        The financial crisis will be the top issue at this year’s World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The five – day meeting starts on Wednesday, January 28. More than two thousand five hundred people from ninety-six countries will discuss ways to solve the crisis.

    The event gathers some of the world's most powerful political and business leaders at a small ski village in the Swiss Alps. Organizers this week announced a program built around the theme: “Shaping the Post-Crisis World."

    But with the world still in crisis , there was news that no famous people from show business will be at the forum this year. Bona, the social activist and lead singer of the Irish rock group U2, usually attends. But he will not be attending this year.

    Organizers expect a record forty-one heads of state or government. They include Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and the prime minister of Kenya, Raila Odinga.

    Among those expected from President Obama's new administration is Lawrence Summers, the director of the National Economic Council. Another is Mister Obama's national security adviser, retired general James Jones.

    Members of the US Congress are also among the guest list, along with former president Clinten, a favorite at Davos. About sixty percent of those attending are business leaders.

    The World Economic Forum will also discuss global warming, investment in low-carbon forms of energy in developing countries and other issues.

    Klaus Schwab is the founder and chairman of the forum. He calls this one of the most important gatherings in its thirty-nine year history. He says the financial crisis should be seen as a wake-up call to change systems and ways of thinking, and to re-establish trust.

    KLAUS SCHWAB: "We never will move out of the crisis if we do not re-establish confidence  which means we have to establish signposts for the future."

    1．What is the main purpose of the World Economic Forum this year?

           A．To wake up people to establish signpost for the future.

           B．To solve the problems of global warning.

           C．To re-establish confidence of the leaders.

           D．To discuss how to solve the crisis.

    2．The underlined word “signpost” in the last paragraph means          .

           A．symbol     B．road  C．goal  D．station

    3．What does Klaus Schwab mean in the second paragraph from the bottom?

           A．The crisis requires us to change.    

           B．We should change the systems of the forum.

           C．The forum has a long history. 

           D．The crisis needs trust.

    The USA, New York —Whales and dolphins are facing increasing threats from climate change, according to a new report published by WWF and the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society（WDCS）.

    The report “Whales in hot water?” draws attention to the growing impacts of climate change on whales. They range from changes in sea temperature and the freshening of the seawater because of the melting of ice and increased rainfalls, to a sea level rise, loss of icy polar habitats and the decline of krill populations in key areas. Krill, a tiny shrimp that is dependent on sea ice, is the main source of food for many of the great whales.

    The speeding up of climate change adds greatly to trouble from other human activities, such as chemical and noise pollution, which kills some 1000 whales every day.

     “Whales and dolphins have an ability to adapt to their changing environment,” said Mark Simmonds, International Director of Science at WDCS. “But the climate is now changing at such a fast pace that it is unclear to what extent whales and dolphins will be able to adjust.”

    Climate change impacts are currently greatest in the Arctic and the Antarctic. According to the report, cetaceans that rely on polar, icy waters for their home and food resources are likely to be greatly affected by the reduction of sea ice cover.

    WDCS and WWF are urging governments to cut global production of CO2 by at least 50 percent by the middle of this century. The latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change showed it was possible to stop global warming if the world’s emissions start to decline before 2015.

    1. From the passage, we can learn that whales mainly feed on ______.

    A. dolphins       B.krill         C. sea horses       D. sharks

    2. Which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word “decline” (in Para 2)?

    A. produce         B. develop       C. fall         D. increase

    3. In what place is climate change greatest?

    A. Two polar areas.                        B. Asia.

    C. The pacific ocean.                      D. Equator.

    4. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

    A. Climate change will lead to the changes in sea temperature.

    B. Climate change will result in the freshening of the sea water.

    C. Climate change will have a bad effect on human activities and whales.

    D. Human beings will forever have no ability to stop global warming
