Beijing — Premier Wen Jiabao has urged the leadership of all countries to deepen their political will in dealing with climate change woes （災(zāi)難） as uncertainties mount （增長） in the months before the United Nation’s conference in Cancun， Mexico， at the end of this year.

Wen made the remarks on Friday when he met with nearly 20 politicians， climate change and environmental ministers worldwide， who are in Beijing this weekend to attend an international forum on green economy and climate change.

Based on the achievements made at the Copenhagen Summit last December， Wen urged the rich countries to further make clear their compulsory carbon reduction targets．“At the same time， we developing countries should make clear our voluntary goal of slowing down climate change，” Wen said.

Wen also urged the developed countries to transfer（轉(zhuǎn)讓）climate change friendly technologies to the developing countries， especially the poorest countries and island nations.

During the meeting， Wen said China will redouble its efforts in reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency during the coming years after it finishes its 2006-2010 goal of cutting energy consumption per unit of economic output by 20 percent.

While praising China for its green efforts， former Australian Prime Minister Robert J．Lee Hawke asked China to share its experiences and lessons on energy savings and pollution reduction to the rest of the world to deal with global environmental woes and climate change.

Wen responded: “China， together with the rest of the world， is willing to make its due contribution in coping with global warming and climate change.”

At a banquet for the foreign guests on Friday night， former vice-premier Zeng Peiyan said “Increasing uncertainties are ahead for the climate change negotiations．The world needs more dialogue and cooperation”.

“Climate change woes are our shared challenges but the root lies in the historical emissions by the developed countries，” said Zeng，as president of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges， which organized the weekend climate change summit.

Zeng expected the forum to work as a platform for different countries to communicate their positions freely before the Bonn climate change negotiation in June and the Cancun conference at the end of this year.

It is love that makes the world go round．And it is also love that has such power to overcome all difficulties．So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure，affection，and friendliness，it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything．A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own— a universal language—understood by the people of every nation in the world．We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors，but we smile in the same tongue．We need no interpreter for thus expressing love， happiness，or good will.

One day while shopping in a small town in southern California，it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine．He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase．I bought nothing，and marched angrily out of the store．My anger toward that grew with each step．Outside，standing at the corner， was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties．His expressive brown eyes met and held mine， and in the next instant a beautiful，dazzling smile covered his face．I gave in immediately．The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me，and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding．“Beautiful day，isn’t it?” I remarked， in passing．The， suddenly something inside me sent me turning back．“I really owe you a debt of gratitude，” I said softly．His smile deepened，but he made no attempt to answer．A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby．The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly．“Carlos，he no speak English，” she volunteered．“You want I should tell him something?” In that moment I felt transformed．Carlos’ smile had made a big person of me．My friendliness and good will to ward all mankind stood ten feet tall．“Yes，” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere， “tell him I said ‘Thank you!’” “Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly puzzled．I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave．“Just tell him that，” I insisted．“He’ll understand．I am sure!” Oh， what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again，I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning.

From that day on， I became smile – conscious， and I practice the diligently， anywhere and everywhere，with everybody．When I got excited in traffic，taking the right – of – way （公路用地）from the other car with my stupid mistake，I’d smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically．This action on my part would always draw a good – natured smile in return．If the other fellow was at fault – and if I could remember my resolution in time! – he’d get a broad smile of understanding．This took a bit of doing at first．I’ll admit it wasn’t always easy， but it was fun．The results were sometimes amazing．Many times，a broad， friendly smile would completely turn aside ill – feeling and tension．I’m wondering now how many tragic add dents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways，if every driver remembered to smile!

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在表格中的空白處填入恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意：每個空格只填一個單詞。

In a memory – based competition between you and a chimp （猩猩）; who do you think would win? If you put yourself on top， you might want to guess again.

In a test that challenged participants to remember numbers， a young chimp performed better than Japanese college students．

Here's how the test worked．At Kyoto University in Japan， human students and chimpanzee participants sat in front of a computer．Five numbers， ranging from 1 to 9， were combined with one another and then， they appeared at random places on the screen．

The numbers stayed on the screen for less than a second．In the first test， for example， participants saw the numbers for 650 milliseconds （about two- thirds of a second）．

Then， each number disappeared and they saw a white square instead．Participants had to touch the squares in numerical order， based on the numbers that had been there a moment before.

In this test， the students touched the boxes in the correct order about 80 percent of the time．A young chimp named Ayumu performed equally well.

During a harder test， participants were only able to see the numbers for 210 milliseconds.

This time， students only succeeded in putting the boxes in the correct order about 40 percent of the time．But Ayumu still could select the boxes in the right order nearly 80 percent of the time．   

Some people have what's called a "photographic memory"， which allows them to remember a surprising number of details after just a quick look at something．Ayumu's memory might work in a similar way， says lead researcher Tetsuro Matsuzawa．

The chimp's young age might have something to do with his impressive performance， too．In previous tests， the Japanese researchers found that young chimps performed better than their mothers.

 The scientists are interested to see whether Ayumu loses his strong memory as he arrows older．They already know that young children sometimes have sharp memories when offered something photographical， but they lose this ability over time.
