问题 综合

结合材料,完成下列各题。

材料1:祖国的两大宝岛,都是旅游天堂。4月2日,台湾旅行商同业公会一行抵琼,开始为期5天的旅游考察。

材料2:台湾岛面积近3.6万平方公里,海南岛面积3.4万平方公里。2000年,台湾人口2228万,海南人口787万。

(1)海南省隔       海峡与广东省相望,省会是        。

(2)台湾和海南相比,人口密度较大的是       

(3)根据河流流向判断,海南岛的地势特点为:       

(4)简述台湾城市的分布特点:       

(5)海南岛正大力推进国际旅游岛屿建设,你认为以下不适合在海南发展的行业是(   )

A.水产养殖   B.海洋运输   C.钢铁冶炼    D.热带经济作物基地

(6)台湾考察团带回了很多物产,不属于海南本地的是(    )

A.椰子    B.菠萝      C.梨子      D.橡胶

(7)海南岛的旅游资源与东南亚许多国家类似,试从气候方面分析原因:

(言之有理即可)。请你为琼台合作交流提一条建议:(言之有理即可)。

答案

(1)琼州 海口   

(2)台湾   

(3)中间高、四周低   

(4)沿海分布 

(5)C  

(6)C

(7)两地都位于热带地区或者全年高温 建议:略

题目分析:

(1)从图中看出,海南省北隔着琼州海峡与广东省隔海相望,其省会是海口市。 

(2)由材料二可知,台湾的人口密度为:2228÷3.6≈619人/平方千米,海南的人口密度为:787÷3.4≈231人/平方千米。所以,与海南相比,台湾的人口密度大。

(3)从图中看出,台湾岛上的河流由中东部流向西部,由此可以判断,台湾岛的地势特点为:中东部高西部低。 

(4)从图中看出,台湾城市多分布在西部沿海地区,因为台湾岛的西部是平原,地形低平。 

(5)海南地处热带,四周濒临海洋,因此适合在海南发展的行业是水产养殖、海洋运输、热带经济作物基地等,该岛原料短缺,且是旅游天堂,故不适宜发展钢铁冶炼,本题选C。 

(6)海南省属于热带气候,盛产热带作物,如椰子、菠萝、橡胶等,而梨子属于暖温带水果,不可能产自海南,故本题选C。 

(7)海南岛的旅游资源与东南亚许多国家类似,主要原因是因为两地都位于热带地区,或全年高温;台湾有技术优势和资金优势,海南有人力资源和矿产资源,可以效仿珠江三角洲与港澳的合作模式。

问答题

At a board meeting of JGP Chemicals Limited, the directors were discussing some recent negative publicity arising from the accidental emission of a chemical pollutant into the local river. As well as it resulting in a large fi ne from the courts, the leak had created a great deal of controversy in the local community that relied on the polluted river for its normal use (including drinking). A prominent community leader spoke for those affected when she said that a leak of this type must never happen again or JGP would suffer the loss of support from the community. She also reminded JGP that it attracts 65% of its labour from the local community. As a response to the problems that arose after the leak, the JGP board decided to consult an expert on whether the publication of a full annual environmental report might help to mitigate future environmental risks. The expert, Professor Appo (a prominent academic), said that the company would need to establish an annual environmental audit before they could issue a report. He said that the environmental audit should include, in addition to a review and evaluation of JGP’s safety controls, a full audit of the environmental impact of JGP’s supply chain. He said that these components would be very important in addressing the concerns of a growing group of investors who are worried about such things. Professor Appo said that all chemical companies had a structural environmental risk and JGP was no exception to this. As major consumers of natural chemical resources and producers of potentially hazardous outputs, Professor Appo said that chemical companies should be aware of the wide range of ways in which they can affect the environment. CEO Keith Miasma agreed with Professor Appo and added that because JGP was in chemicals, any environmental issue had the potential to affect JGP’s overall reputation among a wide range of stakeholders. When the board was discussing the issue of sustainability in connection with the environmental audit, the fi nance director said that sustainability reporting would not be necessary as the company was already sustainable because it had no ‘going concern’ issues. He said that JGP had been in business for over 50 years, should be able to continue for many years to come and was therefore sustainable. As far as he was concerned, this was all that was meant by sustainability. In the discussion that followed, the board noted that in order to signal its seriousness to the local community and to investors, the environmental audit should be as thorough as possible and that as much information should be made available to the public ‘in the interests of transparency’. It was agreed that contents of the audit (the agreed metrics) should be robust and with little room left for interpretation – they wanted to be able to demonstrate that they had complied with their agreed metrics for the environmental audit. Required:

(c) Defi ne ‘environmental risk’. Distinguish between strategic and operational risks and explain why the environmental risks at JGP are strategic. (10 marks)
