The United Nations Conference on Drug Abuse that took place earlier this year in Vienna, was a very productive meeting. As never before, the nations of the world demonstrated a willingness to confront a common threat.
Most previous international gatherings on this subject have not seen the same intensity of delegate inter est. Many nations have gone through a shock of recognition. A decade ago, only those nations identified as "producing countries" also become "consuming countries", but many have witnessed the growth within their borders of drug trafficking gangs (often allied with terrorists) so powerful they present a danger to the state's stability. Many developing countries now have the worst of both worlds, in that they grow their own people. There is a growing sense of fright in ninny governments that matters are out of control and the single way to recover is through cooperation with other countries.
The high points of the conference were the drafting of two documents, both of which were adopted with out a disagreed vote. One was a joint declaration of intent to combat drag abuse and traffic. The other consisted of many detailed suggestions for particular regional and national policies.
Overall, the conference developed a two-level action plan. The focus was on ways to curb the demand for dangerous drugs and on methods of destroying at least interrupting the distribution process.
On the demand side, the delegates recommended the establishment of a system for collecting information on the nature and scope of narcotics use. In addition, they concluded that drug education should be taught in schools and that governments and labor organizations should act together in the anti-drug campaign in the work place. The delegates also recommended strict adherence to international agreements to curb the supply of narcotics.
The United Nations Conference was held to discuss ______.
A.ideological and individual differences
B.production
C.drug abuse
D.nations of file world

After World War Ⅱ the glorification of an ever-larger GNP formed the basis of a new materialism, which became a sacred obligation for all Japanese governments, businesses and trade unions. Anyone who mentioned the undesirable by-products of rapid economic growth was treated as a heretic. Consequently, everything possible was done to make conditions easy for the manufacturers. Few dared question the wisdom of discharging untreated waste into the nearest water body or untreated smoke into the atmosphere. This silence was maintained by union leaders as well as by most of the country's radicals; except for a few isolated voices, no one protested. An insistence on treatment of the various effluents would have necessitated expenditures on treatment equipment that in turn would have given rise to higher operating costs. Obviously, this would have meant higher prices for Japanese goods, and ultimately fewer sales and lower industrial growth and GNP.
The pursuit of nothing but economic growth is illustrated by the response of the Japanese government to the American educational mission that visited Japan in 1947. After surveying Japan's educational program, the Americans suggested that the Japanese fill in their curriculum gap by creating departments in chemical and sanitary engineering. Immediately, chemical engineering departments were established in all the country's universities and technical institutions. In contrast, the recommendation to form. sanitary engineering departments was more or less ignored, because they could bring no profit. By 1960, only two second-rate universities, Kyoto and Hokkaido, were interested enough to open such departments.
The reluctance to divert funds from production to conservation is explanation enough for a certain degree of pollution, but the situation was made worse by the type of technology the Japanese chose to adopt for their industrial expansion. For the most part, they simply copied American industrial methods. This meant that methods originally designed for use in a country that stretched from the Atlantic to the Pacific with lots of air and water to use as sewage receptacles were adopted for an area a fraction of the size. Moreover, the Japanese diet was much more dependent on water as a source of fish and as an input in the irrigation of rice; consequently discharged wastes built up much more rapidly, in the food chain.

Many science reports discuss medical studies that test the effect of a new drug. Usually, a large number of people is divided into two groups. Each group takes a different substance. But no one knows which group is getting which substance. One group takes the medicine being tested. Another group takes what we call an inactive substance. Medical researchers call this substance a "placebo." The word "placebo" is Latin for "I shall please." Placebo pills(宽心丸)usually are made of sugar.
Using placebos to test drugs sometimes has a surprising result. Researchers say people taking the placebo often report improvements in their health. This is known as "the placebo effect"--pain that is eased or stopped by an inactive substance. In such testing, the drug must perform. better than the placebo to prove that it is effective.
Doctors have reported that the placebo effect can be used in treatment. For example, a doctor tells a patient that a new drug will stop the pain in his leg. The pill is only sugar. But the patient does not know that. He takes the pill and says his pain is gone.
Scientists are beginning to discover some physical reasons for this reaction in some people. They are learning that much of what people believe to be true comes from what the brain expects is going to happen. If the brain believes a drug will ease pain, the brain may begin physical changes in the body that can cause the expected effect. A recent examination of studies on drugs for depression found that placebos eased the depression about as well as the active drugs.
Other studies have explored the power of placebos. A study in Japan involved thirteen
people who reacted to the poison ivy (常青藤)plant. Poison-ivy causes red itchy sores(伤痕)on some people who touch it. Each person was rubbed on one arm with a harmless leaf, but was told it was poison ivy. Each person was then touched on the other arm with poison ivy, but was told it was a harmless leaf. All thirteen people developed a reaction on the arm where the harmless leaf touched their skin. Only two reacted to the poison ivy leaves.
Doctors and scientists worry that the use of placebos may not always be harmless. They say people can become victims of false doctors and others who use placebos to claim they can cure disease.
What do medical researchers usually use to make placebo pills?
A.Ivy leaves.
B.Harmless leaves.
C.Medicine being tested.
D.sugar.

