4.When international aid is given,steps must be taken to ensure (确保)that the aid reaches the people for whom it is intended.The way to achieve this may not be simple.It is very difficult for a nation to give help directly to people in another nation.The United Nations Organiztion(UNO) could undertake to direct the distribution of aid.Here however rises the problem of costs.Also tied with this is time.Perhaps the UNO could set up a body of devoted men and women is every country who can speedily distribute aid to victims of floods and earthquakes.More than the help that one nation can give to another during a disaster,it would be more effective to give other forms of help during normal times.A common proverb says,"Give me a fish and I eat for day,teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime."If we follow this wise saying,it would be right to teach people from less developed nations to take care of themselves.For example,a country could share its technology with another.This could be in simple areas like agriculture or in more complex areas like medical and health care or even in building satellites.Even small country is able to help less developed nations.Sometimes what is take for granted,like the setting up of a water purification plant or the administration of a school,could be useful for countries which are looking about to solve common problems.It does not cost much to share such simple things.Exchange students could be attached for a number of months or years and learn the required craft while on the site.They can then take their knowledge back to their homelands and if necessary come back form time to time to clear doubts or to update themselves.Such aid will be truly helpful and there is no chance of it being temporary or of it falling into the wrong hands.
Many countries run extensive courses in all sorts of skills.It will not cost much to include deserving foreigners in these courses.Besides giving effective help to the countries concerned,there is also the build-up of friendships to consider.Giving direct help by giving materials may be effective in the short run and must continue to be given in the event of emergencies.However,in the long run what is really effective would be the sharing of knowledge.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,文章主要讲述了灾难在全球是不可避免的.国际援助雪中送炭.然而援助要落到实处,应该采取一些高效的措施.灾难区要直接受惠于援助区,联合国为此做出了很多努力.比如建立一个正直无私心救援物质的管理团队.而在本文中作者认为高效的援助并不在于物质,而是平日里技术知识的共享.本文引用了中国的古语--授之以鱼,不如授之以渔,表明作者的观点:传授知识才是帮助贫穷落后国家的根本.
解答 61.C 细节理解题,根据文章第一段Perhaps the UNO could set up a body of devoted men and women in every country who can speedily distribute aid to victims of floods and earthquakes.可知救援物质要快速地分配到灾区,联合国可以在各国组建一支特别团队,专门实施这项工作.故选C.
62.C 细节理解题,理解第二段的划线句子"Give me a fish and I eat for day,teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime."这是一句谚语,意为"授之以鱼,不如授之以渔".这句谚语强调教会他人知识的重要性,因此答案为C.Teaching skills is essential.传授技能才是根本.
63.A 考查写作手法.第二段的写作主要是靠举例来对中心句Give me a fish and I eat for day,teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime."进行阐述的,关键词For example…,以此开始进行举例,包括:技术共享,建立净水系统或学校的行政,以及派交换生到发达国家学习,学有所长后回国效力等等.
64.D 首先找到the wrong hands所在的句子,在第二段最后一句Such aid will be truly helpful and there is no chance of it being temporary or of it falling into the wrong hands.本段通过举例来证明作者的观点--物质的援助是暂时的,而知识的传授才是根本,ABC选项都是物质的援助,而D项属于经济援助,可见选项为D,经济的援助可能引向歧途,fall into the wrong hands.
65.A 本项采用排除法,BCD都是错误的,国际援助是必须的,它需要物质援助,但更需要知识的援助来支持贫穷落后国家.B.unnecessary 不必要,错误;C.过于片面,只说到物质,错误;D.支持发达国家(developed countries)错误.故答案为A.国际援助面临着困难.
点评 考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力.做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择.在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
