Greed or Greet?
The
earth
has
nurtured
generations
of
human
beings,
offering
us
with
every
resource
to
survive
and
prosper.
Nowadays,
with
the
explosion
of
population
and
boom
of
economy,
human’s
rel
entless
exploitation
of
natural
resources has caused
crisis of exhaustion of energy and resources.
The remark “Earth provides
enough to satisfy every man’s needs, but not
every
man’s
greed.”
gives
out
a
warning
for
us
all.
The
ecosystem
has
remained
balanced
until
man
becomes
obsessed
with
their
ambition
to
conquer
Nature
and
they
are
blinded
by
greed.
On
one
hand,
they
are
so
economy-oriented
that
they
ignore
the
protection
of
environment.
Increasing
pollution not only causes serious
problems such as global warming but also
could
threaten
to
end
human
life
on
our
planet.
On
the
other
hand,
man
exploits
and
abuses
non-renewable
energy
and
resources
for
the
sake
of
developing economy. If man insists on
extracting natural resources recklessly,
it will be too dreadful to face the
consequence.
Let us
remember that only when we shake off greed and
heal the earth can
we build a better
home for ourselves and our future generations.

Passage 1
Would
you trust a robot to park your car? The question
will confront New
Yorkers in February
as the city's first robotic parking opens in
Chinatown.
The technology has been
successfully applied overseas, but the only other
public robotic garage in the United
States has been troublesome, dropping
vehicles and trapping cars because of
technical problems.
Nonetheless, the
developers of the Chinatown garage are confident
with the
technology and are counting on
it to squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building
basement that would otherwise fit only
24, accomplished by removing a
maneuver
space normally required.
A human-shaped
robot won't be stepping into your car to drive it.
Rather, the
garage itself does the
parking. The driver stops the car on a flat
platform and
gets out. The platform is
lowered into the garage, and it is then
transported to a
vacant parking space
by a computer-controlled device similar to an
elevator
that also runs sideways.
There is no human supervision, but an
attendant will be on hand to accept
cash and explain the system to newly
users. Parking rates will be attracted
about $$400 monthly or $$25 per day,
according to Ari Milstein, the director of
planning for Automation Parking
Systems, which is the U.S. subsidiary of a
German company. This company has built
automated garages in several
countries
overseas and in the United States for residents of
a Washington, D.C.
apartment building.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the
passage you have just heard.
26. What
do we learn about the robot parking in the U.S. so
far?
27. What advantage does robotic
parking have according to the developers?
28. What does the attendant do in the
automated garage?
29. What does the
company say about the parking rate?
Passage 2
A
recent study shows that meat consumption is one of
the main ways that
human can damage the
environment, second only to the use of motor
vehicles.
So how can eating meat have a
negative effect on the environment? For a
start, all animals, such as cows, pigs
and sheep, always gas limed methane,
which is the second most common green
house gas after carbon dioxide.
Many
environmental experts now believe that methane is
more responsible for
global warming
than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of
all methane
that released into the
atmosphere coming from farm animals. Another way
in
which meat production affects the
environment is through the use of water and
land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed
to produce one pound of beef. While
20
gallons of water are need to produce one pound of
wheat. One acre of
farmland use to for
raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef. One
acre of
farmland use to for crop
production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes.
Many people now say the benefits of
switching to vegetarian diet which
excludes meat and fish. Not just for
health reasons, but also because it plays a
vital role in protecting the
environment. However, some nutritionists advise
against switching to a totally strict
vegetarian diet. They believe such a diet
which includes no products from animal
sources can be deficient in many of
the
necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need.
