一、浏览理解。

The story of Sir Nicholas Winton is the one that you would imagine

could only happen on the silver screen. Sir Nicholas Winton was a British

man who went to heroic efforts, potentially putting himself at risk,

during World War II. Sir Winton was responsible for ensuring the safety

of six hundred and sixty-nine Jewish children by aiding their escape from

countries occupied by Nazis. Finally, the Jewish children were brought

to England where he worked to make sure families in his native country

would help the kids by taking them into their homes.

Recently, this unbelievable story has again been making the rounds

on the Internet, particularly after a rerun of the BBC show called

“That’s Life”, which featured Sir Winton. People around the world were

moved at the details of the story, with saying it to be the best story

they’ve ever seen.

Sir Winton kept his entire plan completely secret, even his wife had

no idea about his planning until fifty years later. After the war, years

passed and many people remained in the dark about Sir Winton’s

extraordinary achievement. Some fifty years later, his wife Greta was

searching in their house and discovered a Winton’s notebook which

documented the names of all the children. She worked with BBC and they

produced a TV episode (插曲) of their program “That’s Life” that 2 served as an honor for Sir Winton’s work.

In 2003, Sir Winton was knighted by the Queen of England for his work.

He also was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. He also had a small

planet named after him by Czech astronomers. Sir Winton died peacefully

in his sleep at the old age of one hundred and six, in 2015. Leaders around

the world paid tribute (悼念). Israel’s ambassador to the United Kingdom,

Daniel Taub, said, “He was a hero of our time, having saved 669 Jewish

children from Nazis. His story, as a point of light in a period of darkness,

will forever be remembered.”

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。有人说，不看泰姬陵就不算到过印度。本文向读者介绍了参观泰姬陵的最好时间。

1．which 考查定语从句的引导词。所填词引导一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是The Taj Mahal，并且关系词在从句中作主语，故填which。

2．technically 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处修饰全部句子，因而用副词。technically表示“严厉来说”。
