Time to Stop Traveling by Air
Twenty-fiveyears ago a young British man called Mark Ellingham decided that he wanted achange of scenery. So he went to Australia, stopping off in many countriesbetween. He also decided to write about the experience and produced a guide forother travelers making similar journeys.
In 1970, Britishairports were used by 32 million people. In 2004，the figure was 216 million. In 2030，according to governmentforecasts, it will be around 500 million. It’s a growth driven by the emergenceof low cost airlines, offering access to all parts of the world for less than ￡100.
This has made ahuge contribution to global warming. One return flight from Britain to the USproduces the same carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) as a year’s motoring (驾车). A return flight to Australia equals the emissions (排放）of three average cars for ayear. And the pollution is released at a height where its effect on climatechange is more than double that on the ground.
Mark Ellinghambuilt his business on helping people travel. Now he wants to help peoplestop—at least by air.
He is callingfor a ￡ 100 green tax on all flights to Europe and Africa, and ￡ 250 on flightsto the rest of the world. He also wants investment to create a low-carboneconomy, as well as a halt to airport expansion.
Mark Ellingham’scommitment is important because his readers aren’t just the sort of young andadventurous people who would happily jump on a plane to spend a weekendexploring a foreign culture. They are also the sort of people who say they careabout the environment. It’s a debate that splits people down the middle.
The touristindustry has responded by offering offsetting (补偿) schemes. A small increase in the price of aticket is used to plant trees.
But critics saythat it is not enough to just be carbon neutral. We should be actively cuttingback on putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. And for the averageperson, making a plane journey will be his or her largest contribution toglobal warming. It may be good to repair the damage we do. But surely it isbetter not to do the damage in the first place.
16. Mark Ellingham spent quite a few daysin China on his way to Australia 25 years ago.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
17.Traveling from Britain to any other part of the world may cost you less than ￡100.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
18. A round trip flight from Britain to Australia produces the sameamount of carbon dioxide as three average cars do in a year.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
20. Mark Ellingham’s readers are notinterested in environmental protection.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
21. Critics argue that the best way toprotect our environment is not to do any damage to it.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
22. Mark Ellingham will collaborate withthe critics in his efforts to fight global warming.
A. Right
B. Wrong
C. Notmentioned
【答案与解析】
16.C 定位根据题干定位至第一段。
点睛文章第一段第二句提到“So he went to Australia, stopping off inmany countries between.，但并未提到他在去澳大利亚的途中在中国待了几天，故选C项。
17.A 定位根据题干定位至第二段。
点睛文章第二段第一句话提到英国机场使用人数激增，接着第二句话解释原因“It’s a growthdriven by the emergence of low cost airlines, offering access to all parts ofthe world for less than ￡100.”，由此可知，从英国飞往世界其他任何地方的花费都不超过100英镑，故答案为A项。
18.B 定位根据题干定位至第三段。
