Eleven tigers died in more than three months at a zoo in Shenyang in the Northeast. Who is responsible for the management of the non-state-owned zoo? Why is the annual income of 12-14 million yuan from sales of tickets not enough to provide for the more than 1,000 animals?

In the past 11 years since the zoo was established on the basis of the city's state-owned zoo, the total number of animals has been reduced from more than 1,000 in 61 species to more than 500 in 41 species. More than 100 workers have been on strike for a week asking for their payment. The state-owned zoo has been converted into a non-state one, but that does not mean whoever runs it can make money at the expense of the animals. And neither does it mean that whoever has the controlling share can do whatever he or she wants without being supervised by the local government.

Rumors have it that the zoo intentionally starved the tigers to death to put pressure on the local government for more money. If it is true, the decision-makers should be arrested for the crimes of killing endangered wild animals. Yet none of the leaders at the zoo has said a word. The local government won't be able to plan for the future of this zoo and of the wild animals if the problems with the current management are not resolved.

16.How many species are there in the zoo now?

A) 11. B) 1000. C) 61. D) 41.

A) Eleven tigers died of low temperature. B) The number of animals greatly decreased.

C) The zoo starved some animals to death intentionally. D) More than 100 workers were fired by the local government.

正确答案为 B 你没有作答。 解析:

A) Indifferent. B) Neutral. C) Supportive. D) Critical.

正确答案为 D 你没有作答。 解析:

音频中提到,动物园的私有化并不意味着管理人员可以以牺牲动物为手段谋取利益(that does not mean whoever runs it can make money at the expense of the animals)如果传言属实的话,动物园的决策

者会因杀害濒危野生动物而被逮捕(If it is true, the decision-makers should be arrested for the crimes of killing endangered wild animals),可见作者对动物园领导者的批判态度,所以选D。 Script

For the Boao International Tourism Forum that opened this weekend in Boao, Hainan Island, we hope it isn't full of empty talks about the general development of tourism. What we would like to see is for the forum to be concerned about the island's housing and hotel prices, which will threaten island tourism in the long run.

Immediately after the central government's January announcement to develop the island into an international tourist attraction, housing and hotel prices on the island soared quickly. They have been five times higher than the prices before the announcement. The central government's plan by no means wants to make the island into a scenery attraction for the rich. But 10,000 yuan for one night at a three-star hotel for a family of three is far too high for even white-collar professionals.

The sudden increase has indeed attracted many investors to the island, and both local government and real estate developers must have made a tidy sum in the past months. But traveling to and staying on this island has been a great trouble for many families who enjoy seeing the beautiful landscape on the island. National rush for houses will only push housing prices higher in the near future. If bubbles are popping up in the housing market and vacationing is becoming far too expensive, tourism will take a massive hit. With all this in mind, the healthy and stable development of tourism should be one of the major topics for the forum.

19.What will influence Hainan Island's tourism directly?

A) International tourism forum. B) Housing and hotel prices. C) Government's policies. D) Family structure and income.

正确答案为 B 你没有作答。 解析:

音频中提到,岛上的住房和酒店价格会威胁到岛上的旅游业(the island's housing and hotel prices, which will threaten island tourism in the long run.),可见住房和酒店价格会影响到当地的旅游业,所以选B。

20.What's the central government's plan for Hainan Island?

A) To raise the housing and hotel prices on the island. B) To make the island a scenery attraction for the rich. C) To make the island an international tourist attraction. D) To boom tourism by holding an international forum.

正确答案为 C 你没有作答。

解析:

音频中提到,国家是想将海南岛开发成国际性的旅游景点(develop the island into an international tourist attraction),所以选C。

21.What's the expected topic for the forum?

A) Protection of the island's environment. B) Improvement of the island's infrastructure.

C) Healthy development of the island's tourism industry. D) Healthy development of the island's retail industry.

正确答案为 C 你没有作答。 解析:

音频最后提到,健康稳定的旅游业发展将是论坛的主题之一(the healthy and stable development of tourism should be one of the major topics for the forum),所以选C。 Script

For the first time on the Forbes Billionaires List, the number of Chinese billionaires ranks second in the world, following theUnited Statesand overtakingRussia. Of the 64 billionaires from the Chinese mainland in the 2010 list, 27 are new to the rankings. But while they celebrate their new worldwide fame, we hope they also spend a moment or two considering the role they should play in society.

The image of Chinese billionaires has not been very tasteful these days. Compared to foreign billionaires, many of the rich inChinaare less generous and sympathetic. To some extent, being rich inChinais seen as leading a luxurious and wasteful life. There is also evidence that some of the rich acquired their wealth through illegal means. It is, therefore, our hope that the Chinese who have made their way into the Forbes Billionaires List this year set a good example for the rest of the rich nationwide by shouldering more social responsibilities.

They could win praise if they repay society in one way or another. By donating a portion of their fortune to a charity or spending in the name of a public welfare cause, they could mold a better image of the rich in our society. In fact, the general public, including some wealthy individuals, did respond well to theSichuanearthquake two years ago and made substantial donations for relief efforts.

22.Which country had the third largest number of billionaires in 2010?

A) America. B) China. C) France. D) Russia.

正确答案为 D 你没有作答。
