| No country in the world has more daily
newspapers than the USA. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in
Japan, 164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers
is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Distinguished
dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence
all over the country. However, the Post and the Times are net national
newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or LeMonde is in France,
since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present
detailed accounts of national and international news, but many tend to limit
themselves to state or cite news. Like the press .in most other countries, American newspapers range from the "sensational", which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, A. Britain than in the USA B. France than in Britain C. the USA than in Britain or France D. France than in the USA or Britain [单项选择]For Tony Blair, the outside world is a place of moral certainty. There are good guys and bad guys, and what needs to be done is pretty clear. Home, by contrast, is a messy sort of place, where the prime minister’s job is not to uphold eternal values but to force through some unpopular changes that may make the country work a bit better.

No wonder Mr. Blair is not looking so steady. The area where this is most obvious, and where it matters most is the public services. Mr. Blair faces a difficulty here which is partly of his own making. By f A. prompt fulfillment of its promises B. timely coordination with other departments C. dedication to the efficiency of administration D. involvement in a dangerous stage [填空题]

The whole industrial process which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance or the ecological(生态的)balance as it is known. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed(处理) of sensibly, but clearly while more and more new goods are produced and made complex, there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people therefore see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing population.
