However, it is not rare that either party to a contract may fail t

9、o perform his duties, or his performance is _ _2_ with the terms provided on the contract. In case one party _3_ the contract, he may cause damage or loss to the other, who is entitled to take _4_ measures according to the contract and the law.Most international sales contracts contain a claim claus

10、e in which the principles, time and applicable law of remedy are provided.To claim damages is a major remedy for breach of contract.According to the Convention, the buyer still maintains the right to claim damages even if he has resorted to other remedial measures. But how much should the damages be

11、?The principles for determining the sum of damages are _5_ in different laws. The Convention provides that damages for breach of contract consist of a sum _6_ to the loss, including loss of profit suffered by the injured party as a consequence of the breach, including loss of profit suffered by the

12、injured party as a consequence of the breach, and the damages may not exceed the loss which the party in breach, and the damages may not exceed the loss which the party in breach foresaw or ought to have foreseen at the time of the conclusion of the contract, in the _7_ of the facts and matters of w

13、hich he then knew or ought to have known. The basic principle for damages claim is that the damages paid will enable the economic state of the injured party to be recovered to that extent where the contract would have been performed.In case of non-delivery, the buyer may declare the contract avoided

14、. In a reasonable manner and within a reasonable time, the buyer may claim damages.Two points are _8_ of special attention: first, according to the Convention and laws of many states, the buyer must take reasonable measures to _9_ further loss. If he does not do so, which causes further losses, he i

15、s not _10_ to claim damages for the further loss which could have been prevented; secondly, when the buyer claims damages, he does not have to prove whether the conduct of the seller contains any fault.

18、er contamination on computer are increasingly being hailed as cheap and efficient ways of studying the environment. And as recent findings regarding the Chesapeake Bay indicate, computers can demonstrate complex interactions that simply cannot be determined using other methods. Computer modeling has

19、 revealed that approximately 25 percent of the nitrogen in the Chesapeake comes from air pollution wafting in from as far away as western Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky. (1) _ To arrive at this conclusion, Robin Dennis of the Environmental Protection Agency and his colleagues digitally recreated th

20、e atmosphere above the eastern U.S. and combined this information with another model that examined how water flows into the Chesapeake. In particular, the group simulated how air moves across the country and how nitrogen pollution reacts with other airborne compounds and then drops to the ground dir

21、ectly or in rain. Conventional wisdom has generally held that nitrogen pollution falls out fairly quickly. Thus, simple models had suggested that air pollution from local sources probably contributed to the bays condition. (2) _ Although water testing helps to monitor the state of the bay, models de

22、monstrate how the pollution gets there. Despite several years of regulations on waterborne pollution, nitrogen levels have not decreased as much as expected. (3) _ Much of the Chesapeake modeling was carried out at the EPA s three-year-old National Environmental Supercomputing Center, which currentl

23、y provides computer time for about 40 different projects on topics such as urban air pollution or the effects of landfills. Instead of having to sample a huge region to determine where a toxic compound might end up if released by a factory, researchers using computers need only am few samples to est

24、ablish original conditions. (4) _ Such techniques can often save a great deal of money. In the early 1980s, researchers assessing the feasibility of a field experiment to study acid rain in the eastern U.S. - a project similar in scale to one that might test the findings from the Chesapeake model pu

25、t the price tag at $ 500 million. In contrast, Dennis estimates that the project to model the air pollution affecting the bay has cost around $ 500 000. Yet for all their power, models cannot include every aspect of a natural system. (5) _ For instance, predictions about global warming have been con

26、troversial, because, as critics point out, various models, each with district assumptions, can give vastly different results. Having absolute faith in a simulation of an environmental problem can be tough, even for computer experts. Stephen E. Cabaniss of Kent University emphasize that for now, old-

27、fashioned laboratory experiments as well as actual sampling of water, soil and air are still vital pieces of information needed to validate computer data to or nudge models in the right direction.A And although experiments also cannot evaluate every detail, models in particular trigger complaints ab

28、out accuracy. B If people will not believe a computer model that forecasts a rise in global temperature over the next century, it is unclear whether they will accept a computers assessment of what is safe to put in drinking water. C Then, intricate computer programs, which consider details down to t

29、he movement of atoms, fill in aspects such as how a compound will degrade in the environment, whether any secondary products will be toxic, how the chemicals might percolate down to the water table or how they might accumulate in wildlife. In some cases, the toxic compound being studied may not have

30、 been produced yet.D. Dennis asserts that although controls on water pollution must not be abandoned, attempts to lower nitrogen levels in the bay may not be fully successful unless air pollution is also reduced. E But the more extensive model revealed that such pollution presents a much larger prob

31、lem: 25 percent of nitrogen pollution is still being carried aloft 500 miles from its source. F Don t put away those lab coats yet.G This finding alters the current perception that the bay s greatest problems stem from more local waterborne pollution, such as sewage and runoff from agriculture.III形式

40、ourselves of our offer in your own interest.IV. 风格意义类试题（共30%）在某些法律制度下，贸易条款只是用来确定如何划分双方的费用，至少从传统上来讲一直如此。不过，在当前的国际惯例中，贸易条款的主要目的是确定卖方在哪些方面已经履行了他的义务，因而从法律意义上来说，货物已经交付了买方。这些义务若不明确，会对契约双方十分有害。缺乏准确性就几乎不可避免地会导致纠纷，包括诉讼，并且会使日常业务的“经营性”开支大量增加。此外，处在不同国家的买卖双方很不愿意受对方国家种种法律和习惯的制约。他们对使用本国的法律可能会感到放心，然而，他们对外国使用其规则与解释得出的后果就难以估计了。要想使贸易条款真正发挥作用，条款应具有普遍的适用性，并应使双方的义务明确。这就是制定“国际贸易条款”的目的。【精品文档】第 8 页
