18、it the senses, you are incapable of calling it anything less.Owned by a local couple, this Persian restaurant has an inviting, homelike atmosphere that many restaurants lack.The space is small with only a few dining tables and nearly no decoration, but the environment is truly charming. Lying in a h

19、ardly noticeable street corner, the restaurant still attracts all customers, especially those experienced in the delights of Middle Eastern cooking. A common sight is that of old Persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics, watching news events on TV, drinking a black tea kno

20、wn as Persian chai, an reading local Persian newspapers all the while trying to finish off their plates piled with food.The variety of food at the restaurant is limited, but the amount of each dish is fairly large. Most of the meals can serve two people and are under $10, so not only is it affordabl

21、e but practical as well.The food, especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy, made with limited fat and oil and served straight off the grill （烤肉架）.The main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs, which are different style of grilled meat.One delic

22、ious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob, which is made of grille chicken pieces served with cither rice or bread. Another great kabob is the Cbelo Kabob, kabob consisting of grilled beef.Although the restaurant is small, the atmosphere and the food is delicious. It is a place that should

23、 not be overlooked. （2011湖南卷）A41. When first entering the restaurant, one can find that it _. A. is splendidly decorated B. has pleasant smells of kabobs C. is crowded with dining tables D. looks like a common restaurant42. What activity is also mentioned apart from dining in the restaurant? A. Watc

24、hing news events on TV. B. Drinking a kind of black coffee. C. Reading local English newspapers. D. Discussing world topics in low voices.43. The food of the restaurant _. A. is served in small amounts B. is rather expensive C. is rich in variety D. is very healthy44. What is the dish Joojeh Kabob m

25、ainly made of? A. Rice B. Chicken C. Bread D. Beef45. It can be inferred from the passage that the restaurant _. A. occupies a large space B. owns a favorable location C. is popular for its special food D. has a quiet environment insideBPresident Clintons decision on Apr.8 to send Chinese Premier Zh

26、u Rongji packing without an agreement on Chinas entry into the World Trade Organization seemed to be a massive miscalculation. The President took a drubbing from much of the press, which had breathlessly reported that a deal was in the bag. The Cabinet and Whit House still appeared divided, and busi

27、ness leaders were characterized as furious over the lost opportunity. Zhu charged that Clinton lacked “the courage” to reach an accord. And when Clinton later telephoned the angry Zhu to pledge a renewed effort at negotiations, the gesture was widely portrayed as a flip-flop.In fact, Clinton made th

28、e right decision in holding out for a better WTO deal. A lot more horse trading is needed before a final agreement can be reached. And without the Administrations goal of a “bullet-proof agreement” that business lobbyists can enthusiastically sell to a Republican Congress, the whole process will end

29、 up in partisan acrimony that could harm relations with China for years.THE HARD PART. Many business lobbyists, while disappointed that the deal was not closed, agree that better terms can still be had. And Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin, National Economic Council Director Gene B. Sperling, Comm

30、erce Secretary William M. Daley, and top trade negotiator Charlene Barshefsky all advised Clinton that while the Chinese had made a remarkable number of concessions, “were not there yet,” according to senior officials.Negotiating with Zhu over the remaining issues may be the easy part. Although Clin

31、ton can signal U.S. approval for Chinas entry into the WTO himself, he needs Congress to grant Beijing permanent most-favored-nation status as part of a broad trade accord. And the temptation for meddling on Capital Hill may prove over-whelming. Zhu had barely landed before Senate Majority Leader Tr

32、ent Lott (R-Miss) declared himself skeptical that China deserved entry into the WTO. And Senators Jesse A. Helms (R-N.C.) and Emest F. Hollings (D-S. C.) promised to introduce a bill requiring congressional approval of any deal.The hidden message from these three textile-state Southerners: Get more

33、protection for the U. S. clothing industry. Hoping to smooth the way, the Administration tried, but failed, to budge Zhu on textiles. Also left in the lurch: Wall Street, Hollywood, and Detroit. Zhu refused to open up much of the lucrative Chinese securities market and insisted on “cultural” restric

34、tions on American movies and music. He also blocked efforts to allow U. S. auto makers to provide fleet financing.BIG JOB. Already, business lobbyists are blanketing Capitol Hill to presale any eventual agreement, but what theyve heard so far isnt encouraging. Republicans, including Lott, say that “

35、the time just isnt right” for the deal. Translation: Were determined to make it look as if Clinton has capitulated to the Chinese and is ignoring human, religious, and labor rights violations; the theft of nuclear-weapons technology; and the sale of missile parts to Americas enemies. Beijings fierce

36、 critics within the Democratic Party, such as Senator Paul D. Wellstone of Minnesota and House Minority leader Richard A. Gephardt of Missouri, wont help, either.Just how tough the lobbying job on Capitol Hill will be become clear on Apr. 20, when Rubin lectured 19chief executives on the need to dis

37、cipline their Republican allies. With business and the White House still trading charges over who is responsible for the defeat of fast-track trade negotiating legislation in 1997, working together wont be easy. And Republicanswith a winksay that theyll eventually embrace Chinas entry into the WTO a

38、s a favor to Corporate America. Though not long before they torture Clinton. But Zhu is out on a limb, and if Congress overdoes the criticism, he may be forced by domestic critics to renege. Business must make this much dear to both its GOP allies and the Whit House: This historic deal is too import

39、ant to risk losing to any more partisan squabbling46. The main idea of this passage is A. The Contradiction between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. B. On Chinas entry into WTO. C. Clinton was right. D. Business Lobbyists Control Capitol Hill.47. What does the sentence “Also left in th

40、e lurch: Wall Street, Hollywood, Detroit” convey? A. Premier Zhu rejected their requirements. B. The three places overdid criticism. C. They wanted more protection. D. They are in trouble.48. What was the attitude of the Republican Party toward Chinas entry into the WTO? A. Contradictory. B. Appreci

41、ative. C. Disapproving. D. Detestful.49. Who plays the leading part in the deal in America? A. White House . B. Republicans. C. The Democratic Party. D. Businessmen.50. It can be inferred from the passage that A. America will make concessions. B. America will hold out for a better WTO C. Clinton has the right to signal U. S. approval for Chinas entry. D.
