Urgent research into the ecological balances of sea life and how they are affected by pollution is needed. As scientific knowledge stands now, we do not know how much damage the oceans can endure.
The oceans contain enormous resources of energy, food, and raw materials. Judiciously exploited, these resources can make a significant difference to man's survival and the quality of his life in an overpopulated world. Some operational framework for safeguarding the interests of all nations must clearly be formulated to prevent those nations, who possess the technology and can afford the research and exploitation, from obtaining the wealth for themselves.
To try to institute a system of government for the oceans is fraught with obvious difficulties. Failure to come to an agreement would undermine confidence in the viability of international action to bring about peaceful political and economic relations in other spheres. On the other hand, if agreement at a future conference could be realized only by abandoning the principle of internationalism embodied in the concept of the oceans as the common heritage of mankind, this would be the greater failure.
Internationalism in this context need not aim at supernational administration and safekeeping of the oceans; what is needed, rather, is the formulation and acceptance of guidelines to ensure that the oceans benefit the greatest number of nations. This would require nations with immediate economic and political stakes in the oceans and the power to enforce their self-interest to hold off that very power and to weigh se]f-interest against the long-term interest of the concert of nations.
One of the most pressing problems regarding the sea is its conservation because of ______.
A．the high percent decrease of fish catches during the past forty years
B．ever-increasing amount of waste dumping into the sea
C．invalidness of an international law
D．Both A and B
In addition, Americans may need to place a strong value on cooperation on a national scale to achieve important national objectives. The American idea of the national good has never been based on national cooperation but rather on the freedom of the individual, maintaining those conditions that provide the greatest freedom and prosperity for the individual. It is far more difficult for Americans to accept shared sacrifice for the common good and well-being of the entire country. For example, although the majority of Americans believe that it is extremely important to balance the national budget and reduce the deficit, they do not want to see cuts in government programs that benefit them personally.
The American value of competition also hinders the development of a spirit of national cooperation. Competition sometimes encourages feelings of suspicion rather than the mutual trust that is necessary for successful national cooperation. Although Americans often cooperate successfully on the local level -- in neighborhood groups and churches, for example -- they become suspicious when the national government becomes involved. For example, on the national level, they may see themselves as part of an interest group that is competing with other interest groups for government funds. A request by the national government for shared sacrifice may be seen as coercive and destructive rather than voluntary and constructive. However, the demands of the 21st century may compel Americans to place a greater value on national cooperation to solve problems that affect them all, directly and indirectly.
Considering natural resources, what should Americans do according to the passage？
A．They should use less and waste less.
B．They should try to help the developing countries with the conversation of resources.
C．They should raise money in order to protect the natural resources.
D．They should be united as one to fight against the destruction of forests.
Fifty years ago nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a
new idea; timber was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long-term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation" had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.
For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life. To know about the water table in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.
According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that______.
A．they had no idea about scientific forestry
B．they were not aware of the significance of nature study
C．they had little or no sense of environmental protection
D．they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials

Dear Sir/Madam:
I am interested in applying for the managing consultant position you have posted on your Web site. I believe that my background and experience make me an attractive candidate for your consideration.
After graduating from State University, I founded a small computer graphic-design company, Online Style. This company became increasingly successful over the years. I hold 65 percent of the shares and continue on its board of directors as chairperson, although I have relinquished my position as general manager and stepped down as CEO.
The agency I now direct, Business First, provides consulting services for companies interested in improving the effectiveness of their advertising. Despite the success of this new business venture, I am seeking at this time to relocate to Venice for personal reasons.
As you can see from the enclosed resume, I have a broad background in business development and marketing as well as advertising. Because of my diverse experience, I have developed strong skills in financial consulting. I have also acquired expertise in designing presentations for large audiences and planning successful business meetings.
I believe my skills and abilities fit the description of the person you are seeking. While I am knowledgeable about general business issues in both the domestic and international arenas, I will want to thoroughly understand those that are unique to your business, and I am confident that I can do so rapidly. One of your requirements, maintaining good community relations, happens to be one of my greatest strengths. I would be happy to provide you with names of people who can personally testify to this.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my skills could benefit your organization. Please find my telephone number and e-mail address in my resume. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Estelle Juti

Recently, progress has been made—more and more Americans are recycling their paper, cans, bottles, and other goods—but old wasteful habits die hard. Furthermore, the need to protect the environment may conflict with the need for jobs, as in the Northwest, where conservationists battle lumber companies that want to cut down ancient redwood trees. A belief in the value of conservation is still compared with other American values; it can become stronger only as Americans see the need for it more clearly.
In addition, Americans may need to place a strong value on cooperation on a national scale to achieve important national objectives. The American idea of the national good has never been based on national cooperation but rather on the freedom of the individual, maintaining those conditions that provide the greatest freedom and prosperity for the individual.

For example, although the majority of Americans believe that it is extremely important to balance the national budget and reduce the deficit, they do not want to see cuts in government programs that benefit them personally.
The American value of competition also hinders the development of a spirit of national cooperation. Competition sometimes encourages feelings of suspicion rather than the mutual trust that is necessary for successful national cooperation. Although Americans often cooperate successfully on the local level—in neighborhood groups and churches , for example— they become suspicious when the national government becomes involved.

A request by the national government for shared sacrifice may be seen as coercive and destructive rather than voluntary and constructive. However, the demands of the 21st century may compel Americans to place a greater value on national cooperation to solve problems that affect them all, directly and indirectly.
The best title of this passage could be______.
A．Which is Better, New Value or Old Value

C．The Need for New National Values
D．Cooperation and Competition

The UN is the result of a long history of efforts to promote international cooperation. In the late 18th century, German philosopher Immanuel Kant proposed a federation or "league" of the world's nations. Kant believed that such a federation would allow countries to unite and punish any nation that committed an act of aggression. This type of union by nations to protect each other against an aggressor is sometimes referred to as collective security. Kant also felt that the federation would protect the rights of small nations that often become pawn (被人利用者) in power straggles between larger countries. The UN's charter established six distinct bodies that serve different functions: (1) the General Assembly, (2) the Security Council, (3) the Secretariat (秘书处), (4) the Economic and Social Council, (5) the International Court of Justice, and (6) the Trusteeship (信托投资理事会) Council.
The UN started in 1945 with 51 founding members—including the 50 countries that had attended the San Francisco conference, and Poland, which was not at the conference but signed the charter later. New members are admitted to the UN on the recommendation of the Security Council by a two-thirds vote of the General Assembly. Membership is open to any country that supports the UN's mission and is willing to follow the rules and responsibilities specified in the charter. In its early years, Western countries dominated the ON and the General Assembly regularly sided with the United States. The Soviet Union provided a balance to Western influence by using its veto (否决) power in the Security Council.
What is the main purpose of the UN？
A．To maintain local peace.
B．To maintain world peace.
C．To encourage business.
D．To encourage international trade.
