单选题Ethics Office Backs Interior Official 民族部支持内政部的官员 The Office of Government Ethics said the Interior Department's No. 2 official, Steven Griles, did not appear to violate ethics rules by arranging meetings between Interior officials and his former lobbying clients and partners. The office, after reviewing an 18-month investigation by the Interior Department's inspector general, said it found no ethics violations by Griles in the department's awarding of more than $1.6 million i contracts in 2001 and 2002 to Advanced Power Technologies Inc., a former client. Interior Department Inspector General Earl Devaney said Griles' behavior is the latest case of an Interior official falling to consider perceived impropriety in his actions. He also called the department's underfunded ethics office "a train wreck waiting to happen. " Interior Secretary Gale Norton and Republicans in Congress said the report clears Griles of any wrongdoing. Griles is gratified by the finding that he had "adhered to ethics laws and rules. " "I am glad this matter is behind me," he saiD． Sen. Joe Lieberman, D-Conn., called Devaney's report a case of the "foxes guarding the foxes," saying the questionable conduct and special treatment given to Griles' former clients "cannot help but leave a sour taste in the mouth of anyone who believes in the fairness of government. " Environmentalists had alleged that Griles helped former clients land government contracts, intervened in an environmental study of coalbed methane development in Wyoming, and held a dinner for senior department officials at the home of his former lobbying partner. Two matters—the coalbed methane analysis and the Interior Department dinner—were referred to Norton by the Office of Government Ethics for possible action. Norton said they had been adequately addresseD． "This closes the issue," Norton said in a statement. Kristen Sykes of Friends of the Earth disagreed and said Griles should be fireD． "It uncovers regular and consistent breaches of Griles' ethics agreements and , more importantly, blatant violations of the public's trust," she saiD．"If this White House is serious about ethics and accountability, Mr. Griles should be dismissed immediately. " Devaney did not draw conclusions in his report, but said in a letter to the department that regardless of whether Griles broke the law, the appearance of wrongdoing erodes public trust. "This is the only one in a series of cases in which we have observed an institutional failure to consider the appearance of a particular course of conduct," he wrote. "It is my hope, however, that this may be the case that changes the ethical culture in the department. " Last month, Devaney cleared the department's former top lawyer, Bill Myers, of allegations that his official actions benefited former lobbying clients. An investigation is under way into whether Bureau of Land Management Director Kathleen Clarke violated ethics rules by participating in meetings regarding a land exchange in Utah, where she was the state's director of natural resources. Griles continues to receive $284,000 a year as part of a four-year severance package from his former lobbying firm. In April 2002, the Environmental Protection Agency was about to object to an environmental study of coalbed methane drilling in Wyoming when Griles interveneD．In a phone call and letter, he urged EPA to resolve its differences to keep the project on track. At least six of Griles's former clients had interest in the project. Devaney also found that Interior Department officials sought out projects to award to one of Griles' former clients, Advanced Power Technologies, Inc., ather than letting APTI compete for existing projects. After joining the Interior Department, Griles held a dinner party for senior department officials at the home of his former lobbying partner, Marc Himmelstein.Assistant Secretary Rebecca Watson, told Devaney she believed it was improper and could give the appearance of favoritism. Griles said it was a social event that he would have hosted at his home if he had space. Devaney said ethics issues can arise with any appointee, but neglect and a lack of funding have left the Interior Department's enthics office unable to shepherd officials through the ethics minefielD．

单选题Texans have bursting pride and love attention. They also have a thick streak of shortsighted greed and, even by American standards, a busted disposition to violence. When they hear this sort of criticism they usually ascribe it to the ignorance and jealousy of stuffy Yankees who have not spent enough time in the state to understand it. For such avowedly robust people they are surprisingly sensitive. They hated Edna Ferber's novel Giant, which scourged Texan vulgarity, racism and the mores of millionaires, but they bought it in great quantities and packed cinemas to see the film. They would rather be talked about than not, and if you do not talk about them they do it for you. In claiming special qualifies for themselves, Texans have had to become reconciled to the fact that a large number of them are not native. In the last century "Gone to Texas" was a commonplace graffito daubed on barns in other states, and in recent years "Gone to Texas" has, figuratively, been written on the front doors of millions of Americans and also Mexicans. In the early 1980s newcomers accounted for nearly two-thirds of the state's population increase. But Texans do not believe they are being diluted. They maintain that Texanhood, or Texianism, is a matter of attitude and that Texanic qualities exist in abundance in many Americans, regardless of their birthplace: it is when these people are planted in Texas, and nourished by its atmosphere, that they flower like true Texans. A man may not be born in Texas, which is unfortunate; but he can be born to be Texan. Many Alaskans are urban, young and raising families, here for a while, and trying to make money before moving to somewhere warmer. But many are staying. While most remain in Anchorage and other centers, some set out to build a cabin in the wilderness and live by hunting, trapping and fishing, learning how to skin a muskrat and moose, how to survive terrible weather, how to be truly in tune with the land, taking pleasure in great silence and unpeopled immensity. To settle the frontier the state has a homesteading program, based on the federal Homestead Act of 1864, which was a key event in the opening up of the American west. Hundreds of Alaskans are awarded parcels of wilderness land in an annual lottery and undertake to invest sweat equity, to build a home within three years and clear and cultivate the land within five. Alaskans love reading about Alaska, and two of the most popular books are a manual on log cabin building and a collection of tales about grizzly bears, of which Alaska is a stronghold. Log cabin life is for the stout-hearted few with the springs of adventure strong in them, and these wilderness Alaskans are remarkable. Some are refugees of one kind or another. Several hundred are Vietnam veterans, tortured by their experiences of war and unable to fit into normal urban life, seeking solace in the wilds.
