听力原文： Another reason for the worldwide use of the English language is its use throughout the Commonwealth,' which includes a quarter of the world's people in one-sixth of the world's land area. All of its forty-nine member states have at some time been under British rule. In some of them English is the first language; others, with several different languages of their own, find English the most convenient means of communication except for small-scale business. Today the Commonwealth is a loose association of independent sovereign states, nearly all of their members of the United Nations, mattered among the continents and their adjacent islands. British rule still continues in a few groups of islands, all but one of them too small in population to be independent states but preferring to continue the British connection rather than to attach themselves to any neighboring states.

The transformation of the British Empire into a "Commonwealth" of independent nations began, in part, in 1867 with the establishment of Canada as a fully self-governing country, still associated with Britain. Australia and New Zealand followed. With all these, full power was transferred, with agreement on both sides, to the representative institutions of people mostly descended from emigrants from Britain, though part of Canada was French.

The new Commonwealth began in 1947, when India and Pakistan became fully independent. India's membership of the Commonwealth was not affected by its decision three years later to become a republic. All the major colonial territories, in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, had become independent within twenty years. In every case power was transferred, with the help and agreement of the British government, to ministries responsible to parliaments elected by universal suffrage, but with guarantees of protection for minorities, such as small tribes.

One country at first declared itself independent without British agreement. In 1965 Rhodesia had already enjoyed internal self--government for forty years, but with a regime that in effect gave power to the white minority, who were mainly settlers of British origin. The arrangement was objectionable to other countries in the Commonwealth, and the British insisted that it must be changed. When the leaders of the white-dominated regime unilaterally declared their independence, the British government considered their regime to be illegitimate, and joined the United Nations in imposing sanctions, while refusing to use military force. Eventually the white leaders agreed to an amended system which would give power to a government elected by equal universal suffrage. An election on this basis gave power to black ministers, and the Republic of Zimbabwe was inaugurated in 1980.

In many independent countries of the Commonwealth the British cultural influence survives, and some of their educational systems still reflect this influence. So too with parliamentary and legal processes. Sonic send military officers to British colleges for training. But British governments, of both parties, have regularly avoided any interference with their relations with other states, or with their internal politics -- although in some cases the original institutions have been fundamentally altered, replaced by military rule or other forms of more or less arbitrary power. In the United Nations, members of the Commonwealth are quite often opposed to one another.

第2题

The European Union revealed on January 23rd how it plans to save the world. A mammoth clim

ate-change plan spells out in detail how much pain each of its 27 members will have to beat if the EU is to meet ambitious targets set by national leaders last March. The aim is to cut greenhouse-gas emissions by 2020 by at least a fifth, and more than double to 20% the amount of energy produced from renewable sources such as wind or wave power. If fuel from plants proves green enough, 10% of the fuel used in transport must come from biofuels by the same date. The new plan turns these goals into national targets. This will surely start much grumbling and months of horse-trading, as the European Commissions recommendations are turned into binding law by national governments and the European Parliament. Countries with greenery in their veins are being asked to take more of the burden uian newer members. Sweden, for example, is being invited to meet 49% of its energy from renewables. At the other end, Malta gets a renewables target of just 10%. It is a similar story when it comes to cutting greenhouse gases; by 2020, Denmark must cut emissions by 20% from 2005 levels; Bulgaria and Romania, the newest members, may let their emissions rise by 20%. EU leadership on climate change will not come cheap. The direct costs alone may be 60 billion ($ 87 billion) , or about 0.5% of total EU GDP, by 2020, said the commissions president, Jose Manuel Barroso. But this is still presented as a bargain compared with the cost of inaction , which Mr. Barroso put at ten times as high. "Oh, leading the world in the fight against climate change need not cost jobs. Even in the most heavily polluting branches of heavy industry. We want to keep out industry in Europe," insisted Mr. Barroso. The trick to achieve the seemingly impossible targets is the EU s emissions-trading scheme (ETS). This obliges big polluters such as power companies or manufacturing giants to trade permits that allow them to emit CO2 and other climate-change nasties, within a steadily tightening overall cap. If countries such as the US do not sign binding international agreements by 2001, then the heaviest greenhouse-gas emitters inside the EU may be given these allowances free, the commission suggests. Or, it threatens, firms to buy ETS permits.

To its member nations, the EU s plan means_____.

A．a fierce competition

B．an ideal goal

C．a good opportunity

D．a difficult task
