　　Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

　　What is terrorism?

　　In a growing number of conflicts around the world, one or both sides　attempt to label the other as “terrorist” in an effort to win support for their own causes. Yet as the so-called “terrorists group” often proclaim, a clear distinction between a terrorist　action and a non-terrorist military operation is frequently difficult to establish. Most governments argue that terrorism is defined by violent methods to achieve political ends which are undertaken by organizations not recognized by the world community as legitimate representatives of a nation; furthermore, random acts of violence, like attacks on school buses or shopping centers, are labeled as “terrorist”. Political organization as the IRA(Irish

　　Republican Army) and the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization)　have been dubbed(称为) “terrorists”, by the governments of England and Israel because of their tactics and their non-official statuses as representatives of accurately defined nations. In the case of the PLO, however, its election to power under Yasser Arafat has now　confused its former recognition as terrorist. Even the IRA is　earning status as an authentic opposition voice to the continued　presence of British troops on Irish soil.All this simply highlights the problems of separating what is a　legitimate political organization with “the right” to employ　violence to achieve political ends from so-called terrorist groups.　Inseparable from this issue is historical precedence(地位先后) and the　degree of power and prestige an organization or nation has on the　world stage. For example, while most independent observes would　agree that the IRA setting off a bomb in a London subway station　confirms its notoriety, they would be less certain that Israel’s　recent bombing of a refugee camp is equally “terrorist”, despite the　fact that many more innocent people were killed and injured in the　latter incident than in the former. This raises the question, though　certainly not for the first time, whether legitimate, even　democratically elected, governments are also capable of terrorist　action. Is there always a clear moral distinction between the　behavior of normally respected nations and that of “rogue”(流氓)　organizations? What does seem clear from these reflections is not　that terrorist actions are in any way justified, but that the use of　such labels is sometimes based on a political need rather than on　superior moral or ethical grounds.
