听力原文:W: Hello.
M: This is Mr. Jackson. Could I speak to Dr. Wang, please?
W: Speaking. How's that new bridge, Mr. Jackson?
M: Not so good, doctor. That's what I'm calling about. It just doesn't seem to fit right.
W: Well, that's to be expected during the first few days after it has been put in. As I told you, there will be no complications.
M: It hurts so much, especially when I eat. I keep removing it afterwards, you know.
W: I understand, Mr. Jackson. It does hurt in the beginning, I know. But it would be better if you didn't remove it, except when cleaning it, of course.
M: Well, I did at first, doctor, but my gums hurt so much that I just can't stand it any longer.
W: Well, maybe we can adjust it a little more.
M: Adjust it?
W: Yes, file it down a little here and there. When can you come in?
M: Oh, right away, doctor, if you don't mind.
W: I'll check here now. Maybe I can find the time for you this morning.
M: Oh, I can wait until this afternoon if you're too busy now.
W: Sorry, Mr. Jackson, but I'd rather you'd come this morning if possible. This afternoon I'm teaching a class at the dental school. Just a minute, Mr. Jackson, can you get here at about 11:30? That will give us enough time before lunch. We'll see what we can do.
M: Oh, yes, doctor. I can make it. Thank yon. See you then.

The agency unveiled its proposal hours after Senate Democrats introduced their version of the global warming bill that passed the House in June, and as international climate negotiators gathered in Bangkok, Thailand, to prepare for global warming treaty talks in Copenhagen in December. The EPA and Senate actions stoked(激起 ) optimism among environmentalists and others. Some had voiced concern that reaching agreement in Copenhagen could be difficult if the Senate failed to act, because other countries might conclude that the United States was not prepared to take the steps it has urged other developed nations to take. Both the new Senate bill and the EPA's proposed regulations address that concern. "We are not going to continue with business as usual while we wait for Congress to act," EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson told a climate conference in Los Angeles.
She said that the proposal "allows us to do what the Clean Air Act does best: Reduce emissions for better health, drive technology innovation for a better economy, and protect the environment for a better future, all without placing an undue burden on the businesses that make up the better part of our economy." Senators also were aware of the global implications. "We're geared to move this and hopefully get it to the floor before the Copenhagen summit." said Sen. John F. Kerry, who co-wrote the climate bill with Sen. Barbara Boxer. "I think we're going to make it."
The EPA rules would mimic how the agency forces power plants and factories to install "scrubbers" and other means of limiting many types of air pollutants. But it's unclear exactly how it would apply to greenhouse gases, which scientists blame for climate change. Researchers are innovatively investigating commercial-scale methods to capture and store carbon emissions from coal plants, for example. The new proposal follows one announced by President Obama and automotive executives in May to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from cars and trucks. The automotive regulations, which would take effect in 2012, stemmed from a 2007 Supreme Court decision that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are pollutants subject to regulation under the Clean Air Act.
Therefore, the EPA said, it was required to control greenhouse gases from industrial sources too. Industry groups disputed that logic. The latest proposal must move through a lengthy process of comments and reviews, and will probably encounter legal challenges.
What does "We are not going to continue with business as usual while we wait for Congress to act" mean by Lisa Jackson?
A.The Senate failed to carry out reaching agreement in Copenhagen.
B.The United States is not prepared to take measures.
C.The United States forces the developing countries to take steps.
D.The EPA will not just wait for government's decision to carry out action.