点睛文章第三段第三句提到“A return flight to Australia equals theemissions (排放) ofthree average cars for a year.”，指的是从英国到澳大利亚的返程航班，而不是往返航班，因此题干表示错误，故选B项。
19.B 定位根据题干定位至第四段。
点睛根据文章第四段“Mark Ellingham built his business onhelping people travel. Now he wants to help people stop—at least by air.”可知，Mark Ellingham以前致力于帮助人们旅行，现在他想要帮助人们停止旅行，至少是停止乘坐飞机。该说法与题干相矛盾，故答案为B项。
20.B 定位根据关键词Mark Ellingham’s readers定位至倒数第三段。
点睛第三段中提到Mark Ellingham的读者“… are also the sort of people who say they careabout the environment.”，由此可知，他的读者是关心环境的，故题干表示错误，答案为B项。
21.A 定位根据关键词critics定位至文章最后一段。
点睛最后一段中评论家认为“We should be actively cutting back onputting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere”，也就是我们应该积极地减少温室气体的排放，也就是题干中提到的保护环境最好的方法是不要破坏环境，故选A项。
22.C 点睛最后文章并没有提到Mark Ellingham将与评论家合作，一同努力对抗全球变暖，故选C项。
【全文翻译】
是时候该停止乘飞机旅行
25年前一个叫Mark Ellingham的英国人决定想要换个地方。于是，他去了澳大利亚，期间在很多国家停留。他还决定将自己的经验写下来，为其他有着类似行程的旅行者提供指南。
1970年，英国机场的客流量达到0.32亿。在2004年，这一数据达到2.16亿。根据政府的预测，到2030年，将会达到5亿。这一增长是因为航行费用的降低，从英国到世界上其他任何地区的花费都不唱过100英镑。
这大大加剧了全球变暖。从英国到美国的返程航行所产生的二氧化碳相当于驾车一年的排放量。从英国到澳大利亚返程航行的排放量相当于三辆普通汽车一年的排放量。高空中排放的污染物对气候的影响是地面排放的两倍。
Mark Ellingham通过帮助人们旅行成立了自己的公司。现在他想帮助人们停止旅行——至少是停止乘坐飞机。
他正呼吁对于欧洲飞非洲的所有航班征收100英镑的环保税。对于飞往世界其他地区的航班征收200英镑的税。他还想投资形成低碳经济，停止机场扩建。
Mark Ellingham的承诺非常重要，因为他的读者不只是那些欢快地跳上飞机花费一周研究外国文化爱冒险的年轻人。他们也是自称关心环境的一类人。这一争论将人们划分开来。
作为回应，旅游行业提出了补偿方案。机票价格上涨的部分用于植树。
但评论家认为只进行碳中和是不够的。我们应该积极地减少向大气中排放温室气体。对于普通人来讲，乘坐飞机旅行会极大地加剧全球变暖。弥补我们造成的损害是好的，但可以肯定的是我们最好是首先不要破坏环境。
第3部分：概括大意与完成句子(第23?30题，每题1分，共8分）
下面的短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第1~4段每段选择1个最佳标题；(2)第27—30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。
Feed the World with Potatoes
1. As foodprices continue to rise rapidly, there is growing concern about the effect itwill have among the world’s poor.
2. Increasingly,experts are looking to the potato as a possible low-cost solution to feedingthe hungry. To emphasize the issue, the United Nations has called the potato “ahidden treasure” and named 2008 the International Year of the Potato. Here’show potatoes could end the food crisis.
3. The potatomatures more quickly, on less land and in harsher climate than most other majorcrops. Up to 85 percent of the plant is eatable, compared with around 50percent of cereals. Its broad adaptability to a wide variety of farming systemsis also note worthy.
4. Potatoes arean excellent source of complex carbohydrates, which release their energyslowly, and have only 5 percent of wheat’s fat content. They contain only aquarter of the calories of bread and, according to the Potato Center, when boiled, potatoes have more protein and nearly twice the calcium as corn.Additionally, they are good source of vitamin C, iron, potassium (钾) and zinc (锌).
5. The food andAgriculture Organization recently surveyed food price inflation in over 70 ofthe poor countries. Cereal price inflation was much higher and far morewidespread than for potatoes. A significant factor behind the potato’s affordabilityis the fact that unlike other agriculture products, the potato is not yet aglobal commodity, and has therefore not attracted speculative investors. Rawpotatoes are heavy and can rot during transmit, so global trade has been slowto take off. Also, potatoes are susceptible (易受影响的) to infection with disease, hindering (阻碍) export. According toanalysts’ estimates, less than 5 percent of potatoes are tradedinternationally, with prices driven primarily by local tastes instead ofinternational demand.
