In The Sorrows of Empire, Chalmers Johnson advances the disturbing claim that the United S
tates' Cold War-era military power and far-flung base system have, in the last decade, been consolidated in a new form. of global imperial rule. The United States, according to Johnson, has become "a military juggernaut intent on world domination."

Driven by a triumphalist ideology, an exaggerated sense of threats, and a self-serving military- industrial complex, this juggernaut is tightening its grip on much of the world. The Pentagon has re- placed the State Department as the primary shaper of foreign policy. Military commanders in regional headquarters are modern-day proconsuls, warrior-diplomats who direct the United States' imperial reach. Johnson fears that this military empire will corrode democracy, bankrupt the nation, spark opposition, and ultimately end in a Soviet-style. collapse.

In this rendering, the American military empire is a novel form. of domination. Johnson de- scribes it as an "international protection racket: mutual defense treaties, military advisory groups, and military forces stationed in foreign countries to" defend" against often poorly defined, overblown, or nonexistent threats." These arrangements create "satellites"—ostensibly independent countries whose foreign relations revolve around the imperial state.

Johnson's previous polemic, Blowbaek, asserted that post-1945 U.S. spheres of influence in East Asia and Latin America were as coercive and exploitative as their Soviet counterparts. The Sorrows of Empire continues this dubious line. Echoing 1960s revisionism, Johnson asserts that the United States' Cold War security system of alliances and bases was built on manufactured threats and driven by expansionary impulses. The United States was not acting in its own defense; it was exploiting opportunities to build an empire. The Soviet Union and the United States, according to this argument, were more alike than different: both militarized their societies and foreign policies and expanded outward, establishing imperial rule through "hub and spoke" systems of client states and political dependencies.

Unfortunately, Johnson offers no coherent theory of why the United States seeks empire. At one point, he suggests that the American military empire is founded on "a vast complex of interests, commitments, and projects." The empire of bases has become institutionalized in the military establishment and has taken on a life of its own. There is no discussion, however, of the forces within U. S. politics that resist or reject empire. As a result, Johnson finds imperialism everywhere and in everything the United States does, in its embrace of open markets and global economic integration as much as in its pursuit of narrow economic gains.

According to the passage, which of the following is the most important character shared by both satellite and "satellite" countries?

A.Revolving around a center body.

B.have no orbit of their own.

C.dependent.

D.smaller than others.

A British company has come up with a system that will write documents dictated over the te
lephone, using speech recognition technology, and then E-mail the completed document back to the user. The Speech Machine's system can be dialed up from any touch-tone telephone. Users simply speak their letter, report, memorandum or other document into the phone, where it is picked up by computer, which writes it into a file. A human operator, checks the completed text for errors before being sent to the user's E-mail box, usually within three hours or by the next working day.

Behind the success of the product, which was used to write this article, lies military technology. Traditionally, speech recognition systems have been limited in use because they must be treated with care and dictated to slowly with no interfering background noise. In addition, previous systems have had to get accustomed to the voice of an individual user. The Speech Machine's system can operate in high-noise environments and will usually recognize voices immediately. Features like this were developed by the Defense Research Agency.

Users must dictate punctuation marks, such as "comma" and "new paragraph" which the system recognizes as such rather than writing the exact words. The finished document can also be faxed to clients or to the user's base office. The benefit of the service is that it requires no extra training for users. Many professionals already know how to dictate documents because they do it all the time. Using the Net, the clients and typists can be anywhere in the world and the service will run 24 hours a day.

According to the passage, the Speech Machine's system was developed by ______.

A.the telephone office

B.a British company

C.the Defense Research Agency

D.the military service

Change—or the ability to adapt oneself to a changing environment—is essential to evolution
. The farmer whose land is required for housing or industry must adapt himself: he can move to another place and master the problems peculiar to it; he can change his occupation, perhaps after a period of training; or he can starve to death. A nation which cannot adapt its trade or defense requirements to meet world conditions faces economic or military disaster. Nothing is fixed and permanently stable. There must be movement forward, which is progress of a sort, or movement backwards, which is decay and deterioration. In this context, tradition can be a force for good or for evil. As long as it offers a guide, it helps the ignorant and the uninformed to take a step forward and, thereby, to adapt themselves to changed circumstances. Tradition, or custom, can guide the hunter as effectively as it can influence the nervous hostess. But if we make an idol (偶像) of tradition, it ceases to become a guide and becomes an obstacle lying across the path of change and progress. If we insist on trying to plot the future by the past, we clearly handicap ourselves and invite failure. The better course is to accept the help which tradition can give, but realizing that it necessarily has its roots in the past, to be well aware of its limitations in a changing world.

According to this passage, which of the following statements is true?

A.To avoid decay and deterioration, we must keep the world permanently stable.

B.The world is always changing, so we must adjust ourselves to new conditions.

C.The important point of evolution is that the world undergoes movement forward and movement backward alternately.

D.Tradition often become an obstacle lying across the path of change and progress.

根据下列文章,请回答 16~22 题。

A IDS

The World Health Organization(WHO)says as many as 10 million persons worldwide may have the virus that causes AIDS(艾滋病).Experts believe about 350,000 persons have the disease。And one million more may get it in the next five years.In the United States,about 50,000 persons have died with AIDS.The country’s top medical official says more than 90 percent of all Americans who had the AIDS virus five years ago are dead.

There is no cure for AIDS and no vaccine(疫苗)or medicine to prevent it.However,researchers know much more about AIDS than they did just a few years ago.We now know that AIDS is caused by a virus.The virus invades healthy cells,including white blood cells that are part of our defense system against disease.It takes control of the healthy cell’s genetic(基因的)material and forces the cell to make a copy of the virus.The cell then dies.And the virus-caused particles move on to invade and kill more healthy cells.

The AIDS virus is carried in a person’s body fluids(液体).The virus can be passed sexually or by sharing instruments used to take intravenous(进入静脉的)drugs.It also can be passed in blood products or from a pregnant woman with AIDS to her developing baby.

Many stories about the spread of AIDS are false.You cannot get AIDS by working or attending school with someone who has the disease.You cannot get it by touching drinking glasses or other objects used by such persons.Experts say no one has gotten AIDS by living with,caring for or touching an AIDS patient.

第 16 题 According to the WH0,there are now 10 million AIDS patients in the world.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned
