US-DPRK( Democratic People’s Republic of Korea) relations have become a factor that affects the stability in Asia, with the talks on DPRK’s nuclear programme issue travelling along a bumpy road. Revolving around the nuclear issue, disputes between the United States and the Republic of Korea crop up frequently, estranging the two allies. Sins-US relations are getting increasingly complex and different schools of thought inside the United States clash with each other over how to deal with a fast “rising China”. The China policy, to a certain extent, has evolved into a bottleneck for the United States’Asia policy. The Taiwan question becomes ever pressing in the post-Cold-War period, but the United States has so far failed to come up with an effective way to address the situation. In Southeast Asia and South Asia, the US anti-terror campaigns have achieved little, and instead served to distance the United States from the Muslim masses in the region. Thousands upon thousands of US troops are stuck in the quagmire of Iraq. There seems no light at the end of the tunnel on theissue of Iran’s nuclear undertakings. In the face of all this, US Asia experts have voiced their dissatisfaction over US Asia policy. They generally come to the conclusion that the US Asia policy lags behind the developments and that the definition of the US role in Asia is disorientated. The conclusion is drawn against the background of Asia’s fast changing political, economic and security situations. Strong bias has always blurred the US analysis of international politics, often leading to misjudgement and miscalculation. Confrontation, for example, dominated Sino-US relations for 22 years after 1949, when the People’s Republic of China was founded. This is because US policy-makers understood the event as an outcome of the Soviet Union’s exporting of revolution, thinking China would go along steadily with the “Big Brother” concept for decades to come. The United States paid dearly for the confrontation. The US involvement in Viet Nam offers another example. Ho Chih Minh’s drive for national unification was misread as the expansion of communism in Southeast Asia. Large numbers of American troops were committed to “contain”the “expansion.”Again, the United States paid dearly. The United States, it seems to me, is now misreading China’s fast development. China’s high-speed economic growth is bringing wealth and prosperity to one-fifth of the world’s population. But some American political elite think the rise of China poses a threat and challenge to the US supremacy. They are haunted by how to come up with the best way to deal with China’s rise, and hence the hesitation between engagement and containment. This, in turn, helps explain the volatility of US-China relations. Apart from its misjudgement of the outside world, the wrong definition of its role in Asia is also responsible for policy errors. Desire for hegemony has dominated US Asia policy since World War II. Seeking supremacy is at the core of policy-making considerations. During the Cold War period, Washington claimed “containment of communism,”but they were actually in pursuit of US hegemony. Driven by these hegemonic impulses, the United States got involved first in the Korean War and then the Viet Nam War, taking upon itself commitments that far outstripped its strength. After the failure of Viet Nam, the United States had to reshape its Asia policy, seeking strategic balance instead of supremacy. The change of role helped free it from a predicament. When the Cold War ended in the early 1990s, the United States faced the test again in terms of defining its role in Asia. The Clinton administration wanted to use US values, US models of development and security concepts, the so-called “soft power”, to shape regional politics, economics and security. It can be interpreted as applying new tools to play a leading role in Asia. After President George W. Bush assumed power, the United States’role was defined as a unilateral leader, which was intended to guard against any rising powers. The advent of the September 11 terrorist attacks changed the priorities of the US strategic agenda, but not the Bush administration’s yearning for US supremacy. All this helps bring about the situation that the United States’ Asia policy is increasingly distanced from the fast changing reality in Asia. The United States’ constructive role in Asian affairs would be in the interest of Asian countries as well as in its own. Correct US assessment of the reality in Asia is thus called for. First, it should be understood that Asian countries’co-operation in political and security affairs among themselves is being strengthened. They axe increasingly reluctant to be told what to do by outsiders. This kind of co-operation will help alter the political and economic landscapes of Asia and will also have a great impact on US-Asian relations. The economic co-operation among the 10+3(10 countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations plus China, Japan and the Republic of Korea) framework and the planned East Asia Summit are but just two examples in Asian countries’ intention of forming, a single community. Second, China’s development will not follow the old path of the newly emerging power replacing the old one, and will, therefore, not bring about the situation in which a hysteric arms race is set in motion because the parties involved fear to be left in a weaker position. Using the old-fashioned containment mentality to handle China-and Asia-related affairs is bound to end in tears. Third, Asian countries are becoming increasingly interdependent, whether in terms of economic co-operation or anti-terror campaigns. On the other hand, the United States is getting more and more dependent on other countries in many ways. This requires it to adapt to the fast changing situation in Asia. Fourth, the United States is powerful but not omnipotent. It won a war in Iraq but did not win peace. The United States cannot settle all the questions in Asia, let alone if it tries to do it all in its own way.2．The dispute on DPRK’s nuclear programme issue gives a negative influence on US-DPRK relations.A．YB．NC．NG正确答案：A解析：文章第二段指出围绕朝鲜核问题的谈判疏远了两国的关系，显然本题的论断说得也是这个意思。

