Fairy Tales for All the World
This year, the world is marking the 200th anniversary of Danish author Hans Christian Andersen with a wide range of events．
Andersen's tales have attracted millions of readers for more than a century．They continue to be among the best-known works of world literature．"The Ugly Duckling(小鸭)"and" The Little Mermaid(美人鱼)"are among the most famous．
He was born on April 2,1 805，in the slums of Odense，Denmark．His father was a shoemaker and his mother Worked as a washer—woman．Andersen received very little education．But his fascination with fairy tales inspired him to compose his own stories and arrange puppet(木偶)shows。
His father died when he was 11．He was forced to go to work．first as an apprentice to a weaver and tailor and then in a tobacco factory．At the age of l 4，he moved to Copenhagen to try a career as a singer, dancer and actor．He sang in a boy's choir(合唱团), but he made very little money．He also tried the ballet，but his awkwardness made this impassible
Finally when he was 17，Jonas Collin，a director of the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen discovered Andersen．After hearing Andersen read a play, Collin realized that he had talent．And he got money from the king for Andersen's education．
In 1828, Andersen passed the entrance examinations to the university In Copenhagen．His Writings were first published in l 829．In．1 833，he received grant money for travel，which he used to visit, Germany, France，Switzerland，and Italy．These journeys were recorded in his travelogues(旅行见闻)．In l 835，Andersen published" Fairy Tales for Children，"which contained four short stories．He eventually wrote around 168 fairy tales．They achieved success, in his life—time and were widely published and translated．
Unhappiness also found its way into many of his tales which were not meant merely for children but for adults．He used very simple language and style. to disguise the moral teachings of his tales
Andersen also wrote novels、plays and poems．He died at his home in Rolighed on August4，1875.

SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文：L--Liu Feifei, host of Dialogue on CCTV--9
R--Alistair Richards, Chief Operating Officer of Guinness World Records
L: Welcome to our show. Let's begin with the story of Guinness World Records. How did this Records come into being？
R: The Guinness World Records book came into being about fifty years ago. In 1951, Sir Hugh Beaver, the managing director of the then Guinness Brewery was out doing some shooting of birds in his great country estate in Ireland. He went into an argument with one of his friends as to what was the fastest game bird in Europe. And later he decided that there should be some book of statistics which would stop this type of argument. He approached two statisticians and writers, the McWhirter twins, Norris and Ross McWhirter, and their office in central London, and asked them to develop the first Guinness World Records book, which they duly did.
L: That's funny. I mean, is that kind of related to the British personality that they like to talk about fine points and argue to a certain point where they need to verify the information with some statistical background？
R: I don't know if it's British but you're probably fight. I think it's true to some degree of the male mind. For example, I think lots of boys and men love statistics and love competition and love comparisons. I mean it's grown out a bit more since then. The book is sold in a hundred countries around the world. We do about three million books a year. So it seems to have connected with something that all types of people can relate to.
L: Back in the 1950s, how long did it take for the first Records book to be put together？
R: I think he put it together pretty quickly, between probably eight months and two years.
L: How was he able to mass all this statistical information？
R: At the time he used it from the existing material. So what he did was put together the most comprehensive in terms of the most categories covered. He put together the ultimate facts--the highest, the lowest, the shortest, the fastest in as many different categories as he could. And he would have used the books that were published. They did the research, just the two of them, Norris McWhirter and Ross McWhirter.
L: How many different categories are there in your book today？
R: There are about fourteen or fifteen categories.
L: Are there sub-categories within the main categories？
R: There are. I mean you could talk about the human body. And we may talk about the most pierced women, for example, which in fact is 1,903. I met the Brazilian lady about three weeks ago. She now runs a Brazilian restaurant in Edinburgh, Scotland. So there are those types of records and there are records about weight, records about strength and endurance, So each category is quite broad in terms of the number of different records that could fall underneath it.
L: You seem to suggest that those people are after fame or publicity. But tangibly--does this lead to wealth？
R: In some instances. What somebody could be good at doing to get a Guinness World Record is good enough for them to, perhaps, travel around the world doing it in exhibitions. Guinness World Records also makes TV programs in about ten countries and we sell TV programs in 76 countries around the world. So some- times people who get in the book can also get on the TV show. What happens is that if another TV program sees an individual who has got a Guinness World Record on our TV show, they might want to put him on their TV show. And it can sort of build from there. So they can become famous. It's not the primary purpose for which we put the book together. Bu
A．Guinness developed it by himself.
B．Sir Hugh Beaver first asked Mcwhirter twins to develop it.
C．It first developed in Ireland
D．Somebody called Guinness developed it.

