What's the best title for this passage? A. To join the World Trade Organization B. China has been ranked first among developing countries in drawing foreign investment C. China, still "safe island " for overseas investors D. To loosened its restriction on foreign investment E It' s interesting that the arrival of snow has effect on people in different countries. For some countries it is-an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a catastrophe or even a wonder. But there are countries between these two kinds that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply causes problems. Within hours of the first snowfalls, however light, roads are blocked, trains and buses have to stop in the middle of the way. Normal communication is affected as well: telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. And almost within hours, there are also certain shortages-bread, vegetables and other things-not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go out and store up with food and so on-just for fear that something bad should happen. But why does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, the Austrians and the Canadians don't have such problems. It is simple because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow-ploughs and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow-ploughs is that they are used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospital, education, helping the old and so on. 查看更多