洛基英语，中国在线英语教育领导品牌答案及详解Part ⅠWritingOn Chinese Workers'Paid HolidaysIn 2007, the Chinese government released a draft that all employees of government organs, civil organizations, enterprises, and public-service institutions are entitled to take paid vacation after serving the same employer for one year. Some have sufficient faith that the paid holidays will improve the current tourism pattern. The new holiday scheme will give people more choices to make their holiday plans and thus it will greatly alleviate the pressure of transportation departments, security bodies, shopping malls,ect. during the current holiday boom.Other people wonder if the new system will be available. It is likely to be a dream to have a paid holiday. Because the problem is that many people don't dare to take long vacations. Competition is fierce. Nobody can afford a long holiday and leave the boss with an impression of not working as hard as others.For me, I think it is necessary for, in future, the state to issue a regulation concerning Chinese workers-paid holidays. Stregthen the employers' sense of the paid holidays. If they did so voluntarily, it will attract and retain employees. With these measures, it is expected that more employees in China are entitled to receive holiday pay for time off.Part ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. Y 细节题根据信号词"BMI, 85%"寻读到第二段第一句。

The Silk Road concept refers to both the terrestrial and the maritime routes connecting Asia with Africa, the Middle East and southern Europe. The Silk Road played a significant role in the civilization development of China. It was through the Silk Road that Chinese silk, tea and porcelain spread all over the world. On 22 June, 2014, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) named the Silk Road a World Heritage Site at the 38th Conference on World Heritage.【听力原文】Section AN e w s R e p o r t O n eThe number of suspected cases of cholera resulting from an epidemic in war-torn Yemen has reached 500,000, the World Health Organization (WHO) says.At least 1,975 people have died since the waterborne disease began to spread rapidly at the end of April. The WHO said the overall caseload had declined since July, but that 5,000 people a day were still being infected. The disease spread due to deteriorating hygiene and sanitation conditions and disruptions to the water supply.More than 14 million people are cut off from regular access to clean water and sanitation in Yemen, and waste collection has ceased in major cities.Cholera is an acute diarrhoeal infection caused by ingestion of food or water contaminated with the bacterium Vibrio cholera. Most of those infected will have no or mild symptoms but, in severe cases, the disease can kill within hours if left untreated. More than a quarter of those who have died and 41% of those who have been infected have been children, according to the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs.heard.Q1.

In recent years, butterflies that were once only found in southern Britain have crossed the border in Scotland, including the comma and the small and Essex skippers. Within Scotland, species such as the ringlet, orange tip and peacock have moved rapidly north and into the Highlands.heard.Q3. When was white-letter hairstreak seen in Scotland for the first time?Q4.

The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) began investigating Uber following allegations about the God View program in the media in 2014. After the investigation started, Uber developed an automated system for monitoring employee access to customer and driver personal data.However, the FTC said the company had stopped using it eight months after it had been put in place. “Uber failed consumers in twokey ways: first by misrepresenting the extent to which it monitored its employees’ access to personal information about users and drivers, and second by misrepresenting that it took reasonable steps to secure that data,” said FTC acting chairman Maureen Ohlhausen, who presided over the settlement.Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.Q5.

