Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
United Nations officials say now fewer people than they thought are infected with the AIDS virus.
Last year, the agency known as UNAIDS thought that 39.5 million people were living with HIV.On Tuesday it reduced by 16% to a little more than 33 million.
Agency officials say the low number reflects better information form more countries.The agency reduced the number for five African countries: Angola, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria and Zimbabwe.
Also, UNAIDS says it now believes the number of new HIV cases per year reached a high in the late 1990s at more than three million.This year, it thinks that 2.5 million people became infected, and 2 million people died of AIDS.
Luckily, better treatments are saving lives, and more people are getting the drugs.
Yet even as the number of new infections has dropped, UN officials say AIDS is still one of the leading causes of the death worldwide, and the major cause in Africa.African death rates remain high, they say, because treatment needs are not being met.Sub-Saharan Africa had almost 70% of the new cases of HIV reported this year.UNAIDS officials say this is a sharp reduction since 2001, but there is a need to further improve research method.
Billions of dollars are being spent preventing and treating HIV.Experts worry that the new number may lead to a drop in financial support.But UNAIDS officials say they do not change the need for immediate action and more money.They warn that in some countries, infection rates that were falling are rising again now.

Scientists discovered 163 new species in Southeast Asia’s Greater Mekong region last year,but all are at risk of extinction due to climate change,the WWF said in a report released Friday.
The newly discovered creatures include a bird?eating frog with fangs (毒牙),a bird that would rather walk than fly and a gecko (壁虎) whose alien appearance inspired the report’s title of “Close Encounters”,the conservation group said.
The report was released ahead of major UN talks on climate change in Bangkok next week,which are being held before a make?or?break summit in Copenhagen this December.
“Some species will be able to adapt to climate change,and many will not,potentially resulting in massive extinction,” Stuart Chapman,director of the WWF Greater Mekong program,said in the report.“Rare and endangered species like those newly discovered are especially vulnerable (易受傷害的) because climate change will further shrink their already restricted habitats,” he said.
“The new discoveries in 2010 include 100 plants,28 fish,18 reptiles,14 amphibians,2 mammals and a bird,”the WWF report said.The area spans Cambodia,Laos,Myanmar,Thailand,Vietnam and China’s Yunnan Province.
“Among the new species is the bird?eating fanged frog,which remains hidden in a protected area of Thailand despite the fact that scientists are studying there for 40 years,” the report said.
The tiger?striped pit viper was discovered accidentally on an island off the coast of Vietnam when a scientist was looking? for a lizard and his son pointed out that his hand was on a rock right next to? the snake’s fangs.“We caught the snake and the gecko and they both proved to be new species,” researcher Lee Grismer of La Sierra University in California was quoted as saying in the report.The leopard gecko,found on another Vietnamese island,has the coloring of a leopard and bizarre orange,cat?like eyes and thin legs.
The Greater Mekong region has proved a rich area? for scientists.The WWF said in December 2010 that it had found 1,068 new species there between 1997 and 2009.

閱讀表達(dá)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)
【1】The air was pleasant and the music was loud in the vast square in front of the New York State office building in Harlem(哈萊姆, 美國(guó)紐約市黑人居住區(qū)) as health advocates(支持者,提倡者) set up information tables for Harlem wellness Week. It was a wide-ranging effort to educate people about non-communicable diseases: Heart disease, cancer, lung disease, obesity, and so on.
【2】There is an economic effect caused by these diseases, especially in Harlem, one of the city’s poorest districts. Without healthy employees and healthy customers, you cannot have healthy business, says Patricia Ricketts of the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, which sponsors Wellness Week.
【3】Dr. Jo Ivy Boufford is president of the New York Academy of Medicine, a Wellness Week partner. She says education about better nutrition is important, but that people with low incomes often lack the means to put what they know into practice. But there is hope. New York is very active in adovating good, effective public health policies. “New York City has banned smoking in public places, both indoors and outdoors. That is a fantastic example of what can be done, without having any impact on the economy. It is a city where you have bike paths. That is a good message for the world, because bikes make your transport active. That is good for your health and lowers air pollution,” she said.
【4】“It is not enough to focus on the management of disease through medication,” Dr. Boufford says. “That’s why health advocates will be trying to persuade UN officials during Wellness Week to pass resolutions that deal with road and transport design and construction and other potential causes of non-communicable diseases.”
1. What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8words)
2. Complete the following statement with words from Paragraph【4】.(no more than 3words)_______________ the management of disease through medication is not enough.

