BEIJING - The country's top health officials state that an international charity's decisions not to give millions of dollars to Chinese organizations that fight AIDS and other diseases will not bring about the end of those organizations.

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria announced on Monday that it will withhold $95 million from the $270 million in grants(补助金) it had planned to give China. That decision came as the result of months of discussion between the charity and Chinese officials.

On the mainland, a large number of programs meant to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS have received money from the Global Fund. Many observers now fear that the announced cut will undermine those organizations' work.

Chen Zhu, the minister of health, said officials have found a way to limit the harm. “In the coming five years, the Chinese government will constantly increase its financial support of social organizations, particularly those that work to control and prevent HIV/AIDS.” Chen said while addressing the 6th Experience Exchange Conference of International Cooperation Program on HIV/AIDS in China on Monday.

In a recent survey of more than 200 organizations taking part in the fight against HIV/AIDS on the mainland, nearly 80 percent of them said they had received grants from the Global Fund. About 83 percent of them said they will find it difficult to continue operating without financial support from abroad, it said. Official statistics showed the Global Fund has given China $548 million in grants since 2003.

Xia Jing, leader of a Beijing-based grassroots organization dedicated to controlling AIDS, said: “We were like children fostered by foreign milk. As foreign money began to be withdrawn from China, we were faced with serious financial hardships.” Han Mengjie, executive director of Global Fund China Programs, said the Chinese government has fully recognized the important role social organizations play in controlling diseases. “The work done and efforts made by such organizations must be sustained for a long time to supplement the government's intervention work,”he said, “We have to face the truth that international money for AIDS control will gradually leave China and to prepare ourselves to deal with that.”

1.Which sentence is the closest to the title of the passage?

A．China will have to fight against AIDS alone, though facing financial hardship.

B．Chinese organizations of fighting against AIDS and other diseases won’t receive money from international charity.

C．The fight against AIDS won’t be stopped by the withdraw of money from charity in China.

D．Chinese organizations of fighting against AIDS and other diseases will be reduced to despair.

2.According to Han Mengjie, which of the following is the most possible action to be taken?

A．Chinese government is expected to seek help from social organization to control diseases

B．Chinese government shouldn’t rely too much on social organizations

C．Social organizations’ work and efforts won’t make much difference to the fight against AID

D．We Chinese are well prepared for the international money’s withdraw from China

3.How much money will China have received from Global Fund by the end of this year ?

A．$818             B．$548             C．$ 270            D．$723

4.What implication can we get from the passage？

A．Many people are not optimistic about the control of AIDS.

B．Chinese government will take an active part in AIDS control.

C．International charity are treating China unfairly.

D．Most organization related with AIDS control had received money from the Global Fund before this announcement on Monday.
