18、. D. Controversial.Queen Elizabeth Ils face is on every note and coin in the United Kingdom, but still little is known about how much money she has personally, how she gets it and who stands to inherit （继承）it.What we do know from public records is that the Queen receives at least $20 million in annu
19、al income through her private estate, and another 100 million dollars from the UK government each year.The first thing to understand is that the Queens income comes from both public and private possessions. A large amount of it comes from something called the Sovereign Grant. Heres how that works.In
20、 the 1700s, the monarchy （王室）handed over income from land to the government known as the Crown Estate. Each year the government pays a percentage of the profits made on those possessions back to the monarchy. That annual income is known as the SovereignGrant. Last year it totaled more than $107 mill
21、ion. And it is used to fund the Queen9s official duties and maintain royal residences like Buckingham Palace.But even if we cant identify her exact worth, the royal finances are looking healthy as the Queen celebrates her 70th Queen Ceremony.

22、 is $466 million, up $6.2 million dollars from last year.

26、ies that allow manufacture （大量制 造）of materials using renewable electricity if net zero emission （并F放）targets are to be met, research led by the University of Leeds warns.Ensuring that no electricity is produced from fossil fuels by 2050 is vital for achieving net zero. However, its effect will be li
27、mited if industry cannot use this electricity. Steel manufacturing alone accounts for a tenth of all carbon dioxide （CO2） emission in industrialised countries but latest estimates suggest new technologies to manufacture steel using electricity will not become fully operational until at least 2040.Th
28、e lead author of the study, Dr Alan Grainger, from the University of Leeds School of Geography, said, Delays in replacing existing steel manufacturing capacity represent a crucial Mock in constraint （约束）on achieving net zero. Humanitys great dependence on steel, which accounts for 94% of all metal p
29、roduction, is a huge blockage that cannot be ignored. The UK Net Zero Strategy, published last week, recognizes this problem,but lacks detail on how to deal with it.Governments should strengthen international carbon reporting standards for energy-intensive industries, the paper says, so that total l
30、evels of CO2 production during the manufacture and lifetime of materials can be measured more obviously in assessing progress towards national net zero targets.

It is difficult to define. 16 For some people it means literature, music and art. Others define it as beliefs,
34、ways of behaving and the ideas of a particular group.Another broader definition says that it is all the knowledge and values of a society. Lord Raglan, a British soldier and author in the 20th century once famously said, Culture is roughly everything we do and monkeys dont.As you can see, there are
35、different definitions of culture as there are different societies. One useful starting point is the idea of two types of culture. They are culture with a capital C and culture with a small c. Culture with a capital C refers to music, literature and art. It also includes facts and statistics about a
36、national group or society. 17 A person is cultured if they know a lot about culture with a capital C.

37、fers to beliefs, values, traditions and the everyday life of a particular community. 19 In other words, they have lots of different cultures.

38、n more interested in culture with a small c. Example questions could include What time do Americans finish work? ” or “Do Germans shake hands or kiss when they meet each other?”20 Culture gives a person a special identity. Culture gives a community or a country a unique character. Whatever the defin
39、ition, culture plays an important part in everybodys life.A. How many definitions of culture exist?B. The USA and Britain are multicultural.C. Everybodys definition of culture is identical.D.
