The fast development cannot being undertaking without drawing any attention or attack.6.Susceptible to economic booms and bustsEconomic bubbleUnemployed adultsAcute setbacksLesson Three China finds western ways bring news woes1. The writer thinks that the best way to appreciate how much changed in China has is to examine the people themselves: what they eat and drink now and how dangerously overweight more than one-fifth of adults are.2. Traditional Chinese lifestyle emphasizes restraint while the Western lifestyle emphasizes indulgence. The change from Traditional lifestyle to Western indulgence will affect public health strongly: deaths fromdiet-related illnesses are expected to increase 10 times faster than population growth. And the increase in health care costs could slow down the economic development.3. Less exercise and more fat in the diet. Because people have more money than before.4. YES.

Unhealthy eating and drinking may cause diseases like heart attack, stroke and adult-onset diabetes, and the government will have to spend more money to treat these diseases.Lesson four 保护名胜古迹刻不容缓1.What activities are harming ancient Buddhist grottoes?Too many tourists and their breathing are harming them.2.Who turned the caves into the painted shrines?It was the travelers along the old silk road.3.Are murals in good shape.No, they are not in good shape. Many of them are already sagging or peeling from walls, and their delicate beauty is fading away. Others have deteriorated beyond repair efforts.4.Why is it difficult for the authorities to prevent them from being destroyed?Money is at the root of the problem. China is a poor nation. Local governments have little money left over for cultural conservation.5.Does the Chinese government value the preservation of those historical and cultural sites?Yes, it does. For instance, it has given award to the Getty Conservation Institute for its contributions to the preservation of them at Dunhuang.6.Why did Mr. Neville Agn ew say “ tourism and conservation are good partners”?If you can make a good connection, they are. In other words, if you can allocate part of the money earned from tourism to conservation, and don’t turn to tourism as a cash cow, they will be good partners.Lesson five The evolution wars1. in the late fall. This is a challenge to Darwin’s theory which is widely regarded as one of the best-supported ideas in science since it comes from decades of study and objective evidence. Till now Darwin’s theory is the only explanation for the rich variety of life forms on Earth, so scientists fell horrible.2. Bush supports the idea of introducing both evolutionism and intelligent design in biology class. His attitude will further provoke battles on the topic and even bring more political and competitive pressure on science.3. NO. Because Darwin’s theory has conflicted with people’s religious convictions. The “monkey trial” was a famous case, in which Tennessee school teacher was convicted of violating the ban of teaching evolution in 1925. That was a big war between creationism and evolutionism.4. Living things are too exquisitely complex to have evolved by a combination of chance mutations and natural selection. Some pieces in the fossil record that may prove the evolution process are missing.5. NO. The earlier anti-Darwinists, mostly creationists, regarded evolution as a heresy and they openly claimed the role of God. But the proponents of intelligent design accept some role of evolution and they avoid bringing God into the discussion.6. They think the intelligent design is faith-based, so the debate about evolution is not a real scientific argument.7. Because it is difficult for people to argue over such benign and earnest language. This can even make people feel the theory a scientific one and avoid violation against the Constitution.8. 开放性问题。
