United States President George W. Bush is expected to issue a directive in the next few weeks. It will give the US Air Force a green light for the development of space weapons, US media reported last week.
This would potentially set off a new global arms race, some experts have warned.
To keep that from happening, last Wednesday the White House explained that it was not considering putting weapons in space. It said it was making a shift in US space policy to allow for protection of satellites.
But some defense analysts and arms control advocates argue that the policy will pave the way for the US to put both defensive and offensive weapons in space.
“No one should be fooled,” said Theresa Hitches, an American weapons expert.
The US is now restricted by a 1996 directive signed by President Bill Clinton. Plans for space weapons were vetoed by the Clinton cabinet. The directive emphasized the peaceful use of space, in agreement with almost undivided global opinion.
The US military has placed importance on space and has sent up numerous satellites for troop communications and to provide intelligence and data to guide bombs to their targets.
The US Air Force wants to develop spacebased weapons that could strike targets anywhere in the world within 90 minutes of receiving the order to open fire.
These new weapons under development cover a wide range. They include hunter killer satellites(杀手卫星)and orbiting weapons(沿轨道运行的武器系统). And they use lasers, radio waves, or even dense metal tubes, known as “Rods from God”, dropped from space to do the damage.
There are many barriers to the setting up of this kind of program, experts say.
First is cost. It is estimated that the budget may be US ＄220 billion to US ＄1 trillion. The technical difficulties of developing reliable space weapons are also a problem. And, the move will draw strong criticism from around the world. Experts worry about setting off a space arms race.
29.The news report mainly deals with._____.
AUS Military Plans BThe Global Arms Race
CA Comparison between Two presidents DPresident George W. Bush and the World Peace
30.Which of the following statements are mentioned in the passage above?
a. President George W. Bush supports space weapon development.
b. The US space weapon project is very costly.
c. The American spacebased weapons to be developed will be able to target any place on the earth.
d. The US military has few difficulties with the development of space weapons.
e. The space weapon program will threaten world peace.
f. Clinton government was poorer than Bush government.
Ab, d, e, f Ba, c, d, f Cb, c, d, e Da, b, c, e
31.After reading this passage, it can be inferred that.
AUS government has little difficulty in developing new weapons
BThe White House is right in explaining that US new space policy aims to protect satellites
CGeorge W. Bush’s directive to be issued will be against global opinions
DPresident George W. Bush and Bill Clinton share a lot in common
32.The author’s attitude towards the upcoming space weapon development is.
Asupportive and optimistic Bcritical and worried
Cexcited and content Dindifferent but a little encouraged
D
After signing an agreement to recognize India as a nuclear power on March 3, US President George W. Bush might be expecting a little Indian love.
The agreement marks a major breakthrough for New Delhi. It allows India to depend on American atomic technology and fuel to meet its increasing energy needs, if American government permits.
Yet many Indians have mixed feelings towards Bush and his country. According to an opinion poll(民意测验)carried out last week by the Indian magazine Outlook, twothirds of the answers say that Bush is a “friend of India”. But 72 percent say that America is “a bully(欺凌弱小者)”, and 59 per cent say that India has “compromised on its foreign policy” to become closer to the US.
“It’s this unilateral(单边的)thing that makes people upset; you want everything your way, and as long as the world toes your line, it’s fine,” says Anand Mahindra, owner of a computer company in New Delhi.
“But you are the ones who used nuclear bombs in Japan. You used chemical weapons in Vietnam. And you’re the ones driving all those gasguzzling(暴食的) cars. You have no moral(道德的) ground to stand on. Who are you to tell us what to do?”
Many factors tie America and India together—democratic(民主的) traditions, economic ties, military(军事的) cooperation, and common views on the war on terrorism. But Bush and his counterpart(对方), Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, admitted that it may take time for the two partners to become close friends.
The key to deepening that relationship will be average Indians. Many of them love American culture, but that doesn’t mean they buy everything America has to sell.
“Indians have always felt close to America on a popular level, to American films, to clothes, to music”, says Dipankar Gupta, an Indian sociologist(社会学家).
“But at the same time, many Indians see America as too domineering(专横的). It’s like a wife who wishes her husband... would give her more room to grow.”
33.India hopes to depend on the agreement for support.
Apolitical Benergy Cmilitary Dfood
34.What does the underlined part “toes your line”(in Paragraph 4)mean?
Aallows you to exist Bhelps you Cobeys you Dangers you
35.The writer refers to Japan and Vietnam to show America is.
Aunmoral Bconsiderate Cpowerless Dfriendly
36.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?
AAn agreement benefits India
BRelationship between US and India
CDifferent opinions on AmericanIndian relationship
DFriend or bully?
37.What Anand Mahindra says in Para 4—5 shows.
Ahis confidence in the AmericanIndian relationship
Bhis complaint about the foreign policy of India
Cthe difficulty of attaching India to America
Dhis anger toward America
