Of all the voices raised in protest to the Stamp Act, none had greater effect than that of a young lawyer from Virginia -Patrick Henry. Henry had only recently been elected to the Virginia Assembly. Yet when the Stamp Act came up for discussion, he opposed it almost single-handedly. He also expressed, for the first time, certain ideas that were held by many Americans of the time but that never before had been stated so openly. "Is life so dear or peace so sweet, as to be bought at the price of chains and slavery？ Forbid it, Almighty(万能的 ) God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"

A Long and Expensive War
By the Treaty of Paris of 1763, which ended the war with the French and the Indians, England gained possession of Canada and all the territory east of the Mississippi River. French influence on this continent thus came to an end; England now controlled most of North America. But the war had been long and expensive. England had many debts. George Ⅲ, King of England, after consulting with his advisers, decided that the American colonists (殖民者) should help pay some of the expenses of this war. A standing English army of 10,000 men had been left in the colonies(殖民地)for protection against the Indians. The English government also felt that the colonists should share in the expenses of maintaining this army. The result was a series of measure, the Grenville Program, passed by Parliament and designed to raise money in the colonies. Some of these measures were accepted by The colonists, but one in particular, the Stamp Act, was met with great protest. The Stamp Act required that’s tamps, ranging in price from a few cents to almost a dollar, be placed on all newspapers, advertisements, bills of sale, wills, legal papers, etc. the Stamp Act was one of the causes of the American Revolution. It affected everyone, rich and poor alike. Some businessmen felt that the act would surely ruin their businesses.

Mad Cow Disease in Canada
For years, Canada had been virtually free of mad cow disease. But in May 2003, veterinary officials in Alberta confirmed that a sick cow sent to a slaughterhouse in January of that year had been inspected, found to be substandard, and removed so that it would not end up as food for humans or other animals. The carcass was, however, sent to a processing plant for rendering into oils. Its head was kept for testing. Samples were sent to the world testing laboratories in the U. K. , which confirmed the case of mad cow.
"What is important is that the system worked," said Shirley McClellan, Alberta's agriculture minister at the time. "We have a very thorough and respected inspection system." She was insistent to remind the public that the disease is not contagious within a herd. But McClellan's assurances didn't stop the U. S. , Japan, South Korea, Australia and other countries from imposing temporary import bans of Canadian beef. Quick Facts
Canada has close to 13.5 million cows and calves.
About 5.7 million (or 42 percent) are in Alberta.
Canada's total beef exports amount to $ 2.2 billion annually, and have risen sharply in recent years.
Since 1991, beef exports have risen from 100,000 tons to about 500,000 tons.
Growth in exports has been greatest to Japan, South Korea and Mexico.
Alberta's share of total beef exports is 39 percent (worth about $ 860 million a year).
In an investigation into the source of the infection, 1,400 cows were slaughtered and tested for the disease. No other cows were found to have BSE until late December 2004. Western premiers demanded $ 360 million compensation from the federal government for losses to the beef industry because of the mad cow scare. Ottawa would later offer $190 million.
Over the summer of 2003, cattle ranchers held barbeques across Canada to help pro mote Canadian beef. In August, the U. S. reopened its borders to some Canadian beef, but the border was still closed to live cattle. By this time, a cow that would have normally sold for $1,300 was selling for $15. Canadian beef producers asked Ottawa to approve a mass slaughter of 620, 000 cattle to reduce the size of the herd and prevent further damage to the industry.
In October, it was reported that the border would reopen to live cattle in December 2003. But on Dec. 23, 2003, the U. S. announced that it had discovered its first apparent case of BSE in a cow in Washington State. Several countries banned beef from the U. S. soon after the announcement, but Canada restricted imports only on some products made from cattle and other ruminants. It still allowed the import of cattle destined for immediate slaughter, boneless beef from cattle under 30 months of age and dairy products.
DNA evidence later revealed that the cow was born in Canada, and the U.S. kept its border shut to live Canadian cattle. On Dec. 29, 2004, The USDA announced that it recognized Canada as a "minimal--risk region" for BSE and imports of young Canadian cattle would resume March 7, 2005. The new classification means the U. S. will not again close its borders to Canadian beef unless there are two or more cases of BSE per one million cattle older than 24 months of age in each of four consecutive years. Simply put, Canada can have up to 11 cases of BSE and still be considered a safe country for cattle exports. The move came less than a month after U. S. President George W. Bush made his first official visit to Canada and said the process for reopening the border was underway.
However, five days before the ban was to be lifted, a U. S..judge granted a temporary injunction to stop the reopening of the border. The ban came at the request of a group of American ranchers called R-CAI.F, who filed a lawsuit saying reopening the border would cause irreparabl

So severe was the disruption (破坏) in New York State that its governor, George Pataki, declared a state of emergency. Confused workers spilled on to the streets, while thousands more were trapped for hours in lifts and hot, crowded subway trains. Lots of stranded (进退两难的) people ended up spending Thursday night on New York's streets. Thieves in Brooklyn in New York, and in Canada's capital, Ottawa, took advantage of the absence of streetlights and burglar alarms, and went on a looting spree (疯狂抢掠). Officials were taken aback by the speed at which the chaos unfolded. President George Bush described the incident as a "massive national problem" and promised a full investigation into what caused it.
That is still a matter of some debate. At first, naturally, there were fears of terrorist involvement, but this was quickly ruled out. However, officials were left arguing about what had actually happened. The office of Canada's prime minister, Jean Chretien, said that a severe accident at a nuclear-power plant in Pennsylvania may have been the cause. Earlier, American and Canadian officials had said a fire or perhaps lightning had hit a power plant near Niagara Falls in New York State.

A、Ottawa

B、 disruption
C、 massive national problem

A、Many streetlights and burglar alarms were stolen during the blackout.

4、It can be inferred from the passage that____.
A、France has a population of about 60 million.
B、Only some large cities were affected by the power failure.
C、 Canada's prime minister knew what had caused the power failure.
D、Water was spilt onto the streets by confused workers.
