In a lengthy speech to the UN Security Council (Thursday), Mr. A1-Qaysi said the British draft resolution would do nothing to lessen the humanitarian suffering in his country. Speaking through an English translator, Mr. A1-Qaysi said the claim that the proposals will help the Iraqi people is misleading. Mr. A1-Qaysi said what he called the" siege against Iraq "must come to an end.

Animal welfare groups are apparently most concerned with high school students experimenting with animals in extracurricular projects. Barbara Orlans, President of the Scientists' Center for Animal Welfare, said that students have been performing surgery at random, testing known poisonous substances, and running other pathology experiments on animals without even knowing normal physiology. At one science fair, a student cut off the leg and tail of a lizard to demonstrate that only the tail can regenerate, she said. In another case, a student bound sparrows, starved them and observed their behavior. "The amount of abuse has been quite horrifying", Orlans said. Administrators of major science fairs are short-tempered over the teachers' policy change and the impression it has created. "The teachers were sold a bill of goods by Barbara Orlans", said Thurman Grafton, who heads the rules committee for the International Science and Engineering Fair. "Backyard tabletop surgery is just nonsense. The new policies throw cold water on students' inquisitiveness", he said. Grafton said he wouldn't deny that there hasn't been animal abuse among projects at the international fair, but he added that judges reject contestants who have unnecessarily injured animals. The judges have a hard time monitoring local and regional fairs that may or may not choose to comply with the international fair's rules that stress proper care of animals, Grafton said. He said that several years ago, the Westinghouse Science Talent Search banned harmful experiments to animals when sponsors threatened to cancel their support after animal welfare groups lobbied for change. The teachers adopted the new policies also to fend off proposed legislation—in states including Missouri and New York—that would restrict or prohibit experiments on animals. Officials of the two teachers organizations say that they don't know how many animals have been abused in the classroom. On the one hand, many biology teachers are not trained in the proper care of animals, said Wayne Moyer, executive director of the biology teachers' association. On the other, the use of animals in experiments has dropped in recent years because of school budget cuts. The association may set up seminars to teach better animal care to its members.

Both start at about $20,000, seat four, and get between 22 and 24 miles per gallon from their four-cylinder engines. Each has fully insulated cloth tops with rear windows made of real glass, which makes them comfort- able to use in winter. Front-wheel drive helps make them safer to drive over snow and ice. Both also offer high- performance turbocharged models starting at about $25,000. Both have bulging fenders and cool, retro personalities. Beyond that, they're very different. The PT Cruiser focuses on practicality, while the Beetle is more fun to drive. That fun comes from the car's chassis, suspension, and overall structure. Crank the steering into a turn and the Car follows like an eager puppy. The engine isn't powerful, but loves to rev, so you can downshift to accelerate. The New Beetle Convertible has developed an unfortunate reputation as a "chick car" for its cute looks and the lack of power in the standard model. But for an extra $1,600, VW offers its turbocharged version, with a 150 horsepower, 1.8 liter engine, which gives the car some snap. Even so, the convertible top eliminates what little practicality the New Beetle hatchback offers. To fit the folding top, the back seat was narrowed and angled so upright it's uncomfortable. And the folded top sits above a tiny trunk, with only five cubic feet of capacity and accessible through a smaller porthole. Weekend trippers had better not have kids --or plan to rough it with more than a backpack or two. Interior storage is also minuscule. As with the New Beetle hatchback, the windshield is disconcertingly far away, and the wipers clear only a small slit of a view in front. Compared with the profile of the hatchback, however, the convertible sports a top that' s lower and a little less cartoonlike. The PT Cruiser, on the other hand, looks its sinister best with the top up. Peeling the top off reveals its cutesy "roll hoop". (Chrysler denies the hoop offers rollover protection and calls it a light bar.) But the Cruiser, like its four-door brethren, offers all the year-round practicality the original Beetle convertible did in its day. The back seat is comfortable for two people, and the trunk is roomy. Unfortunately, it's also hard to access because the big trunk lid gets in the way when open. So instead of standing to load or unload the car, you have to squat or kneel. But the storage space is huge --the biggest I've seen in any convertible. And the back seats fold forward in case you need to carry some long cargo. The interior offers four cup holders and several large storage bins. The 220-horsepower turbocharged engine in the GT model makes the Cruiser seriously quick, which backs up its hot-rod looks. But after that, the driving experience falls apart. Like its hot-rod inspirations, the Cruiser is best on a straight, smooth road. Over bumps, its floppy chassis wobbles like jello. On the highway, the Cruiser I tested needed continual corrections to stay in its lane. The manual shifter on the GT proved sloppy; it was hard to be sure which gear the car was about to engage. Several times I hit fifth gear when aiming for third. Chrysler apparently anticipated this problem, as a brief warning chimes to let you know when you're in reverse. Neither the PT Cruiser convertible nor the New Beetle is perfect. But for fun in the sun or even the fall -- what could be better？ Both cars brought constant waves, smiles, and stories from passersby. What's a convertible about if it isn't looking good on the road and brightening your day？ Those who choose Volkswagen's Ne A．practicality B．fun to drive C．prices D．style

