听力原文: British Prime Minister Tony Blair appeared to be in favor of a push for a second
U.N. resolution to endorse military action against Iraq. He said, here in London on Monday, the earlier resolution demanding Iraq disarm made a convincing case for tough action. At the United Nations, U.S. and British diplomats said the two countries have planned a new resolution and will introduce it to the U.N. this week, probably on Wednesday. Some European leaders also gave the American military buildup in the Persian Gulf credit for forcing Saddam to work with U. N. weapons inspectors. However, U. N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan stressed that he did not want the weapons inspections to go on too long, suggesting the threat of action had to be real to preserve the body's credibility.
