In one very long sentence, the introduction to the U.N. Chapter expresses the ideals and the common aims of all the peoples whose governments joined together to form the U.N.
"We the peoples of the U.N. determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our life time has brought untold suffering to mankind, and to reaffirm faith in fundamental rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, and to establish conditions under which justice and respect for the obligations arising from treaties and other sources of international law can be mentioned, and to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom, and for these ends, to practise tolerance and live together in peace with one another as good neighbors, and to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security, and to ensure, by the acceptance of principles and the institution of methods, that armed force shall not be used, save in the common interest, and to employ international machinery for the promotion of economic and social advancement of all peoples, have resolved to combine our efforts to accomplish these aims."
The name "United Nations" is accredited to U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the first group of representatives of member states met and signed a declaration of common intent on New Year’s Day in 1942. Representatives of five powers worked together to draw up proposals, completed at Dumbarton Oaks in 1944. These proposals, modified after deliberation at the conference of International Organization in San Francisco which began in April 1945, were finally agreed on and signed as the U.N. Charter by 50 countries on 26 June 1945. Poland, not represented at the conference, signed the Charter later and was added to the list of original members. It was not until that autumn, however, after the Charter had been ratified by China, France, the U.S.S.R., the U. K. and the U.S. and by a majority of the other participants that U.N. officially came into existence. The date was 24 October, now universally celebrated as United Nations’ Day.
The essential functions of the U.N. are to maintain international peace and security, to develop friendly relations among nations, to cooperate internationally in solving international economic, social, cultural and human problems, promoting respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms and to be a centre for coordinating the actions of nations in attaining these common ends.
No country takes precedence over another in the U.N. Each member’s rights and obligations are the same. All must contribute to peaceful settlement of international disputes, and members have pledged to refrain from the threat or use of force against other states. Though the U.N. has no right to intervene in any state’s internal affairs, it tries to ensure that non-member states act according to its principles of international peace and security. U.N. member must offer every assistance in an approved U.N. action and in no way assist states against which the U.N. is taking preventive or enforcement action.
选项
A、to supervise peace and treaties
B、to revise international laws
C、to prevent a third world war
D、to assist the "third world" countries
答案
C
解析
此题为语义推理题,考查考生的概括能力。题目问的是联合国宗旨的首条内容是什么,文章第二段所阐述的均为联合国宗旨,首要—条是"We the peoples of the U.N.determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war,which twice in our life time has brought untold suffering to mankind,..."(我们这些联合国的成员决心将我们的后代从战争的灾难中解救出来,在我们的一生中,这样的战争已经两次给人类带来了数不尽的痛苦。)句中所说的给人类带来数不尽的痛苦的战争即为第一次世界大战和第二次世界大战,因此C正确。A、B和D虽也是属联合国宗旨,但非首条,与题目不符,故舍弃。
