The first is the success of antivivisection campaigners in lampooning animal research as outdated, intentionally cruel, "bad" science, which achieves nothing. All drugs and procedures developed with the help of animal tests are said to be dangerous. The occasional failure of animal testing to identify a dangerous drug is developed as an argument for abandoning safety tests involving animals altogether--with no mention of the terrible human suffering that this would cause. They say that "alternative" methods already exist for all animal experiments, but the fact is that the law specifically forbids animal use if there is any alternative. The second reason is that scientists and doctors have failed to oppose such misrepresentation. In the early 1990s, animal rights campaigning in the US was met with much more forthright defense, not only by the major scientific societies, funding agencies and medical organizations, but also by the US government. To be positive, there are many encouraging features of the New Scientist poll. Interestingly, the public seems to employ the same kind of utilitarian philosophy that underpins the law in Britain--weighing potential benefits against the species involved (thus, monkeys are more "valuable" than mice) and the likelihood of suffering. Clearly, people in Britain do not recognize the essential link between animal research and testing and the medical treatments that they receive. Only 18 percent of those who had taken (or had a close family member who had taken a drug prescribed for a serious illness realized that the drug had been tested on animals, as all drugs are. Obviously, a large majority of those surveyed believe that they can happily benefit from medical treatment without taking advantage of animal research. No wonder so many people oppose it when asked the straight yes/no question. The views of the public must be respected. But this poll tells us that, while they are open to persuasion, their reaction is based on misunderstanding. The responsibility for providing honest evidence for the public lies not just with those who use animals in their research, but with other scientists who depend on that work. It lies with the doctors who benefit from animal research, with the pharmaceuticals and biotech industries, and the medical charities and funding age, les whose work would be crippled without it. But most of all, responsibility rests with government, which should cultivate serious and transparent debate between those of different opinion, and provide the public--especially young people--with the honest evidence they need and deserve. In the first sentence of Paragraph 3, "such misrepresentation" refers to ______. A．the idea that other methods can be substituted for animal research B．the claim that animal experiment is intentionally cruel C．the belief that all drugs developed with animal tests are dangerous D．the fact that scientists and medical organizations support animal experimentation

But there was a time when Les Angeles was nothing more than a tiny Indian village. The Spanish expedition searching for Monterey Bay camped there the night of August 1,1769. Twelve years later, other Spaniards started a settlement at the village, which remained unchanged for decades. Yankee sea traders used the settlement as a port, and the California gold rush brought some new economic life to the village, but the town remained quite small. It was not until the completion of the transcontinental railroads in 1869, and the discovery of oil in the 1890s, that the population began to grow. Later, during the two world wars, Los Angeles experienced move growth, in part because of the new airplane industry. At about the same time, the arrival of two New York motion picture producers in search of sunny weather marked the beginning of an entertainment industry that has become a multibillion-dollar industry today. In just the past 100 years, this tiny sea village has grown into the sprawling metropolis that we know today. (27) A．European expeditions in the 1700s. B．Famous sites in Los Angeles.

an all share bid of four Paxis shares for every five Wragger shares. The most recent annual data relating to the two companies are shown below: <img src='https://img2.soutiyun.com/ask/uploadfile/10839001-10842000/f959b47641eded5455eb88328b5ffc3d.gif' /> The takeover is expected to result in cost savings in advertising and distribution, reducing the operating costs (including depreciation) of Paxis from 76% of sales to 70% of sales. The growth rate of the combined company is expected to be 6% per year for four years, and 5% per year thereafter. Wragger’s debt obligations will be taken over by Paxis. The corporate tax rate is expected to remain at 30%. Sales and costs relevant to the decision may be assumed to be in cash terms. Required: (a) Using free cash flow analysis for each individual company and the potential combined company, estimate how much synergy is expected to be created from the takeover. State clearly any assumptions that you make. Note: The weighted average cost of capital of the combined company may be assumed to be the market weighted average of the current costs of capital of the individual companies, weighted by the current market value of debt and equity of the combined company, with the equity of Wragger adjusted for the effect of the bid price.
