was 36 in britain in 1881 to restrict 37 from foreign countries. in the united states, businesses and labor unions 38 “fair trade” laws to construct what economistjoseph stiglitzcalls “barriers to imports.” these so called “anti-dumping(反倾销)” laws allow a company that 39 a foreign one of selling a product below cost to request that the government charge special taxes to protect it from “unfair” 40 .such dark protectionist thoughts are far from the 41 of the organizers of the united kingdoms annual “fairtrade fortnight”. their 42 aim is to raise the price paid to developing-country farmers for their 43 by cutting out the inflated profits of the middlemen on whom they 44 for getting their goods to distant markets. fair-trade products 45 cocoa, coffee, tea, and bananas do not compete with domestic european production, and 46 do not have a protectionist motive(动机).this is how it works: in 47 for being paid a guaranteed price and meeting “agreed labor and environmental standards” (minimum wages, no farm chemicals ), poor-country farming cooperatives(合作社) receive a fairtrade mark for their products, given 48 by the fairtrade labeling organization. this mark 49 supermarkets and other businesses to sell the products at a higher than 50 price . third-world farmers get their income increased , 51 first-world consumers get to feel virtuous: a marriage made in heaven.the fair-trade movement, 52 in the 1980s, has been growing rapidly. in a significant breakthrough in 1997, the british house of commons 53 to serve only fair-trade coffee. by the end of 2007, more than 600 producers organizations, 54 1.4 million farmers in 58 countries, were selling fair-trade products. today, a quarter of all bananas in uk supermarkets are sold under a fairtrade mark. but fairtrade-labeled products still represent a very 55 share typically less than 1% of global sales of cocoa, tea, coffee, etc.36. a. discoveredb. foundedc. encouragedd. promoted37. a. importsb.

brain.the study, conducted by neuroscientists （神经学家）and psychologist from the university of maryland, concluded that women talked more because they had more of the foxp2 protein. the research, published in the journal of neuroscience, found that higher levels were found among humans that were women but in rats that were males. their findings came after it was previously claimed that ladies speak about 20,000 words a day over 13,000 more than men. this study is one of the first to report a sex difference in the expression of a language-associated protein in humans or animals,” said prof margaret mccarthy, who led the study. in their study, the researchers attempted to determine what might make male rats more vocal than their female friends. they separated four-day-old rats from their mothers and then counted the number of times they cried out in the “ultrasonic range”, the frequencies higher than humans can hear, over five minutes. while both sexes called out hundreds of cries, the males called out twice as often, they found. but when the pups were returned to their mothers cage, she fussed over her sons first. tests conducted on the parts of the brain known to be associated with vocalcalls showed the male pups have up to twice as much foxp2 protein as the females. the researchers then increased the production in the brains of female pups and reduced it in males. this led to the female rats crying out more often and their mothers showing more interest to them. in contrast, males became less “talkative”.the researchers then tested samples from ten children, aged between three and five, which showed that females had up to 30 per cent more of the foxp2 protein than males, in a brain area key to language in humans.“based on our observations, we assume higher levels of foxp2 in girls and higher levels of foxp2 in male rats is an indication that foxp2 protein levels are associated with the more communicative sex,” said prof mccarthy.our results imply foxp2 as a component of the neurobiological basis of sex differences in vocal communication in mammals.56. from the second paragraph, we can learn that _.a. women always speak more words than menb. men and male rats have low levels of language proteinc. women and male rats have similar levels of foxp2d. mccarthy isnt the first to find females more talkative57. the underlined phrase “fussed over” in the third paragraph probably means_.a. paid attention to b. related toc. put pressure ond. counted on58. the researchers carried out the experiments on rats in order to _.a. test which part of the brain is key to language in rats and humansb. prove the levels of foxp2 protein in humans and rats are differentc. determine the reason why female rats are more talkative than male ratsd. discover the association between foxp2protein and vocal communication59. which of the following can be the best title for the passage ? a. tests on humans and ratsb. why women are the talkative sex c. sex differences in foxp2 proteind. foxp2 protein determines oral abilitybfrom theouterof new york to the heart of singapore, nature is everywhere youre not looking in some of earths most crowded big cities. outdoor adventure is often just a few stops on the train - or a short drive- away from theannoyingcrowds.here are a few favorites to get you going:mount hollywood trail, los angelesits not a skyscraper or a ferris wheel, and theres no expensive restaurant up top. but if you