一、英譯中:Translate the following passage into Chinese(30分)
Arecent article by Christopher Flavelle, a Washington-based climate reporter,
notes that Americans by substantial margins support much stronger building
codes and even outright bans on new construction in flood- and fire-prone
zones. Eighty-four percent of people surveyed supported mandatory building
codes in risky areas, and well over half supported outright bans. One
interesting aspect of these findings is that a majority of Republicans favored
tougher rules. That’s surprising because Republicans tend to be much more
skeptical about global warming than Democrats and, more to the point, much
more hostile to government regulation.

三、英文作文:Write an English essay in 250-300 words(40分)
In “The Elusive Ethics of Leaking,” Mark Fenster observes, “Traditional leaks
of limited quantities of information—a small cache of documents or an off-
the-record conversation, for example—have long been staples of investigative
journalism. Journalists have responded to official protests and the threat leaks
can pose to national security by developing widely-accepted practices for how
best to verify leaks’ authenticity and manage the risks they create for the
leakers as well as for the government and public” [Georgetown Journal of
International Affairs 18.3(2017): 113]. In your essay, please discuss what
these “widely-accepted practices” should be and how journalists should apply
them without violating the ethics of publishing leaks. Specifically, please
address the issues of what leaks ethical journalists can expose and how they
should deal with leaked information.