Landmines
Worldwide there a，re estimated to be l 20 million landmines(地雷)spread through 62 countries．_________(46)The United Nations is currently involved in I 4’mine—clearing operations around the world but it estimates that，at current rate，it will take 1，000 years to remove all the world’s landmines．
Landmines are a favorable weapon because they cost SO little to produce——about 3 pounds per mine。_________ (47)
Landmines cause the death or injury of 70 people a day，of whom most are civilians．
_________ (48)In fact，about half the landmines active today lie in unmarked fields．In countries no longer in conflict．
And landmines do not only kill and maim(使残废)：they also hold back economic development．In Afghanistan，for example，where the former Soviet Army laid down art estimated ten million landmines，more than half of the land which could be cultivated for agriculture is useless because it is SO heavily mined．According to Eileen maybin of the charity Christian Aid，mines also condemn people to relying on overseas aid—aid which is often provided by governments which provided the landmines in the first place：
“_________ (49)Because there are landmines on agricultural land，people are actually dependent on food aid．This is one of the ironies of the situation——that governments are providing money for food aid when，if the mines were cleared，people would be able to feed themselves．”
Forty-nine countries have SO far signed, the United Nations Inhumane Weapons Convention which restricts the manufacture and export of landmines_________(50)But some signatories(签约国)of the UN Convention，such as the UK，continue to support the manufacture and export of these weapons。The British Government says that it won’t support a complete ban because it considers the landmine a legitimate(合法的)militia’s weapon if it is used responsibly．
A．A further 19 countries，including the USA，France，Germany and Japan，have banned all exports of landmines completely．
B．However, the cost of locating and removing them is high—between 300 pounds and 700 pounds per mine．
C．A recent UN gathering of world leaders in Vienna，Austria。failed to secure a complete ban on the manufacture and sale of landmines．
D．And every year, for every 100，000 mines removed，another two million are put down
E．Landmines are actually destroying the social fabric and economic independence of countries．
F．And many of the casualties occur in countries where war has long since ended．
第 46 题 请选择（1）处最佳答案。
根据以下内容回答题：
Each nation has its own peculiar character which distinguishes it from others．But the peo-pies of the world have more points in common than points in which they differ．One type of per-son that is common in evcry country is the one who always tries to do as littl．e as possible and to get as much as possible in return．His opposite，the man who is in the habit of doing more than is strictly necessary and who is ready to accept what is offered in return，is rare everywhere．
Both these tyDes are usually unconscious of their character．The man who avoids effort is always talking about his“rights”：he appears to think that society owes him a pleasant，easy life．The man who tries to do as little as he Call is always full of excuses：if he has neglected to do something，it was because he had a headache，or the weather was too hot——or too cold——or because he was prevented by bad luck．At first，other people，such as his friends and his em-ployer，generously accept his stories；but soon they realize what kind of person he is．In the long run he deceives only himself．When his friends become cool towards him and he fails to make progress in his job，he is surprised and hurt．He blames everyone and everything except himseIf．He feels that society is failing in its duties towards him，and that he is being unjustly treated．

A
A greenhouse is a building made of glass which is used for keeping plants warm when the outside temperature is how．In a similar way there are several gases in the atmosphere which trap(捕捉)the heat produced by the sun and prevent it from escaping．These gases are known as“greenhouse gases“，and the way in which they trap heat in the atmosphere is called the “greenhouse effect”．This is not simply air pollution．Most of the main greenhouse gases exist naturally in small amounts in our atmosphere．And without them earth would be 30 degrees colder and human life would not exist．In other words，the greenhouse effect is a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us．
The problem is that in the last century and a half．we have been putting too many 0f these gases into the earth’s atmosphere by burning large quantities of coal and oil and by cutting down forests．The rapid increase in greenhouse gases is making the world warmer．The world&39;s temperature has already gone up by half a degree this century，and the sea level has risen by lo centimetres．If the amount of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)in the atmosphere doubles，there will probably be a rise in the earth’s temperature of between l and 4 degrees．This may seem a small in—crease，but it would be enough to cause major changes in geography and agriculture．Large areas of the world would be flooded．and some areas would become dry and unable to produce crops．It is important，too，to consider that there may be a delay of about 30 years in the greenhouse effect．This means that we’re probably experiencing only now the effect of the gases put into the atmosphere before the l960s．Since then，our use of these gases has greatly increased.
“Greenhouse effect”means________．
A.a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us
B.the way in which gases are used for keeping plants warm
C.the way“greenhouse gases”trap heat on the earth
D.the whole course in which greenhouse gases prevent heat
