听力原文： President George W. Bush insisted the Iraq war could still be won and dismissed

mounting calls for a change in strategy as US lawmakers voted again for troop withdrawals.

Bush struck a defiant tone Thursday, insisting on his authority to run the war despite a report from his ad- ministration showing the Iraqi government was making only paltry progress and growing anxiety over the war from fellow Republicans.

Bush frequently invoked Al-Qaeda, warning the withdrawal of 160,000 US troops in the country would mean "surrendering the future of Iraq to Al-Qaeda."

The House of Representatives answered Bush with a vote to withdraw most combat troops by April, as Democratic leaders blasted the president's handling of the war. The House voted by 223 votes to 201 to pass the measure, but the Republican coalition stayed intact: only four party members voted with the Democrats.

What is Bush's reaction towards US troop withdrals ？

A．Support.

B．Objection.

C．Neutrality.

D．Unclear.

听力原文： George W. Bush on Friday presented to Congress a letter formally requesting an e

xtension to the Normal Trade Relations(NTR) status to China for another year.

In a letter to House and Senate leaders, Bush said that trade with China has benefited both American businesses, which boosted exports to China by 24 pen: em last year, and American farmers, who exported to China more than US $ 3 billion worth of farm produts in the same period.

"Trade is in the interest of American consumers, especially those who live from paycheck to paycheck and depend on inexpensive goods, from China to enhance their quality of life, "Bush said.

He said that the normal trade status requested for China is what "virtually every other country in the world" now en-joys.

"Fair trade is essential not only to improve living standards for Americans, but also for a strong and productive relationship with China," he said.

Bush said that the United States has a huge stake in the emergence of" an economically open, politically stable and secure China", and "not only do we need to speak frankly and directly about our differences, but we also need to maintain dialogue and co-operation with one another in those areas where we have common interests."

Last year, Congress passed Legislation granting China permanent Normal Trade Relations (PNTR) as soon as the country enters the World Trade Organization, abandoning what China had seen as the unfair practice of annual review by the US Legislature over its trade status.

The PNTR legislation, however, has not yet come into effect since China is still negociating its access to the globel trading block. Therefore, the annual review will continue on the Capital Hill this year.

When did George W. Bush present a letter to Congress？

A．Friday.

B．Thursday.

C．Tuesday.

D．Monday.

听力原文： The White House on Wednesday is expected to project a U.S. budget deficit for th

is year of just over $ 200 billion, down from prior estimates because of strong tax receipts, Republican sources said.

A deficit for fiscal 2007 in that range would mark a decline from the $ 248 billion gap recorded last year. When President George W. Bush sent Congress his annual budget in February, he forecast that this year' s deficit would decrease only slightly to $ 244 billion.

But robust tax collections this spring, bolstered by bigger paychecks for individuals and capital gains from a strong stock market, has brought down deficits faster than anticipated, even as the Iraq war has contributed to hefty spending increases in recent years.

What is the deficit for fiscal 2006？

A．Over $ 200 billion.

B．$ 248 billion.

C．$ 244 billion.

D．Not mentioned.
