For these countries, economical growth is a very important goal. They want to attract new industries, and so they put more controls on industries which cause pollution.Cubatao, an industrial town of 85 000 people in Brazil, is an example of the connection between industrial development and pollution. In 1954, Cubatao had no industry. Today it has more than twenty large factories, which produce many pollutants. The largest factory which exists in the south of the town has caused at least two tenible polluting disasters. The people of the town are exposed by the poisonous matters in their surroundings, and the bad effects can be clearly seen. Birth shortcomings are extremely common. Among children and grown-ups, lung problems are sometimes twelve times common in Cubatao than in other places.It is true that Brazil, like many other countries, has laws against pollution, but these laws are not earned out strict enough. For companies, it is cheaper of take no notice of the laws and pay the fines than to buy the expensive equipment that will reduce the pollution. It is clear, therefore, that economic growth is more important to the government than to the health of the workers. However, the responsibility does not completely lay with the Brazilian government. The example of Cubatao shows that international companies are not acting in a responsible way neither. A number of factories in the town are owned by large companies from France, Italy, and the US They are doing things in Brazil that they would not be able to do at home. If they caused the same amount of pollution at home, they would be severely punishing or even put out of business.(83)39.S2参考答案1 .Should Foreign Abbreviations Be Banned on TV? Recently CCTV banned the use of borrowed English abbreviations such as NBA WTO and CPI in all its programs. Some people applaud the move maintaining that it helps preserve the purity of the Chinese language. The media is deeply engaged in the ongoing Westernization of Chinese language. If the phenomenon is not stopped Chinese will be gradually reduced from an independent expression system to a mixture of languages. Others however shake their heads. It is not persuasive they say that the media shy away from foreign abbreviations to preserve the purity of the Chinese language and culture. After all languages* integration is a very complicated process and its irrational to impose a simple ban on certain words. Besides the use of foreign abbreviations won't shake the status of Chinese as an embodiment of and the basis of the 5000-year-old Chinese culture. As far as I am concerned there is no need to ban the use of foreign abbreviations on TV. A language is great not because of its purity but because of its tolerance to other languages. Chinese is so rich and beautiful because it constantly absorbs words abbreviations and phrases from other languages. Its totally unnecessary to fear about the disappearance of Chinese if we allow English to mix with Chinese.Should Foreign Abbreviations Be Banned on TV?

I hereby earnestly invite a foreign young ladycollege student preferredto make a three week touring trip with me. My plan is to set off next weekend when the summer vacation officially begins. The first stop is Kunming the world-renowned city for its beauty and mild temperature. We'll get there by train and stay for 2 days and then well head for Jinggangshan a former revolutionary base as well as a natural beauty spot. After a 3-day visit there we will take a long-distance coach to a nearby port city by the Yangtze River and board a downstream ship to Shanghai so that we can enjoy the great scenery alongside the third longest river in the world. As everybody knows Shanghai is one of the busiest and fastest developing cities in China. I'd like to have a good tour in Shanghai so the stay there will be about half a week. A famous Chinese saying goes HJust as there is Paradise in heaven there are Suzhou and Hangzhou on Earth" so a 4-day visit to these two cities near Shanghai is a must. All together our trip will last about three weeks. I only expect that my travel-mate could bear her own expenses and talk with me in beautiful English and I would be an excellent guide for her since I major in tourist guiding. Those interested please contact me either through email (Liming ) or phone call (12345678).Travel-mate Wanted I'm a 19- year-old female sophomore named Li Ming.

As can be seen from the statistics the U.S.A.one of the richest countries in the world-had the highest GNP and daily calorie intake the longest life expectancy and the lowest infant mortality rate. The other developing countries had a considerably lower quality of life. Egypt Indonesia and Bolivia were similar in their range of indicators with Egypt having the highest quality of life among the three. However Egypt's infant mortality rate was slightly higher than Indonesia's at 40 deaths per 1000 compared to 31 in Indonesia. Bangladesh had by far the lowest quality of life in all the four indicators. Its GNP was only about one-fortieth that of the U.S.A. The figure in terms of the daily calorie supply per head in Bangladesh is the half of that in U.S.A. and its infant mortality rate was 6 times greater. In conclusion it can be seen from the economic indicators that the four developing countries have a long way to go before reaching the same level of quality of life as the U.S.A. At the same time the U.S:A. has the responsibility to help the other countries to develop their economies and improve their people's living standards.The table uses four broad economic indicators to show the standard of living in five selected countries in 2000, including both the most developed nation in the world and some of the much less developed nations.

Nowadays ©there is a widely held belief that diploma is everything. Some people will gain a higher diploma at all costs and others force their children to get a higher diploma. This phenomenon can be explained by at least two reasons. ® On the one hand people believe a higher diploma can ©guarantee a prosperous future such as successful careers and respectable positions.On the other hand the diploma people hold is attached to too much importance. Having a diploma is a precondition for people to do almost everything fbr example to find a job to have a date with a girl. In my opinion ©it is no doubt that diploma is important because it shows a person's academic level and ability. However a diploma cannot prove everything ©no matter how high a diploma is. A higher diploma can only tell others that the holder has received this kind of education. As for whether he or she is competent in working and whether he or she is virtuous these still remain as questions.Is a Diploma Everything?