23.Paragraph 2 _____
24.Paragraph 3 _____
25.Paragraph 4 _____
26.Paragraph 5 _____
| A. Potatoes’ Lower Inflation B. Major Food Crops C. Healthy Food D. Higher Output E. Growing Importance of Potatoes F. High Price |
27.The potato is cheap because _____
28. The whole world is concerned about foodprices because _____
29.Many people eat potatoes because _____
30. The potato is not yet a globalcommodity because _____
| A. it has remained a controversial issue B. they are rising rapidly C. they are very nourishing D. nobody eats it E. its yield is high F. raw potatoes can decay easily during transit |
【答案与解析】
23.E 第二段主要强调土豆可能是解决食物危机的一个低成本的办法。联合国甚至把2008年称为国际土豆年。E项“土豆的重要性增加”符合本题主题，因此选E项。
24.D 第三段介绍了土豆作物的优点，成熟快，并且可食用率高，还能够适应不同的耕作系统，也就是说土豆的产出量好，因此D项“更高的产出”符合本段主题，所以选D项。
25.C 第四段继续介绍土豆的优点，通过与其他食物的对比可以看出，土豆的营养成分高。C项“健康食物”是对本段的概括，因此本题选C项。
26.A 第五段从价格方面介绍了土豆的优势，由于不适合国际贸易，土豆价格的通胀率低，A项“土豆有更低的通胀率”与本段主题相符，因此选A项。
27.E 点睛本题要求填入土豆价格低的原因。文章第二段第一句提到了土豆可能是低成本的解决食物危机的方法。接着文章第三段讲到了土豆的产量高。分析所有选项，只有E项符合题意，其他选项均不符合，因此选E项。
28.B 点睛文章第一段第一句就提到，“As food prices continue to rise rapidly, there is growing concernabout…”，也就是说目前的食品价格在持续不断地上升。B项符合题意，因此选B项。
29.C 点睛本题要求填入人们吃土豆的原因。文章第四段主要介绍了土豆有利健康的各种营养成分。分析所有选项，只有C项符合题意，其他选项均不合适，因此本题选C项。
30.F 定位根据a global commodity定位到第五段。
点睛文章第五段第四句中的“Raw potatoes are heavy and can rotduring transmit, so global trade has been slow to take off”可知，土豆国际贸易发展缓慢的原因在于土豆运输过程中的不便，生土豆不仅沉，而且容易坏。由此可知，本题选F项。
【全文翻译】
土豆喂养世界
1．随着食品价格的持续快速增长，人们越来越担心其对世界贫困人口造成的影响。
2．越来越多地，专家们指望土豆可能作为一种低成本的解决方案来喂养那些饥饿的人口。为了强调这个议题，联合国已将土豆称为“一个隐藏的宝藏”，并将2008年命名为国际土豆年。下面是土豆如何用来解决食物危机。
3．比起其他作物，土豆占用更少的土地，能适应更加恶劣的气候，并且成熟更快。土豆作物中可食用的部分高达85%，而谷物类作物只有大约50%。值得注意的是，它能广泛适应各种各样的耕作系统。
4．土豆是复杂的碳水化合物的一种很好的来源，并且能量释放缓慢，只有小麦脂肪含量的5%。土豆只含面包卡路里的四分之一，根据土豆中心，煮熟的土豆含有更多的蛋白质，钙含量接近玉米的两倍。此外，土豆是很好的维生素C、铁、钾和锌的来源。
5．食品和农业组织最近调查了超过70个贫困国家的食品价格上涨的情况。谷物价格的通胀率远高于土豆价格，而且通胀率波及的范围更广。土豆购买力背后一个重要的因素在于，不像其他农产品，土豆还不是全球性的商品，因此，还没有吸引投机的投资者。运输时生土豆沉、容易坏，所以全球贸易发展缓慢。同时，土豆容易受疾病感染的影响，所以出口受到阻碍。根据分析估计，在国际上进行交易的土豆不到5%，价格主要是由当地的口味决定，而不是国际需求。
第4部分：阅读理解(第31~45题，每题3分，共45分）
下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。
第一篇 Ethnic Tensions in Belgium
Belgium hasgiven the world Audrey Hepburn Rene Magritte (surrealist artist), the saxophone(萨克斯管) anddeep-fried potato chips that are somehow called French.
