The UN Security Council was created in 1945. It is made up of 10 rotating (轮值的) members and five permanent members, which have a veto, the power to stop a resolution (决议). Most UN members now consider the organization's structure outdated. But any changes need the agreement of two-thirds of the 191 members, and no veto from any of the five permanent council members.

Last year, Japan, Germany, Brazil and India formed a lobbying (游说) group to get permanent council seats. But North and South Korea have doubts about Japan, Italy opposes Germany for a seat, Pakistan is against India's candidacy (候选资格) and Mexico and Argentina frown on Brazil.

A wave of emotion swept through China last week as millions voiced their opposition to Japan's permanent membership of the United Nations (UN) Security Council. By last Friday over 22 million Chinese had signed an online petition (请愿) against Japan's bid for a permanent seat on the council.

According to major Chinese websites, such as sina.com, more than 170,000 overseas Chinese also signed. This is the first online activity of its kind.

The petition was started by US-based Alliance for Preserving the Truth of the Sino-Japanese War (抗日战争史实维护会). They want Japan to apologize for crimes during World War II. The group also plans to present the petition to the UN this autumn.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said he didn't think the petition shows anti-Japanese feeling. He believed instead it is a request for Japan to take a responsible attitude towards history.

What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?

       A.Function of the UN in world affairs.     B.Members of the UN.

       C.Facts about the UN Security Council.    D.Reform of the UN Security Council.

Which statement is true according to the text?

       A.Four countries, such as Japan, Germany, Brazil and India are applying for joining the UN.

       B.Some countries, such as North and South Korea, Italy, Pakistan, Mexico and Argentina

propose ticking the four countries out of the UN.

       C.If the countries’ bids for permanent membership of the Council are turned down, the

opponent countries will take the place.

       D.The UN Security Council is going to take in new members.

The underlined phrase “frown on” in the third paragraph can be replaced by _____.

       A.agree on         B.disapprove of  

       C.give a firm support to          D.say yes to

What’s the main reason for China’s opposition to Japan’s permanent membership of the

Council?

       A.Japan is unwilling to admit to its crimes against the Chinese in the World War II.

       B.Millions of people in Asia signed a petition against it.

       C.The Chinese people have strong anti-Japanese feeling.

       D.Japan is an irresponsible country that once had a history of invasion.

Boxing is a fist fighting sport between two matched combatants (对手) wearing padded gloves. A boxer’s primary aim is to land as many blows as possible to the head and torso (躯干) of the opponent, using strength and speed to dominate the contest. One of the oldest sports still practiced, boxing dates back to thousands of years ago. Today the sport is popular in many parts of the world and encompasses (包括) both amateur and professional matches.
For most of the 20th century boxing attracted huge fan and media attention in the United States. Some boxing champions became legendary, larger-than-life figures, such as Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, and Muhammad Ali. Criticized to varying degrees throughout its history for its violent nature and high injury rate, boxing has somehow always managed to survive——and even thrive——as a sport.
Modern boxing regulations are based upon the 12 rules set out by British boxing officials in the mid-19th century. These rules became known as the Marquess of Queensberry Rules, named after the 8th Marquess of Queensberry, John Sholto Douglas, who sponsored and published them. In addition to in-the-ring rules, modern boxing also has specific regulations regarding eligibility for the fighters themselves.
The modern rules for professional and amateur boxing differ, but both types of contests are divided into time periods called rounds. In professional boxing, each round lasts three minutes; in amateur boxing, two minutes. A one-minute rest period between rounds is standard. Amateur contests consist of three rounds; professional contests may consist of up to 12 rounds. A bell is usually sounded by a timekeeper to begin and end each round.
A key step in making boxing safer and more respectable was the introduction of gloves, ending brutal bare-knuckle competition. Boxing gloves are heavily padded to soften the impact of the blow and to protect the hands of the boxer. As an added protection, the hands are taped before being placed in the gloves, which are essentially huge mittens. Professional gloves usually weigh between 170 and 226g; amateur gloves average 226 to 340g.
【小题1】Which of the following is true according to the information in the passage?

A.Boxing is a violent sport with high injury rate.
B.People enjoy boxing because of its brutal nature.
C.Only professional players are allowed to attend boxing matches.
D.Boxing is a popular sport with a history of only 200 years.
【小题2】Boxing has always managed to survive as a sport. In the author’s opinion, __________.
A.this is because many people can participate in this popular sport
B.this is because boxing is a sport which can bring good business
C.the reason for this cannot be fully explained
D.this is because there are many legendary boxers
【小题3】Which of the following facts about boxing is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A.The time set for a round.B.The weight of gloves.
C.The size of boxing rings.D.The signal to begin and end each round.
【小题4】The author’s purpose in writing this passage is __________.
A.to give a general introduction to the sport of boxing
B.to advertise a band of boxing-related product
C.to discourage people from enjoying this violent sport
D.to get support for a sport with long tradition
【小题5】Which of the following statements can best describe the sport of boxing as a whole?
A.It is a brutal and violent sport, with little popularity in modern times.
B.It is a traditional sport, with little room for improvement.
C.It is a controversial sport, which nevertheless enjoys great public support.
