The Asian country announced yesterday that China was putting tariffs or taxes on about $3 billion worth of imports from the U.S. The tariffs are on 128 American-made products, ranging from pork and fruit to steel pipes. This will make it more expensive for America businesses to sell those products in China. And China says this was done as a response to the tariffs that the U.S. recently put on imports of Chinese steel and aluminum.
Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump says more tariffs, new ones worth as much a $50 billion are being planned by the U.S. on additional goods from China. So, one big question is, will all this cause a trade war, when countries take turns putting tariffs on each other ’s goods, causing prices to rise?
We don’t know yet. The U.S. and China ship hundreds of billions of dollars of goods back and forth every year. So, the tariffs we’ve seen so far are a tiny part of that. And America’s treasury secretary says the U.S. and China are talking behind the scenes about how to prevent a possible trade war.
But a number of experts are concerned this could turn into one and so are some stock investors. The Chinese tariffs were a major factor in a drop of the U.S. stock market yesterday when the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 459 points. But just like it’s hard to tell if a trade war is on the horizon, it's also hard to tell what kind of effects one could have decades down the road.
1.Which of the following imports did the U.S. government put tariffs on?
A. Pork. B. Fruit. C. Aluminum. D. Steel pipes.
2.Why does the Chinese government put tariffs on imports from the U.S.?
A. Chinese government w ants to cease the trade war.
B. Chinese government w ants to benefit from the trade.
C. Chinese government w ants to make an eye for an eye.
D. Chinese government w ants to promote the world trade.
3.What is the passage mainly about?
A. There is a trade war between China and the U.S.
B. The U.S. president increases the tariffs on Chinese goods.
C. Chinese government fights back to put tariffs on imported goods.
D. Putting tariffs on imports starts with tensions between the U.S. and China.
4.In which section of a newspaper can you probably find this article?
A. Economy. B. Technology. C. Entertainment. D. Culture.

BEIJING --Seven prestigious universities in China announced Sunday that they would begin using the same independent exam -- besides the national one -- to test students hoping to gain entrance to them in 2011.
The seven are Peking University, Beihang University, Beijing Normal University, Nankai University, Fudan University, Xiamen University and Hong Kong University.
Students who want to gain entrance to any of the seven universities will only have to sit one independent exam, according to the joint announcement.
"This will help lighten the students' load, otherwise they must take several exams for different universities," said the announcement.
Passing the exam could result in more than one interview chance, giving the students more opportunities to choose their favorite universities.
China's college entrance exam system is undergoing reform as universities aim to select students based on independent criteria rather than just using the results of the national exam.
In 2003, Peking University and another 21 universities were allowed to pilot (试用) the reform by using their own criteria to independently select five percent of their students.
Now nearly 80 universities across the country have the right to select talented students based on their own exams.
Education experts regard universities selecting students according to independent examinations as conducive (有助的) to better understanding where the students' talents lie.
Although this may be the case, it has also created problems as students may sit many different exams as they often apply for a number of universities.
To relieve students from such pressures, the national education outline (2010--2020) released in July this year encourages high-level universities to group together to use the same exams.
1.If students want to be admitted to the seven prestigious universities , they can ______。
| A．only pass the interview. |
| B．only take the national exam. |
| C．only take the independent exam. |
| D．either take the national exam or the take the independent exam. |
2.What's the purpose of students sitting one independent exam to gain entrance to the seven universities ?
| A．It can reduce students' load to take several exams. |
| B．The universities will have the same standard to test students. |
| C．There will be less trouble marking students' test papers. |
| D．It can avoid fierce competition among these universities. |
3.If students pass the independent exam , they will ______.
| A．take the national exam. |
| B．have one or more interview chances. |
| C．be admitted to one of the universities. |
| D．he trained to be adapted to universities life and studies. |
4. What is the advantage of universities selecting students according to independent examinations?
| A．Students needn't take the national exam. |
| B．Students' education cost can be lowered. |
| C．Students abilities and talents can be better found. |
| D．It can encourage middle schools to recommend more qualified students. |
