Is war unavoidable Can war be prevented
History tells that there were wars,great or small,in every century,in every decade.Throughout the ages,from the Stone age to the Atomic Age,men have been fighting,first with swords and shields(盾),then with guns and cannons,and now,hydrogen bombs and missiles are used for military purposes.But,in spite of all these,it is still my belief that war can be prevented and peace can be won,but it requires the effort of every one of us.
I am sure that we would not like to experience another world war.If it ever happens,two-thirds of the world and much of the civilisation which men have gained through time,patience and effort will be destroyed.Will then the remaining one-third of the world be able to survive on its own
Our task now is not to blame the past,but to plan for the future.
If there is peace in the world,men can use their rockets to explore the mystery of space,their submarines to explore the depth of the sea,their missiles to deliver mails and their fine equipment to penetrate(穿透) the jungles of Africa,instead of using them military.
Governments can use their money to build more schools,so that more children can be educated to be useful citizens.Scientists can use atomic energy to propel (推动) steamships and planes.They can also design new machines to increase the production of goods and thus improve the way of living of the people.
How can a peaceful world be achieved It requires,in my opinion,the understanding and friendship between all people from all nations.Let no one suffer discrimination by reason of colour,race,religion,or national origin.Let the rich support the poor and the strong help the weak.
We know that neither peace nor such a dream world can come true in a day or a month.It may even take decades or centuries.But let us plan and begin now.
1.The best title for this passage is .
A.The Past and the Future
B.To Die or To Survive
C.War and Peace
D.Understanding and Friendship
2.In the writer’s opinion, .
A.it is too difficult to achieve peace
B.peace can be won through the efforts of all human beings
C.another world war is inevitable
D.wars will always exist in the world
3.We can infer from the passage that .
A.wars were not expensive in the past
B.wars can promote the development of weapons
C.things for military use can be transformed to peaceful use
D.as long as there are wars,people’s way of living cannot be improved
4.Which word can best describe the writer’s picture of the future of the world
A.Optimistic.
B.Pessimistic.
C.Imaginative.
D.Disappointing.

In April,1967 my brother,Harvey Cooley,met a soldier,David Lawson during basic training.In their free time,they hung out together.As the weeks went by,they grew very close,almost like brothers.However,after basic training,soldiers moved on to advanced training.They thought they would never see each other again.
One day in September,1967,these men were both in California waiting for transport to the front.Harvey and David had an unexpected surprise when they ran into each other.They talked very briefly since they had got to report in five minutes.They agreed to meet after they were discharged(退伍)from the service.Harvey wrote a brief note which he gave to David showing the date and location they were to meet.
Harvey never made it back home.He died while saving two soldiers during enemy fire.David did not learn of Harvey’s death until the mid 1980s.He wrote a letter to Harvey after he returned home and asked if they could postpone their meeting to a later date.His letter was unanswered.David felt then that Harvey must not have made it back.He knew Harvey would surely have answered his letter if he had been able to.
While David was searching the Internet for Information about Harvey,he found a poem dedicated(献给) to Harvey by me.He sent me an email and told me about his friendship with Harvey and we swapped phone numbers.
David called me and we talked about his friendship with Harvey.While on the phone with David,I learned about the note Harvey had written for him.David still had the note and sent me a copy of it.
It is amazing,to say the least,that David was able to track me down.Even more amazing is the fact that he still had Harvey’s note after all these years.David told me it was a joy to finally hear about Harvey through me after over forty years.
5.What did Harvey and David decide to do after they met unexpectedly

Do you know some surprising innovations (创新) came from World WarⅠ Here are some introductions to you.
1.Daylight Saving Time

4 .British army surgeon Harold Gillies and his colleagues performed more than 11,000 operations,mostly on soldiers suffering from facial wounds from gunshots. 5 .

