看完了，也没看出题意在哪儿。

<p><strong>Last Stop, Lhasa: Rail Link Ties Remote Tibet to China</strong>
</p><p><br/>By JOSEPH KAHN<br/>Published: July 2, 2006</p><p><br/>BEIJING, July 1 — This weekend, China opened the world's highest railway, a 710-mile line that crosses the vertiginous Tibetan Plateau and forges a steel bond with the once-secluded Buddhist holy city of Lhasa.</p><p>The railway, inaugurated on Saturday by President Hu Jintao and top Communist Party cadres on a deluxe opening run, is an engineering marvel that traverses unstable permafrost and reaches more than 16,000 feet above sea level, higher than Mont Blanc in France.</p><p>Party officials have hailed the $4.1 billion project, which was decades in the making, as a milestone in its efforts to develop its vast, poor western region and bring an infusion of people and prosperity to remote Tibet.</p><p>But Tibetan and foreign critics say that the railway benefits Han Chinese, China's dominant ethnic group, at the expense of Tibetan natives. They argue that enhanced transportation links will accelerate a trend of Han-led economic development and smother Tibet's ancient spiritual culture, while undermining the pristine natural environment of its highlands.</p><p>"The overwhelming opinion among Tibetans is that the railway will consolidate Chinese control and bring in huge numbers of Han Chinese," said Tenzin Tsundue, an independent Tibetan writer who lives in India. "It will mean less employment and more destruction for Tibetans, not more opportunity." </p><p>On Friday, three women from the United States, Canada and Britain were detained briefly after they climbed through a second-floor window at Beijing's main train station and unfurled a black-and-white banner that read, "China's Tibet Railway, Designed to Destroy." </p><p>Chinese officials defend the railway as vital to stimulating Tibet's development. They project it will double tourist revenues and reduce the cost of cargo transport by up to three-fourths.</p><p>"The completion of the Qinghai-Tibet railway is a significant piece of good news longed for by the people in Qinghai Province and the Tibetan Autonomous Region," Zhu Zhensheng, executive vice director of the Qingzang Railway Office of the Chinese Railway Administration, said in a news briefing this week. "The railway provides capacity for the quick flow of people, goods and information and will directly contribute to the development" of the area.</p><p>Mao proposed extending a railway to Tibet after the People's Liberation Army invaded the territory and brought it firmly under Chinese control in 1951, sending the Dalai Lama, Tibet's spiritual leader, into exile.</p><p>The first section, from Beijing to Golmud in Qinghai Province, was completed in 1984. </p><p>But the 710-mile section connecting Golmud to Lhasa was delayed indefinitely. That section had to cross the Tibetan Plateau, survive extreme temperatures and stay fixed in the shifting permafrost of the highlands.</p><p>The plan was revived in 2001, when it was promoted as a crucial element of the Communist Party's Go West campaign.

<p>哪位老大翻一下啊 </p>
好问,顶!!!!
<p>我们只做有利于中国的事，与美欧何干？</p><p>别理他，让历史说话！</p>
删除的也太多了吧？
<p>On Friday, three women from the United States, Canada and Britain were detained briefly after they climbed through a second-floor window at Beijing's main train station and unfurled a black-and-white banner that read, "China's Tibet Railway, Designed to Destroy." </p><p>这三个女人应该抓来给予特殊待遇，临时拘留太便宜她们了。</p>
浆糊啊,我没太看明白是什么意思,如果文章是这样讲的话就很普普通通了,简单介绍一下它国的事情很正常啊?[em06][em06]