Six 4-H girls worked to clean the 72 foot curbside that was covered with weeds, rocks and trash.Each member volunteered to clean up and to dig in plot, five flats of flowers. They also took turns in watering, weeding and maintaining the plot.Participation in this project helped the girls develop a new attitude towards their parents of their own homes; they’ve learned how to work with tools, and improve their work habits. One mother said that before her daughter was involved in this project, she would not even pull the weed. The experience on Main Street stimulated self-improvement, and encouraged members to take pride in their home grounds and the total community.City officials cooperated with the 4-H members in planting trees, building cooking facilities, picnic tables, swings and public restrooms. The 4-H girls planted trees and took care of them during the early stages of growth. The total park project needed more plantings in the following years. Members of the 4-H club agreed to follow the project through to completion, because they receive satisfaction from the results of constructive work.The project is a growing one and is spread from the park to the school and the shopping center. Trees and flowers have all been planted in the shopping center, making the atmosphere pleasant.Questions 16 to 19 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q16. What do we learn about Main Street in Farmington?Q17. What do the 4-H club members do about the curbside?Q18. What have the 4-H girls learned from the project?Q19. Why do the 4-H girls agree to follow the park project through to completion?P a s s a g e T w oAccording to a survey on reading conducted in 2001 by the U.S. National Education Association (NEA), young Americans say reading is important, more important than computers and science.Over 50% of the 12 to 18 years old interviewed say they enjoy reading a lot. 79% find it stimulating and interesting. And 87% think it is relaxing. About 68% of those surveyed disagreed with the opinion that reading is boring or old-fashioned.Over half teenagers interviewed said they read more than ten books a year. The results also show that middle school students read more books than high schoolers. Over 66% of teens like to read fiction, such as novels and stories. Over 26% are interested in non-fiction, such as history books. 64% of students listed reading stories about people my own age. That’s a favorite topic. Mysteries and detective stories came second on the list at 53%. Just under 50% said they were interested in reading about their own culture in tradition.Of the teenagers who participated in the survey, 49% said thatlibraries are where they get most of their books. However, many complain that their school libraries do not have enough up-to-date interesting books and magazines.Even though many teenagers in the US enjoy reading, they still have other interests. When asked which activity would be the most difficult to give up for a week, 48% said listening to music. TV would be difficult to give up for 25% of those surveyed.Questions 20 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q20. What does the survey on teenager reading show?Q21. What books are most popular among teenagers according to the survey?Q22. What activity do teenagers find the most difficult to give up for a week?P a s s a g e T h r e eThank you for coming, everyone. Today’s presentation will show how we see the development of the motor car in the short to medium term, and that is why we have invited all of you here today.Le t’s start with power. It’s clear that petrol-driven engines have no future. Already there are many alternative fuel vehicles on the market, powered by anything from solar power to natural gas. Some independent thinkers have even produced cars that run on vegetableoil. But as we all know, of all these alternative fuel vehicles, the most practical are electric vehicles. Sure, in the past electric vehicles have their problems, namely, a limited driving range, and very few recharging points, which limited their use. Now, however, recent developments in electric vehicle technology mean they can match conventional petrol engines in terms of performance and safety. Let’s not forget that electric vehicles are cleaner. Plus, importantly, the power source is rechargeable, so this does not involve using any valuable resources.Moving on to communications, very soon, cars will be linked to GPS satellites, so they’ll do all the driving for you. What controls remain for the users will be audio-based, so, for example, you’ll just have to say “a bit warmer”, and the air conditioning will adjust automatically. You’ll also be able to receive email, music and movies, all via an internet link. So just type in the destination you want, sit back, sleep, and watch your movie, whatever.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q23. What is the presentation mainly about?Q24. What used to restrict the use of electric vehicles?Q25. What does the speaker say about electric vehicles of today?。

