听力原文: ISTANBUL, Turkey—Near-simultaneous explosions hit two Istanbul hotels early Tuesday, killing two people, and another attack unsuccessfully targeted gas tanks at a fuel storage depot. The blasts went off about 1:40 a.m. Seven people were injured in the blasts at two tourist hotels in separate Istanbul neighborhoods. The city's police chief said the blasts were an apparent terrorist attack.
Four Spanish men were injured in one of the hotel blasts and went to hospital but none were in serious condition. The men are friends on holiday in Turkey and were staying at the Hotel Star Holiday which was hit by one of the blasts. Two of the Spaniards were "slightly buried" by the debris after the blasts. One suffered two broken legs; tile other suffered one broken leg. The two other Spaniards had less serious injuries. The Spaniards were being treated in two Istanbul hospitals, named Cerrahpasa and Haseki. The Spanish government did not release their names or ages, at the request of the injured. The Spanish Consul in Istanbul "is taking care of all necessities" for the injured Spaniards and is aiming to bring them back to Spain as soon as possible. An official, in Madrid, said attempts to establish phone contact with the Spanish diplomatic mission in Turkey had been difficult due to saturated phone lines in Turkey.
About the same time, attackers tried to use small explosive devices to detonate large fuel storage tanks at the Demiroren Group facility in Istanbul's Esenyurt neighborhood. The bombs exploded but failed to rapture the fuel tanks. There were no injuries. The first bomb went off about an hour before the hotel explosions, while a second one went off at nearly the same time as the attacks on the hotels.
When did the blasts hit the hotels?
A.At about 1:40 a.m. local time.
B.At about 1:14 a.m. local time.
C.One at about 1:14 a.m., while the other around 2:14 a.m.
D.One at about 1:40 a.m., while the other around 2:40 a.m.
The government managed to host the 2008 Olympics. The general aim is for Beijing to have the same environmental standards as Paris, London or Washington by 2008.
Hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent piping natural gas to the city's homes and taking away dirty coal burning gradually while 60, 000 buses will be changed to liquefied gas.
The money will also be used for relocating the polluting factories and building green belts. By 2008 around 90 percent of Beijing's waste will be treated, compared to only 40 percent at present.
Olympic officials have already announced that around 50 large projects are being dealt with to improve traffic congestion and cut down pollution, They include the construction of Beijing's first light railway, a 40.5-kilometer line which is expected to be completed in 2005.
Beijing, besides, plans to build an 82.25-kilometer-long subway to add to the existing 53 kilometers. Nine major roads will be rebuilt or widened.
Beijing also plans to build a 70-meter-wide green belt among the waterways to protect the water quality as well as to increase the green areas.
The government will spend money piping natural gas to the city's homes in order to ______.
A.reduce the pollution of our capital
B.bring down the cost of daffy life
C.solve the problem of being short of fuel
D.keep up with the development of modem society
If your vessel has a starboard list after taking on fuel, you would transfer fuel _____.
A.to starboard
B.to port
C.forward
D.aft
Which of the precautions listed should be observed when taking on diesel fuel?
A.Secure all lighting to the main deck
B.Provide a portable fan to blow away fumes
C.Prohibit smoking in the area
D.Display a black triangle during daylight hours
The energy industry needs to get more from existing fields while continuing to search for new 41 . Automakers must continue to improve fuel efficiency and perfect hybrid (混合动力的) vehicles. Technological improvements are needed so that wind, solar and hydrogen can be more 42 parts of the energy equation. Governments need to formulate energy policies that promote 43 and environmentally sound development. Consumers must be willing to pay for some of these solutions, while practicing conservation efforts of their own.
Inaction is not an 44 . So let’s work together to balance this equation. We are taking some of the 45 needed to get started, but we need your help to go the rest of the way.
A) consequently
B) cultivate
C) declining
D) derived
E) difficult
F) discovered
G) economically
H) exception
I) feasible
J) growth
K) Option
L) refine
M) reserves
N) soaring
O) steps
The work fuel does in each working cycle can be obtained by taking the _____.
A.precautions
B.rpm
C.indicator cards
D.B and C
A.condensation in the fuel tank
B.a crack in the hull portion of the fuel tank
C.a load of bad fuel
D.contamination from the saltwater flushing system
That industry is based on biotechnology. At the moment, biotech's main uses are in medicine and agriculture. But its biggest long-term impact may be industrial. Here, it will diminish demand for oil by taking the cheapest raw materials imaginable, carbon dioxide and water, and using them to make fuel and plastics.
Plastics and fuels made in this way would have several advantages. They could accurately be called "renewables", since nothing is depleted to make them. They would be part of the natural carbon cycle, borrowing that element from the atmosphere for a few months, and returning it when they were burned or dumped. That means they could not possibly contribute to global warming. And they would be environmentally friendly in other ways. Bioplastics are biodegradable, since bacteria understand their chemistry and can therefore digest them. Biofuels, while not quite "zero emission" from the exhaust pipe (though a lot cleaner than petrol and diesel), would be cleaner overall even than the fuel-cell technology now being touted as an alternative to the internal-combustion engine. That is because making the hydrogen that fuel cells use is not an environmentally friendly process, and never will be—unless it, too, uses biotechnology.
All this will, in the end, depend on costs. But these do not look unfavourable. Already, the price of bioplastics overlaps the top end of the petroleum-based plastics market. Bulk production should bring prices 'down, particularly when the raw materials are free. Meanwhile, ethanol would be a lot easier to introduce than fuel cells. Existing engines will run on it with minor tweaking, so there is no need to change the way ears are made. And since, unlike hydrogen, it is a liquid, the fuel-distribution infrastructure would not need radical change.
The future could be green in ways that traditional environmentalists had not expected. Whether they will embrace that possibility, or stick to sack-cloth, remains to be seen.
According to the author, applying biotechnology to industry
A.has brought about sustainable development.
B.proves to be nothing but an imagination.
C.will deprive most people of modern comforts.
D.contributes to the environmentally sound development.
