In an Internet era, whether globalization means democracy and development or hindrance to progress, foreign interference and U.S.-led economic domination over the developing countries has evoked hot debate.Globalization is an inevitable tendency which has brought great opportunities such as exchange of knowledge and information, access to other societies, as well as economic competitions and exposure to different value systems. On the other hand, it is also accompanied by a multitude of challenges together with side effects on the form. of increased poverty rates, but the effect is not always predetermined, because the problem is how to deal with it and make preparation for minimizing the challenge.Statistics demonstrate in the last two centuries the individual income average has decreased, and the shares of profit in the Third World also have demolished, in contrary to the developed world. There is an international distortion due to the exploitation of telecommunication technology which facilitates money transfer, which made it easier for capital flight. During the last two centuries, the number of civil wars has increased and the world became under the control of globalization and economic reform. which eventually led countries like Indonesia to be bankrupted. This year in Seattle, over 40,000 young demonstrators protested against capitalism and its "brutality" during meetings of the World Trade Organization. Two hundred protesters against globalization were arrested and hauled many away in buses after they ventured into a downtown security zone, where police had restricted movement and imposed a curfew."Globalization is an expression repeated by international media, which is trying to polish it for us to only see the bright side to it. We have to beware of the motives behind this ideological expression and the influence of this expression on our destiny. Globalization has proven that it is nothing but corruption and the world is against it", said Dr. Hisham Gasseib, professor of Sumaya University.If globalization is forced itself on any nation, it is considered occupation, because it wipes any culture or education and instead reflects poverty and unemployment. The high competition made a huge number of people live on the edge which forces them do anything to gain money, and eventually put their countries under control of other countries. Globalization is like a flat character with no dimensions, a challenge for all nations. Nations with great cultural background should not accept any gesture from the West without thoroughly studying it.What"s the main idea of the article？
A．Globalization brings great opportunity to all the nations in the world.B．The developing countries sh6uld resist globalization because it will harm their economy.C．Globalization is both an opportunity and a challenge, all the countries must study it carefully before they accept it.D．Globalization will harm those countries that own great cultural background more than those that haven"t.

• In some ways, the United States has made spectacular progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough. American fire departments are some of the world"s fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan"s population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire-safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in disproportionately large numbers in fires but who, contrary to popular myth, start very few of them.Experts say the fatal error is an attitude that fires are not really anyone"s fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime. Japan has many wood houses; of the estimated 48 fires in world history, that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Penalties for causing a severe fire by negligence can be as high as life imprisonment.In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But the lessons are aimed at a too limited audience; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.The United States continues to rely more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building codes now require home sprinklers. New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that______.
  A．They took no interest in new technologyB．they did not attach great importance to preventing firesC．they showed indifference to fighting firesD．they did not spend enough money on fire facilities