Never use any drug unless there is a good reason, especially for the woman who is expecting a baby. Ask the patient if he has had previous drug reactions: if he has, be careful. It is estimated that more than half of the adverse reactions that are reported would be prevented if this were done. Ask the patient ff he is already receiving other drugs.
If possible, use a drug with which you are familiar. If you use a new drug, be especially on the watch for adverse reactions. Report serious or unusual reactions suspected as due to established drugs, and any reaction however slight that may be due to a newly marketed drug.
This is a set of recommendations for ______.
A.doctors prescribing for patients
B.doctors training people who take drugs
C.drug companies
D.persons who sell drugs

听力原文: Like hundreds before them, a team of 10 Americans arrived at the second of four base camps on Mt. Everest this week. But tike few others, this one had a goal of making history.
That' s because one of its members is 32 - year - old Erik Weihenmeyer, who hopes to become the first blind man to clear the famed 29,035 -foot peak.
Weihenmeyer has been blind since age 13, having lost his sight to a rare disease called retinoschisis. But despite his lack of sight, the Denver, Colo. , man has still managed to turn himself into a world - class adventurer -- a certified sky and scuba diver who also competes in long - distance bi king and marathon running, as well as skiing and mountain eering. In 1995, he scaled North America' s highest peak, Mt. McKinley; in 1997, he topped Mt. Kilimanjaro, and in January 1999, he summited Argentina' s Aeoneagua, the tallest mountain in South America. Weihenmeyer has climbed mountains using a system he devised himself. He works with two long adjustable trekking poles -- leaning on one and scanning in front of him with another. He' ll also use his sense of hearing, listening to footsteps around him and a hell tied to the climber ahead of him. But Weinhenmeyer says he' ll also be a real part of the team. He says he's strong, and can contribute by carrying loads, setting up tents and building up snow walls. Weihenmeyer says he wants to climb the highest peak on all seven continents -- but he says he' s no daredevil. Still, Weibenmeyer admits to sealy moments. One of the worst was on an open ridge on Mt. McKinley, where a miscalculation of a few inches could have meant death. The lessons are only part of the reason Weinhenmeyer wanted to climb Everest. He says he' s wanted to take on the mountain for a long time. The folklore surrounding the mountain, all the famous tales --" You read a bout it from such an early age. It' s cool to be part of it," he said.. There' s the bonus of feeling of the sun on your face, and sensing the height of where you are, from the sound and the space around you. That blindness is also a reason he' s climbing. He' s being supported by the National Federation for the Blind, an activist organization seeking to change the way people think about blindness. But Weihenmeyer also recognizes that a good part of his climb is for himself.
Weibenmeyer' s team will attempt to summit Everest via the southeast ridge route pioneered by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay 47 years ago. The team attempted to summit the 22,486 foot Mount Ama Dablam, in the Everest region in Nepal last year, but had to withdraw because of bad weather. In May 1998, a disabled American climber, Tom Whittaeker, who has an artificial leg, climbed Everest.
Why did the team of 10 Americans had a goal of making history?
A.Because it is the first team that topped Mt. Everest.
B.Because all of the members of the team are blind men except Erik Weihenmeyer.
C.Because one of its members is Erik Weihenmeyer, who hopes to become the first blind man to clearthe famed Mt. Everest.
D.Because all of the members of the team are old men who are eager to climb the famed peak.