大学英语四级试卷模拟五试卷答案对照版(二)
大学英语四级试卷模拟五试卷答案对照版（二）After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report; The damage and death toll (死亡人数) could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims:Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city's buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren't resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图的) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.31. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that _______?A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction ofbuildings and highways32. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to _______.A) counterbalance an earthquake's action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations33. The smart buildings discussed in the passage _______.A) would cause serious financial problemsB) would be worthwhile though costlyC) would increase the complexity of architectural designD) can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes34. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on _______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes35. The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to _______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computers.C) outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materials.D) report new developments in constructing quake resistant building.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Even plants can run a fever, especially when they're under attack by insects or disease. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away straight up.A decade ago, adapting the infrared (红外线) scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones areunder stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide (杀虫剂) spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don't have pest (害虫) problems.Even better, Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running "fevers". Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. "This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States," says George Oerther of Texas A M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture. He thinks remote infrared cropscanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.36. Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are _______.A) sprayed with pesticidesB) facing an infrared scannerC) in poor physical conditionD) exposed to excessive sun rays37. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to _______.A) estimate the damage to the cropsB) measure the size of the affected areaC) draw a color-coded mapD) locate the problem area38. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by _______.A) resorting to spot-sprayingB) consulting infrared scanning expertsC) transforming poisoned rainD) detecting crop problems at an early stage39. The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties -- _______.A) the lack of official supportB) its high costC) the lack of financial backingD) its failure to help increase production40. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of _______.A) the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce.B) growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC) the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD) full support from agricultural expertsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

大学英语四级试卷模拟五试卷答案对照版(二)
大学英语四级试卷模拟五试卷答案对照版（二）Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report; The damageand death toll (死亡人数) could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in1988 claimed 25,000 victims:Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angelesduring the last 20 years have strengthened the city's buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren't resting ontheir successes. Pinned to their drawing boards areblueprints (蓝图的) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security tocities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake resistant meant firmyet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a buildingoff its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force thebuilding to shift in the opposite direction.The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be lesslikely to be damaged during earthquakes.31. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that _______?A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction ofbuildings and highways32. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to _______.A) counterbalance an earthquake's action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations33. The smart buildings discussed in the passage _______.A) would cause serious financial problemsB) would be worthwhile though costlyC) would increase the complexity of architectural designD) can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes34. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on _______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes35. The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to_______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computers.C) outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materials.D) report new developments in constructing quake resistant building.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. Even plants can run a fever, especially when they're under attack by insects or disease. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away straight up. A decade ago, adapting the infrared (红外线) scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmersprecisely target pesticide (杀虫剂) spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don't have pest (害虫) problems.Even better, Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, aninfrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running "fevers". Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, andrefinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. "This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States," says George Oerther of Texas A&M. Ray Jackson, who recently retiredfrom the Department of Agriculture. He thinks remoteinfrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.36. Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are _______.A) sprayed with pesticidesB) facing an infrared scannerC) in poor physical conditionD) exposed to excessive sun rays37. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to _______.A) estimate the damage to the cropsB) measure the size of the affected areaC) draw a color-coded mapD) locate the problem area38. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by _______.A) resorting to spot-sprayingB) consulting infrared scanning expertsC) transforming poisoned rainD) detecting crop problems at an early stage39. The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties -- _______.A) the lack of official supportB) its high costC) the lack of financial backingD) its failure to help increase production40. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of _______.A) the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce.B) growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC) the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD) full support from agricultural expertsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

