Allen Cook and his daughter Melissa were renovating(整修) her house, when they found a beautiful, heart-warming love story. “The envelope in the ceiling was old and yellow. It had never been opened, It was unbelievable when my son-in-low started reading it. In the letter she was talking about the baby she was going to have,” Allen Cook said.

The story began in May 4, 1945, the typed letter was written by a woman named Virginia to her husband, Rolf Christoffersen. At the time, he was a sailor in the Norwegian navy. The envelope was marked “return to sender” and never found its way to her husband. Allen’s daughter used the Internet to find the phone number of someone named Rolf Christoffersen and gave him a call, leading her to his son in Santa Barbara, California.

“Someone called me at my office. They just googled my name because I have the same name as my father. Melissa asked me where I grew up and I told her. She told me she had the letter,” Christoffersen’s son, 66 now, said. The younger Christoffersen wasn’t yet born when his mother Virginia wrote the letter, but he said her words were very special to him. His mother, who died six years ago, wrote about her love for her husband.

“I love you Rolf, as I love the warm sun, and that is what you are for my life, the sun about which everything else revolves around me,” she wrote. Seventy-two years later, her words were finally heard by her husband. Christoffersen immediately called his father, who is now 96. And read the letter to him over the phone. “I was so surprised after all these years. I was very emotional,” the elder Christoffersen said.

The long-lost letter was finally received just before Mother’s Day; it was another tangible connection to Virginia Christoffersen. “It’s Mother’s Day and reading her words reminded me just what a wonderful person she was and how much she loved us” her son said, through tears.

1.The envelope found by Allen and his daughter ________.

Beware of those who use the truth to deceive. When someone tells you something that is   36, but leaves out important information that should be 37, he can create a false impression.

For example, someone might say, “I just 38    a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and     39 it in for one hundred dollars!”

This guy’s a winner, 40? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred 41, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big 42!

He didn’t say anything that was 43, but he deliberately left out some important  44. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically 45, but they are just as not 46.

Untrustworthy candidates in 47 campaigns often use this tactic（策略，手段）. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and 48 three million jobs. Then she 49 another term. One of her opponents runs an ad  50, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. 51, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of 52million jobs.”

Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s 53 the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the 54. An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It 55 to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.

This kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Coral reefs(珊 瑚 礁)are not just beautiful to look at，but also very useful．They shelter nearly 25％ of ocean life and provide food for billions of people．However, like many other species，this amazing ecosystem(生态系统)is in danger of dying out!

There are two main reasons for the destruction—the rising carbon dioxide levels caused by global warming as well as human influences like bottom operation．While not much can be done about the former，the loss caused by the latter can be reduced．

Bottom operation involves dropping nets to the ocean bed and then dragging them up when filled with fish．This action damaged the ocean floor，causing the coral branches to separate from the reefs．While that is very discouraging，the good news is that if these branches are found quickly，they can be saved．At present，that work is being performed by volunteer divers. But the method has only limited success because they cannot stay long underwater, nor reach depths of over 200 meters where some of the deep-sea coral grows．

However，this is not the case for Coral bots—the robots that can constantly seek out broken branches．A team of ‘coral bots’，each individually working to simple rules will piece together’ damaged bits of coral, allowing them to regrow. They are programmed to be able to distinguish between other things and the coral．The robots work together in groups，similar to bees．If one coralbot is damaged then the others will still be able to complete the task．

Dr Lea-Anne Henry said：“The project of using coral bots offers us the possibility to restore(修复)the function of reefs．It is in the final stage of testing．Once ready, the researchers hope to build hundreds of them and use them effectively in the waters off Scotland and then hopefully in the oceans across the world．”

1.Which of the following is a cause of the danger that coral reefs are facing?

A．The appearance of new creatures．

B．The seriously polluted sea water．

C．The activities of volunteer divers．

D．Human activities like bottom operation．

2.Compared with volunteer divers，coralbots ______________．

A．can stay longer underwater

B．must work as bees do

C．can distinguish what is coral

D．can never be damaged

3.What does the underlined word“them”in the last paragraph refer to?

A．Coralbots．　　　　　 B．Broken branches．

C．working bees．　　 D．Bits of coral．

4.We can infer from the passage that _______________．

A．bottom operation has affected most underwater creatures

B．broken branches of coral can regrow if saved in time

C．hundreds of the coralbots have worked well in the oceans

D．with the coralbots all damaged coral reefs can be restored
