The World Trade Organization (WTO), founded on January 1, 1995, aims to encourage international trade to flow as possible, making sure that trade agreements are respected and that any disputes can be settled.
In the five years since its founding, the WTO has become well known as one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations, taking its place alongside the World Bank and International Money Fund.
The system of global rules for international trade, however, dates back half a century to 1948 when the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade was formed after World War II.
As time went by, it became clear that the GATT had two major drawbacks-the limited areas of trade it covered, and the lack of an effective system to settle disputes.
After seven years of trade talks ending in 1994, the so-called Uruguay Round finally give birth to the WTO, complete with an effective system to settle disputes and new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property.
Even after seven years of talks and 22, 500 pages of agreements, there were still problems, especially the difficulty to deal with areas of agriculture and services, which the member nations agreed to revise in 2000. The WTO, with its head office in Geneva, has 135 members with 30 more waiting to join.
From the passage we know that the GATT stopped working ________.
A. soon after World War II ended
B. a little more than 50 years after World War II
C. just in the year 1994
D. seven years before the Uruguay Round talk
Compared with the GATT, the WTO _______.
A. didn’t pay enough attention to services and intellectual property
B. got its members to sign the agreements more easily
C. has got to many areas of international trade to deal with to work effectively
D. can do better to settle disputes in more areas of international trade
In the new century the WTO will ________.
A. take the place of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund
B. have more members and settle more problems
C. make complete new rules in every area of international trade
D. have new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property

When several different people look at the same person, it is not unusual for each of them to see different things; when you alone observe one behavior or one person at two different times, you may see different things. The following are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions（感知，感觉）: k+s-5#u
Each person’s perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning, education, and personal experience.
Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what we’ve observed. It is not necessarily true that person’s perception is based on observations of a particular person. Your observations may be totally controlled by some. Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person; or you may focus primarily on the situation or role relationship. Most people do not use the same yardstick（尺码） to measure their parents, their friends, and strangers.
Sometimes we see only what we want to see what may be obverse（正面的）to others because of our own needs, desires, or temporary（临时的） emotional states. This is a process known as selective perception. Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory（相反的） information is particularly obvious, but it can be done. We can ignore the stimulus（刺激）—“He’s basically a good boy, so what I saw was not shoplifting（入店行窃）.” We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information —“All kids get into mischief（顽皮）. Taking a book from the bookstore isn’t such a big deal.” We call change the meaning of the contradictory information—“It wasn’t shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later.”...
Why might the observation of the same person by two people at the same time differ?
A．Because they are from different family.
B．Because they have different opinions.
C．Because their yardsticks are not the same.
D．Because their thoughts are different. k+s-5#u
According the passage, our perceptions are formed by ________.
A．our own cultural conditions, education and experience
B．our own thoughts, aims and knowledge
C．the society’s rules, laws and needs
D．the society’s values, standards and requires
From the passage, we know _____ causes us to think a boy’s shoplifting isn’t serious.
A．our kindness B．our experience
C．the society’s require D．selective perception
What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．It mainly talks about the results of different perceptions.
B．It mainly talks about the factors that lead to different perceptions. k+s-5#u
C．It mainly talks about the kinds of perceptions.
D．It mainly talks about the yardsticks.
