23、 Scanning) (15 minutes)The United Nations: The World in One BuildingDo you know the old Arab story about a bird called the phoenix? First it burned to death. Then it came back to life. That doesnt sound believable, does it? But there is an example of the phoenix in our own time: The United Nations.
24、In 1945, it brought the dream of world peace back to life again after World War.Reasons for the existence of the UNSince the day of its birth, the United Nations has been the subject of much debate. Some people attack the organization because they think it is too powerful. Others think that it is to
25、o weak. We can better understand this debate if we learn more about the UN and its history.The UN was started for two reasons. First, when the idea was born, people all over the world were tired of war. They were tired not just of World War, but of war itself. They felt that there must be peaceful a
26、nswers to the worlds problems. They felt that only an international organization could keep world peace.The second reason was that modern science had developed new bombs and airplanes. These weapons made it almost impossible for a country to defend itself. National borders were beginning to lose the
27、ir meaning. There was also a feeling that this was only the beginning. Science would develop even more dangerous weapons in the future. Only an international organization would be able to control modern science.Founders of the UNFranklin Delano Roosevelt, who was President of the United States at th
28、e time, believed that the Allies should plan for peace before the war ended. On December 1, 1943, Roosevelt, Winston Churchill of Great Britain and Joseph Stalin of the former Soviet Union agreed to start an organization for world peace. They asked all countries, large and small, to join them.During
29、 the next year and a half, the idea of such an organization was debated in all the capitals of the world. Then came a big day in modern history . On April 11, 1945, the first international meeting of the United Nations took place in San Francisco.The goal of the meeting was to write the UN Charter.
30、All of the fifty-one nations at the meeting had their own ideas to offer for the Charter. After a long debate, a Charter was agreed upon. Every nation present voted for the Charter, no one voted against it.The UN CharterThe UN Charter is a beautiful piece of writing. In language it explains why the
31、UN was started. The reasons are: 1) to keep world peace; 2) to find answers to the worlds social and economic problems; 3) to win respect for human rights; and 4) to help win freedom for people on earth.Since 1945, the number of nations that have signed the UN Charter has more than doubled. These co
32、untries contain almost the whole population of the world. Every kind of government can be found at the UN. And there is one idea which all these countries agree on: the need for world peace.A brief introduction to the UNMost of the offices of the United Nations are in New York City. But there are ot
33、her important UN offices all over the world. The World Health Organization, for example, is in Geneva, Switzerland. The International Court of Justice is in Hague, Holland.The buildings in New York stand along the East River on the island of Manhattan. The park around them leads right to the water.
34、The park contains many works of art that were given as presents to the UN by member countries. There is a Russian work of art next to an American one. In another part of the garden there is a beautiful Japanese bell. In some ways the garden itself shows the idea of the UN-peace among the nations of
35、the world.Outside the UN buildings there is a line of flags almost five blocks long. These are the flags of the member nations.The flag, of the United Nations flies above them. When all the flags are flying, the General Assembly is meeting inside.The Workings of the UNThe General Assembly is the mos
36、t important part of the UN. At its meetings, any country can bring a problem to the attention of the world. But the first big problem of the UN was what language to use. How would the delegates understand each other? Should they translate everything into all languages, or should they choose one lang
37、uage and translate everything into it?They decided to do neither. Instead, they chose five languages. Everything that is spoken at the General Assembly is translated into Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish. Above the hall of the General Assembly there are several little glass rooms. The
38、translators sit inside them. They are very good at their jobs. They must be able to listen to delegates and to translate at the same time! This is a difficult but very important job. One small mistake could cause many problems.The Security Council also meets in New York. Its job is to solve serious
39、problems before they lead to war. It also has the power to send an army into a country-if members of the Security Council agree.There are many other smaller organizations in the UN. One is supposed to help countries with their economic and social problems. Another is supposed to help countries win i
40、ndependence. Another is meat to help women all over the world.Different Opinion about the UN Since its earliest days, many people have criticized the UN. They say that the UN is too weak. As an example, they say that some member countries promise to respect human rights, but many member countries sh
41、ow little or no respect for human rights. The UN can do nothing about this. Some also say that the Security Council is too weak to do any good. This happens because all five big powers have to agree before the UN can act.But there are many people who defend the United Nations. They say that only the
42、 citizens of a country can make their government respect human rights. The UN can act only when two countries are at war. It cant help the people of a country fight their own government.Another important defense of the UN is this: where would we be without it? When someone speaks at the UN, everyone
43、 hears about it. There are reports in the newspapers, on the radio, and on television. No one can stop the debates at the UN. Even the smallest country on earth can have its voice heard.We are all citizens of the United Nations. Each of us should learn more about how this important organization work
44、s. If we work to make it better, maybe this phoenix will never burn to death again.(Y) The author writes this article to some extent in order to defend the existence of the UN in spite of the various negative opinions about it.(Y) The first international meeting of the United Nations was held in 194
45、5, attended by fifty-one member nations.(N) The author seems to say that the sole purpose for the creation of the UN at that time was to end World War as soon as possible.(NG) According to the UN Charter, every member nation has the duty to fight against terrorism.(N) Translation for the UN General
46、Assembly is a very important job because they must be able to listen and translate at the same time.(Y) Without the permission from the members of the Security Council, the Security Council cannot send an army into countries at war to help keep peace and solve serious problems.(Y) The article cites
47、the example that some member countries promise to respect human rights, but many member countries show little or no respect for human rights in order to show that the UN is too weak to do anything about it.In talking about the role of the UN, the author says that frontiers of nations have lost their meaning because of _. (modern science/technology)The article says in the last paragra
