　　Many United States companies have made the search for legal protection from import competition into a major line of work. Since 1980, the United States International Trade Commission(ITC) has received about 280 complaints alleging damage from imports that benefit from subsidies(补贴)by foreign governments. Another 340 charge that foreign companies “dumped” their products in the United States at “less than fair value”. Even when no unfair practices are claimed, the simple claim that an industry has been injured by imports is sufficient grounds to seek relief(救济).
　　Contrary to the general impression, this request for import relief has hurt more companies than it has helped. As corporations begin to function globally, they develop a complicated web of marketing, production, and research relationships. The complexity of these relationships manlikely that a system of import relief laws will meet the strategic needs of all the units under the same parent company. Internationalization increases the danger that foreign companies will use import relief laws against the very companies the laws were designed to protect. Suppose a United States-owned company establishes an overseas plant to manufacture a product while its competitor makes the same product in the United States. If the competitor can prove injury from the imports——and that the United States company received a subsidy from a foreign government to build its plant abroad——the United States company’s products will be uncompetitive in the United States, since they would be subject to duties.
　　Perhaps the most shameful case occurred when the ITC investigated allegations(控诉) that Canadian companies were injuring the United States salt industry by dumping rock salt, used to deice roads. The bizarre aspect of the complaint was that a foreign conglomerate(联合企业) with United States operations was crying for help against a United States company with foreign operations. The “United States” company claiming injury was a unit of a Dutch conglomerate, while the “Canadian” companies included a unit of a Chicago firm that was the second-largest domestic producer of rock salt.
　　25. The passage is chiefly concerned with         .
　　A. arguing against the increased internationalization of US corporations
　　B. recommending a uniform method for handling claims of unfair trade practices
　　C. warning that the application of laws affecting trade frequently has unintended consequences
　　D. advocating the use of trade restrictions for “dumped” products but not for other imports
　　26. What can be inferred about the minimal basis for a complaint to the ITC?
　　A. A foreign competitor is selling products in the US at less than fair mare.
　　B. A foreign competitor has greatly increased the volume of products shipped to the US.
　　C. The company requesting import relief has been banned from exporting products.
　　D. The company requesting import relief has been injured by the sale of imports in the US.
　　27. Which of the following is most likely to be true of US trade laws?
　　A. They will eliminate the practice of “dumping” products in the US.
　　B. Those applied to international companies will help to gain more profits.
　　C. They will affect US trade with Canada more negatively than trade with other nations.
　　D. Those helping one unit within a parent company won’t necessarily help other units.
　　C
　　Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a large building, but usually these buildings are not designed with the comfort of a king in mind. When it comes to structures that are both beautiful and defensive, the European castle is a big success.
　　Castles were originally built in England by the Normans in 1066. They built towers and walls to secure the land they had taken. These castles provided the Normans with a quiet and safe place. They also served as bases of operation for attacks. In this way castles served both defensive and offensive roles. Besides, castles served as offices for governors. Those that were socially beneath the governor would come to report affairs and express their respect. They would address problems, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities in castles. So castles served as social centers as well.
　　The first castles were made from earth and wood, and they were likely to suffer from attacks by fire. Then wooden castles were gradually replaced by stone, which greatly increased the strength of these towers and walls. However, attacld throw flaming objects into castles through the windows or burn the wooden doors. This led to moving the windows and entrances off of the ground floor and up to the first floor to make them more difficult to access.
　　During the Middle Ages, attacks increased in regularity, so castle defenses were updated. Arrow-slits were added. They were small holes in the castle, which allowed defenders to fire without being hurt. Towers were built from which defenders could provide fire on both sides. The towers were connected to the castle by wooden bridges, so that if one tower fell, the rest of the castle was still easy to defend. A lot of rings of castle walls were constructed, so that even if attackers went past one wall, they would be caught on a killing ground between inner and outer walls. All of these increased the defense of castles.
　　The end of castles can be attributed to gunpowder. During the 15th century, artillery, a kind of large guns, became powerful enough to breagh stone walls. This greatly made the role of castles less effective. Though castles no longer serve their original purposes, remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year who wish to experience the situations of ancient times.
　　28. What was the original function of castles according to the passage?
　　A. They served as tourist attractions.
　　B. They were important social centers.
　　C. They marked religious ceremonies.
　　D. They were built for use in emergencies.
　　29. The reason why wooden castles were replaced by stone castles was that         .
　　A. stone castles cost less money
　　B. stone castles offered better defense
　　C. wooden castles were uncomfortable
　　D. wooden castles took a long time to build
　　30. Which of the following showed an improvement in castle defenses?
　　A. Castles were totally separated by stones.
　　B. Arrow-slits were made in large quantities.
　　C. Rings of walls were built to defend the towers.
　　D. Windows and entrances were moved to the higher floor.
　　31. What is the best title of the passage?
　　A. Fancy Living: Learning about Castles
　　B. Normans: Bringing Castles to England
　　C. A History of Castles: The Rise and Fall of Castles
　　D. Defending Castles: Technologies Used to Defend Castles
　　D
　　A schoolgirl saved her father’s life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic reaction which stopped his heart.
　　Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm’s heart by stamping(踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.
　　Izzy’s mother, Debbie, immediately called 999, but Inew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.

　　Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: “I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn’t strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared.

　　“She’s a little star,” said Debbie. “I was really upset, but Izzy just took over. I just can’t believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid. Izzy did CPR, then the doctor turned up. Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we’ve got to see an expert.”