But the storybehind this flat, twice-Beijing-size country is of a bad marriage between twonationalities living together that cannot standeach other. With no new government, more than a hundred days after a generalelection, rumors run wild that the country is about to disappear.
“We are twodifferent nations, an artificial state. With nothing in common except a king,chocolate and beer.” said Filp Dewinter, the leader of the Flemish Bloc, theextreme-right Flemish party.
Radical Flemishseparatists like Mr Dewinter want to divide the country horizontally alongethnic and economic lines: to the north. Flanders—where Dutch (known locally asFlemish) is spoken and money is increasingly made; to the south.French-speaking Wallonla—where today old factories dominate the landscape.
The area ofpresent-day Belgium passed to the French in the 18th century. Following thedefeat of Napoleon in 1815, Belgium was given to the kingdom of the Netherlands, from which it gained independence as a separate kingdom in 1830.
Since then, ithas struggled for cohesion (结合). Anyone who has spoken French in a Flemish city quickly gets asense of the mutual hostility that is part of daily life there.
But there arereasons Belgium is likely to stay together, at least in the short term.
The economies ofthe two regions are tightly linked, and separation would be a financialnightmare.
But there isalso deep resentment in Flanders that its much healthier economy must subsidize(补贴) the south,where unemployment is double that of the north. French speakers in the south,meanwhile, favor the status quo (现状).
Belgium has made it through previous threats of division. Although somepolitical analysts believe this one is different, there is no panic just now.
“We must notworry too much.” said Baudouln Bruggeman, a 55-year-old school-teacher. “Belgium has survived on compromise since 1930. You have to remember that this is Magritte'scountry, the country of surrealism. Anything can happen.”
31.Who was Magritte?
A. A Frenchnovelist.
B. Asaxophonist.
C. Aseparatist.
D. A surrealistartist.
32. When did Belgium become an independentkingdom?
A. in 1800.
B. in 1830.
C. in 1815.
D. in 1930.
33.Which statement about Belgium is NOT true?
A. it is twiceas big as Beijing.
B. it has twomajor ethnic groups.
C. it has gonethrough quite a few threats of division.
D. it has nogovernment.
34. What does the passage mainly talkabout?
A. Surrealistartists.
B. Belgium’seconomy.
C. Culturalclashes in Belgium.
D. Music in Belgium.
35. The word “stand” in Paragraph 2 means_____.
A. handle
B. meet
C. combine
D. bear

32.B 定位根据关键词anindependent kingdom定位至第五段。
点睛文章第五段最后一句提到“... it gained independence as a separatekingdom in 1830”，即自从1830年起，比利时获得独立，成为一个独立王国，故答案为B项。
| 33. Which statement about Belgium is NOT true? | 33. 下列关于比利时的表述哪一项不正确？ | | A. It is twice as big as Beijing. B. It has two major ethnic groups. C. It has gone through quite a few threats of division. D. It has no government. | A. 它是北京的两倍大。 B. 它有两大主要的民族。 C. 它经历了几次分裂的威胁。 D. 它没有政府。 |
33.D 点睛文章第二段第二句提到“With no new government, more than a hundred days after a generalelection…”，由此可知，比利时并不是没有政府，只是没有新的政府，故D项表示正确。
