Write a short passage of 150-200 words in English on the topic “My Comment on the Fourth Choice .”You should c over the following points : !.what the fourth choice is ;2.What you agree on with the author and reasons for your agreement ;3.What you disagree on with the author , if any , and your explanation .My Comment on the Fourth ChoiceThe fourth comment is to change the world gradually , one clod at a time . Maybe at the first glance it is not inviting . It lacks glamour . It has no quick result . It demands patience . It depends on the exasperating and uncertain instruments of persuasion and democratic decision making .I think the author is right . Reforming the world is a little like fighting a military campaign in the Apennines , as soon as you capture one mountain range, another one looms just ahead . The problems are the same , too. Once some problems are brought under some kind of rough control , new problems take place . So we can’t solve all the problems at a time . We have to deal with one problem each time and change the world gradually and steadily . So problems can be handled in the same way that hard problems have been coped with before –piecemeal , pragmatically ,by the dogged efforts of many people . so I think in this particular time and place the fourthchoice offers a better chance for remedying some of the world ‘s outrages than any other available starategy .Lesson Three The Use of ForceBy William Carlos WilliamsA.Answer the following questions on the text :1.why wasn’t the sick child in bed ?2.why were the girl’s parents eyeing the doctor up and down distrustfully ?3.What made the girl refuse to open her mouth to the doctor ?4.Why did the doctor insist on examining her throat ?5.Why was the doctor not able to see her throat since he already had the wooden tongue depressor into her mouth ?6.How did the doctor finally g et see the girl’s throat ?7.Did the girl’s physical beauty have anything to do with the outcome of the incident ?Explain .8.Can you find any fault with the doctor’s behavior?Key A,1.Because it was damp there .2.Because they were the new patients to him and they were nervous .3.She didn’t want others to know that her tonsils were covered with membrane.4.Because the doctor took a trial shot that the girl might have diphtheria.5.Because she gripped the wooden blade between her molars and did n’t open her mouth to let the doctor have a look .6.The doctor overpowered the child’s neck and jaws , forced the heavy silver spoon back of her teeth and down her throat till she gagged .7.Yes , it did .

So he smiled to the girl and asked her to open her mouth and let him have a lookat her throat . No matter how the doctor coaxed , the girl shut her mouth firmly .Thinking that the girl might have diphtheria and possibly die of it , the doctor decided to use force to open her mouth . He had seen at least two children lying dead in bed of neglect in such cases . He felt that he must get a diagnosis now . So he grasped the girl’s head with his left hand and tried to get the wooden tongue depressor between her teeth . But when the doctor got the wooden spatula behind her last teeth . She gripped the blade between her molars and reduced it to splinters . In the final unreasoning assault the doctor outerpowered the girl . He forced the heavy silver spoon back of her teeth and down her throat till she gagged . Her both tonsils were covered with membrane.From that the doctor had done , I thought he was a responsible person .

Others of a less romantic and more practical turn of mind say that it isnt love; its money. But the truth is that it is energy that makes the world go round. Energy is the currency of the ecological system and life becomes possible only when food is converted into energy, which in turn is used to seek more food to grow, to reproduce and to survive. On this cycle all life depends.(2)It is fairly well known that wild animals survive from year to year by eating as much as they can during times of plenty, summer and fall, storing the excess, usually in the form. of fat, and then using these reserves of fat to survive during the hard times in winter when food is scarce. But it is probably less well known that even with their stored fat, wild animals spend less energy to live in winter than in summer.(3)A good case in point is the whiter-tailed deer. Like most wildlife, deer reproduce, grow, and store fat in summer and fall when there is plenty of nutritious food available. A physically mature female deer in good condition who has conceived inNovember and given birth to two fawns during the end of May or first part of June, must search for food for the necessary energy not only to meet her bodys needs but also to produce milk for her fawns. The best milk production occurs at the same time that new plant growth is available. This is good timing, because milk production is an energy consuming process-it requires a lot of food. The cost cannot be met unless the region has ample food resources.(4)As the summer progresses and the fawns grow, they become less dependent on their mothers milk and more dependent on growing plants as food sources. The adult males spend the summer growing antlers and getting fat. Both males and females continue to eat high quality food in the fall in order to deposit body fat for the winter. In the case of does and fawns a great deal of energy is expended either in milk production or in growing, and fat is not accumulated as quickly as it is in full grown males. Fat reserves are like bank accounts to be drawn on in the winter when food supplies are limited and sometimes difficult to reach because of deep snow.(5)As fall turns into winter, other changes take place. Fawns lose their spotted coat. Hair on all he deer becomes darker and thicker. The change the hair coats is usually complete by September and maximum hair depths are reached by November or December whenthe weather becomes cold.(6)But in addition, nature provides a further safeguard to help deer survive the winter-an internal physiological response which lowers their metabolism, or rate of bodily functioning, and hence slows down their expenditure of energy. The deer become somewhat slow and drowsy. The heart rate drops. Animals that hibernate practice energy conservation to a greater extreme than deer do. Although deer dont hibernate, they do the same thing with their seasonal rhythms in metabolism. Deer spend more energy and store fat in the summer and fall when food is abundant, and spend less energy and use stored fat in the winter when food is less available.(7)When the energy crisis first came in 1973-1974, I was living with my family in a cabin on the edge of an area where deer spend the winter in northern Minnesota, observing the deer as their behavior. changed from more activity in summer and fall to less as winter progressed, followed by an increase again in the spring as the snow melted. It was interesting and rather amusing to listen to the advice given on the radio: Drive only when necessary, we were told. Put on more clothes to stay warm, and turn the thermostat on your furnace down. Meanwhile we watched the deer reduce their activity, grow a winter coat of hair, and reduce their metabolism as they have for thousandsof years. It is biologically reasonable for deer to reduce their cost of living to increase their chance of surviving in winter.(8)Not every winter is critical for deer of course. If the winter has light snow, survival and productivity next spring will be high. But if deep snows come and the weather remains cold for several weeks, then the deer must spend more energy to move about, food will be harder to find, and they must then depend more on their fat reserves to pull them through. If such conditions go on for too long some will die, and only the largest and strongest are likely to survive. That is a fundamental rule of life for wild, free wandering animal such as deer.(9)Yes, life-and death, too-is a cycle that goes round and round, and when animals die their bodies become food for other life forms to use by converting them into energy.(10)And the cycle continues.According to the author, what makes the world go around is ______.A.loveB.truthC.moneyD.energy2、Judging from the text, the time a doe takes from conception to birth is around ______.A.ten monthsB.five monthsC.a yearD.seven months3、According to the author does eat food in order to ______ in summer.A.deposit body fatB.produce milkC.meet their bodies' needsD.all of the above4、Fat is accumulated most quickly in ______.A.young female deerB.young male deerC.full grown female deerD.adult male deer5、According to the author, in winter the white-tailed deer will not ______.A.have darker and thicker hairB.hibernate for some timeC.drop heart rateD.become slow and drowsy6、If the winter has light snow, more deer will survive because______.A.they can find enough foodB.people can help them easilyC.they depend less on their fat reservesD.they need little energy7、According to the author, death is also a cycle because ______.A.the dead bodies can be converted into energyB.the body is dead, but the soul lives longC.death only means going to another worldD.all of the above8、In the text, the reason why the radio says" Drive only when necessary "is that ______.A.there was too much snow out of the doorB.the first "energy crisis" cameC.the road was smooth for the iceD.it's too cold to go out9、If the winter is very cold and long ______ are likely to survive.A.fawnsB.doesC.the largest and strongest deerD.bucks10、The most suitable title for this passage is ______.A.Deer's lifeB.How deer survive in winterC.Deer and the energy cycleD.The life and death cycle参考答案：【一、单项选择题】1~5CDDAB6~10ABCCA11~15点击下载查看答案【二、阅读题(一)】1~5DDDDB6~10CABC11。

