Unlike some environmental issues, rain forest depletion has fortunately received significant public and media attention. Despite the opposition to the cutting down of rain forests, the problem continues. Every year, Brazil chops down on area of forest the size of the state of Nebraska. In addition to the Amazon's rain forests, many other forests are being cut down as well. In Indonesia, Zaire, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Burme, the Philippines peru, Colombia, Bolivia, and Venezuela, rain forests that were once great have been lost.
According to some estimates, 50 million acres of rain forest are cut down every year. The United Nations says the figure is closer to 17 million acres. The World Wildlife Fund says that every minute, 25 to 50 acres are cut or burned to the ground.
The world's growing population has been a primary reason of rain forest destruction. More people need land to live on and wood products to consume. Limiting population growth may be the first in a series of steps that would limit the destruction of the rain forests.
In the opinion of the author, ______ are being destroyed terribly at present.
A．the oceans
B．the atmosphere
C．the rain forests
D．all the above
Composers today use a wider variety of sounds than ever before, including many
that were once considered undesirable noises. Composer Edgard Varese (1883-1965)
called thus the "liberation of sound...the right to make music with any and all sounds."
Electronic music, for example―made with the aid of computers, synthesizers, and
(5) electronic instruments―may include sounds that in the past would not have been
consdered musical Environmental sounds, such as thunder, and electronically generated
hisses and blips can be recorded, manipulated, and then incorporated into a musical
composition. But composers also draw novel sounds from voices and nonelectronic
instruments. Singers may be asked to scream, laugh, groan, sneeze, or to sing phonetic
(10) sounds rather than words. Wind and string players may lap or scrape their instruments.
A brass or woodwind player may hum while playing, to produce two pitches at once; a
pianist may reach inside the piano to pluck a string and then run a metal blade along it. In
the music of the Western world, the greatest expansion and experimentation have involved
percussion instruments, which outnumber strings and winds in many recent compositions.
(15) Traditional percussion instruments are struck with new types of beaters; and instruments
that used to be couriered unconvennonal in Western music―tom-toms, bongos,
slapsticks, maracas―are widelv used.
In the search for novel sounds, increased use has been made in Western music of
Microtones. Non-Western music typically divides and interval between two pitches more
(20) finely than Western music does, thereby producing a greter number of distinct tones,
or micro tones, within the same interval. Composers such as Krzysztof Pmderecki create
sound that borders on electronic noise through tone clusters―closely spaced tones played
together and heard as a mass, block, or band of sound. The directional aspect of sound has
taken on new importance as well Loudspeakers or groups of instruments may be placed
(25) at opposite ends of the stage, in the balcony, or at the back and sides of the auditorium.
Because standard music notation makes no provision for many of these innovations,
recent music scores may contain graphlike diagrams, new note shapes and symbols, and
novel ways of arranging notation on the page.
What does the passage mainly discuss？
A．The use of nontraditional sounds in contemporary music
B．How sounds are produced electronically
C．How standard musical notation has beer, adapted for nontraditional sounds
D．Several composers who have experimented with the electronic production of sound
costs in several currencies. The group develops, manufactures and markets products in the medical sector. The growth
of the group has been achieved by investment and acquisition. It is organised into three global business units which
manage their sales in international markets, and take full responsibility for strategy and business performance. Only
five per cent of the business is in the country of incorporation. Competition in the sector is quite fierce.
The group competes across a wide range of geographic and product markets and encourages its subsidiaries to
enhance local communities by reinvestment of profits in local educational projects. The group’s share of revenue in a
market sector is often determined by government policy. The markets contain a number of different competitors
including specialised and large international corporations. At present the group is awaiting regulatory approval for a
range of new products to grow its market share. The group lodges its patents for products and enters into legal
proceedings where necessary to protect patents. The products are sourced from a wide range of suppliers, who, once
approved both from a qualitative and ethical perspective, are generally given a long term contract for the supply of
goods. Obsolete products are disposed of with concern for the environment and the health of its customers, with
reusable materials normally being used. The industry is highly regulated in terms of medical and environmental laws
and regulations. The products normally carry a low health risk.
The Group has developed a set of corporate and social responsibility principles during the period which is the
responsibility of the Board of Directors. The Managing Director manages the risks arising from corporate and social
responsibility issues. The group wishes to retain and attract employees and follows policies which ensure equal
opportunity for all the employees. Employees are informed of management policies, and regularly receive in-house
training.
The Group enters into contracts for fixed rate currency swaps and uses floating to fixed rate interest rate swaps. The
cash flow effects of these swaps match the cash flows on the underlying financial instruments. All financial
instruments are accounted for as cash flow hedges. A significant amount of trading activity is denominated in the
Dinar and the Euro. The dollar is its functional currency.