避错根据文章第二段第一句“twice-Beijing-size country is of a badmarriage between two nationalities living together that cannot stand eachother”可知，比利时是北京的两倍大，而且有两大主要的民族，故A、B项正确。文章倒数第二段第一句话提到“Belgium hasmade it through previous threats of division.”，因此比利时经历了几次分裂的威胁，故C项正确。
| 34. What does this passage mainly talk about? | 34. 这篇文章主要讲的是什么？ | | A. Surrealist artist. B. Belgium’s economy. C. Cultural clashes in Belgium. D. Music in Belgium. | A. 超现实主义艺术家。 B. 比利时经济。 C. 比利时的文化冲突 D. 比利时的音乐。 |
34.C 点睛文章主要讲述了比利时不同文化下的不同民族之间冲突，并差点导致国家放分离，由此可知该文章主要讲的是比利时的文化冲突，故答案为C项。

35.D 定位根据题干定位至第二段。
点睛第二段中提到“But the story behind this flat,twice-Beijing-size country is of a bad marriage between two nationalitiesliving together that cannot stand each other.”，根据a bad marriage可知，这两个民族虽然居住在一起，但并不能忍受对方。stand“忍受”，故答案为D项。
【全文翻译】
比利时民族关系紧张
比利时在世界上拥有奥黛丽·赫本、勒内·马格利特（一位超现实主义艺术家）、萨克斯管和不知怎的被称作法式油炸薯片的东西。
在这个地势平坦，面积是北京的两倍的国家背后是两个民族糟糕的结合。它们生活在一起，但都无法忍受对方。大选过去100多天了，仍然没有成立新的政府，谣言四起，认为这个国家将要消失。
“我们是两个不同的民族组成的一个不真实的国家。这两个民族除了有一个共同的国王、巧克力和啤酒，别的再无共同点。”Filp Dewinter说道。他是极右的佛兰芒党的领袖，即佛兰芒集团党的领袖。
激进的佛兰芒分裂主义分子如Mr. Dewinter想要沿着民族和经济线横向地切分这个国家。北边是佛兰德斯，讲荷兰语（当地认为是佛兰芒语），财富不断增长。南边是讲法语的瓦隆尼亚地区，也就是现在以就工厂为主导的地区。
18世纪，现在比利时的区域交由法国控制。1815年拿破仑战败，比利时开始由荷兰王国掌管。1930年它摆脱荷兰王国的控制，赢得独立，成为一个独立的王国。
从那以后，它就开始进行国家统一的斗争。在佛兰芒城市任何讲法语的人都会引起相互之间的敌意，这已经成为那里日常生活的一部分。
但比利时有理由有可能实现统一，至少在短期内能够做到。
这两个地区的经济紧密相连，它们的分裂将会是一场金融噩梦。
但佛兰德斯人怀有深深的怨恨之情，因为他们经济富裕必须要补贴南部地区。南部地区的失业人口是北部的两倍。与此同时，南部讲法语的人却安于现状。
比利时已经克服了之前的几次分裂危机。尽管一些政治分析家相信这次与以往不同，眼下却没有恐慌发生。
“我们不必过度担忧，”55岁的教师Baudouln Bruggeman说，“1930年以来，比利时在妥协中获得生存。你要记住，这是马格利特的国家，这是一个超现实主义的国家。一切都有可能发生。”
第二篇 Electric Backpack
Backpacks areconvenient. They can hold your books, your lunch, and a change of clothes, leavingyour hands free to do other things. Someday, if you don’t mind carrying a heavyload, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phonerunning, and maybe even light your way home.
Lawrence C. Romeand his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and theMarine Biological Laboratory in WoodsHole, Mass., have invented a backpack thatmakes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In militaryactions, search-and-rescue operations, and scientific field studies, peoplerely increasingly on cellphones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers,night-vision goggles, and other battery powered devices to get around and dotheir work. The backpacks electricity-generating feature could dramatically reducethe amount of a wearer’ s load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome andhis colleagues in the Sept. Science.
The backpackselectricity-creating powers depend on springsused to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearer’s back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gearmechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of anelectrical generator, producing up to 7. 4 watts.
Unexpectedly,tests showed that wearers of the new backpack alter their gaits in response tothe pack’s oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably and withless effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprisingadvantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and non-electric versionsof the backpack.

