Politicians also got aboard. “There is a direct relationship，” US Congressman Neal Smith said, “between the amount of sodium(钠) a person consumes and heart disease, circulatory(循环的) disorders, stroke and even early death.”Frightening, if true! But many doctors and medical researchers are now beginning to feel the salt scare has gone too far. “All these remarks and cry about salt is unnecessary，” Dr Dustan insists. “For most of us it probably does not make much difference how much salt we eat.”Dustan's most recent short-term study of 150 people showed that those with normal blood pressure experienced no change at all when placed on an extremely low-salt diet, or later when salt was reintroduced. Of the hypertensive(高血压的) patients, however, half of those on the low-salt diet did experience a drop in blood pressure, which returned to previous level when salt was reintroduced.“An adequate to somewhat excessive(过度的) salt intake has probably saved many more lives than it has cost in the general population，” said Dr John H Laragh. “So an opinion that the whole population should avoid salt makes no sense.”Medical experts agree that everyone should practise reasonable “moderation(节制)”in salt consumption. For the average person, a moderate amount might run from four to ten grams a day, or roughly 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoon. One to two grams of salt would come from the natural sodium in food. The rest would be added in processing, preparation or at the table.“Na is not your enemy，” says Comek's Dr Laragh. “Salt is the No.1 natural component of all human tissue, and the idea that you do not need it is wrong. Unless your doctor has proved that you have a salt-related health problem, there is no reason to give it up.”1．From Dr Dustan's study in Paragraph 2 we can infer that ________.A．a low-salt diet may be good to some patientsB．the amount of salt intake has nothing to do with one's blood pressureC．the reduction of salt intake can completely cure a hypertensive patientD．an extremely low-salt diet makes no difference to anyone2．In the 3rd paragraph, Dr Laragh implied that ________.A．people should not be afraid of taking much excessive saltB．doctors should not advise people to avoid saltC．an adequate to somewhat excessive salt intake is suggested to sick peopleD．excessive salt intake has killed some patients in the general population3．What is the experts' advice for average people on salt consumption?A．They should increase salt intake through sodium pills.B．They should avoid salt as often as possible.C．They should consume 1/2 to 1/3 teaspoon of salt a day.D．They needn't care about how much salt they consume.4．What is the main idea of the passage?A．The salt scare is not reasonable.B．The cause of hypertension is disclosed.C．The moderate use of salt is recommended.D．Salt consumption is to be avoided.Ⅲ. 完形填空I was late, as usual.

People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people´s minds I wouldn´t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However, strangely enough, I´m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.Since I began writing blogs, I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base, and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.In her successful blog post titled “The job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have”, author Jenny Surane states,“Pri nt is an expensive product to love. And general managers, publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers´heads.” She goes on to state that people don´t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll(滚屏) through their Twitter feed, and get news from many different sources.If print is dying, then a new form of communicating information is being born. The need for information has not died. If anything, it has increased. What has died, rather, is the way in which information is presented.Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources, if it chooses to.Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of communicating information to people, grim as well? Definitely not.1. According to Paragraph 2, the author feels .A.confident about the future of his careerB.worried about the future of printC.tired of being a newspaper journalistD.embarrassed about online writing2. What information is conveyed in Jenny´s blog post?A.Twitter is not very popular.B.It is hard to manage online journalism.C.Print still has its own advantages.D.People have more options to get information.3. What does the underlined word “grim” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Promising.B.Depressing.C.Unforgiving.D.Encouraging.4. What is the author´s purpose in writing the text?A.To explore the future of journalism.B.To analyse the cause of print decline.C.To explain the bright future of a journalist.D.To introduce a successful blog post about print.Ⅲ. 完形填空One academically excellent young person went to apply for a position in an international company.

NASA researchers have 21 90 ducks into holes in Greenland's fastest moving glacier, the Jakobshavn Glacier between Greenland and Canada.

Scientists are still 25 about why glaciers speed up in summer and head towards the sea. One theory is that as the summer sun melts ice on top of the glacier’s surface, the water moves to the bottom of the glacier, where it helps to 26 the movement of ice towards the coast.

reporter who works when called upon.A fire might break out in one part of town.An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.Reporters often work with photographers，or photojournalists.Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate（图解）the stories in a newspaper.They have to edit t heir pictures in time for them to appear with the story.A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge rge newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.A paper may have a correspondent who covers just med ical news.An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office.Editors prepare the reporters' stories to be printed in the paper.They decide which story is the most important and gets the frontpage headline.They decide which pictures to use.Editors do not often write the news，but they do write editorials（社论）in which they state their views

the ability to discover newsD．often write editorials for their paper39．The passage is mainly written to ______.A．introduce different posts and duties of journalistsB．describe the characters of journalistsC．explain how the news is collectedD．show how reporters workBNewspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.Most people don't take time to read real news.They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough，perhaps they will go on to read the front page.However，they may read the headlines，but that is all，then they turn to the sports page，or comics，or advertisements.It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more.They say they get the news on television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you？Do you read news from a newspaper？Do you think it is easier to get news from television？Or do you care about news at all？Would you mind if there were no news?40．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is ______.A．the front pageB．the sports pageC．the headlinesD．the classified

