Text 2 At the start of the year, The Independent on Sunday argued that there were three over-whelming reasons why Iraq should not be invaded: there was no proof that Saddam posed an imminent threat; Iraq would be even more unstable as a result of its liberation; and a conflict would increase the threat posed by terrorists. What we did not know was that Tony Blair had received intelligence and advice that raised the very same points.Last week’s report from the Intelligence and Security Committee included the revelation that some of the intelligence had warned that a war against Iraq risked an increased threat of terrorism. Why did Mr. Blair not make this evidence available to the public in the way that so much of the alarmist intelligence on Saddam’s weapons was published? Why did he choose to ignore the intelligence and argue instead that the war was necessary, precisely because of the threat posed by international terrorism?There have been two parliamentary investigations into this war and the Hutton inquiry reopens tomorrow. In their different ways they have been illuminating, but none of them has addressed the main issues relating to the war. The Foreign Affairs Committee had the scope to range widely, but chose to become entangled in the dispute between the Government and the BBC. The Intelligence Committee reached the conclusion that the Government’s file on Saddam’s weapons was not mixed up, but failed to explain why the intelligence was so hopelessly wrong. The Hutton inquiry is investigating the death of Dr. David Kelly, a personal tragedy of marginal relevance to the war against Iraq.Tony Blair has still to come under close examination about his conduct in the building-up to war. Instead, the Defence Secretary, Geoff Hoon, is being fingered as if he were master-minding the war behind everyone’s backs from the Ministry of Defence. Mr. Hoon is not a minister who dares to think without consulting Downing Street first. At all times he would have been dancing to Downing Street’s tunes. Mr. Blair would be wrong to assume that he can draw a line under all of this by making Mr. Hoon the fall-guy. It was Mr. Blair who decided to take Britain to war, and a Cabinet of largely skeptical ministers that backed him. It was Mr. Blair who told MPs that unless Saddam was removed, terrorists would pose a greater global threat—even though he had received intelligence that suggested a war would lead to an increase in terrorism.Parliament should be the forum in which the Prime Minister is called more fully to account, but Iain Duncan Smith’s support for the war has neutered an already inept opposition. In the absence of proper parliamentary scrutiny, it is left to newspapers like this one to keep asking the most important questions until the Prime Minister answers them.第26题：We learn from the first two paragraphs that _____.［A］ the evidence should have been made available to the Parliament［B］ the necessity of war has been exaggerated by the Committee［C］ Blair had purposely ignored some of the intelligence he received［D］ it was The Independent that first revealed the intelligence

第一篇 Is the Tie a Necessity?Ties,or neckties,have been asymbol of politeness and elegance in Britain for centuries.But the casual Prime Minister Tony Blair has problems with them.Reports suggest that even the civil servants maystop wearing ties.So,are the famously formalBritish really going to abandon the neckties?Maybe.Last week,the UK's Cabinet Secretary Andrew Turnbull openly welcomed a tieless era.He hinted that civi!servants would soon be free of the costliest 12 inches of fabric that most men ever buy in their lives.In fact,Blair showed this attitude when he had his first guests to a cocktail party.Many of them were celebrities（知名人士）without ties, which would have been unimaginable even in the recent past.For some more conservative British,the tie is a must for proper appearance.Earlier, Labor leader Jim Callaghan said he would have died rather than have his children seen inpublic without a tie.For people like Callaghan,the tie was a sign of being complete,of showing respect.Men were supposed to wear a tie when going to church,to work in the office,to a party-almost every social occasion.But today,people have begun to accept a casual style even for formal occasions.The origin of the tie is tricky.It started as something called simply a"band".The term could mean anything around a man's neck.It appeared in finer ways in the 1630s. Frenchmen showed a love of this particular fashion statement. Their neckwear（颈饰） impressed Charles II , the king of England who was exiled（流放）to France at that time. When he returned to England in 1660,he brought this new fashion item along with him.It wasn't,however,until the late 18th century that fancy young men introduced a more colorful,flowing piece of cloth that eventually became known as the tie.Then,clubs, military institutions and schools began to use colored and patterned ties to indicate the wearer's membership in the late 1gth century.After that,the tie became a necessary item of clothing for British gentlemen.But now,even gentlemen are getting tired of ties.Anyway,the day feels a bit easierwhen you wake up without having to decide which tie suits you and your mood.Who brought the Frenchmen's neckwear to Britain?A: Tony Blair.

