14、ked the State of Wei on a large scale repeatedly and occupied large areas of land, for the State of Wei was too weak to defend itself. In 273 B.C., the Qin army launched a more serious attack upon the State of Wei than ever. The king of the State of Wei gathered his officials, and asked with a worri
15、ed look if anyone could propose a way to defeat the Qin army. After years of chaos caused by the wars, the officials trembled when fighting was mentioned, and no one dared to speak of resistance. At the critical moment when a large enemy force was bearing down upon the border, most of the officials
16、persuaded the king to sue for peace, at the cost of giving away to the State of Qin the large area of land north of the Huanghe River and south of the Taihang Mountain. However Su Dai, a counselor, did not agree. He hurried up to the king and said: Your Majesty, they dont think about the interests o
17、f the country at all. It is just because they are afraid of death that they ask you to sue for peace by betraying the country. Of course you can temporarily satisfy the ambition of Qin, but it will never stop attacking us until our land is totally given away. He added,“Once there was a man whose hou
18、se was on fire. People told him to put out the fire with water, but he would not listen. Instead, he carried a faggot to put out the fire, only to make the fire fiercer. Isnt it similar to carrying faggots to put out a fire if you agree to sue for peace at the cost of the land of the State of Wei ”
19、Though Su Dais argument was very convincing, the king accepted the suggestion of those officials and gave away to the State of Qin a large area of the land of the State of Wei. As might be expected, the Qin army attacked the State of Wei in 225 B.C. again, surrounding the capital city Daliang and fl

23、C neutral D disapproval 答案:【小题 1】 D【小题 1】 B【小题 1】 B【小题 1】 A【小题 1】 C For Chinese wanting to work as nurses in the United Sates, the arrival of the test of the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) may be a welcome move. The CGFNS has a certification programme for people wanting t
24、o work as registered nurses in the US. The first CGFNS test in China is to be held in Beijing in July. Registrations is open till April 9. According to US labour law, nurses have to pass the National Council License Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) before they can practise. However, the
25、NCLEX-RN is only useful in the US, making it difficult for people from other countries to get in. But, the US expects a shortage of 50,000 nurses by 2010. So, the CGFNS has not replaced the NCLEX-RN, which is still needed for work as a registered nurse in the US. So what exactly does CGFNS do First
26、of all, it helps international nurses qualify for a work visa for the US. Nurses educated abroad who do not have a US license by the NCLEX-RN, must get the CGFNS certificate. “But not everyone who gets a CGFNS certificate can get a work visa. There are many requirements for a visa, and the CGFNS is
27、just one,” said John Ratigan, immigration officer for the CGFNS. The certificate helps applicants meet requirements for the NCLEX-RN. Forty-two states require a CGFNS certificate from nurses educated abroad before taking the NCLEX-RN examination. About 85 percent of those who passed the CGFNS have p
28、assed the NCLEX-RN. According to Barbara Michols, chief executive officer of CGFNS, “the CGFNS is cost-efficient for the Chinese. If they cant pass the CGFNS here in China, their chances of passing the NCLEX-RN for the US are tiny. This saves time and money on visa applications and the long trip. ”
29、In a word, to get a CGFNS certificate, a person must have: a credentials review, the CGFNS qualifying exam of nursing knowledge and an English language proficiency exam. 【小题 1】 We can infer from the text that to people hoping to work as registered nurses in the US, CGFNS tests can be taken _. A nowh

A NCLEX-RN B CGFNS C CGFNS and NCLEX-RN D CGFNS or NCLEX-RN 【小题 3】 We can learn from the text that _. A if yo
31、u get a CGFNS certificate, you can pass the NCLEX-RN in the US and get visa applications B if you pass the NCLEX-RN in the US, you can get a CGFNS certificate and get visa applications C if you cant pass the NCLEX-RN in the US, you will not be able to pass the CGFNS examination D if you get a CGFNS
32、certificate, you will be more likely to pass the NCLEX-RN examination 【小题 4】 The sentence CGFNS holders have a higher rate of success on the NCLEX-RN examination can be arranged at the beginning of Paragraph _.
