My father was Chief engineer of a merchant ship, which was sunk in Word War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.

Memories

In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him sale.

Then I remember my mother lying lace down, sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo(鱼雷).

I can remember the arrival of the telegram(电报),Which in those days always brought had new. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe, Love Ted.”

My most vivid memory Is being woken and brought down to sit o my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage.

He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.

Ten years later I read Night of the U-bouts and was able to complete the story.

Torpedo

One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.

By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck fast. When he tried to cut it free it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.

Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.

In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean rind a wait for rescue? Lest（以免）we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills（读写能力）. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ).

The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department.

Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.

The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April. According to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.

1.．What is mainly discussed in the text?

A．A special reading program. B．Advantages of raising dogs.

2.Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think ________.

A．dogs are young children’s best friends

B．dogs can provide encouragement for shy children

D．children and dogs understand each other

3.By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea,” the writer means the library ____________.

A．accepts the idea put forward by ITA B．uses dogs to attract children

C．has opened a children’s department D．has decided to train some dogs

4.A “pawgraphed” book is most probably _________.

A．a book used in Saturday classes B．a prize for the children

C．a book written by the children D．a gift from parents

Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors (统治者) and generals and soldiers, while the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year, or manured (施肥)a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers.

People think a great deal of them, so much that on all the highest pillars (纪念柱)in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages（野蛮人）; so to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently — this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done — is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off greater number of the other side, and then saying that the side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but, because it has won, it has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that power is right.

This is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or mutilated (disabled). And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets — while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life — nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.

1.In the opening sentence, the author indicates that .

A．most history books were written by conquerors, generals and soldiers

B．history book tell us far more about conquerors, generals and soldiers than actual creators of civilization

C．those who rally helped human civilization forward is not mentioned in history books at all

D．conquerors, generals and soldiers should be least mentioned in history books

2.According to the passage, most people believe that the greatest countries are those that .

A．built the highest pillars for their conquerors

B．were ruled by the greatest number of conquerors

C．won the greatest number of battles against other countries

D．were beaten in battle by the greatest number of other countries

3.In the author’s opinion, the countries that conquered a large number of other countries are

A．certainly both the most powerful and most civilized.

B．neither the greatest nor the most civilized in any way.

C．possibly either the most civilized or the most powerful in a way.

D．likely the most powerful in some sense but not the most civilized.

4.The meaning of the last sentence in Paragraph 2 is that .

　　A．fighters believe that the winner is right and the loser wrong.

B．only those who are powerful have the right to go to war.

C．those who are right should fight against those who are wrong.

D．only powerful nations might win the right to rule weak ones.

A weather map is an important tool for geographers. A succession of three or four maps presents continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts (气锋) to determine whether an individual pressure aroa is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity (强烈).They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a summary picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.

All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately.Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms, floods, frosts and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day"outlook" which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an anaiysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for development of air masses, fronts and storms.

Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather

predictions, with identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological (气象)stations. Extensive experiments are also in progress for weathef modification studies.

1. One characteristic of weather maps NOT mentioned by the author in this passage is_______.

A. floods B. fronts C. temperature changes D. frosts

2. The thirty-day forecast is determined by examining________.

A. daily weather maps B. upper air levels

C. satellite reports D. changing fronts

3.The observation of weather conditions by satellites is helpful because it________

A.is modern

B. uses electronic instruments

C. makes weather prediction easier

D. shows things that would otherwise take hours to describe in a few minutes

4.A weather map is a summary because it_______

A. sums up a great deal of information B. appears daily

C. shows changing fronts D. is a science book

5.You may possibly read this article in_________.

A. a magazine B. newspaper C. a novel D. a science book
