Which will reduce climate-related risk and vulnerabilities? [br]
In this section, you will hear five short news items.
Each item will be read only once.
After each item, there will be a fifteen-second pause.
During the pause, read the question and the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer.
Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.
16. The United Nations says reducing risks from weather-related disasters such as floods and droughts can help nations adapt to climate change. The United Nations is urging greater action to reduce climate-related risk and vulnerabilities through measures such as early warning systems. Scientists predict global warming will lead to more intense and frequent extreme weather events, including storms, high rainfalls, floods, droughts and heat waves.
17. South Korea’s parliament is considering a law that would classify online gaming as a potentially antisocial addiction alongside gambling, drugs and alcohol. The bill has won support from parents, religious groups and doctors but has alarmed the Internet industry and enraged gamers. The legislation includes provisions to limit advertising, while a separate bill would take 1% of the gaming industry’s revenue to create a fund to curb addiction. The uproar over the legislation highlights conflicting social and economic priorities in South Korea.
18. The BBC Trust has rejected a complaint about Radio I’s decision to cut down Ding Dong! The 74-year-old song, which first appeared in the soundtrack for the Wizard of Oz film, made a surprise chart entry in April as a form of protest by critics of the late Conservative prime minister. It’s described as an inappropriate “celebration of death”. The BBC Trust’s editorial standards committee rejected the complaint, saying that the song did have the “capacity to cause offence” because it had been widely publicised as a way of giving voice to “anti-Thatcher feelings”.
19. No team has ever retained the Champions League title since the competition was revamped in 1992— but perhaps, finally, this will be the year. Karim Benzema ensured Real Madrid’s place in the last—16 by firing his side to a 1-0 win over Liverpool to make it four wins from four. The winner after Real was made to work hard against a much-changed visiting side. Cristiano Ronaldo, who wasted a number of opportunities, was left frustrated after failing to overturn RauFs Champions League goals record.
20. Kids are plugged in more than ever, through music, movies and the Internet. A New Kaiser Family Foundation survey finds young people use media for an average of 6 hours and 20 minutes every day. Over the course of a week, that is 44 hours and 20 minutes—more than a typical workweek with some overtime. It is more time than they spend on any other activity besides sleeping, including going to school. Other activities paled by comparison. Mum and dad get fewer than 16 hours of quality time with the kids each week. They exercise less than 10 hours a week and do homework for just 7 hours, right near the bottom of the list.

B、Its surprise chart entry has caused anti-Thatcher feelings.
C、It is too old and it has been broadcasted over and over again.
D、It has given rise to many complaints among the British people.
