    根据下列内容,回答203-206题。
    Chinese and US students will have greater access to educational exchange programmes as thetwo countries have agreed to expand and promote educational co-operation.
    Further co-operation in higher education, language learning and teaching, and primary andsecondary education were highlighted in a memorandum of understanding signed by educationministers from both countries on Thursday.
    Margaret Spellings, US secretary of education, described the memorandum as historic at abreakfast panel discussion hosted by the China Chamber of Commerce on Friday in Beijing, thelast stop of her East Asia tour following Tokyo and Seoul.
    She said the United States is"deadly serious" about promoting educational co-operation andexchange with China. Her delegation, consisting of 12 US university presidents, is the first everhigh-profile delegation of us college and university presidents to China.
    "It's even more compelling that on this first ever delegation, China is one of the firsts of thefirst, as our trip starts from East Asia," Spellings said.
    Education co-operation and exchanges between the United States and China have beendeveloping rapidly in recent years. More than 63,000 Chinese students are currently studying inthe United States, while there has also been a rise in the number of US students studying in China.
    A recent report from the New York--based Institute of International Education, one of theworld's largest international education organizations shows that 6,389 US students came to Chinain the 2005-2006 academic year, up 35 percent year-on-year. The report also lists China as theonly Asian country among the top 10 popular destinations for US students to study abroad.
    Spellings said she was pleased with the numbers but not satisfied."US students do want tocome to study in China, and we need to help them do that as well as to help Chinese students tocome to our country."

    B.the US will further streamline the visa application process, making it easier for Chinesestudents.
    C.the US often send delegations of college and university presidents to China in recent years.

    Practice 4  The other kind of bank—the Bank of the United States was simultaneously a commercial bank and a quasi-public central bank. The First Bank of the United States, chartered by the Congress in 1791, owed its existence to Alexander Hamilton who, shortly after becoming Secretary of the Treasury, showed remarkable insight into the financial problems of the young country and the economic implications of banking. The First Bank of the United States operated much like a private bank. But unlike a regular commercial bank, it had the federal government as a partner and number one customer. The Bank served as the fiscal agent for the government, holding government tax receipts, paying government bills, performing various financial housekeeping tasks. In return, the government kept its cash as deposits with the First Bank of the United States, giving it a huge financial base. The First Bank’s federal charter, moreover, allowed it to operate branches in all states, giving it a big competitive edge over regular state-chartered banks, which could operate only in the states that chartered them. Gradually the First Bank of the United States evolved into a sort of banker’s bank, gaining the power to police lesser commercial banks.

    另外一种银行为美利坚银行,它既是商业银行又是准公共性质的中央银行。1791年,美利坚第一银行经国会特许成立,它的成立应归功于亚历山大·汉密尔顿。他就任财政部长后不久就对新生的美国面临的财政问题以及银行业的经济意义显示出极强的洞察力。美利坚第一银行在运作上很像是一家私人银行。与通常的商业银行不同的是,它拥有联邦政府为其合伙人和头号客户。它充当了联邦政府的财政代理:为政府保管税收收入、替政府办理账单支付以及为政府执行各种金融保管任务等。作为回报,政府将现金存入美利坚第一银行,从而使该银行有了巨大的金融基础。由于美利坚第一银行经联邦特许可在各州设立分行,而由各州特许成立的普通银行只能在其州内经营,所以相比之下,美利坚第一银行有很大的竞争优势。美利坚第一银行因而逐渐演化为某种“银行家的银行”,把握着监督较小的商业银行的权力。

    Practice 8  The United States has long been known as a “melting pot”, because many of its people are descended from settlers who came from all over the world to make their homes in the new land. The first immigrants in American history came from England and the Netherlands. Attracted by reports of great economic opportunities and religious and political freedom, immigrants from many other countries flocked to the United States in increasing numbers, reaching a peak in the years 1880—1914. Between 1820 and 1980 the United States admitted almost 50 million immigrants.  Some 1,360,000 American Indians, descendants of North America's first inhabitants, now reside in the United States. Most live in the West, but many are in the south and north central areas. Of the more than 300 separate tribes, the largest is the Navaho in the Southwest.  Black people were first brought to America from Africa as slaves. Their descendants now make up nearly 12 percent of the population. They once lived mainly in the agricultural South but now are scattered throughout the nation.

    美国历来以“民族熔锅”著称,因为许多美国人是移民的后裔,当年这些移民从世界各地来到这块新土地上安家落户。美国历史上首批移民来自英国和荷兰。许多其他国家的人听说在美国经济上有很大的发展机会,还有宗教自由和政治自由,于是便纷纷移居美国,移民人数越来越多,1880年至1914年达到了顶峰。在1820年到1980年间,美国接纳了近5000万移民。
    现在约有1360000名印第安人居住在美国,他们是北美土著的后裔。大多数印第安人住在西部,也有许多住在中部的南北地区。美国印第安人分属300多个不同的部落,其中最大的是西南部的纳瓦霍部落。
