阅读理解。    China reported blistering growth for the last three months of 2009 ,raising expectations of interest rate
increases and other measures to head off inflation.
     China has declared that it is recovering from the global economic crisis.
     Ma Jiantang, head of the National Bureau of Statistics, said Thursday the country"s economy grew by
10.7 percent in the last three months of 2009.
     Ma says China has managed to quickly hold back what he described as "the sliding of the national
economy". He says China has become the first country, on the whole, to achieve economic recovery and
stabilization.
     According to previous estimates, Ma says China"s  gross domestic product for 2009 rose 8.7 percent,
to nearly five trillion dollars.
     This goes beyond the official growth rate target of eight percent. The government has long considered
eight percent growth essential to create enough jobs for the country"s more than one billion people.
     At the same time, Ma says some problems and contradictions are natural.
     Ma says the Chinese government will  give more priority  to  restructuring  economic  and  improving
peoples" livelihood.
     To reduce the effects of the global economic crisis that began in 2008 ,China loosened lending
practices, cut interest rates and began massive spending programs. But the government wants to make
sure those measures do not contribute to inflation, which can be politically sensitive in a country where
hundreds of millions of people remain poor.
     Beijing resident Ms Wang says she is worried. She says she thinks prices are rising really fast. She
points to the price of cabbage, which has increased more than 10 times in the past year.
The head  of the  Chinese  Banking  Regulatory Commission, this week said the government will step up
monitoring of banks and rein in lending to prevent speculative bubbles (投机泡沫) in real estate ( 房地
产) and other assets.
     The World Bank on Thursday released a report that predicts China"s economy will grow by nine
percent this year. This contrasts with forecasts of 2.5 percent growth rate for the United States and one
percent growth for European economies in , because of weaknesses remaining from the global financial
crisis. 1.What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean?A. Prevent.    
B. Begin.  
C. Continue.    
D. Reduce.2. How many measures did China take to reduce the sliding of the national economy?A. 2.  
B. 3.

emphasized to any great degree, including some broad economic governance issues, some  
environmental issues, development policy, and green growth," the official said.
      During her meetings, Ms Clinton will be emphasizing some themes that are included in the broad
  G-20 rights. Although, she will not be going to get into the details of the G-20 financial part of the
  process, she will call for an open, free, transparent, and fair global economic system.
      Ms Clinton will address things like anti-competitive government practices or interference, which
  include the ways in which governments artificially distort (歪曲) markets or create uneven economic 
 playing fields, the official said.

shipping and sailing security to promote a well-functioning global economy; besides governance issues

阅读理解。     More than two-thirds of adults support the shutdown of social networks during periods of social
unrest such as the riots (暴乱) in England this summer, new research has shown.
     A survey of 973 adults carried out for the online security firm Unisys found 70% of adults supported
the shutdown of Twitter, Facebook and BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), while only 27% disagreed.
     Three-quarters agreed that governments should have open access to data on social network users in
order to prevent relevant (相应的) crime. Support for action against social networks was strongest
among over-65s and weakest among 18 to 24-year-olds, who are the heaviest users of the online
services.
     Several people were accused of attempting to start disturbances (***动) using Facebook during the
outbreak of rioting across England in August. The court recently refused a request o lower the sentences
of two people sent to prison for four years for attempting to arrange riots on the social media site, despite
them not leading to any disturbances.
     Analysis by the Guardian found little evidence to support claims the network had been used to set
off unrest. However, the BBM network was believed to have played a role in organizing disturbances.
     It"s very worrying that people would believe shutting down social networks would be worth. The vast
majority of social network use during the unrest was people spreading information and helping each other
get home safely. These kinds of actions would weaken the UK"s position against authoritarian regimes (独裁政权). As we live more of our lives online, people should be conscious of the amount of power they"re probably handing over to government.
     Jonathan Polanyi, a lawyer in criminal law and member of the Bar Council"s IT Committee, said
developments across 2011 suggested the UK"s legal system was failing to keep pace with technological
change.
     "We"ve seen discussions about libel (诽谤) and super-forbidden on Twitter; the use of social
networking to coordinate civil unrest in UK cities and a series of high profile attacks on well-known
companies which have led to loss of data," he said. "It is important that the law quickly develops to deal
with issues related to new technology."1. Which of the following person probably most agree with against social networks?A. A girl aged 10.          
B. An 18-year-old boy.
C. A young woman of 24.    
D. An old man of 66.  2. Two people were sentenced to prison for four years because they             .A. were against the social networks    
B. attempted to plan riots on the social media site
C. led to some disturbance to the social media site
D. started disturbances using Facebook and Twitter3. What is analyzed by the Guardian proved that                .A. the network had nothing to do with unrest    
B. the BBM network organized disturbances
C. shutting down social networks would be desirable
D. 70% of adults supported the shutdown of the network4. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. The UK"s legal system should be changed completely.
B. The law associated with new technology should be progressed.
C. Twitter has led to loss of data and should be accused.
D. Some well-known companies were attacked by Twitter.

Na-tional Bureau of Economic Research. The downturn is the longest since a depression that began in
1981and lasted sixteen months.

re-cession. But the bureau, a private group, uses a wider set of information to measure the economy.
Thenews only confirmed what many people already knew: that the world"s largest economy is weak and
maynot recover soon.

loan by the end of the month.
