G8 Summit

　　Leaders of the Group of Eight Major Industrialized Nations （G8） will meet in Scotland　in July this year. Representatives from China， India， Mexico， South Africa and Brazil have also been invited. Here's what the G8 leaders want from the meeting.

　　British Prime Minister Tony Blair wants the G8 to cancel debt to the world's poorest countries. He wants them to double aid to Africa to 50 billion pounds by 2010. He has also proposed reducing subsidies to Western farmers and removing restrictions on African exports. This has not got the approval of all members because it will hurt their agricultural interests. On climate change， Blair wants concerted （共同的） action by reducing carbon emissions （排放）。

　　US President George W. Bush agrees to give help to Africa. But he says he doesn't like the idea of increasing aid to countries as 'it will increase corruption. Bush said he would not sign an agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions at the summit， according to media. The US is the only G8 member not to have signed the Kyoto Protocol （京都议定书）。 Although the US is the world's biggest polluter， Bush so far refuses to believe there is sufficient scientific data to establish beyond a doubt that there is a problem.

French President Jacques Chirac supports Blair on Africa and climate change. He is determined to get the US to sign the climate change deal.
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroder remains doubtful of Blair's Africa proposals. Schroder's officials have dismissed the notion that money will solve Africa's problems as "old thinking." Berlin says that African states should only receive extra money if they can prove they've solved the corruption problem.

　　Russian President Vladimir Putin was doubtful about the value of more aid to Africa. But he has seen a way to make this work to his advantage. Putin intends to use the aid to Africa as a springboard （跳板） next year to propose aid to the former Soviet republics of Georgia， Uzbekistan， Tajikistan and Moldova.

　　Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's priorities are a seat on the UN Security Council， for which he will be lobbying （游说） at the summit. And he's concerned about the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's nuclear weapons programme.

　　16 The G8 countries include China, India, Mexico, South Africa and Brazil,
A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned

Nice Name But She's So Deadly

　　1　More than a million people in the United States were told to leave their homes over the weekend as Hurricane （飓风） Dennis headed to the Gulf coast， after killing at least 15 people in the Caribbean Sea.

　　2　If you read the news often enough=， you may notice that all hurricanes are given names. Why is that？ Remember， there can be more than one hurricane operating at one time. Without naming them， we could get confused about which storm we're talking about.

　　3　For hundreds of years， hurricanes in the Caribbean were named after the particular religious day on which they occurred. One Australian meteorologist （气象学家） began giving women's names to tropical storms at the end of the 19th century. In 1953， the US National Weather Service， which is responsible for tracking hurricanes and issuing warnings， began using female names for storms. By i979， both women and men's names were being used. One name for each letter of the alphabet （字母表） is selected， except for Q， U and Z.

　　4　So who decides which names are used' each year？ The World Meteorological Organization uses six lists in rotation， so each list is reused every six years.

　　5　Here's a list of the 2005 Atlantic hurricanes， according to the US National Hurricane Centre： Arlene， Bret， Cindy， Dennis， Emily， Franklin， Gert， Harvey， Irene， Jose， Katrina， Lee， Maria， Nate， Ophelia， Philippe， Rita， Stan， Tammy， Vince， Wilma.

　　第4部分：阅读理解（第31～45题，每题3分，共45分）

　　下面有3篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题定1个最佳选项。

　　第一篇 A Society Without a Formal Authority

　　In the seventeenth century， European soldiers who came across some Indian groups in the western Great Lakes found that several native tribes （部落） were living in the area without a formal leadership system. They appeared to be "quite friendly with each other without a formal authority！"

　　Not only did the Indians appear to lack a formal system of authority， but they also deeply hated any efforts to control their actions. All members of the tribes knew what was required of them by lifelong （一生的） familiarity with the tasks of the area. These tasks tended to be simple， since the Indians' rate of social change was slow. Thus， although subgroups such as soldiers had recognized leaders， no real authority was required. Rather than giving direct orders （which were considered rough）， members of the tribes would arouse others to action by examples.

It would be difficult, if not impossible, to carry out such a system in our own society. Most of us have grown up under one authority or another for as long as we can remember. Our parents, our teachers, our bosses, our government all have the recognized right under certain conditions to tell us what to do. The authority is so much a part of our culture that it is hard for us to imagine a workable society without it. We have been used to relying on authority to get things done and would probably be uncomfortable with the Indian methods of examples on a large scale.
Of course, the major reason why the Indian system would not be suitable for us is that our society is too large. The number of tasks that various members of our society have to perform often under tight time and resource limitations could not be treated by the Indian system, in modern societies, the formal authority system is necessary to achieve any social objectives.
31 Which of the following statements about the European soldiers is correct?

　　A　They had no leaders.

　　B　They treated the Indian groups well.

　　C　They came across some Indian groups.

　　D　They found the Indian groups friendly to them.

　　32 Members of the tribes got others to do things

　　A　with resolution.

　　B　by examples.

　　C　by force.

　　D　with effort.

　　33 According to the author, it is hard for a society to work without

　　A　a recognized authority.
