Questions 29 to 30 are based on the following news.

(29) An American general says President Obama’s plan to start withdrawing troops from Afghanistan next July is encouraging Taliban insurgents¹. The head of the U. S. Marine² Corps³ General James Conway said that after that date the insurgents would find U.S. forces still attacking them.  “If you accept that marines will be there after 2011，what’s we gonna say then? So what we gonna say to his foot troops were you got the leadership outside the country trying to direct the operations within becaue it’s too dangerous for them to be there and foot troops. I have been believing what you are saying that all believe that in the summer of next year comes worse still hammering like we have been. I think it could be very good for us in the context in terms of the enemy’s psyche⁴.” (30) The BBC correspondent said that the General’s comment suggests there may be a debate between American politicians and generals over how quickly security responsibilities can be handed over to Afghan forces.