大学英语四级考试第5期及答案Part I WritingCity ProblemsNowsdays, millions of migrant workers flock into cities in search of jobs and better living. However, with the sharp rise in the urban population, many problems arise in the development of cities.Firstly, cities become more and more crowded, putting much pressure upon transportation, housing, sanitation, education, employment and so on. City services and facilities have been strained to a breaking point. Secondly, a growing number of private cars emit a huge amount of carbon dioxide, leaving the air mercilessly polluted. What is more, the city is also threatened by an increase in crime. There is not a single day passing without the report of someone being robbed, kidnapped or even murdered.Last but not least, city-dwellers are not only separated from the nature but also isolated from each other, even not knowing name of their next-door neighbor.All these problems have harmed the attractiveness of the city. More people may seek to live in the suburbs if there is n’t any improvement.Part II Reading Comprehension （Skimming and Scanning）1—7 Y Y N N Y Y NG 8.another meter 9.piped in from the river. 10.not yet clear Part III Listening Comprehension11---15 DBBCB 16---20 BAAAB 21---25 CABDA26---30 BCABA31---35 DCBDA36.programs 37.enrollments 38. offering 39. demand 40.professions41. repair 42. increased 43.avoided44.Advanced technology is the most important reason for the rise in adult education.45.V arious courses are offered, among which foreign languages, computers and communication courses are popular.46.

88. If I were you有句意可知”如果我是你”表示的是一种假设的情况,故用if 引导的条件状语从句来表示虚拟语气。
用if 一道条件状语从句表虚拟时,如果表示现在的情况,谓语动词要用过去式(be 动词用were);如果表示将来的情况,谓语动词要用would (could等)或were to+ 动词原形的形式。
89. postponing the conference to the end of this quarter在这句话中,mind作动词,意为”介意,在乎”,其后应跟dong 的形式。
另外,应注意”季度”的英文表达是quarter。
90. With various factors considered已给出的部分句子结构是完整的。
所以中文部分可译成短语或从句来作整句的状语。
由于主句用的是被动语态,并没有明确指出施动者,所以所译的部分最好比买内使用含有施动者的主动句形式。
在次可使用介词with来引导这一结构,而”考虑”和”因素”之间是动宾关系,所以应使用动词的过去分词来表示被动。
91. After having his hair cut待译部分强调的是”理发完成”这个结果,而非理发的执行者,故可用have sth. done 的结构。
还应注意have sb. do sth.这个结构,也意为”让摸人做某事”,但此时,要指出动作的发出者是谁。
2010年冬大学英语四级考试模拟题二答案Part I WritingWill Phones Kill Letter Writing？Today, with the quick pace of life, people, especially young people, usually do not have as much time to write letters as before. They communicate with each other through the electric line. They are becoming so dependent on telephones that some people say that one day phones will kill letter writing. But I don’t think it is the case.It is true that communicating by letters is not as convenient as by telephone. However, letter writing makes people think clearly. When a person writes, he must organize his thoughts and express his ideas and feelings more logically. In addition, letters give you a chance to read them again. Isn’t it exciting to receive a letter from your parents or your friends？Isn’t it pleasant to red the letter again and to feel again the excitement and the pleasantness？So if you have time, write a letter right now, and you will certainly give your friends and your family a pleasant surprise.Part II Reading Comprehension （Skimming and Scanning）1—7.

When the waiter offered us the chopsticks, my friend asked him to change one-off ones for him. Although the waiter explained that the chopsticks of the restaurant had been washed and sterilized, my friend was not satisfied and insisted that they replace them with one-off chopsticks.I tried to persuade my friend into using the chopsticks provided by the restaurant, because I think the use of one-off chopsticks is such a waste of wood. Our country is short of natural resources, including forest, so we should try to preserve them. It is reported that a lot of trees will be saved.Additionally, we should be aware of the fact that natural resources, especially those that cannot be regenerated, are the treasure of all human beings. They should be cherished and made full use of.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1—7 BBCCDAB 8. the sea 9. 90% 10. greenhouse gasesPart III Listening Comprehension11---15 DDCAB 16---20 ADCBB 21---25 DBCAB 26---30 DABDD 31---35 BCDBC36survive 37 complicated 38 offenders 39 whereby 40 incurring 41 influence42serving 43 restore44.
