PART ONE: Comprehension & Interpretation of the text
A /Reading. Read the following text carefully then do the activities.
China is one of the world's oldest continuous major civilizations, with written records dating back at least 3,500 years, and with 5,000 years being commonly used by Chinese as the age of their civilization. Successive dynasties developed systems of bureaucratic control, which gave the agrarian-based Chinese an advantage over neighbouring nomadic and mountain-dwelling cultures. The development of a state ideology based on Confucianism (100 BC) and the forced imposition of a common system of writing by the Qin emperor (200 BC) strengthened the Chinese civilization. Politically, China alternated between periods of political union and disunion, and was occasionally conquered by external ethnicities, of which many were eventually assimilated into the Chinese identity. These cultural and political influences from many parts of Asia as well as successive waves of immigration and emigration merged to create the familiar image of Chinese culture and people today.

TOPIC2: PART ONE.
A/ Reading and Interpreting.
The United Nations has sent out a warning that up to fifty per cent of prescribed medicines sold in developing world pharmacies are fake. A report from the International Narcotics Control Board, the UN drugs watchdog, said:” fake medicines are flooding into poorer countries”. It stated that the consequences of people taking these drugs can be deadly. It also warned that the trade in fake prescription drugs may soon overtake the trade in illegal drugs. Many of the resources of the world’s law enforcement agencies are focused on hard drugs like heroin and cocaine. The UN suggests a refocus so that poor nations can fight the trade in counterfeit prescription drugs. The biggest problem for developing countries is that their laws are too old to control the flood, especially for sales over the Internet and those delivered by mail.
The UN warns that many people will die as a result of taking the fake drugs. The counterfeiters very cleverly copy the details on the packaging and labelling of the medicine and ensure all tablets and pills look identical to the real thing. However, the fake medicine is often a dangerous cocktail of chemicals that can kill or cause serious injury. The UN’s report said: the fake drugs “expose patients to serious health risks by providing access to…medicines that are ineffective, substandard and, in some cases, even lethal.” The UN’s Philip Emafo said: "Gains over the past years in international drug control may be seriously undermined by this ominous development if it remains unchecked". He warned that many discount medicines in stores or online often seem to be authentic but turn out to be made from recipes posted on the Web.