want an absolutely unforgettable, no-admission-charged, 360-degree view of the entire los angeles region , its yours. all you have to do is walk a little. one of the preferred exercise routes, the mount hollywood trail, is easily accessed from the parking lot of the famous griffithobservatory; you see what you get at the end of this steep 1.5-mile trail, which winds its way through the griffith park wilds up to the mountains 1,640-foot peak.bronx river, new yorkit may not be on your top 10 list of things to do when you finally get to the big apple, but exploring the almost-secret river that flows through one of new yorks most mysteriousboroughs(自治市) is an unforgettable experience. the bronx river alliance, a non-profit group that has worked tirelessly to bring the much-abused river back to life , operates cycling and canoeing trips along the river, from the rugged hunts point section down near the harbor on up through the borough. southern islands, singapore believe it or not, tightly packedsingapore does have plenty of open space left . there are actual trails right in the middle of everything, if you know where to look . but to really get away from it all, the southern islands, a small group of little green dots just off the city-states southern shoreline, are just the thing. lee valley, londonthis east london river valley changed last summer, when anyone near a television got an eyeful of olympic park, built directly in the middle of the valley. inside the park, beautifully landscaped sections quickly became a favorite relaxation spot for games goers. at present, youll find miles of walking paths worth exploring. start at the waltham cross train and follow the signposted walking route southbound, guiding you past important historic industrial areas, through interesting city neighborhoods, past the western side of olympic park and on to the thames.60. if someone wants to enjoy an unforgettable experience for free , he can go to _. a. mount hollywood trail and bronx riverb. mount hollywood trail and southern islands c. lee valley and southern islandsd. bronx river and lee valley61. the writer of the passage wants to _. a. inform the readers that nature exists in crowded big cities b. appeal to more people to outdoor adventure c. recommend several historical spots to readers d. present various approach to outdoor adventure62. we know from the passage _. a. its difficult to find a proper trail in packed singapore b. the thames is not far away from the east london river valley c. the bronx river alliance has succeeded in running the river d. you may have trouble reaching the mount hollywood trailcnarayana hrudayalaya, a complex of health centers based in southern india, offers low-cost, high-quality specialty care in a largely poor country of 1.2 billion people. by thinking differently about everything from the unusually high number of patients it treats to the millions for whom it provides insurance, the hospital group is able to continually reduce costs. narayana hrudayalayas operations include the worlds largest and most productive cardiac (心脏病的) hospital, where the average open-heart surgery runs less than $2,000, a third or less what it costs elsewhere in india.narayana hrudayalayas origins date back to 2001, when it built its massive cardiac center on the outskirts （市郊）of bangalore. but it has expanded since then into what founder dr. devi shetty calls a health city, a series of centers specializing in eye, trauma, and cancer care. narayana hrudayalaya now manages or owns hospitals in 14 other indian cities. expanding access is paired with a ongoing focus on efficiency. typically, says shetty, private hospitals in india focus on patients who can easily afford treatment. we did it the other way around, he says. this hospital is for poor people, but we also treat some rich people. we dont look at people who are sgabbily dressed and have trouble paying as outsiders. narayana hrudayalayas flagship hospital has 3,000 beds and negotiates for better prices and buys directly from manufacturers, cutting out distributors. in addition to cost-cutting, narayana hrudayalaya finds creative ways to make the economics work. the company started a micro-insurance program backed by the government that enables 3 million farmers to have coverage for as little as 22 cents a month in premiums（保险费）. patients who pay discounted rates are in effect compensated by those who pay full price doing something-doing more, actually-is the point. by 2017, shetty, 58, plans to expand from 5,000 beds throughout india to 30,000. before becoming one of indias best-known health-care entrepreneurs, shetty was its best-known heart surgeon. he was interrupted in surgery one day during the 1990s by a request to make a house call. i said, i dont make home visits, shetty says, and the caller said, if you see this patient, the experience may transform your life. the request was from mother teresa. inspired by the her work with the poor, he then set out to create a hospital to deliver care based on need, not wealth. one lesson she taught me, he says, quoting a saying he keeps framed in his office, is hands that sew are holier than lips that pray.63. narayana hrudayalayastarted a micro-insurance to _. a. cut down on the cost of the treatmentb. get the support of the government c. make the company run smoothlyd. attract more people to its hospital64. we can
