A group of local lawmakers have also joined forces with the Anthony Nolan blood cancer charity to encourage people to join its stem cell register.21.What happened after Alice Pyne wrote her“Bucket List”?AThe media called on people to help her.

Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its presentday importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of the important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.25. Which of the following statements is NOT true?ASome 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.BThere are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.CIt is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English. DPeople learn English for a variety of reasons.26. According to the passage, what is the main reason for the widespread use of English?AIt was popular during Shakespeares time.BIt is used in former British colonies.CIt serves the needs of its native speakers.DIt is a world language that is used for international communication.27. What forms an adequate working knowledge of English?AThe ability to read a newspaper.BIt is difficult to judge because it differs for each situation.CBeing a multilingual.DBeing a native speaker.28. What type of developing countries would be most likely to use English?AThose geographically close to the United States.BThose interested in the culture of the United States.CFormer colonies of Great Britain.DCountries where international conferences are held.CMany people have never heard of Mesothelioma and are unaware of its symptoms. Although considered a rare form of cancer, each year the number of cases grows. With the prevalence(流行)of this disease on the rise, it is critical to understand why and how Mesothelioma develops and what courses of action can be taken in the event of diagnosis. The following is a list of frequently asked questions and answers that will provide you with some information on Mesothelioma, and the legal issues surrounding it.What is Mesothelioma?Mesothelioma is the term used to describe a cancerous tumor found in the mesothelial cells of an organ. The organs where this form of cancer is most commonly found are the lungs, heart and abdominal organs. Pleural Mesothelioma is cancer of the lung lining(组织膜)and is the most common form of Mesothelioma.What causes Mesothelioma?Mesothelioma is almost always caused by exposure to asbestos(石棉). Asbestos is often found in building materials used before the mid 1970s. In addition, materials such as pipes, boiler insulation, floor, ceiling and roof tiles may contain asbestos.How much asbestos exposure will cause Mesothelioma?Generally, the probability of developing this form of cancer is in accordance with the length of time you are exposed to asbestos. Also, your health is at risk if your exposure to asbestos is intense. It should be noted that Mesothelioma has a latency(潜伏)period of 20 to 50 years. This means that you may develop the disease long after your exposure to asbestos. On average, people tend to develop Mesothelioma somewhere between 35 and 40 years after exposure.How quickly does Mesothelioma progress?The onset of Mesothelioma is quite slow. Patients will begin to experience symptoms such as lower back pain and chest pain. These symptoms may also be accompanied by weight loss, fever and difficulty breathing. Unfortunately, once Mesothelioma develops, it quickly becomes aggressive and treatment must be sought immediately.Can Mesothelioma be treated?Doctors are able to use several traditional methods of cancer treatment for Mesothelioma, including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Like all forms of cancer, detecting the disease at the earliest stage possible greatly increases the patients chances for survival. If you have worked in an industry such as construction or suspect that you may have been exposed to asbestos, be alert for symptoms and contact your doctor immediately.What legal courses of action can be taken?Anyone suffering from Mesothelioma is entitled to compensation from asbestos manufacturers. Additionally, if you are the spouse or child of someone who has died from Mesothelioma, you are entitled to file a claim and seek compensation.29. The following are the symptoms of Mesothelioma EXCEPT _.Afrequent headache Blower back pain Cchest pain Ddifficult breathing30.We can learn from the text that _.AAsbestos is to blame for Mesothelioma. BEven if a person is exposed to asbestos for a while, he will die soon. CAll the employees can ask for compensation from asbestos manufacturers. DMesothelioma is a cancer familiar to many people. 31.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?ATerrible Mesothelioma BMesothelioma is around us CFrequently Asked Questions About Mesothelioma DMesothelioma in on the rise 32.If you work in an industry exposed to asbestos, you should _.Agive up the job immediately Bask for a rise from your boss Cfile a claim and seek compensation Dgo to hospital and have your body examinedDDurban Canada Monday became the first country to pull out of the historic Kyoto Protocol (京都议定书), inescapably scarring the global anticlimate change efforts. The Kyoto Protocol, which set different duties for all countries to cut emissions (排放), states that different countries should reduce their collective greenhouse emissions accordingly. However, the United States refused to sign the protocol in 2001, and is the only developed country that has not agreed to sign it. The move has cast a shadow over the global community, and has made some other developed nations hesitate to cut their emissions. To add fuel to the fire, Canada, became the first to call it quits, with the deadline of the first commitment period (20082012) approaching. The biggest concern at this moment is whether other developed countries would follow suit. Over the past four years, a drama has unfolded among developed countries over the emissions cuts and offering support to their developing partners. The Umbrella Group, consisting of Japan, Canada, Australia, the United States and other developed countries, hesitated and even backed away from their positions under certain excuses. The first one quoted by Canadian Environment Minister Peter Kent is that emission cuts damage the economy. Still another is requiring China and India to have the same duty of cutting emissions as developed countries. Actually, if emissions in developed countries could fall to the levels in developing countries, it would greatly help the fight against global climate change. In sum, any irresponsible action, in the anticlimate change campaign should be a cause for blame. It is widely hoped that the United States and Canada will see reason and join the rest of the world community in supporting the Kyoto Protocol.33Which of the following serves as the best title of the passage?ACanada Decides to Quit the Kyot