(高等英语上)Lesson Fourteen I Would Like to Tell You SomethingBy John F. KerryA. Answer the following questions on the text :1. Who took part in the Detroit investigation ?2. What did the participants tell at the investigation ?3. What was the purpose of their telling about the war crime in Vietnam ?4. Who should be held responsible for war crimes ,according to the author ? Do you agree withhim ?5. What did the author want the writer for a national magazine to write about ?6. Why did the chairman of the large firm refuse to give financial aid to the veterans ?7. How were the American soldiers made insensitive to war crimes the US army committed inVietman ?8. What made the author say that Agnew’s statement made at West Point was a distortion ?9. How were the veterans treated back in the US ?10. What are the main things that the author wishes to convey to the reader ?Key A1. Over 150 honorably discharged veterans took part in the Detroit investigation .2. The participants told war crimes committed in Indochina .3. They wanted to prove that the policy of the United States in Indochina was tantamount to genocide . They wanted to show that you didn’t start making things right by prosecuting William Calley and there was not just one Mylai but countless Mylais and they were continuing everysingle day .4. According to the author , not only the soldiers are responsible for the war crimes , but also everyone here in America who has allowed the brutalization and depersonalization to go on is responsible . Yes , I do .5. The author wanted the writer for a national magazine to write the story of war the Americanpeople should have heard .6. Because the chairman of the large firm did not think the author could market war crimes and itwas nothing new of what they had done .7. At boot camp the American soldiers were presented with a poster in the barracks of a crucifiedVietnamese and underneath it says , “　k ill the gooks. “They w ere trained to jump up and yell“　k ill !”at the end of the four-count of calisthenics . Before they departed for Vietnam , thesergeant took a live rabbit , skinned it ,tore it open and pulled out the entrails . He ordered them todo the same to the Vietnamese .8. It was a distortion because the veterans in no way considered themselves the best men in this country , because those he called misfits were standing up for them in a way nobody else in this country dared to , because so many who died would have come back to join the misfits , and because so many had actually returned to this country to demand an immediate withdrawal from Vietnam.9. They were unemployed and received little care when they were back in the U.S.10. The author wants to convey to the reader the true story of the war and the American policies were the cause of the war . The author also wants to tell the reader the reasons that the veterans are against the war .B. Translate the following into Chinese :1. over 150 honorably discharged veterans , many of them highly decorated ,testified to war crimes committed in Indochina.2. The investigation was not staged so that veterans could spill out their hearts or purge their souls .3. Everyone here in America who has allowed the brutalization and depersonalization to go on is responsible .4. If you don’t cover the war you don’t sell magazines , and if you don’t sell magazines then nothing happens because that’s the American way .5. But what this country doesn’t know is that America has created a monster in the form of millions of fighting men who have been taught to deal in violence , and who have been given a chance to die for the biggest nothing in history .6. Now we are told that we have to watch quietly while the American lives are lost so that we can exercise the incredible arrogance of Vietnamizing the Vietnamese .7. The problem of the veteran doesn’t just end with his anger.8. Then suddenly one day he woke up in Vietnam and he found himself doing to the Vietnamese exactly what had been done to his people and what he had been conditioned by America to applaud .Key B1. 150多名光荣退役的老兵,其中许多人曾被授予过各种高级别的勋章,证明了他们在印度支那犯下的战争罪行.2. 这项调查并不是为了让老兵们倾吐心声,净化灵魂.3. 允许这种残忍/失去人性的行为继续进行的每一个美国人都应该负责任。