发电背包
背包很方便，能装书本、午餐、换洗的衣服，可以解放你的手去做其他事情。将来，如果你不介意背着很重的行李，背包还可能为mp3和手机充电，甚至可能在回家的路上为你照明。
Lawrence C. Rome和他来自费城宾夕法尼亚大学及马塞诸塞州伍兹霍尔海洋生物实验室的同事们发明了一种背包，其利用携带者走路产生的能量发电。在各种军事行动、搜救行动以及科学领域研究中，人们越来越多地依靠手机、全球定位系统接收终端、夜视镜以及其他电池供电设备来展开工作。Lawrence C. Rome以及他的同事们在九月份的《科学》杂志上说道，背包发电的特征，因为省去了电池的携带，现在可以显著地减轻背包的负重。
背包发电的能量依靠的是悬挂布包的铁架上的弹簧。铁架负在使用者的后背，当人行走时，整个背包上下晃动。一个齿轮机构将背包的垂直运动转化为电机的旋转运动，产生高达7.4瓦的电。
测试意外地发现，这种新型背包的使用者因背包的晃动会调整自己的步伐，这样一来，比起普遍的背包，他们负重时更舒服、更省力。鉴于这一巨大的优势，Rome计划把这种背包商业化，既有发电版，也有不发电版的。
这种背包尤其适用于士兵、科学研究者、登山者和紧急救护人员等需要携带沉重背包的典型人群。而对于我们其他人，发电背包能让我们在散步的同时玩视频游戏、看电视和听音乐。发电背包还未上市，不过将来如果你最终拥有了一款，过马路的时候一定要记得看道。
第三篇 Covering the Cost All by Himself
University life is in noway cheap in Canada. It costs Peter Kemp, a computer science major at theBritish Columbia Institute of Technology in Vancouver, C$18,000 a year.
Amazingly, the21-year-old is covering the cost by himself.
For the past threeyears, Kemp has done a range of part-time jobs to pay for his tuition andliving expenses. Last semester alone, he worked five jobs for 32-40 hours aweek. Life is busy, but Kemp enjoys it.
“Doing part-time jobsgives me economic independence,” said Kemp, who will begin his senior year thisfall. “Having economic independence gives me the ability to take control of mylife and make my own decisions,” said Kemp. “It has also helped me understandthe value of money. Among Kemp’s five jobs last semester, two were on campus.For one, he helped maintain the university’s computer labs. For the other, heworked at the IT service desk to help students and teachers solve theircomputer problems. He also worked for a small company that develops GPSsystems. This job paid him well at C$27 an hours.
“These jobs made me putwhat I’ve learned in university to practical use,” Kemp said. “I accomplishedcreative and imaginative tasks by applying my abilities to the work. ”
Good time managementskills help Kemp balance work and study. He’s a top student in his class. Andhe will be the student association chairman for his department beginning nextsemester. It’s a position that he has desired for a long time. “It will give methe opportunity to be the voice for my fellow students and make a difference,”says Kemp.
“I believe one of thekey secrets to juggling(应付)everything is to avoid putting offtasks. This can leave you stressed and reduce the quality of your work andhealth,” he said.
