　　The report came to the British on May 21,1941. The German battleship Bismack, the most powerful warship in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. Her task: to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war-torn England.

　　The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismack in speed or in firepower. The Bismack had eight 15-inch guns and 81 smaller guns. She could move at 30 nautical(航海的) miles an hour. She was believed to be unsinkable.

　　However, the British had to sink her. They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismack. On May 24, the Hood found the Bismack.

　　It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to stay away from a fight with British warships.

　　The battle didn't last long. The Bismack's first torpedo (鱼雷) hit the Hood, which went down taking ell but three of her 1,419 men with her.

　　But in the fight, the Bismack was slightly damaged. Her commander decided to run for repairs to France, which at that times had been taken by the Germans. The British force followed her. However, because of Bismack's speed and the heavy fog, they lost sight of her.

　　For two days every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismack, but with no success. Finally she was sighted by a plane from Ireland. Trying to slow the Bismack down so that their ships could catch up with her, the British fired at them from the air. It was hit.

　　Do you know what to look for when you watch dance? A great dancer can take your breath away．The following are four qualities to look for the next time you attend a dance performance．

　　1．Turns and Leaps(跳跃)

　　Turns and leaps are exciting to watch because they are difficult to perform．When watching a dancer turn, try to count the number of rotations(圈)completed．The more turns, the harder they are to do properly．Watch how the turns are brought to a complete stop-does the dancer lose her balance as she stops? Does she take extra little steps, or come to a clean, sudden stop?

　　When it comes to leaps, height definitely adds a lot to the enjoyment of watching dance．But more important than the height of a leap is the dancer a ability to maintain a pose for a brief moment in mid-air．Watch also how ell the dancer controls the landing．

　　2．Speed

　　Faster dancing is usually, although the slow movements in ballet are also quite challenging．It takes a lot of practice to get many steps completed in a small amount of time．

　　3．Extension(伸展)

　　Extension refers to the height to which a dancer can stretch her legs into the air．For the average person, observing a dancer laying her leg alongside her head is truly remarkable．When observing extensions, watch for pointed toes and straight knees．They are less difficult with bent knees．

　　4．Expressions

　　A great dancer has the ability to make difficult steps appear simple．Every move a dancer makes should be completed with ease and appear enjoyable, even though it is at times very painful．Watch a dancer’s facial expression as she dances．Is she smiling with every hard landing? A great dancer’s movements will be spectacular, but appear to be so easy that you will want to see them over and over again．

1．What is the best title for the passage?(no more than 5 words)

2．What should you pay attention to when you are watching a dancer turn?(no more than 10 words)

3．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words．(no more than 3 words)

4．What does the underlined word“They” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?(no more than 3 words)

5．Complete the following statement with proper words．(no more than 3 words)

A great dancer is able to make look easy to do．
