  BEIJING, China-Pollution in China remains very serious as the country's rapid economic growth brings new environmental problems, a minister said Saturday.

  Vice Environment Minister Zhang Lijun said China has made progress on environmental protection, but admitted that its rapid economic growth over the past decade has had a negative effect on the environment.

  "Our rapid economic development has continuously brought our country new environmental problems, particularly dangerous chemicals, electronic waste and so on.These environmental pollutants(污染物)bring new problems and affect human health, " Zhang told a news conference.

  He said that emissions(排放)of traditional pollutants remain high and some areas have failed to meet government standards.

  China has pledged to continue reducing emissions this year of three key air pollutants-ammonia nitrogen, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.The government has also promised to bring down demand for chemical oxygen-a measure of water pollution by l.5 percent from the 2010 levels.

  In the last five years, there were 912 "environmental emergencies" involving heavy metal pollution, including several well-publicized instances of mass contamination, Zhang said.Thousands of children were affected by lead poisoning in several provinces in 2009 and 2010 because they lived near metal smelters or battery factories.

  Other incidents included a diesel fuel leak in the Yellow River, chemical contamination(污染)in the northeast Songhua River following a flood, and crude oil leakage off the northeastern coastal city of Dalian after a pipeline burst.

  The minister noted that rapid development in the next five years would increase the need for China to improve environmental protection and shift to a more sustainable model of economic development from its dependence on industries which consume huge quantities of energy.

  China is focusing on clean energy, including solar, wind and nuclear power, as one way to reduce its dependence on coal, which generates three-quarters of its electricity and is also used for winter heating in northern cities.China also hopes the strategy will reduce its demand for oil and gas and increase economic growth and jobs.

  Zhang told reporters there was no plan to adjust China's overall strategy for nuclear development but he said Beijing will learn lessons from Japan after a violent earthquake resulted in a radioactive leak(放射能泄露).

  "Some lessons we learn from Japan will be considered in the making of China's nuclear power plans, " he said."But China will not change its determination and plan for developing nuclear power."

  Jamie Oliver has been invited by Gordon Brown to prepare a banquet at No.10 for President Barack Obama and other leaders of the G20, offering a cut-price menu to reflect times when trade and industry are far from prosperous and the rate of employment is decreasing.

  Downing Street sources say Oliver, the well-known chef, will cook using “honest high-street products” and avoid expensive or “fancy” ingredients(材料).

  The prime minister is trying to avoid a repeat of the embarrassment last year when he sat down to an 18-course banquet at a Japanese summit to discuss world food shortages.

  Obama, President Nicolas Sarkozy of France, Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany and other leaders will be served by apprentices(学徒)from Fifteen, the London restaurant Oliver founded to help train young people in poverty in order to make a living by mastering a skill.

  Brown wants the dinner to reflect the emphasis of the London summit, which he hopes will lead to an agreement to lift the world out of recession.“To be invited to cook for such an important group of people, who are trying to solve some of the world's major problems, is really a privilege,” said Oliver.

  “I'm hoping the menu I'm working on will show British food and produce is some of the best in the world, but also show we have pioneered a high-quality apprentice scheme at Fifteen London that is giving young people a skill to be proud of.”

  The chef has not yet finalized the menu, but is expected to draw inspiration from his latest book, Jamie's Ministry of Food, which has budget recipes for beef and ale stew(啤酒炖菜)and “impressive” chocolate fudge cake.

(1)

The underlined word “recession” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”.

[  ]

A.

opposition

C.

discussion

D.

(2)

[  ]

A.

B.

C.

He has founded the Fifteen London.

D.

He is one of the apprentices serving leaders of the G20.

(3)

Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

[  ]

A.

Oliver is honored to be invited to cook for the G20 leaders.

B.

Altogether three presidents are mentioned in the text.

C.

President Barack Obama offers the cut-price menu.

D.

The menu for the G20 dinner banquet has been decided.

(4)