Howard Weistling wanted to be a comic strip artist.But when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor,he joined the Army.
After flight engineer training,Howard was shipped off to Europe.On his maiden flight,his plane was shot down over Austria.The entire crew of eight men landed safely.But a farmer found Howard hiding in his barn and turned him over to a prison of war camp in Barth,Germany.It was freezing and the men almost starved to death eating the guards’ garbage.
Hungry and homesick Howard coped the only way he knew how.He drew a comic strip.The book,made of cigarette wrappers bound together with scrap metal,was sent around the camp.Every couple of days he would add a new panel.One panel at a time would be passed around the whole camp.And they’d have something to look forward to.
After an entire year of this,they woke one morning to find their guards gone.They fled and Howard finally got to go home.Just lucky to get out alive,he left the book behind.
Back home in California,Howard soon had a wife and kids to feed so he had to set aside his dream of becoming an artist.He took a job as a gardener instead.
Morgan shared his father’s artistic gifts.At 15 his parents sent him to art school.And Howard got to see his son become a well-known painter before he died in 2002.That’s how,seven decades after the war,when a stranger in New York googled the name “Weistling”,he found Morgan online.
“I get an email from a gentleman and he says,‘I think I may have some drawings your father did when he was a POW (prisoner of war) in World WarⅡ,’” Morgan recalls.“‘Would you like them ’And I just stared at that email and started crying.”
Luckily Howard had engraved his name on the comic book,which is how the man from New York City had connected with Morgan.A couple of days later when it arrived in California, Morgan couldn’t believe it.“It was like getting my father back,” Morgan says.“It was like him being able to tell me the story over again—only this time it was real in my hands.”
1.The passage details Howard’s life as a POW to show that .
A.war cannot stop his pursuit of success
B.passion for art helped ease his sufferings
C.loss of freedom encouraged his creativity
D.misery drove him to fight against his fate
2.What can we infer about Howard’s comic strip in prison
A.It satisfied prisoners’ curiosity.
B.It aroused the guards’ sympathy.
C.It was popular among the prisoners.
D.It raised prisoners’ confidence in freedom.
3.What contributes to the stranger’s success in finding Morgan
A.The email from a gentleman.
B.Howard’s experience in the war.
C.Morgan’s recalling of his father.
D.Morgan’s status in the field of art.
4.What can we infer about Morgan from the last paragraph
A.He didn’t believe the stranger’s story.
B.He was excited to get the comic strip.
C.He couldn’t wait to tell others his good news.
D.He hadn’t heard about his father’s war stories.

Every morning,when my alarm goes off,I wake from my slumber and hit the snooze button.Then I crawl back under the quilt to grab a few more minutes of shut-eye.“Tonight I’ll go to bed early,” I tell myself.But,evening comes and I get a second wind,completely forgetting about my early night.Why am I finding it so difficult to get a good night’s sleep And is it a problem
The amount we sleep has declined over the years and insomnia(失眠) is on the rise.Modern technology is often blamed.The light from our smartphone affects levels of melatonin—the sleep-inducing hormone—keeping us wide awake into the early hours.
Lack of sleep can badly affect our health and memory.We need deep sleep to move our memories from short-term storage into long-term storage.If we don’t get enough sleep,we could lose these memories.This is especially disastrous for people studying for exams.
So,how can we learn to sleep better For Professor Till Roenneberg,it’s important for people to recognise they have an internal body clock.This determines whether you are a night owl,an early bird or somewhere in the middle.We don’t have any choice.“It’s like feet,” he said.“Some people are born with big feet and some with small feet,but most people are somewhere in the middle.” Our work schedules are out of sync with our natural sleep patterns.He says this leads to “social jetlag” where people feel like they are constantly in the wrong time zone.
Paul Kelley — a sleep expert from the University of Oxford—says that most people are getting up too early.He believes work and school should start a few hours later.Many companies are starting to realise more sleep can mean a more productive workforce and are changing work schedules.While in some countries,office workers are heading to relaxation parlors at lunchtime to take power naps in hammocks or massage chairs.This is much healthier than catching forty winks while sitting on the toilet or dropping off at their desks.
So,if like me you find yourself hitting your snooze button every morning — don’t feel bad.It’s just our body clocks!