“I often make a list ofthe things I need to do each day and rank them by their importance. The list helpsme decide what task I should do first and when I should complete it. Rememberto ask for help when you think you can’t finish something on time, or can’ tfinish it by yourself. ”

【全文翻译】
靠自己支付所有费用
在加拿大上大学绝不会便宜。在温哥华英属哥伦比亚理工学院主修计算机科学，Peter Kemp每年就得花费1.8万加币。
令人惊讶的是，他是靠自己支付费用。
在过去的三年中，Kemp做了一系列的兼职工作来支付他的学费和生活费。仅上学期，他每周工作32—40个小时，做5份工作。生活是忙碌的，但他很享受。
“做兼职工作让我经济独立，”Kemp说。这个秋天他将开始高年级课程。“经济上的独立让我有能力控制我的生活，并且能够自己做决定，”Kemp说道，“这也帮助我了解了金钱的价值。在Kemp上学期所做的5份工作中，两份工作是在校园里。一个是帮助维护大学的计算机实验室。另一个是在IT服务台工作，帮助学生和老师解决他们的电脑问题。他还为一家小型公司开发全球定位系统。这项工作不错，付给他27加币一小时。
“这些工作让我把我在大学所学到的运用到实际中去，”Kemp说，“我把我的能力运用到工作中，并且完成了创造性和富有想象力的任务。”
良好的时间管理技能帮助Kemp来平衡学习和工作。他是班上最优秀的学生。他将于下学期开始，担任系里面的学生会主席。这是他长期渴望的一个职位。“这将给我机会为同学们发言，并有所作为，”坎普说。
他说，“我相信应付一切的关键秘密之一是避免拖延任务。拖延会让你感到压力，降低工作质量，损害健康。”
“我经常把我每天需要做的事情列一个清单，然后把它们按重要性排序。这个列表可以帮助我决定首先要做的任务以及我应该什么时候完成它。当你认为你不能按时完成某事或者不能一个人完成某事时，记得寻求帮助。”

【全文翻译】
美国签订了全球烟草协议
美国朝着批准一项全球性烟草协议迈出了第一步。该协议有望在世界范围内控制使用烟草所产生的致命性影响。卫生和人类服务部部长Tommy Thompson本周在联合国签署了烟草控制框架性协议(FCTC)。在美国能够实施其条款之前还必须要参议院批准这个协议。
FCTC是由世界卫生组织制定的，并且是由世界卫生大会的成员们去年批准的，其中包括美国。批准该协议的国家将被要求制定严格的烟草控制政策。
例如，在那些国家出售的香烟将必须在每包烟正反面至少30％的地方注明吸烟有害健康的警告。这个协议呼吁对烟草收取更多的税、限制在公共场所吸烟和进一步推动禁止烟草的计划。它还要求禁止烟草广告，但是对像美国这样的国家有例外，这些国家的宪法禁止这么公开的禁令。
这个协议的影响可能是巨大的。世界卫生组织估计世界上每年将近500万人因为吸烟而死亡。仅在美国，每年大约有44万人死于与烟草相关的疾病；美国所有的癌症中约有1／3是因为吸烟导致的。如果目前的趋势持续下去，世界卫生组织估计，到2025年烟草将每年夺去1000万人的生命。
这个协议必须被至少40个国家批准才能生效。到目前为止，109个国家已经签订了这个协议，其中12个国家已经批准了它。

美丽冻人
在北京，人们冬天都穿得很厚来抵御寒冷，然而相比之下在美国，人们穿得很少，部分原因是汽车是主要的交通工具，它可以把他们直接送到公司，而公司又有暖气。美国人的饮食中热量很高，因而他们身体能快速地产生热量。
轻便的衣服给人们提供了时尚的机会。许多耶鲁女孩甚至在外部气温为10摄氏度的天气下穿短裙。其中一些至少还穿着靴子、裤袜和暖腿套。然而有些真的是为了漂亮而牺牲健康。她们没有任何东西来遮盖双腿，抵抗冷风，脚上也没有穿袜子，只穿了一条超短裙和一双细高跟鞋。
通常来讲，那些追求时尚的人都是很瘦的，几乎没有多少脂肪。仅看她们的体质，与正常人相比，在寒冷的天气里，她们的御寒能力就已经处于劣势。每当我经过这些女孩的时候，我总是在怀疑，她们怎么能不被冻得瑟瑟发抖，而且还面带微笑，似乎春天已经到来。
男孩也是如此。可以说女孩是为了美而牺牲健康，但男孩为什么穿这么少呢?好像并不是他们穿得少了，就突然变得更好看了。确切来讲，当冬天最冷的时候，他们仅仅穿着花哨的短裤和洗澡用的拖鞋时并不显得更时尚，也不讨人喜欢。
当然，如何着装是人们的自由。我只是觉得惊讶，在康涅狄格州冬夏温度相差如此大的情况下，他们仍然看上去像是二月中旬在海滩上聚会。