The attack was not a natural action for food, but a kind of response when the two sharks swam too close to the great white. The great white didn't attacked other fellows, but the officials had to move other soupfin sharks to another tank(贮水池)for their safety.These attacks had given rise to calls for the freedom of the 88-pound, 5-foot-3- inch shark. The aquarium housed the shark in a huge tank. However, according to experts, the tank was not big enough for the shark. Its nose was bloody from striking the glass of the aquarium. Great white sharks in the wild had a big amount of migration, sometimes traveling 50 miles a day. Because the shark was still young, there was possibility of his growing. As it grows, it can became more troubled in the limited space.Aquarium officials said that keeping the shark in the aquarium allowed them to study their behavior that they cannot study with free great white sharks. When they studied behavioral patterns, scientists believed that they can help great white sharks in the wild.Since the shark had been on display, the number of people who visited aquarium increased greatly. Theone-year-old shark was the longest surviving great white living here. It had been at the Monterey Bay Aquarium for six months. Other great whites did not survive for longer than 16 days in the aquarium.（1）A great white shark's attacking two soupfin sharks is directly because of .A. the hunger of the great white sharkB. the limited space of the aquariumC. their close touch with each otherD. the fighting between them for food（2）The underlined word "migration" in Paragraph 2 probably means " ".A. powerB. foodC. growthD. movement（3）If the great white shark still stays in the aquarium, it will probably .A. cause more troubleB. attack the visitorsC. stop growing upD. hurt itself often（4）According to aquarium officials, we can learn that .A. the great white shark can live longer in the aquariumB. the great white shark will be set free back to the sealC. the great white sharks in the wild are in great dangerD. the great white shark will have to stay in the aquariumBStudents from Florida International University in Miami walked on water Thursday for a class assignment. To do it, they wore aquatic (水上的) shoes they designed and created.Alex Quinones was the first to make it to the other side of a 175-foot lake on campus in record time—just over a minute. Quinones, who wore big boat-like shoes, also won last year and will receive $500.Students had to wear the aquatic shoes and make it across the lake in order to earn an “A” on t he assignment for a special course. “It's traditional in a school of architecture to do boats out of cardboard (硬纸板) for a boat race. I thought our students were a little bit more special than that,” Canaves said. “We decided to do the walk on water event to take it to the next level.”A total of 79 students competed in the race this year in 41 teams. Only 10 teams failed to cross the lake. Others who fell got back up and made it to the end. The race is open to all students and anyone in the neighborhood. The youngest person to ever took part was a 9-year-old girl who competed in place of her mother, while the oldest was a 67-year-old woman. A large crowd on campus joined Canaves as he cheered on the racers. He shouted encouraging words, but also laughed as some unsteadily made their way to the end.“A part of this is for them to have more understanding of designing and make it work better,” he said. It is also a lesson in life for the students.“Anything, including walking on water, is possible, if you do the research, test it and go through the design process seriously.（1）What can we learn about Alex Quinones?A. He finished the race in less than a minute.B. He won the race with the help of 2 boats.C. He failed the race last year.D. He set a new record this year.（2）For what purpose did the students join in the race?A. To go across the lake to school.B. To test their balance on the water.C. To earn a good grade for a course.D. To win the prize money of $500.（3）What can we learn according to the fourth paragraph?A. More than 20 teams failed to cross the lake.B. The students who fell into the water had to quit.C. The students kept silent when the other racers competed.D. The youngest competitor competed instead of her mother.（4）According to Canaves, this race can help the students ________.A. understand designing betterB. achieve almost everythingC. work together and unite as oneD. walk on the surface of water四、书面表达假设你是李华，英国一所友好学校准备与你们学校共同创办一份中学生英文报纸，Mr Smith来信询问，并请你回信，要求如下：①表示赞成。

