we have—from horse—drawn carriages to jet air travel, from pre-telephone communication by written letter to communication by car phone, or fax.
7
Just as people around the world have in recent times shown themselves remarkably able to accommodate this kind of rapid change, so it didn"t ever seem to trouble them.
They absorbed the developing bounty without a peep and quickly came to depend on it, even though it collapsed all their accustomed notions of time and distance.
8
The human machine, in this infinite ability to adjust to radically changed environments, seems considerably more wondrous than the invented machine.
But it is not the individual human ability to adapt that is the problem in the new age. Rather, the problem is the ability of our institutions and economics and societies to do so.
9
No matter how upbeat one is about all the blessings that flow to this country from the new technology in terms of teaching, medicine, marketing, law enforcement and the rest, it is necessary to acknowledge that the blessing is mixed.
You can accept that in the long run jobs will be created, not lost, as a result of the innovation. But in the short run there is bound to be economic displacement and loss.
10
You can also believe that our legal systems can in time withstand the challenge all this presents and still acknowledge that at least for the moment iudicial problems have been created by it in the realms of privacy, competition, property fights and many others.
The question is not whether we adjust to the electronic miracles all around us, but whether, as a society, we do it enthusiastically and well.

问答题The proportion of children in America who are overweight has tripled over the past 20 years and now exceeds 17%, according to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The health problems that this causes include hypertension and type-2 diabetes, formerly known only among the nation"s overweight adult population. A group sponsored by the National Institute on Ageing has warned that this may be the first generation ever to have a shorter lifespan than their parents.
All the while, the proportion of children who take part in daily exercise at high school has dropped from 42% in 1991 to only 28% in 2004, according to the CDC. Snacking has greatly increased; the Government Accountability Office found in 2003 that 99% of America"s high schools now sell snacks and other food as well as providing lunches.
In an attempt to get the problem tackled at local level, Congress in 2004 passed an act directing school districts that get money from the national school-lunch programme to create "wellness" policies by the start of the 2006-07 school year. The districts were told to set standards for nutrition, physical activity and education about good food, then make sure that schools actually implement them.
One year after the deadline, the results are haphazard. School districts" plans range from a few paragraphs long to more than 25 pages. Some states, like Texas and Arkansas, have pre-emptively set standards for school districts under their jurisdiction, forcing schools to ban fizzy drinks and junk food while increasing the amount of exercise the pupils take. Others offer guidelines rather than man-dates, with no repercussions for schools that don"t comply. And in some areas, schools are being eased into change very slowly. Oregon"s legislature passed a bill in June that gives its schools ten years to meet its new physical-education requirements.
Last October the School Nutrition Association (SNA), a pressure group, analysed health policies from the 100 largest school districts in the country, which account for almost a quarter of the nation"s primary-and-secondary-school students. Many districts had indeed created guidelines for nutrition education, physical activity and school food, as required, but the rules tended to be fairly broad. Some policies merely defaulted to the state recommendations and some to the federal government"s minimal requirements. The physical-activity guidelines were also varied; only 62% of schools made physical education obligatory.
Action for Healthy Kids, another schools-oriented NGO, also looked at a smattering of policies last year. Of the 112 districts it analysed, only 30% specified a time requirement for physical-education classes and 42% offered only general guidelines for the sort of food and drink allowed to be sold in the schools. Cafeterias where nachos, French fries and cookies are tucked alongside salads, juice and fresh fruit do not encourage children to eat well.
The SNA has now done a follow-up. It found that less than half of the schools were implementing their nutrition-education guidelines and enforcing vending-machine rules. The sporty bits fared better, with 64% of the schools meeting their physical-education requirements.
Bringing the issue to a local level is meant to make up for the dearth of guidelines from the federal government. Other than banning chewing-gum and sweets from the cafeteria at lunchtime, there are no national guidelines for food sold outside the school lunch programme, nor are there any requirements for physical education. So far, the 2004 act does not seem to be doing enough to change that.
