　　I have to say that am shocked at just how bad the new music is．This cannot be the same band that produced great albums such as HTDAAB and ATYCLB!This is awful!They either do not care anymore, or have completely lost it．I never thought U2 would become irrelevant, but they have officially become one of those bands that you will now say,“Remember when they were great?”

　　－Posted by Ronald Harris

　　Total drivel, Mr Harris．The new album is great, far better than the safe, cynical HTDAAB and ATYCLB．U2 have become inventive again, like they were in the 1990s．thank goodness!

　　Agree, Dan．The new album is the best since Actung Baby．Magnificent is an anthem in the waiting, Breathe is unbelievable, and Stand Up Comedy is absolutely outstanding－to name just three!Loving the new sound, pure class as usual．

　　Totally agree with you guys．This album is unbelievable．Breathe is definitely a great song, same with Moment of Surrender．I bet their upcoming tour will be amazing．If you haven't bought the CD yet, you should．I bought mine on Amozon.com for ＄3.99．I couldn't believe it．

　　China news, Beijing, Feb．9–Housing price in China has always aroused heated discussions among property developers and ordinary Chinese．To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low compared with many developed countries．However, the average housing price in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States．This shows that there are some bubbles(泡沫)in Chinese real estate market, the International Finance News reported．

　　Although the average price of residential houses in the United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses．If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter．In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US．

　　The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubbles．Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities．Furthermore, it should be noted that American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people．How can the Chinese afford to buy a house which is even more expensive than that sold in US?

　　At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public．Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate(控制)the real estate market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans and lands to property developers．At the same time, the government should allow people to build more houses through various fund-raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units．By applying these multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered．

(1)

What is the average housing price per square meter in China?
[　　]
A．	8000 yuan．
B．	10000 yuan．
C．	7000 yuan．
D．	It’s not mentioned here．

(2)

Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States?
[　　]
A．	Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities．
B．	American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people．
C．	The houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses．
D．	The population who need houses in China is larger than in the United Stated．

(3)

How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce the high housing prices?
[　　]
A．	Four．
B．	Three．
C．	Two．
D．	One．

(4)

What is the main idea of this passage?
[　　]
A．	The housing price in China is so high that the government should do something useful to prevent it．
B．	There are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market．
C．	The average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States．
D．	Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public．