Japan has a population of over 116,000,000. The people are thickly settled on the four main islands. Since only one sixth of the land is arable, Japan relies on imported food. To pay for the imports, Japan exports manufactured goods. Japan builds and sells cars, motorcycles, television sets, radios and cameras. Textiles and chemicals also made. In Yokohama Harbor, ships are constructed for use by other nations. The "head start" western nations had may be the reason for Japan's success today. Western countries are still using machines and technology that they developed many years ago. Japan is using newer, improved methods. For example, robots are relieving factory-workers of long, tiring jobs. Modem technology has brought modern problems. Air and water quality reached dangerous levels in some parts of Japan in the late 1960's. Since then, the Japanese government has applied strong pollution controls. The main idea of the passage is that Japan ________. A．surprises the world. B．Suffers from serious air and water pollution C．Leads in exporting goods D．Leads in technology in the world today

Why are so many firms coming to the U. S. ？ There are many reasons. One of the greatest attractions, of course, is a market of over 200 million consumers with a high average per capital income. In addition, with the devalued dollar the cost of American labor has declined significantly, relative to many foreign labor costs. Some firms seeking to avoid economic and/or political pressures at home find the U. S. a politically stable environment in which to work. Many hope to be able to continue selling to the American market even if the U. S. government restricts imports further, or if major price changes occur due to currency fluctuations (波动). Many foreigners are attracted by U.S. technology, its modem management methods, its labor saving and mass production techniques. In 1980 the largest foreign financial investor in the U. S. was from ______. A．H.K. B．U.K. C．Latin America D．South Africa

As the 100th anniversary of the first powered flight approaches in December, the industry it launched is still remarkably primitive. The car industry, created not long after the Wright Brothers made history, is now a global industry dominated by a dozen firms, at least half of which make good profits. Yet commercial aviation consists of 267 international carriers and another 500-plus domestic ones. The world's biggest carrier, American Airlines, has barely 7% of the global market, whereas the world's biggest carmaker, General Motors, has (with its associated firms) about a quarter of the world's automobile market. Aviation has been incompletely deregulated, and in only two markets: America and Europe. Everywhere else deals between governments direction who flies under what roles. These aim to preserve state-owned national flag-carriers, run for prestige rather than profit. And numerous restrictions on foreign ownership make cross-border airline mergers impossible. In America, the big network carriers face barriers to exit, which have kept their route networks too large. Trade unions resisting job cuts and Congressmen opposing route closures in their territory conspire to block change. In Europe, liberalization is limited by bilateral deals that prevent, for instance, British Airways (BA) flying to America from Frankfurt or Pads, or Lufthansa offering transatlantic flights from London's Heathrow. To use the car industry analogy, it is as if only Renaults were allowed to drive on French motorways. In airlines, the optimists are those who think that things are now so bad that the industry has no option but to evolve. Frederick Reid, president of Delta Airlines, said earlier this year that events since the 911 attacks are the equivalent of a meteor strike, changing the climate, creating a sort of nuclear winter and leading to a "compressed evolutionary cycle". So how, looking on the bright side, might the industry look after five years of accelerated development？ According to the author, the deeper problems of aviation industry ______. A．are the effects of various disasters B．are actually not fully recognized C．are attracting a lot of attention D．are not the real cause of airlines' bankruptcy

The kidnapping took place ______. A．on Sunday B．last month C．when the van was found D．before seven foreigners were killed

As the definition indicates, and as for any kind of domestic business, 'satisfaction' remains a key tenet of international business. The fact that the transactions are across international borders highlights the difference between domestic and international business. The international executive is subject to a new set of macro-environmental factors, to different constraints, and to quite frequent conflicts resulting from different laws, cultures, and societies. The basic principles of business still apply, but their application, complexity, and intensity vary substantially. 21. International business consists of domestic and international transactions. 22. Export-import trade is the basic form. of international business. 23. As the definition indicates, 'satisfaction' remains a key tenet of international business. 'A key tenet' here means an important principle. 24. There is no difference between national and international business. 25. International business is influenced by different laws, cultures, and societies.