Ceasing to Wear Ties1 It's useless.It's dirty.It spreads disease.That's why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called for hospital doctors to stop wearing ties.2 That leads to another question.Why does anyone wear a tie?Ties serve no purpose.They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm.They always seem to get covered in food stains.Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie.It lets everyone know what you just ate.3 Ties have an odd history.Soldiers from Croatia,in Eastern Europe,served as mercenaries（雇佣军）in various conflicts in the 17th century.They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck.Known as cravats（围巾）,these became a popular fashion item in France and eventually evolved into the tie.4 It's an interesting story,but it doesn't tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth or silk around their necks.The answer seems to be about identification（身份证明）.In the19th-century Britain,ties were used by universities,military regiments（团）,sports clubs, schools and gentleman's clubs.Each tie was in a particular set of colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization.Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain's most powerful classes.That made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect.And that led it to be adopted by a much larger class一the business class.5 You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery.So wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living,rather than his hands.It showed you were serious.It showed you were a professional.It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one.It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck.This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.6 Is there a future for ties?The signs are not promising.Many political leaders,including British Prime Minister Tony Blair,now go without ties.British Prime Minister Tony Blair is a man__________.A:they were workmenB:they were members of different organizationsC:hospital doctors stop wearing tiesD:who does not always wear a tieE:who served as mercenaries in many conflicts in the 1 7th centuryF:who does not want to live like a king

问答题Practice 1The relationship between politicians and the press In the seaside town of Brighton in southern England the ruling Labour Party’s annual conference is getting underway. It’s a time for both Mps and grassroots members to take stock of how the party is doing, to discuss policy and to hear, hopefully inspiring speeches. The party delegates will be hoping too for plenty of coverage from the media assembled there. Newspapers in Britain have long had great influence over Governments, much to the resentment of the politicians. Almost seventy-five years ago, the then Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin accused the two big press barons, Lords Beaverbrook and Rothermere, of running their papers as “engines of propaganda” for the “personal wishes and personal dislikes of two men”. He famously accused them of seeking “power without responsibility—the prerogative of the harlot throughout the ages.” It’s hard to imagine the current Prime Minister Tony Blair attacking the tabloid press so publicly. The former editor of the Daily Mirror Piers Morgan claimed earlier this year that he met the Labour leader no fewer than fifty-eight times for lunches, dinners or interviews, a statistic which astonished many in Government and the media, who thought a party leader and Prime Minister should have had better ways to spend his time. But Tony Blair has good reason to court the press. In Britain, Labour, left-of-centre governments, have always had problems with national newspapers, most of whose owners traditionally supported the right-of-centre Conservative Party. This came to a head on Election Day in 1992 when Labour seemed set to win power for the first time in eighteen years. In those days, Britain’s biggest-selling daily paper, the sun, part of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire, was no friend of Labour, indeed it had been Margaret Thatcher’s biggest cheerleader. That morning, on its front page, it depicted the bald head of the then Labour leader Neil Kinnock as a light bulb. Alongside ran the headline: “If Kinnock wins today, will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights?” Labour lost. By the next election, Tony Blair was the party’s leader and determined to win over, or at least neutralize, The Sun and its owner. He succeeded, moving the Labor Party towards the center ground, and gaining The Sun’s endorsement at the last three elections. Once in Government, Labour played hardball with the media, relishing its power, and aware that if it did not take charge of the agenda, the media would. Its key figure was the former political editor of the Daily Mirror, Alasdair Campbell, who took charge not just of the Prime Minister’s press office but all government press officers, trying to ensure the Government spoke with one voice. Journalists who reported favorably were given privileged access; those who didn’t were frozen out. Mr. Blair maintained his close links with R Murdoch and his newspapers; doing everything he could to maintain their support. Lance Price claims in his diaries that the Government assured the tycoon and his editors that it wouldn’t change its policy on Europe without asking them.
