Practice 6　　A certain historical distance has always existed

题目
问答题
Practice 6　　A certain historical distance has always existed between the Asian region and the international organization. Most of New York’s energy is consumed by the Middle East and Africa, not Asia. The UN is Atlanticist in structure and sometimes in orientation.　　There have been several signs in recent years, however, of a quickening of interactions between the UN and Asia. First, the end of the cold war broke the superpower deadlock in the Security Council, conjured up new confidence about the organization’s place in international relations and was followed by the establishment of two of the UN’s largest and most complex peace operations, in Cambodia and East Timor.　　Second, the emergence of new and interconnected5 security threats in the region, including infectious diseases, resource scarcity, environmental catastrophes such as the 2004 tsunami, trafficking in drugs and people, and state failure, has demonstrated the advantages of international cooperation. As these threats escalate, so will the work of the UN and its agencies.　　Third, as the focus of international power moves towards them6, Asian states are stepping up their engagement with the world body. The top five contributors of peacekeeping personnel are all from the UN’s Asian regional group. Both Japan and India remain intent on permanent membership of the Security Council. Most striking of all is China’s increasingly practical behavior in New York. China was once poorly represented, defensive in the Council and uninterested in peacekeeping: now it is ably represented, confident and skillful in the chamber8 and before the media, and deploys more peacekeeping personnel than any other permanent member.
参考答案和解析
正确答案：
【参考译文】
亚洲地区和联合国(这个国际组织)之间总是存在某种历史距离。(位于纽约的)联合国的大部分精力都放在中东和非洲,而不是亚洲。联合国在结构上,有时甚至在取向上,是大西洋主义的。
然而,近几年来有些迹象表明,联合国与亚洲的联系在加速。第一个迹象是,冷战的结束打破了安理会内部超级大国间的僵局,人们对联合国在国际关系中的地位重拾信心,随后联合国在柬埔寨和东帝汶实施了两次规模最大和最复杂的维和行动。
第二个迹象是,亚洲地区出现的各种新的安全威胁(包括传染性疾病、资源匮乏、环境灾难,如2004年的海啸、贩卖毒品、非法移民以及国家崩溃)不是孤立的,这已经显示出国际合作的好处。随着这些威胁的不断升级,联合国及其机构的工作也将不断升级。
第三个迹象是,随着国际力量的重心向联合国机构转移,亚洲国家正在积极参与联合国的行动。提供维和人员最多的五个国家都来自联合国亚洲成员国。日本和印度都一直想成为安理会常任理事国。给人印象最深的是中国在联合国纽约总部的做法越来越讲究实际。中国过去对很多活动参与不多,在安理会采取防御姿态,对维和行动不感兴趣。现在中国积极参与各项活动,在安理会上、在媒体面前充满自信、应对自如,派遣的维和人员超过其他任何一个常任理事国。

Spacing in Animals
1. Any observant person has noticed that a wild animal will allow a man or other potential enemy to approach only up to a given distance before it flees.“Flight distance”is the terms used for this interspecies spacing. As a general rule,there is a positive relationship between the size of an ani-mal and its flight distance-the larger the animal,the greater the distance it must keep between itself and the enemy.An antelope will flee when the enemy is as much as five hundred yards a-way .The wall lizard's flight distance,on the other hand,is about six feet. Flight is the basic means of survival for mobile creatures.
2. Critical distance apparently is present wherever and whenever there is a flight reaction.“Criti-cal distance”includes the narrow zone separating flight distance from attack distance.A lion in a zoo will flee from an approaching man until it meets a barrier that it cannot overcome.If the man continues the approach,he soon penetrates the lion's critical distance,at which point the cor-nered lion reverses direction and begins slowly to stalk the man.
3 .Social animals need to stay in touch with each other. Loss of contact with the group can be fatal for a variety of reasons including exposure to enemies.Social distance is not simply the dis- tance at which an animal will lose contact with his group-that is,the distance at which it can no longer see,hear,or smell the group-it is rather a psychological distance,one at which the animal apparently begins to feel anxious when he exceeds its limits.We can think of it as a hidden band that contains the group.
4. Social distance varies from species to species.It is quite short-apparently only a few yardsamong some animals,and quite long among others.
5. Social distance is not always rigidly fixed but is determined in part by the situation.When the young of apes and humans are mobile but not yet under control of the mother's voice,social distance may be the length of her reach.This is readily observed among the baboons in a zoo.When the baby approaches a certain point,the mother reaches out to seize the end of its tail and pull it back to her. When added control is needed because of danger,social distance shrinks.To show this in man,one has only to watch a family with a number of small children holding hands as they cross a busy street.

If an animal's critical distance is penetrated,it will______.
A: differs among animal species
B: to psychological distance
C: begin to attack
D: to physiological distance
E: distance between an animal and its enemy before fleeing
F: distance between certain animal species before fleeing

答案：C
解析：
“‘Flight distance' is the terms used for this interspecies spacing.”“逃离距离”是用来描述物种间的这种间隔距离的术语。


这一段一开头就提到，危险距离指的是逃离距离和进攻距离之间的狭窄区域。


这段讲的就是动物间的社会距离的概念及其重要性。


这一段第一句话就提到“社会距离不是不变的，而是部分取决于环境的。”


答案可以从第一段找到，最符合原文对flight distance下的定义。


“…at which point the cornered lion reverses direction and begins slowly to stalk the man.”这时走投无路的狮子调转过头来，开始慢慢地前进，接近人。所以当动物危险距离被入侵时，动物开始攻击。


根据文章，社会距离指心理距离。原句：…it is rather a psychological distance.


动物间的社会距离不同。文中原句为：Social distance varies from species to species.

第5题：

__________conscious of her moral obligations as a citizen.

A．Marsha was and always will be
B．Marsha has to be and always will be
C．Marsha had been and will always be
D．Marsha has been and will always be

答案：D
解析：
考查动词时态。四个选项中都有连词and连接两个时态，因此前后时态必须相互搭配，只有D项的前后两种时态搭配。连词前面用现在完成时态，后面用一般将来时态，表示从过去开始一直持续到现在并将延续到将来的一种状态。be conscious of意为“意识到”。句意为“Marsha一直记得而且也将永远记得她作为一名公民所应有的道德责任”。
