In collective(集体的) sports like basketball, volleyball or football, we will learn the importance of cooperation(合作). And sports can also help us relax after wo
3、rk or study. However, as the saying goes, “there are two sides of everything.” Sometimes we may hurt other players or ourselves if we are not careful enough when participating(参加) in sports activities. Whats more, too much or hard practice can be bad for our health. Sports can make us healthy both p
4、hysically and psychologically(心理地). It is also a good way for people to know each other and can improve friendship between people. So long as we are careful enough, sports can do us nothing but good. 21. can make us strong. A. Sleeping B. Singing C. Making friends D. Taking exercise 22. Too much exe
5、rcise can be for us. A. good B. enough C. bad D. helpful 23. Sports can . A. help people to know each other B. improve friendship between people C. do us nothing but good if we are careful D.

B Many United States companies have made the search for legal protection from import competition into a m
7、ajor line of work. Since 1980, the United States International Trade Commission(ITC) has received about 280 complaints alleging damage from imports that benefit from subsidies(补贴)by foreign governments. Another 340 charge that foreign companies “dumped” their products in the United States at “less t
8、han fair value”. Even when no unfair practices are claimed, the simple claim that an industry has been injured by imports is sufficient grounds to seek relief(救济). Contrary to the general impression, this request for import relief has hurt more companies than it has helped. As corporations begin to
9、function globally, they develop a complicated web of marketing, production, and research relationships. The complexity of these relationships makes it unlikely that a system of import relief laws will meet the strategic needs of all the units under the same parent company. Internationalization incre
10、ases the danger that foreign companies will use import relief laws against the very companies the laws were designed to protect. Suppose a United States-owned company establishes an overseas plant to manufacture a product while its competitor makes the same product in the United States. If the compe
11、titor can prove injury from the importsand that the United States company received a subsidy from a foreign government to build its plant abroadthe United States companys products will be uncompetitive in the United States, since they would be subject to duties. Perhaps the most shameful case occurr
12、ed when the ITC investigated allegations(控诉) that Canadian companies were injuring the United States salt industry by dumping rock salt, used to deice roads. The bizarre aspect of the complaint was that a foreign conglomerate(联合企业) with United States operations was crying for help against a United S
13、tates company with foreign operations. The “United States” company claiming injury was a unit of a Dutch conglomerate, while the “Canadian” companies included a unit of a Chicago firm that was the second-largest domestic producer of rock salt. 25. The passage is chiefly concerned with . A. arguing a
14、gainst the increased internationalization of US corporations B. recommending a uniform method for handling claims of unfair trade practices C. warning that the application of laws affecting trade frequently has unintended consequences D. advocating the use of trade restrictions for “dumped” products
15、 but not for other imports 26. What can be inferred about the minimal basis for a complaint to the ITC? A. A foreign competitor is selling products in the US at less than fair market value. B. A foreign competitor has greatly increased the volume of products shipped to the US. C. The company request
16、ing import relief has been banned from exporting products. D. The company requesting import relief has been injured by the sale of imports in the US. 27. Which of the following is most likely to be true of US trade laws? A. They will eliminate the practice of “dumping” products in the US. B. Those a
17、pplied to international companies will help to gain more profits. C. They will affect US trade with Canada more negatively than trade with other nations. D. Those helping one unit within a parent company wont necessarily help other units. C Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they o
18、ffer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a large building, but usually these buildings are not designed with the comfort of a king in mind. When it comes to structures that are both beautiful and defensive, the European castle is a big success. Castles were originally built in En
19、gland by the Normans in 1066. They built towers and walls to secure the land they had taken. These castles provided the Normans with a quiet and safe place. They also served as bases of operation for attacks. In this way castles served both defensive and offensive roles. Besides, castles served as o
20、ffices for governors. Those that were socially beneath the governor would come to report affairs and express their respect. They would address problems, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities in castles. So castles served as social centers as well. The first castles were made from earth and w
21、ood, and they were likely to suffer from attacks by fire. Then wooden castles were gradually replaced by stone, which greatly increased the strength of these towers and walls. However, attackers could throw flaming objects into castles through the windows or burn the wooden doors. This led to moving
22、 the windows and entrances off of the ground floor and up to the first floor to make them more difficult to access. During the Middle Ages, attacks increased in regularity, so castle defenses were updated. Arrow-slits were added. They were small holes in the castle, which allowed defenders to fire w
23、ithout being hurt. Towers were built from which defenders could provide fire on both sides. The towers were connected to the castle by wooden bridges, so that if one tower fell, the rest of the castle was still easy to defend. A lot of rings of castle walls were constructed, so that even if attacker
24、s went past one wall, they would be caught on a killing ground between inner and outer walls. All of these increased the defense of castles. The end of castles can be attributed to gunpowder. During the 15th century, artillery, a kind of large guns, became powerful enough to break through stone wall
25、s. This greatly made the role of castles less effective. Though castles no longer serve their original purposes, remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year who wish to experience the situations of ancient times. 28. What was the original function of castles according to the passage? A.
26、 They served as tourist attractions. B. They were important social centers. C. They marked religious ceremonies. D. They were built for use in emergencies. 29.