Unit 4 Making the news单元检测Ⅰ.阅读理解AHave you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating (冬眠). It's too bad that humans can't hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold, people all over France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end.In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio's The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial (人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as "first sleep", which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours' uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as "The Watch". It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.According to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia (失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness aroundtheir sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon manyof his new ideas.Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn't help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night's continuous sleep, which sounds natural; however, according to Warren's theory, it is really the opposite of what we need.1. The example of the French peasants shows the fact that ___________.A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleepB. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habitsC. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weatherD. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end2. The late night was called "The Watch" because it was a time for people __________.A. to set traps to catch animalsB. to wake up their family and neighboursC. to remind others of the timeD. to guard against possible dangers3. What does the author advise people to do?A. Sleep in the way animals do.B. Consult a doctor if they can't sleep.C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.4. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To give a prescription for insomnia.B. To urge people to sleep less.C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.D. To throw new light on human sleep.BMike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years. He bounced around from one position to another, never sure when his last day would be. Sometimes, he lost a position with less than a day's notice. This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late, Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationshipwith employers. But because Miles had a criminal record, he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.It wasn't until October 2015, nearly a decade after his release from prison, that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company, a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison. Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future, Miles submitted an application. He got an interview, and he then began a new job.Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster, where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%. This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO. Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later, a career in technology. He co-founded four tech companies, one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did. He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college degree. Lancaster produces products like bread. Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however, at just 16 full-time employees, including administration and owners, it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone, including ex-offenders. Dan Jurman, who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty, believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen. "None of us can handle these issues alone, " he said.5. The purpose of the first paragraph is to show __________ .A. a man's difficulty in living a stable lifeB. an increasingly competitive workplaceC. a decrease in employment opportunitiesD. the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded6. What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. Annoyed.B. Discouraged.C. Amused.D. Embarrassed.7. What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?A. Outgoing, kind and considerate.B. Wealthy but a little bit greedy.C. Humorous, diligent and ambitious.D. Successful and socially responsible.8. In Dan Jurman's opinion, what is the biggest achievement of Lancaster Food Company?A. It greatly increases employment opportunities.B. It suggests an idea for fighting poverty.C. It provides a way to handle ex-offenders.D. It creates a stable environment for people.Ⅱ.完形填空阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

create newspapers.They are known as journalists.Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news.They attend meetings.They cover events such as court cases，plays，and sporting events.They interview people to get their views about what is going on.Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline.People do not want to read old news.They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens.Reporters sometimes phone or email their notes and quotations（引用语）to the paper from the scene.A reporter in the office then writes the story.A “stringer” is a part time reporter who works when called upon.A fire might break out in one part of town.An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story.Reporters often work with photographers，or photojournalists.Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate（图解）the stories in a newspaper.They have to edit their pictures in time for them to appear with the story.A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge rge newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there.A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news.An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office.Editors prepare the reporters' stories to be printed in the paper.They decide which story is the most important and gets the frontpage headline.They decide which pictures to use.Editors do not often write the news，but they do write editorials（社论）in which they state their views on a topic or an issue.People who work as journalists have some things in common.They are curious，they like to write，and they have a “nose for news”．They can spot news as it happens.They know what people want to read about.36．The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.A．readers B．journalistsC．reporters D．stringers37．A journalist working abroad to report news may be called ______.A．a stringer B．a photojournalistC．an editor D．a correspondent38．According to the passage，both the reporter and the editor ______.A．usually work in the officeB．decide which pictures to useC．have the ability to discover newsD．often write editorials for their paper39．The passage is mainly written to ______.A．introduce different posts and duties of journalistsB．describe the characters of journalistsC．explain how the news is collectedD．show how reporters workBNewspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.Most people don't take time to read real news.They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough，perhaps they will go on to read the front page.However，they may read theheadlines，but that is all，then they turn to the sports page，or comics，or advertisements.It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more.They say they get the news on television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you？Do you read news from a newspaper？Do you think it is easier to get news from television？Or do you care about news at all？Would you mind if there were no news?40．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is ______.A．the front pageB．the sports pageC．the headlinesD．the classified advertisements41．According to the author，which of the following newspapers will most probably attract the reader's attention?A．The ones with interesting pictures and exciting headlines on the front page.B．The ones with sports news on the front page.C．The ones with classified ads on the front page.D．The ones with gossip columns on the front page.42．According to the passage，most people read all of the following EXCEPT ______.A．the sports page B．comicsC．advertisements D．real news43．The author's attitude toward newspapers is ______.A．sympathetic B．criticalC．negative D．undeterminedCDiscoverNews

At first I had no idea how to answer because I knew 19 about stage design! But I slowly began to respond to her 20 . It was cause and effect: She believed I had opinions, so I began to 21 them. She trusted me to complete things, so I completed them perfectly. She loved how 22 I was, so I began to show up to paint more and more. She believed in me, so I began to believe in myself.Mrs. Neidl's 23 that year was, “Try it. We can always paint over it 24 !”I began to take 25 . I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing—only things to be 26 upon.I learned to dip my brush into the paint and 27 create something.The shy, quiet freshman achieved success that year.

