听力原文: The World Health Organization says extraordinary progress has been made since the global campaign to eradicate polio was launched in 1988.
At that time, it says, 350 thousand children a year were paralyzed from this crippling disease. It says this figure dropped to 35 hundred last year.
W-H-O Coordinator for the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, Bruce Aylward, says last year a record 550 million children under age five were immunized in 82 countries against polio. Although this is an important achievement, he says the job is not yet over.
"The major challenge right now is to stop polio transmission everywhere within the next 24 months so that we can certify the world polio free on time in 2005. The greatest challenge to doing that will be making sure we access every child in the big remaining, heavily endemic or heavily infected polio areas."
The World Health Organization says the polio virus is now present in no more than 20 countries. This is down from 125 in 1988. But, it notes immunizing children in these few remaining countries will not be easy.
W-H-O says major difficulties lie in war-torn countries such as Afghanistan, Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, and Sudan. But, it says problems also exist in polio-endemic countries such as Nigeria, Ethiopia, Pakistan, and Northern India.
W-H-O vaccine export, Bjorn Melgaard says the goal is to be able to eventually stop immunizing children against polio.
"Once we are absolutely certain that the virus is not spreading; that epidemics can no longer occur, that the containment has been achieved, then we can stop vaccination."
Dr. Melgaard adds that the benefits from eradicating polio will be enormous. Besides ending the human suffering, he says countries will save about one-and-haft billion dollars a year in immunization costs.
But the World Health Organization warns against complacency. It says the whole world is at risk of polio until the last polio virus is eradicated. This means everyone will have to remain vigilant and committed to achieving this major public health goal.
Questions:
23.According to WHO coordinator, how soon shall we stop polio transmission everywhere so as to make the world polio free on time in 2005?
24.How many countries did they haste the polio virus in 1988?
25.What are the war-torn countries that WHO says major difficulties lie in?
26.What is the goal of this campaign?
(43)
A.One year.
B.Two years.
C.Three years.
D.Four years.

听力原文:W: I've been reading about a new snack food. It's made from fish. Have you heard anything about it?
M: No. I haven't, but 1 don't like fish very much anyway.
W: Not to worry. Although it's made primarily from fish, it actually doesn't have a fishy taste. In fact, it can be flavored with tomato, cheese, or chocolate for instance
M: How can it not taste fishy? Do you know how this snack food is made?
W: First the fish is minced and cooked and fermented. Then water and starch are added to make a dough.
M: It sounds awful.
W: Actually the dough is very bland al that point, so the flavorings are added to give it some taste.
M: Well, it still sounds a little strange. But I suppose this product will at least be low calorie and high protein. like a health food.
W: Yes, you could call it that. And it has a long shelf life, so it won't spoil quickly. It is also easy to digest and can ha made from types of fish that usually aren't eaten, or from high grade fish by-products,
M: Mm, have you got any samples? I might be willing to try the cheese-flavored variety.
W: No, none of it seems to be available yet. As I understand it, this fish snack food probably won't be in the stores for another couple of years. So you'll have a while to get used to the whole idea.
M: A couple of years, ah? It may just take me that long. but thanks for telling me about it.

Suicide has been a cause of concern in most societies for a long time. The classical Greeks, for example, required people who wanted to kill themselves to get permission from the senate. While this law is not without humor by today&39; s standards, it clearly shows an awareness of the problem in times gone by.
In today&39; s society, suicide is much more prevalent than we want to admit. Why do people try to take their own lives?
The motives for suicide can be categorized into areas such as a failure, wrath(暴怒), the needfor attention, stress, and so on. However, the qualities of a person who wants to take his own life change from person to person, making it difficult to depict(描写)the typical victim. To make the problem even more confusing, people will often camouflage(掩盖)their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that should be viewed as serious.
In the United States, a network of centers has been created to attempt to prevent suicides.People who are bitter, worded, or depressed are encouraged to contact workers at these centers. These workers, often trained volunteers, offer benevolent advice to the callers, trying to help the callers to see that suicide as a solutions to problems is an illusion. The accomplishments of these centers, insofar(到这个程度)as their effectiveness to reduce suicide is concerned, are minimal However, they have helped a lot of people with a wide variety of problems.So, in the somewhat amorphous(难以名状的)area of man helping his fellow man, they are certainly a success.
Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A.The classical Greeks did not know the existence of suicide
B.Suicide has always been prevalent in all parts of the world
C.In today’s society, there are quite a number of people who commit suicide
D.Nowadays suicide is not as common as it was in the past
Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a motive for suicide?A.Insanity
B.Pressure
C.The need for attention
D.Great anger
Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.People who want to take their own lives often disguise their feelings
B.It is difficult to describe what kind of people tend to commit suicide
C.Suicide has been a problem in most societies since ancient times
D.People who commit suicide all share certain characteristics
The word “benevolent” means ()A.relevant
B.kind
C.serious
D.effective
The third paragraph mainly tells us that ()A.a network of centers has been quite effective in reducing suicide
B.a network of centers has been quite successful in reducing suicide
C.people are making efforts to help those who tend to commit suicide and in a way, they are successful
D.in theUnited States, people who want to commit suicide call a network of centers to get help