4.Do you think it is necessary to hold a Wellness Week to prevent diseases? Why, or why not? (no more than 16 words)
5. What does the word “That”(paragraph 3) refer to?(no more than 4 words)

The man known as the French “ Spiderman” climbed The New York Times building on Thursday to draw attention to global warming, and six hours later another climber made the same climb.
Alain Robert, 45, the first person to climb the 52-story skyscraper, told reporters ahead of the climb on the UN World Environment Day his aim was to raise awareness of global warming since this is one of the main problems for our time.
His manager Julie Cohen said she knew nothing about the second climber. She added that Robert’s climbs were without risk and he was a professional climber.
Robert climbed without equipment except for climbing shoes. He was greeted at the top by the police who arrested him.
The second climber was also immediately arrested at the top by police. His climb at the height of the evening rush hour drew crowds and was shown live on at least one TV station.
Several people in the crowd shouted“jump” when he stopped part of the way to rest, but there was a loud cheer as he reached the top. Wearing red pants , black climbing shoes and a white T-shirt that read “ Malaria(瘧疾) No More”, the man laughed as he was led away by the police from the building.
“ We don’t look at him as a modern spiderman,” said James Coil, a member of the police emergency services unit. “ We look at him as somebody who not only puts his life at risk but is one of members of the public as well.”
Martin Edlund, director of “ Malaria No More”, which aims to prevent the one million yearly deaths from malaria, said the climber had nothing to do with them, but they appreciated his enthusiasm.

Berlin---China’s endeavor(efforts) to enhance(step up) environmental protection, energy-saving and gas emission-cut(減排) and build a resource-conserving society is of great significance to the world, said Klaus Toepfer, former chief of the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) in a recent interview with Xinhua.
“Such a move is in the interest of the entire world, and meets the need of the global sustainable development(可持續(xù)性發(fā)展),” he added.
ACHIEVEMENTS
“As a member of China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development (CCICED), I have seen the strong determination of China’s leadership,” said Toepfer.
“The performance of the Chinese central and regional governments during the process of urbanization(城市化進(jìn)程) also makes me believe that it has become the consensus(共識(shí))of all the governments to protect the environment, save energy, cut greenhouse gas emission, and to build an resource-conserving society.”
The expert took Shanghai as an example. “The Shanghai government is fully aware of the importance of an energy-saving and resource-efficient structure.”
To make Shanghai an eco-friendly city, the municipal government(市政府)has taken measures such as building more sewage processing facilities(污水處理設(shè)備), limiting the number of cars to help ease traffic jam and improve air conditions, he said, describing them as quite impressive.
He also noted many changes in the government’s policies concerning manufacturing and service industries(加工、服務(wù)業(yè)), an indication of China’s new approach to environmental protection and energy conservation.
For instance, China has given higher priority(優(yōu)先)to the proper handling of carbon dioxide emission. The country has also actively been engaged in the research and development of electricity-powered cars and cars that use alternative energy.
MORE TO BE DONE
However, despite the positive results, more needs to be done in China, the former UN environment chief said.
China still needs to make tremendous efforts to tackle tough challenges such as to protect water resources, reduce air pollution and enhance energy efficiency, he added.
Toepfer suggested that China introduce advanced new technologies on environmental protection and energy-saving from other countries, and actively participate in international cooperation projects on environmental protection and energy conservation as the country already has a strong scientific and economic capability.
On the negative impacts of the ongoing financial crisis on environmental protection and energy conservation, Toepfer said the impacts are obvious, but only of short duration. As governments’ measures to stabilize financial markets take effect, environmental protection and energy conservation will again become the world's major concern, he said.
67. The passage may probably be entitled ______.
A. China's environmental protection crucial (至關(guān)重要的)to the world
B. China’s achievements and tasks in environmental protection
C. China’s contributions to the sustainable development of the world
D. China’s determination in face of the ongoing financial crisis
68. In Toepfer’s opinion, the major concern at present is ______.
A. energy conservation B. environmental protection
C. carbon dioxide emission D. financial crisis
69. Toepfer’s attitude towards the ongoing financial crisis is ______.
A. contradictory B. negative C. optimistic D. pessimistic(悲觀的)
70. Which of the following statements is true referring to the passage?
A. Regional governments’ work is not so efficient.
B. Efforts made by China have won the appreciation of the world.
C. The present financial crisis will last for several years at least.
D. At present China should introduce new technologies on production.