In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume （简历）and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues （问题）, approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He said he has a great assignment （分工）, and you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, where it can be played, and what the budget is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down andinside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists—everyone—is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.36. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative.C. Ambitious.D. Proud.37. What does the reporter want most from hiseditors in their talks?A. Finding the new value of his stories.B. Giving him financial support.C. Helping him to find issues.D. Improving his good ideas.38. Who probably wrote the letter?A. An editor.B. An artist.C. A reporter.D. A reader.39. The letter aims to remind editors that they should__________.A. keep their best reporters at all costsB. give more freedom to their reportersC. be aware of their reporters' professionaldevelopmentD. appreciate their reporters' working styles andattitudesBBrave Frenchman Found Half-way Around theWorld（NEW YORK）A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in Manhattan said he didn’t think twice before diving into the freezing East River.Tuesday’s Daily News said 29-year who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Scaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dive in after him.“I didn’t think at all,”Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier（码头）when he saw something falling into the water. He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. In an instant, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn’t realize his tale of heroism, and had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the next morning.“I don’t really think I’m a hero,”said Duret.“Anyone would do the same thing.”40.

The day when he rescued the girl.B. A couple of days after the girl was rescued.C. The first day when he was in New York.D. The same day when he was interviewed.CWho says Americans worship the almighty dollar？It's not true. Having enough free time is more important to most Americans than being rich, according to a new poll.Only 13 percent of more than 2,400 people questioned in the telephone poll ranked beingwealthy as most important to them, while 67 percent ranked free time as their top priority, higher than having a successful career, getting married, and having children. "Everyone wants free time to do the things they want to do, young, middle-aged or old," said Richard Morin, of the Pew Social & Demographic Trends Project, which conducted the survey. "So our desire to play unites us. "The poll also showed that people who were university educated valued career success over wealth, so did middle-aged people. Not surprisingly, those who didn't have money, ranked wealth very highly. This included minorities, first generation Americans and less educated people. The survey also revealed that a disproportionate（不成比例的）number of people under the age of 30 and retirees in the group made ＄20,000 or less a year. But the emphasis on wealth lessens with age, with younger people putting value on it but hardly any seniors. "It just diminishes with time as the reality sets in that you would never be rich," Morin said. "But also, the reality sets in that you don't have to be rich to lead a very comfortable and fulfilling life. "While wealth was not at the top of people's list of priorities, 43 percent still said it was somewhat important.44. The poll showed that the majority of Americanpeople ranked ________ as the most important.A. wealthB. a successful careerC. marriageD. free time45. Who cares least for wealth, according to thepassage?A. Young people.B. Middle-aged people.C. Old people.D. Well-educated people.46. According to the poll, middle-aged peopleregarded ______ as more important.A. success in careerB. education levelC. wealthD. comfort47. The underlined word "diminishes" in the thirdparagraph probably means __________.A. increasesB. decreasesC. changesD. staysDResearchers, policy makers and activists are busy preparing for the International AIDS Conference. The next conference begins Sunday in Vienna, Austria. On Tuesday, the Obama administration announced its National HIV/AIDS Strategy. The plan aims to reduce new HIV infections by twenty-five percent within five years. It also aims to make sure infected patients get treatment more quickly.HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. The government says sixty-five percent of Americans who discover they are infected get treatment within three months. The new plan calls for increasing that to eighty-five percent. Thirty million dollars from the health care reform law is to go to support prevention activities, including expanded HIV testing.Over one million Americans are living with the virus, out of an estimated thirty-three million people worldwide.Last week, government scientists in the United States announced the discovery of two antibodies （抗体）that raise hopes for an AIDS vaccine（疫苗）. They say these antibodies can stop more than ninety percent of all known strains of HIV. Antibodies are proteins that the body makes to help protect itself against infection. Researchers made the discovery at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The director of its Vaccine Research Center, Gary Nabel, says each antibody blocks the virus from attaching to white blood cells.The UN AIDS agency gives credit to proper measures. It says young people in Africa are waiting longer to have sex. They are also having fewer sexual partners. And they are increasingly using condoms（安全套）. The agency says with the methods HIV rates are falling in sixteen of the twenty-five hardest-hit countries in Africa.48. All of the following about the Obamaadministration’s National HIV Strategy is true EXCEPT __________.A. It aims to cut down the number of newinfections on a large scaleB. It aims to put 65% of infected Americans intothe quick treatment systemC. It ensures the quick treatment of the Americanswho get infectedD. It supports prevention activities, includingexpanded HIV testing49.
