         Xiangzi - Lucky, in English - is appropriately named. His owner Qiu Hong, a sports marketer,lets the
    dog enjoy two daily walks,a collection of imported American toys, $300 worth of monthly food and
    treats and his own sofa in her high-rise apartment. When Ms. Qiu feels bored, she takes Xiangzi out for a
    long run in her car.
         In a sense, Xiangzi is not just a dog, but a social phenomenon - and, perhaps, a marker of how quickly the Chinese nation is booming through its transformation from poor farmer to first-world citizen.Twenty
    years ago,there were hardly any dogs in Beijing, but now there're 900,000 registered dogs with countless
    thousands of others unlicensed. How this came to be is, in some ways, the story of modern China as well.
    "People used to be focused on improving their own lives, and they weren't really acquainted with raising
    dogs," said Ms. Qiu. "But with the improvement in the economy, people's outlooks (观念) have
    changed." 
         Having a dog can be a way to relieve the stress in people's lives, but mostly Beijing dogs have, as in
    the West, become objects of affection - even devotion - by their owners. It's easy to find dog-treat stores, dog Web sites, dog social networks, dog swimming pools - even, for a time recently, a bring-your-dog
    cinema and a bring-your-dog bar on Beijing's downtown nightclub row.
         The doglike devotion of pet owners here seems to have softened the city government heart. In 1994,
    Beijing officials relaxed their no-dog policy to "severely restrict" dogs. In 2003,it was changed again to
    allow anyone to own a dog, but to limit city dogs to no more than 35 centimeters in height. And nowadays the restriction seems to be loosely carried out.
         As for sti-fried Pekingese (京叭狗) - well, that dog,too, may have seen its day. A formal suggestion
    to ban the eating of dogs has been made by a law professor named Chang Jiwen, who considered himself "not so much a dog lover as a China lover". "With China developing so quickly, more people should know how to treat animals properly," he said in 3 telephone interview.
    1. What's the main idea of the first paragraph?
    A. Xiang Zi is a clever dog.
    B. Xiangzi lives a happy life.
    C. Qiu Hong has a lot of money.
    D. Qiu Hong is very busy.
    2.  Paragraph Four mainly shows that Beijingers_____.
    A. Iive under too much pressure
    B. Love dogs evry much
    C. are good at making money
    D. have modernized their city
    3. Judging from the article,we can know that______.
    A. Pet owners can be as devoted as the dog
    B. there were no dogs in Beijing before 2003
    C. Beijing strictly bans dogs above 35cm high in practice
    D. Chang Jiwen spoke for dog lovers only
    4.Which is NOT mentioned in the article?
    A. China's economical development.
    B. The psychological problems in modern society.
    C. People's attitude to wards animals.
    D .The problems caused by dog keeping.

    　　Good morning. I'm speaking to you today from Beijing. In just two days, I've seen some of the rich history and remarkable changes that are taking place in China, home to nearly one- quarter of the world's population.

    　　China is the oldest civilization on Earth. In Xi'an, on Friday, I saw the old and the new China, from magnificent Terra Cotta Warriors sculpted by artisans 2,000 years before America was founded, to the beginnings of democracy in a nearby village, where residents soon will hold elections.

    　　I've been touched by the warm reception given to me, my family, and the members of Congress travelling with us. Tens of thousands of Chinese families have lined the streets to greet us. For all these people, China is changing. I see cell phones, beepers, new office buildings.

    　　China is no longer the same country it was when president Nixon first came here 26 years ago. Never before have so many Chinese had the opportunity to start businesses, lift their families out of poverty, choose where to live, work, and travel, and enjoy the fruits of their labors.

    　　Today in Beijing I am meeting with China' s leaders to talk about the future of our two countries and a relationship between us that is essential to a peaceful, stable, and prosperous world in the next century. We talked about the United States and China's mutual interests ---- promoting peace in Korea, where 400,000 U.S. soldiers still risk their lives to patrol the Cold Wars last frontier; preventing a nuclear arms race between India and Pakistan; restoring economic stability in Asia; stopping the spread of unclear soldiers chemical, and biological weapons and the misspread of unclear soldiers chemical, and biological weapons and the missiles to deliver them; combating international crime and drug trafficking; preserving the environment; and opening trade.

    　　China is important to our future, with the largest population on Earth, a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council, an economy increasingly connected to our own. Without China, it will be difficult to face the challenges. In dealing with China, we must stay true to a course that is both principled and pragmatic．We must continue to expand our areas of cooperation, even as we deal directly with out differences. With China, we can build a safer, more prosperous future for our children, a world of unlimited possibility in the new century

    　　Thanks for listening.

    阅读理解。
         XI'AN - China's conservation work for the endangered crested ibis (朱鹮) is facing new challenges
    , including an increasing death rate due to inbreeding (同系繁殖), and the conflict between the need to
    expand natural habitats and local communities' economic interests, bird experts have warned.
         The crested ibis, once widespread in Japan, China, Russia and the Korean Peninsula, almost became
    extinct in the first half of the 20th century.
         Before 1981, when seven crested ibis were accidentally found in Yangxian county, in Northwest
    China's Shaanxi province, academics thought the species had been extinct in China for almost 17 years.
         Due to the huge effort put into species protection since 1981, the number of crested ibis in China has
    risen to an estimated 1,617, including 997 in the wild, the State Forestry Administration said at a meeting
    on crested ibis protection in Xi'an on Monday.
         However, although the ibis population exceeds 1,000, the birds are still not free from the threat of
    extinction, said Fang Shengguo, director of the State Conservation Center for Gene Resources of
    Endangered Wildlife at Zhejiang University.
          Ornithologists used inbreeding in the early stages of protection so that numbers of the precious birds
    could increase quickly, but that method had consequences, Fang said.
         "Studies have proved that as a result of inbreeding, crested ibis have the lowest genetic diversity of all
    endangered birds," Fang said.
         "It means a high death rate and more physical defects for hatched chicks."
         The government should collect genetic information from all crested ibis and establish a genetic
    database as soon as possible, then design a scientific mating plan for the species, Fang said.
    So far, about 90 percent of crested ibis live in Shaanxi province, and fewer than 140 ibis live in three zoos
    in other parts of the country, including Beijing Zoo, according to Liu Dongping, an assistant researcher at the National Bird Banding Center of China, which is affiliated to the Chinese Academy of Forestry.
         The bird has lost the ability to migrate, he said, adding that if an unexpected natural disaster occurred
    in Shaanxi province or an infectious disease spread through the area, the ibis population could be greatly
    reduced.
         Experts also warned that the increased population of ibis, whether in the wild or in captivity, requires
    a larger and more varied natural habitat.
         Rampant hunting, the massive loss of habitat caused by deforestation and the overuse of pesticides,
    which killed aquatic (水生的) insects on which the ibis feed, are believed to be the main reasons for the
    sharp reduction in the ibis population before 1981.
         So, in 1983, a State-level natural reserve was set up in Shaanxi province to protect the bird. But the
    struggle for living space between human and animal has never stopped, said Lu Baozhong, deputy
    director of the Shaanxi Crested Ibis Conservation Station.
         "For example, ibis often look for loaches in farmers' rice fields. Sometimes their claws trample the rice
    seedlings. In another case, villagers discovered some land with abundant mineral resources which
    happened to be a habitat for ibis," said Lu, who has devoted 30 years to ibis protection.
         A long-term win-win solution for ibis and local communities needs to be developed, one that would
    provide ecological compensation for local residents, Lu said.
